Coming soon: Six letter OzWord​

Hi guys! For our first competition of the new year, we're offering the chance for you to win a $100 Coles/Woolies/Aldi voucher.

Many of our veteran members will be familiar with our OzWord game - see https://seniorsdiscountclub.com.au/threads/the-official-ozword-thread.4288/

It's a shameless rip off of Wordle (which is in turn a rip off of an old Dutch game show), but the catch is that the words need to be related to Australia somehow. They can be Aussie slang (like 'OCKER'), places (like 'BYRON'), or even just loosely related (like 'BEACH').

Our current version of the game has 5 letters, but we thought in 2023 we'd ramp up the difficulty a bit for those who want an extra fix and launch a 6 letter OzWord. Note that we won't be retiring the 5 letter version - the two will run in parallel.

So... The aim of this competition is to submit your favourite six letter words for us to incorporate into the new version of OzWord.

The only rules are that:

1. It needs to be at least loosely related to Australia in some way
2. It needs to be six letters long
3. It needs to be spelled correctly

A few examples to get us started might be:

KAKADU
WOMBAT
DESERT

You can submit as many words as you like.

This competition will run until the 9th February. We'll pick our favourite word and award the prize to the winner on the 10th. Note that even if you don't win, your word may still make it into the new six letter version of OzWord!

Hi everyone!

I'm just popping in here because we have had a few members email us asking who won this competition! I'm so sorry, I announced it in the newsletter back in February but never posted it here as well - in the future, when we run a competition I'll be sure to announce the winner in the newsletter and post it in the forum as well!

The winner of the six letter OzWord Competition was the lovely member @Heather W! Heather sent us an entire spreadsheet of 6 letter 'Aussie' words to include in the daily six letter OzWord and we were truly blown away. Then the followed up with an entire spreadsheet filled with 5 letter 'Aussie' words for our Classic daily OzWord.

She was sent her $100 voucher on February 1

A big thank you to member @Heather W, but of course to each and everyone of you who also sent us these six letter 'Aussie' words! If you want to play our six letter OzWord you can play it any time here. The 6-letter word is updated every 24 hours!

Thank you so much again!
Maddie.
