Semantle 6

[ElegantlyTouched]

A place to combine the madness. Have yet to start today's. Eeek!

I got a green quite early on and still took ages to get there.

I solved Semantle #60 in 58 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.80. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 55.64 (995/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

79 guesses today

My first green was guess 34 and that was 32/1000! Though I can see the link on all 11 of my greens today.

148, I found that one pretty hard.

Stuck on 994 if anyone fancies giving me a hint?

I solved Semantle #60 in 44 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 0.82. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #18. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 44.47 (970/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

@JustLurkingAway the word is a basic element of 994.

Found it in 85. Highly irritating as I tried all its friends about 40 guesses earlier. Glad to have got it though! And looking at the list I was lucky I had loads in the top 100 cos I only know about half of those words

Was getting loads of high greens from about 10 guesses in - one of my usual starting words was green and only a few jumps from there - so I thought ‘oh I’ll get this any minute, quite an easy one’.

Still took me over 50 and a lot of swearing.

I solved Semantle #60 in 53 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.33. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #8. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 60.82 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

93 for me today, took aaaages to get a green. I need better starting words.

I am 170 guesses in and only two (low) greens!
Anyone help??

I am 170 guesses in and only two (low) greens! Anyone help??

Which ones?

Got it in 12 guesses! My first green guess was my 8th at 33.55 similarity and I didn't get any other green guesses.

@Aroundtheworldin80moves

13/1000 and 327/1000 🙈🙈

If you make those things, what do you follow? (Sorry its a bit vague...)

Got it in 13 today, after 185 yesterday. Total fluke with two greens, 37 then 998.

@Aroundtheworldin80moves
Thank you! Took me another 50-odd guesses but I got there!

I solved Semantle #60 in 229 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -3.89. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #109. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 75.15 (999/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

@Doubleraspberry well it ended up being a very useful accidental clue for some of us

I’m a bit worried that some people think of this word in their first 20 words and I had to resort to a thesaurus - pretty sure it says bad things about me

So many greens before I got it!

That was a hard one. Lots of things that seemed to make sense didn’t.

Thank goodness

Lots of random guesses and then suddenly got 987! Not entirely sure of the link with the final word though
