Forbes' latest Wordle challenge is a riddle that has left many solvers scratching their heads. The answer 'choice', when you have one - it's none. In other words, having only one choice often means not having any choices at all.
This week's bonus custom Wordle is 6 letters long and begins with a vowel. As per the hint, we are all doing this when solving Wordles: thinking, planning, and strategizing to find the hidden five-letter word.
The game's rules are simple - guess a word, and the game will provide feedback in the form of green, yellow, or gray squares. A green square indicates that the letter is correct but not in the right position, while a yellow square means the letter is in the word but not in the correct spot. A gray square signifies that the letter is neither in the word nor in the correct position.
To play Wordle, you can start by guessing a five-letter word and receive feedback from the game. You have six chances to guess correctly before running out of attempts. The game also offers competitive mode where you can challenge friends, family, or even Forbes' Wordle Bot.
In today's Wordle, the starting word was SLATE for the bot, but human solvers like ourselves began with STALE and later made some crucial guesses that led to the answer - GUESS! This week, we tied with the Wordle Bot in terms of points and overall performance.
As a bonus, Forbes has included another custom Wordle challenge that you can try out.

i know rite? 1 choice = no choices lol. 
. sl ate didnt work so st ale was the way to go, and then i started thinkin 'guess' is a pretty good answer lol. but congrats on gettin 2 points w/ the bot its like... whoa 
i mean, have you seen it? 6 letters long and starts with a vowel lol what even is the point of all these vowels?? 
anywayz, i love how they're giving us that competitive mode to play against our friends and family. my sister and i went head-to-head and i got totally destroyed 
but it was so much fun! 
!! The hint is so vague and it's driving me crazy 
. But, I did hear that some people started with SLATE instead of STALE, who knew? 
. And, wow, beating the Wordle Bot is a big deal! 
I'm gonna try to beat it myself and maybe get a spot in the leaderboard 
. Anyone have any tips or strategies that can help me out? 
. But for real tho, it's kinda funny how it said we're thinking, planning, and strategizing... like, yeah no kidding! We're all just over here going "okay, next guess, gotta try something new!" 
. Can someone pls give me another hint so I can stop scratching my head? 
It's like, I know there's only one 'G' and everything else is a mystery... gotta keep trying! 
. It makes me wanna play this Wordle game again, wanna see if I can get to that GUESS! 
u think its 'choice'? idk man... having only one choice is literally not a thing cuz when u have no choices u gotta do what u gotta do, u feel? 
i love the hint about thinking planning and strategizing though it's def true for me every time i play wordle 
.
... but what really impresses me about this game is that even with all the tech involved, human solvers can still give it a run fer its money 
...
it's just the same old thing every day. first off, who thought 6 attempts was enough? can't we have like, an eternity to get it right? 
and have you noticed how they always start with some vowel just to mess with us? 
guess I'll have to dust off my thinking cap 
but it's also super satisfying when you finally figure out the answer
