I gave up around the roman numbers because I chose to include May...

Think I should try again.

edit: okay, I'm going to call it on the Wordle rule.

That's as far as I got as well

im case you tackle it again, the month does not need to be capitalized, and if its lower case, it doesn't count as a roman numeral

I hate when they forbid c/p password fields - that's so stupid and even lessens security.
