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!

I solved Semantle #50 in 75 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 25.74. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 30.70 (448/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I got a ???? today too. IMO very similar to the final word.

I was delighted to see some good Irish poteen on the list even if it should have been poitín Grin

Took me a while to get there today! Spent a lot of time futzing around trying to get the theme, then lots of words that felt on theme to me were cold. Never mind, got it in the end!

yesterday my highest answer for a long time was saucepan, spoon and eventually herb!

@SheilaFentiman
939 seems a strange one
