Since weve almost managed to fill our 6th thread I thought I should start the next so we have somewhere to sc

If you're lucky enough not to know what I'm on about Semantle is a word game like Wordle. You need to find the secret word of the day, but it works by semantics, not letters. 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 join in the fun followthis linkand prepare to lose your sanity.

If you want to see how we've been getting on up to now our previous thread ishere. 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!

I solved Semantle #64 in 81 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 23.76 (610/1000).My penultimate guess had a similarity of 55.07 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/[/quote]
This comment helped me!

@moofolk

I've never been this far in and this far away!

I even scrolled through looking for the spoiler but it's been deleted.

If someone has 859 opinions, they might be quite 1000 in their manner of speaking.

Interested in this thread?

HoundOfTheBasketballs · 03/04/2022 18:19

@LadyMacduff that's got me up to 883 thanks :)

SheilaFentiman · 03/04/2022 18:26

984 is the best of those, I think. Someone being 984 might also be described as the answer.

JaneJeffer · 03/04/2022 18:26

@MoonriseKingdom a 984 person is usually very ?

SlightlyJaded · 03/04/2022 20:30

Losing my mind today

Highest I have is 933, then a drop to 647. Are either of those remotely relevant?

SlightlyJaded · 03/04/2022 20:31

987 now as well

BabbleBee · 03/04/2022 20:47

@Omgwasiwrong I think 934 is probably your most helpful, but opposite.

JaneJeffer · 03/04/2022 20:48

@Omgwasiwrong someone 860 will be ? with you

semantlename · 03/04/2022 20:53

[quote JaneJeffer]@Omgwasiwrong someone 860 will be ? with you [/quote]
This got me from 525 to 922. Wasn't more than synonyms from there.

I like to use the clues even if I don't have the numbers and try to work them out from the sentences. I thought I was going to be in the hundreds today so that was a nice surprise.

I solved Semantle #64 in 76 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.54. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #23. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 21.02 (38/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Well done @semantlename Grin

@RenegadeKeeblerElf

931 I would find more useful than your higher ones.
Omgwasiwrong · 03/04/2022 21:26

At long last!!! Thank you! Struggling to find much of a connection with lots of the higher greens thoigh
