I made a game in the shape of a waffle and it is called "waffle" wafflegame.net

@wesbos We get ~15% less players of our daily word game just on that one day, each year.

Happy npm install chart dip day to those who celebrate

@RLRude Oh, I'm sorry to hear that Rebecca! What device do you use?

@JamesJessian Hi. I play your game daily. Your recent change to the game has made it much more difficult for me as the tiles are much smaller now. When I tried to zoom in, the game played erratically. Any chance we could get the board back at its old size?

@ItsDaniLyn Oh! Sorry to hear this Dani. Send me a DM to @thatwafflegame and I'll try and work out what's going on.

@JamesJessian I bought you a waffle. 🙂 I got my email to verify and remove the ads and backup my stats. When I click the link it says verified and return to game but I still have ads. 😕 Can you help? Thanks!

@s73v3r Oh dear. That's not intentional! Could you please send me a screenshot?

@ferzalAU What word was it?

@JamesJessian Might want to get a better dictionary check. Second game in and finding a prefix as a word. Common in these things unfortunately. They should only use genuine words. Not prefs, sufs, colloq, propers or abbreviations. Crosswords can do that by stipulation. Not this.

Told my husband I’m playing Waffle more than Wordle these days and I’ve never seen someone look so betrayed

@kathadu Aw, thanks!

@notesofbarry Awesome 👏

Come see how you can use VS Code with #ibmi! ☀️

Did you know you can work with your IBM i (AS/400) directly from VS Code? Neither did we! Liam Allan from @IBM is here this week to walk us through modernizing #developer tools! Set a reminder and join us ⏰ aka.ms/code-livestrea… #vscode #COBOL #RPGLE #IBMi @notesofbarry

@wesbos Oh wow, I wrote a puppeteer script to do this too! I thought I was original 😂 Although my Lambda is scheduled to run at midnight (as site changes each day) and store in S3. It also POSTs to card validator hoping that makes Twitter clear their cache. wafflegame.net

Last thing: These images are being generated in HTML/CSS, screenshotted with puppeteer, and stored in serverless function memory as base64 - no image hosting at all. Other than puppeteer upgrades, I've had zero issues with this approach in over two years youtube.com/watch?v=g7sfRH…

Anyone see a change in Twitter card images lately? My site is broken, and twitter card validator isn't picking up image tag. Example: wesbos.com/uses Run $(`[name="twitter:image"]`).content to get the URL Facebook picks it up fine

@hill_jean_marg Ahh thank you! Keenly noted! I'm happy to make that edit.

@JamesJessian Hi James, love the game! My sister gets 5* nearly always now! Only gripe is it's 15 moves or 'fewer' not less. Anything countable is fewer. 😉

@notesofbarry I just thought of it, but I am very proud of it 😁

@JamesJessian hilarious 😂 feel like you've been holding onto that one for a while

just ordered this absolutely badass. nokia.com/phones/en_gb/n…

@notesofbarry That could be fun

@JamesJessian If you did a waffle clone or wordle clone will you open source it? Would love to see that

@notesofbarry Ah. You're just going to have to start work on your own music streaming platform then. IBMiTunes 😂

@JamesJessian turns out KaiOS doesn't support streaming DRM content from Spotify. Looks cool in the browser at least

@notesofbarry That is very cool 👏

@JamesJessian well i did actually make a start and it works and plays music!!

@notesofbarry Nice. I could get Waffle and a Wordle clone working on it. You'd just have to go easy on the dependencies with that 512MB 😅

@JamesJessian the api for building apps is nice and simple developer.kaiostech.com/docs/developme…

@DaddyCheese @thatwafflegame 😂

@thatwafflegame (rolls eyes) any word game worth its salt etc… :o)

Sorry about the gitch we've had for the last few hours! Those timezone changes weren't fully baked. I've made a fix. Let me know if you are still getting any problems!

@jamesjurassic65 Wow! Oh poo, sorry, I may be bit too far away for them to be useful to me. I may have been down a late night dino museum rabbit hole and got too invested in the challenge. I would like to donate them to @DoubleBBrian! Enjoy Brian!

@jamesjurassic65 Ouranosaurus? (looks more like a Dimetrodon)
