Semantle thread 3 is almost full and we don't seem to be running out of steam, so here's a nice new shiny thread for those, like me, who are mad enough to start the new game at Midnight.

The game of Semantle can be found by folowing this 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 our previous thread is here. We tend to use the threads to rant about how we're getting nowhere, celebrate our successes and laugh about the previous day's top 1000 but please, no spoilers. Subtle hints only here; use DMs for more obvious clues.

Enjoy, and forget about the News, the housework and the rest of your life for a while!

Surely people either read here for clues or to post how many they've got it in. I like all the clues.

Thanks to them and my message I finally got it!! Can't actually believe i hadn't thought of that word before. You should have seen some of the unwholesome ones I tried haha.

I solved Semantle #49 in 327 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.20. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #40. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 41.76 (984/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Thanks @SouperNoodle for the pm too. Finally got it from that and the other clues then made sense.

Lotsofpots · 19/03/2022 09:32

Took me 93 guesses to get anything green, so then managed it pretty quickly.

I solved Semantle #49 in 106 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.95. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #93. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 5.98. semantle.novalis.org/

Naming random objects in a 657 will probably get you there

InMySpareTime · 19/03/2022 09:50

@BettyBootsie if 727 was a bay, how would you keep it nice?
(There is an unwholesome meaning for 727 too, if you know you know which track to follow)
