Yes, for about a week now. Mostly 4 and an occasional 3. Haven't managed a 2 yet. --Bob

Played yesterday for the first time. When I was trying to find the "real" one, I downloaded an app that does the same thing.

Today's word on the app was FJORD. I got it in 2. Completely lucky guess after only having the "R" on the first guess.
