Semantle episode 3

999 replies

Somehow we've almost filled 2 threads already so here is thread 3. I still need a distraction from the news, and Semantle certainly fits the bill.

To understand what I'm on about followthis link. It's a word game like Wordle in that you need to find the secret word of the day, but it works by semantics. So you input a word and it will tell you how close you are. You have infinite guesses.

For example, one of the secret words was 'costly' with expensive, cumbersome and burdensome being the three closest words.

If you want to see how we've been getting on up to now,thread one is here, thread two here.

Enjoy, just don't plan on getting anything else done at the same time!

I still can't see it @ErrolTheDragon . The only 900s I've got are 940, 945 and 992. My other greens are mainly in the 700 and 800s. It took me until my 6th guess this morning to get Wordle too so I think my teething toddler and lack of sleep is getting to my brain.

Still at 996 - it's been hours and I still just keep going down! I have 996, 988, 967, 937, 934, if anyone can give me a hint please Star

JaneJeffer · 13/03/2022 12:52

It's good to see you @BettyBootsie

Bytrgrewd · 13/03/2022 12:53

Think of the things you would do if you were 996 or 934

Any hints would be much appreciated

JaneJeffer · 13/03/2022 13:28

BettyBootsie · 13/03/2022 14:17

Angry why can't I get this?! Grrrr

JaneJeffer · 13/03/2022 14:21

That's good @Haudyourwheesht If it wasn't for hints on here I would have a very low success rate 

@BettyBootsie read my last post again 

@FooFighter99 will PM you

Wallawallakoala · 13/03/2022 14:27

960 is very tenous!

TheGoodEnoughWife · 13/03/2022 14:27

Ha. Got it. Some excellent clues on here. Subtle so I still feel I have worked it out - thank you.

JaneJeffer · 13/03/2022 14:29

BettyBootsie · 13/03/2022 14:30

@Wallawallakoala

960 is very tenous!
That’s what I was working from so I need to reframe! Argh!
JaneJeffer · 13/03/2022 14:31

Grin and some Thanks for you too

BabbleBee · 13/03/2022 14:36

Can I have a hint please? Not a give away one, just something subtle to give me a nudge

VikingNorthUtsire · 13/03/2022 14:40

I'm also stuck at 960

JaneJeffer · 13/03/2022 14:43

Maybe the opposite of 960 in Scotland?
