I've got such a random assortment of words. How is 537 anything to do with 551?!

Wallawallakoala · 28/03/2022 20:03

Erm ok
I solved Semantle #58 in 109 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 14.45. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #6. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 11.47. semantle.novalis.org/

Thank you all for clues! There is literally no way I'd have got it from the words I had!

@Wallawallakoala I was going to say 537 was a better clue but see you've got it now.
The lust was wierd today.

My first day back at Semantle after a weekend away and maybe the tides have turned!

I solved Semantle #58 in 18 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.40. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #4. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 3.89. semantle.novalis.org/

ZiaMcnab · 28/03/2022 20:19

Just goes to show how much luck plays a part: my 1st green at guess 4 was only 419 so I carried on with fairly random guesses but landed on 995 on guess 7. Unfortunate that I tried every single lateral link to 995 before landing on the target but I’ll take 18 guesses! And it’s brought my average right down to 72.38.

So pleased to be back!

semantlename · 28/03/2022 20:29

Not a single green until guess 84 where I've hit 900. Now I'm back on no more greens

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 20:32

@semantlename 900 and 1000 both forms of same thing

semantlename · 28/03/2022 20:33

I've managed 57 and 876, too. I feel like I'm blanking on a word and skirting around it 😅 back to the drawing board.

BabbleBee · 28/03/2022 20:35

@Wallawallakoala I’ve got 551 too and that’s all!!

ZiaMcnab · 28/03/2022 20:42

@semantlename, @JaneJeffer’s clue above also works if you replace 900 with 876

ZiaMcnab · 28/03/2022 20:44

@BabbleBee 551 is only very, very tangentially related, I’m afraid, I’d stop following that track if I were you!

semantlename · 28/03/2022 20:45

I solved Semantle #58 in 144 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.36. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #84. My penultimate guess had a similarity of -1.51. semantle.novalis.org/

🥳🥳 thank you. I was trying to think of the common link and got 912, which gave me a quick finish.

Absurdle · 28/03/2022 20:50

I solved Semantle #58 in 32 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.02. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #14. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 77.92 (999/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Either I'm getting better at this or I'm getting luckier. Though I do not know why on earth I guessed 999 before 1000.

BabbleBee · 28/03/2022 20:50

Thanks @ZiaMcnab another couple of stabs in the dark and I’ve got 275 & 381…. I mean wtf?!!

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 20:56

If someone was 275 something about 381 it might end up in ? @BabbleBee

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 20:56

If someone was 275 something about 381 it might end up in ? @BabbleBee

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 20:58

Oh no I got 275 and 375 mixed up. Sorry

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 21:00

Anyway a 375 who did bad things might be seen?

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 21:01

I mean 381. Jesus Christ what's wrong with me?!

BabbleBee · 28/03/2022 21:03

I’m laughing at the great effort @JaneJeffer Grin

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 21:05

This is why I never play numbers games!

ZiaMcnab · 28/03/2022 21:16

Haha, @janejeffer’s last clue is a great one for 381, @BabbleBee once you get the right number in it

ZiaMcnab · 28/03/2022 21:18

I’ve smashed worldle, managed globle, conquered quordle and waffle by the skin of my teeth today but nerdle is absolutely impossible, so I feel your pain @JaneJeffer 😂

JaneJeffer · 28/03/2022 21:23

Grin does anyone else go off muttering numbers when someone is looking for a clue and you need to check the list?
