Btw I had only 5 greens, just happened upon the right guess to get me to the word.

I solved Semantle #60 in 267 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 12.20. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #108. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 54.03 (994/1000). semantle.novalis.org/
Thought I would never get it today

poppym12 · 30/03/2022 15:28

Annoying. I thought I'd already put that one. Admittedly I did resort to the thesaurus. Very tired today so not the best day to be trying to solve puzzles.
I solved Semantle #59 in 69 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.61. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #54. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 22.42. semantle.novalis.org/

@MzHz that must have taken it out of you! I get itchy at 95!

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 30/03/2022 15:55

I solved Semantle #60 in 130 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 3.11. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #34. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 17.72. semantle.novalis.org/

That was a slog!

I solved Semantle #60 in 80 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 13.45. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #11. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 17.78. semantle.novalis.org/

My guess 11 was 977, then guess 15 was 990! I think I did pretty badly after that start! I don't think any of the words I got in the top 1000 really related that well to it. it was a random guess in the end!

TimeSlipMushroom · 30/03/2022 17:16

766 is my highest. Am I on the right track as I've run out of synonyms!

InMySpareTime · 30/03/2022 17:20

@TimeSlipMushroom "766 in 1000"

JaneJeffer · 30/03/2022 17:20

@TimeSlipMushroom if you share the same ? you are probably in 766

BabbleBee · 30/03/2022 17:22

Lucky 16th guess was green 549, skirted around a bit.

I solved Semantle #60 in 39 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.14. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.28. semantle.novalis.org/

fuckwhatshouldido · 30/03/2022 17:34

Finally! Got it in 67. Had about a million greens, was up in the 900s within a handful of guesses and then dithered about for ages. Cheated with a thesaurus in the end Grin

BabbleBee · 30/03/2022 17:46

@ElegantlyTouched not far off filling this thread too!

LadyMacduff · 30/03/2022 18:44

Hasselhoffsheadband · 30/03/2022 18:44

Holy shit, I got 992 on my first guess!!! That has never happened to me before, it usually takes a while to get any greens at all!

Oh I liked today. I got 987 on guess 9 and just got to use synonyms until I reached higher each time.

ThePontiacBandit · 30/03/2022 19:01

Business hint helped me get it from 998!

Thanks for the tip but I've exhausted every option I can think of! I'm obviously missing something

TimeSlipMushroom · 30/03/2022 19:42

Hooray! Got there. Thank goodness for this thread!

I solved Semantle #60 in 81 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.38. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #63. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 36.67 (775/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

RoxieLoxy · 30/03/2022 19:47

@TimeSlipMushroom people sometimes make an "766 in 'actual word'". Rehash of the clues above but if you think of people saying those words you might get it. It's on a par with 766 in terms of the word not being very exciting.

Choux · 30/03/2022 19:48

I solved Semantle #60 in 39 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.01. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #4. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 5.11. semantle.novalis.org/

For once I didn't need a hint from this thread (although I did have to use a synonym page as these were not words I regularly use!)

RoxieLoxy · 30/03/2022 19:49

Sorry totally missed your last post! Glad you've got it!

Anyone else annoyed it's not there til 1am now. I liked my midnight Semantle Grin

Lotsofpots · 30/03/2022 19:49

I assume that on an earlier thread people shared their starting words? I'm fascinated to see how everyone approaches is - or if everyone just takes an entirely random approach like me.

Nope that never happened.
