Abstract
In this missive, the author goes about ruining an online word guessing game called Wordle, by generally trying to mathify the whole thing. On the other hand, one might consider that the author is trying to spice up mathematics by applying it to an online word guessing game. Also, a spoiler warning: don't read past page 9 if you want to retain that Wordle magic.
