WordleBot got smarter

I still do Wordle everyday and usually I like to check what they think of how I did thanks to Wordlebot. This morning I noticed it had a new feature to look at my recent results and not just that day's. Not a huge improvement, but nice to have a history feature for looking back at my past Wordles finally.

Back to Dwarf Fortress

With the week off of work, this morning I was seized by a desire to play Dwarf Fortress again. So, goodbye spare time!

I'm pleasantly surprised that I didn't lose my Desert Golfing progress when I switched to Volo.

Been thinking about doing this for a while, but I do a fair number of mini games as part of my daily habits. I'm going to start collecting the results here. I might build out a more robust tool for it, but for now, this will do.

My Morning Brain Exercises

NYT Mini Crossword - One of the first things I do every morning online. It's quick and easy. It takes me usually less than 2 minutes to complete.

Chess.com Puzzles - For a free account on Chess.com, I get access to seven chess puzzles a day. And I do them religiously. I like their system and find their puzzles to be of very high quality.

Wordle - The reality is I rarely do this in the morning, but that is only because I tend to do it during the brief periods I awake during the night. Taking the dogs out or seeing to other personal needs.

Wiki History Game - A very new addition, this puzzle drops people, things and events and you have to put them in chronological order. It's less of a puzzle and more of a thinking exercise, which I am enjoying.

Chimp Test - I don't do this one daily, and I usually wait until my brain is a bit more warmed up before I attempt it. But this works my working memory and takes some active effort to try and get the highest score I can possibly do. My all time high is 14, with my average usually being 11 or 12.

1D Chess

A fascinating thought experiment. I struggle to call it a game but I found it quite interesting to explore how this simple "game" is played.

Just had my best round of Geoguessr ever. 24,216 (out of 25,000) points. No googling or searching, just spent a fair bit of time clicking through the maps. Definitely got lucky that none of them were rural middle of nowhere locations.
