The website, called Paraulògic, went viral in Catalonia a month after its launch. The same concept was adapted to the Catalan language by a non-profit in November 2021. Several online tools have been created to provide daily hints and analysis of the puzzle, among them one by science fiction author William Shunn. In addition to its reception among critics, the game has also spawned a significant following on social media, with players posting their scores and discussing each day's word selections on Twitter.

If the player finds all of the possible words in a given puzzle, they achieve the title of "Queen Bee". Each puzzle is guaranteed to have at least one pangram, which awards the player the largest number of points when found. Scoring points leads to progressively higher praise for the player's effort, such as "Solid", "Amazing", and "Genius".

The New York Times Spelling Bee, or simply the Spelling Bee, is a word game distributed in print and electronic format by The New York Times.

Then assign a key to the 7 letters in the same way and look for matches. The basic idea is to start with a word list and assign each word a key. It turns out to be straightforward and easy so I’ll devote the rest of this post to showing how I did it with Elisp. Naturally this caused the nerd in me to rise up and I started thinking about how I could automate the search. A quirk of my mental makeup makes me pretty good at it but sometimes I can’t find the answer. I don’t have the time for that but I do like to see if I can find the pangram. Working the puzzle is an open ended process because you never know when you’ve found all the words. A word that contains all 7 letters is called a pangram and earns extra points. You can read the exact rules at the link but the TL DR is that you’re given 7 letters and have to make as many words as possible from them, possibly repeating letters. At the end of the summary, they always have the day’s Spelling Bee puzzle.
#NYT SPELLING BEE PANGRAM REGISTRATION#
I had to register with the NYT to be able to read them and one side effect of that registration is that every morning I get a short news summary emailed to me. From time to time I find a reference to a New York Times article in my feed.
