Oh good, welliewarmer! I didn’t really change direction but, when I typed the answer in, I didn’t expect it to score very highly Hmm

AliasGrape · 26/03/2022 08:03

Well I was very naughty and looked at the thread when I’d only guessed a few words, no green, was only really scanning it but I guessed a word based on a clue here and got it.

My own fault I really need to be stricter about not looking here till I really am desperate as I feel much more satisfied that way!

I solved Semantle #56 in 13 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 14.71. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #13. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 8.46. semantle.novalis.org/

Well I hit 895 early but all the main synonyms are cold, so I'm flailing around in the dark.

DoorLion · 26/03/2022 08:05

I solved Semantle #56 in 38 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.20. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #7. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.61. semantle.novalis.org/

Well, that was a surprise, my final guess was kind of related to 977, which was my highest, but I really didn’t expect it to be the word considering my other greens - 937, 928, 799, 776, 423 and 244….

Ricardothesnowman · 26/03/2022 08:10

I have 950, 975 and 987. Am I 9n the right track? Am I looking for a synonym of these?

SheilaFentiman · 26/03/2022 08:13

AliasGrape, same. I had no greens when I got the word!

RoxieLoxy · 26/03/2022 08:16

RoxieLoxy · 26/03/2022 08:17

Got a green on my first guess then had to look here for clues!! It's a bit random isn't it.

RoxieLoxy · 26/03/2022 08:18

@Ricardothesnowman 975 is useful. What do you do when you 975 someone.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 26/03/2022 08:19

Over 500 guesses in and still lost!
Maybe parkrun will help

BIWI · 26/03/2022 08:23

That was hard!

I solved Semantle #56 in 81 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.86. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #72. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 15.54. semantle.novalis.org/

I only got it because of this thread - but before my correct guess I'd only had one green!

Not a word I think many people would even think to guess!

MadisonAvenue · 26/03/2022 08:29

I solved Semantle #56 in 40 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 25.37 (492/1000).My penultimate guess had a similarity of 64.21 (999/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Really didn’t expect that to be the answer, but I got lucky with my first word.

MrsElm · 26/03/2022 08:33

I am 280 guesses in. My highest is 996 and I seem stuck there. Please can someone give me a hint?

InMySpareTime · 26/03/2022 08:35

How would you show 996? Low key.

BIWI · 26/03/2022 08:35

I've sent you a PM @MrsElm

MrsElm · 26/03/2022 08:39

Friolero · 26/03/2022 08:44

I’ve got it eventually (in 206 guesses), but was going in the wrong direction for a long time.

The closest words list is very odd today, lots of random things in there.

Alwaystired99 · 26/03/2022 08:53

Oh. That was one of my worst yet.
Thanks @pukkapine and @InMySpareTime for hints, I got there eventually but that was an effort.
