# Crowdle

**Crowdle** is *democratic wordle*. This is a nebulous premise with multiple interpretations; so instead of picking one, `crowdle` implements them all!

In all cases, "democratic" means _multiplayer cooperative_ where game actions are decided by vote. The players agree to play ahead of time and share a victory or loss. We also specifically mean _direct_ democracy where every player has equal representation in the voting process.[^representative]

[^representative]: Although the team political intrigue of selecting representatives sounds like another fun Wordle variant.

However, _what_ exactly are the players voting on?

- **OneWord**: Each player votes on a specific _valid word_ to guess. 
- **AllLetters**: Each player can vote which letter is on _every_ spot.
- **ManyLetters**: Each player can vote which letter _any_ spots are.
- **OneLetter**: Each player can vote which letter _one_ spot is.

In addition, you can contrast _majority voting_ from other options such as _instant-runoff voting_.

It's fun to theorize what kind of teamwork might happen with any of the above, but it's more fun to just play the game!
