It's Wordle Wednesday, ladies and gentlemen, and this week I'm not forgetting the extra puzzle! Every week, on Odin's Day, I hand out an extra riddle, brain-teaser or logic-puzzle to spice things up. Last week I forgot and ended up posting it on Thursday. In any case, before we get to the Wordle, here's your Wordle Wednesday extra challenge.
Looking for yesterday's Wordle? Get some hints, clues and the answer right here.
Four men sat down to play, they played all night till break of day,
They played for gold and not for fun, with separate scores for everyone,
When time came to square accounts, they each had made quite fair amounts
So answer me this paradox, how each man gained when no man lost?

Wordle is a daily word puzzle game where your goal is to guess a hidden five-letter word in six tries or fewer. After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you get closer to the answer:
Use these clues to narrow down your guesses. Every day brings a new word, and everyone around the world is trying to solve the same puzzle. Some Wordlers also play Competitive Wordle against friends, family, the Wordle Bot or even against me, your humble narrator. See rules for Competitive Wordle toward the end of this post.

Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
STALE was a bad opener today. Very unlucky. Just one yellow 'E' and 329 remaining solutions. MOUND wasn't a very good follow-up, leaving me with a whopping 51. Thankfully, GRIEF slashed that to just two: FIERY and KEFIR. I felt like FIERY had already been a Wordle (though I'm not sure this is true) so I went with KEFIR. Lucky for me, that was the Wordle!Erik: 2 points
Wordle Bot: 7 points
The word kefir comes from Russian кефир (kefír), borrowed from Turkish kefir, which likely derives from the North Caucasian (possibly Ossetian) word kef meaning 'foam' or 'bubbles,' referring to the drink's effervescence. It entered English in the late 19th century via Russian descriptions of the fermented milk beverage.
