What's your strategy?

Letter BoxedEnglish • 1 year ago

I’ve been doing the crossword, spelling bee, and wordle for a long time, but I just started doing letter boxed about a week ago. Any tips to help me get better?

I always tried to get the uncommon letters out of the way early. For example, if you see a J, your first word should almost certainly start with a J.

Don’t put the answer in the title!

You can give a clue in the title of your post, but please don’t ruin the game.

Spoiler tag your solutions.

There are two ways to do this, take your pick:

1. NSFW your screencaps.

NSFW blurs images so answers aren’t revealed automatically when you load the front page.

(This is a workaround since Lemmy doesn’t support spoiler-tagging image posts.)

2. Use the body spoiler code.

If you don’t want to NSFW the whole post, you can spoiler within the body text and put your solution there. Here’s the format:

::: spoiler spoiler

![](https://link.to.image.com/example.png)

You can upload your screencap directly into the body text. Just hit the picture icon in the formatting bar and it will insert that second line of code for you. So all you have to enter manually is the ::: spoiler spoiler at the top.

(I understand this is a bit fidgety, so if you’d rather just stick to the NSFW method for now, that’s perfectly fine.)

Thanks and enjoy!
