Sources and what is still open
This table is the status of the guide, not a second copy of every article. If a row says one source, the article is supposed to say that too.

Status on 30 Oct 2026
I mark a row verified only when two independent public sources agree. A store listing can be the authority for its own price and version, and I still say so.
| Fact | What I publish | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Rounds | 5 | NerdleBuddy and EarthGuessr; official daily corroborates |

| 25,000 cap | Not used | Conflicts with the share line |
| Points formula | Blank | Not published |
| Creator | Gus Owen | NerdleBuddy and Seekdle; jobs page corroborates |
| Angus Owen | Rejected | Only timeguessr.net |
| Site existed | By 13 Mar 2023 | Archive capture; exact launch day blank |

| Android minimum | 7.0 in metadata | Google Play only (single source) |
| Room size | Blank | Not published |
| Archive span | Recent replay window; endpoints change | Official calendar plus Seekdle limited-window guide |

| Discord bot | Not documented | No maker page |
Conflicts I refused to merge
App ratings: the iOS page shows about 4.9 from 2.8 thousand ratings, while the lookup record the same day was 4.86 from 2,751. Android shows 4.8 from about 3.7 thousand, and earlier research recorded AppBrain at 3,511 (403 on this recheck). I print the spread.
Ads: the subscriptions page says the free layer has ads on web and app. Earlier AppBrain research said no ads, but the directory returned 403 on this recheck. Some reviews say no ads. I retain the disagreement, not an unverified claim that ads never appear.
A 25,000-point maximum in some older guides conflicts with the official share text and independent guides giving 50,000. I do not invent a reason for that discrepancy.
Questions people ask
Why are some numbers blank?
Nobody published them. A blank is the honest cell.
How often is this checked?
The date on each row is 30 Oct 2026 unless a page says otherwise. Store counts move faster than this table.
Keep going
