Yesterday was Wordle on Wednesday and I gave you this little brain bench to solve before resolving the Daily Wordle. Below, I will give the answer.
Magic Rope Brain-Teaser:
An ancient alchemist tried to try his most promising apprentice. One night, he put two strange ropes on the table in his lab.
“These ropes,” the alchemist explained, “they are enchanted, if you illuminate either a fire from every end, it will burn completely in exactly an hour, but be careful …”. Unfortunately, he whispered, holding one of the ropes to show how he grew up thick and then thin, then viscous. “They don’t burn evenly.”
The alchemist leaned closer, reducing his voice. “Now here’s my challenge to you: With only these two ropes and a flame. Show me how you can count exactly forty -five minutes.”
He passed back, his hands folded, waiting for the apprentice to be resolved.
Answer:
The apprentice was studying the ropes and then hit the flint in steel.

First, it lights on rope A on both ends and rope B at one end – all at the same time. The alchemist set a eyebrow, but he said nothing.
The minutes dragged from. Rope A, burning from both ends, was devoured at an unpredictable rhythm – but because the fire ate on both sides, the apprentice knew one thing with certainty: when the rope was over, just 30 minutes had passed.
The last Ember of Rope one suddenly. “Half an hour,” the apprentice mumbled and lit the other end of the rope b.
Now rope B burns from both ends. Whatever remained from a rope B -in, paradoxically, it would be consumed in half of the time it would take if it was burned at one end. Since rope B had already been burned for 30 minutes, the burning from both ends would end in 15 minutes.
When Rope B finally disappeared in ash, the apprentice looked at.
“Thirty minutes, then fifteen,” he said, dusting his hands. “Just forty -five minutes.”
The alchemist smiled. “Well done.”
And that, dear readers, is the answer. Let’s solve this wordle!

How to play Wordle
Wordle is a daily word puzzle game where your goal is to guess a five -letter hidden word in six attempts or fewer. After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you approach the answer:
- Green: The letter is in the word and at the right point.
- Yellow: The letter is in the word, but at the wrong point.
- Gray: The letter is not at all in the word.
Use these indications to limit your speculations. Every day it 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, Wordle Bot or even against me, your humble narrator. See rules for competitive wordle towards the end of this post.

There is no indication where the mouse came for my guess, but it seemed like a pretty good choice. Unfortunately, 137 words remained. The stain, however, made the trick, reducing this number down to only one: separated for victory! If you haven’t played it yet, one of my favorite video games of the year is Separated fiction, An extremely fun and imaginative co-op game that everyone who loves the game must play.
