As requested! A place to scream, rant, and help each other with this wonderful / bloody awful game (delete as appropriate!).

Semantle can be found here.

New Fred, nice!

I haven’t posted for a few days (life getting in the way again).

Lots of guesses in and two greens (518 and 671) and all other synonyms I can think of are cold. Hmmmm…

I solved Semantle #67 in 115 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.84. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #79. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 7.78. semantle.novalis.org/

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 06/04/2022 06:36

Checking in. 50, no greens. Grin

Ermmmm....

I solved Semantle #67 in 106 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.96. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #68. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 12.09. semantle.novalis.org/

My highest green was 823 and I had 7 greens. So lucky guess really!

First time I've gone over 100. So many different routes to this word and I went down every single bloody one of them.

109 in and no greens! A new record…

SheilaFentiman · 06/04/2022 07:38

142 guesses and only 2 greens - 75 and 213

squirrelnutkins1 · 06/04/2022 07:44

I got 946 on guess 18 but can't get any further!

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 06/04/2022 07:45

First word I put in was 648! Stuck now though. Is 995 on the right track?

Coord · 06/04/2022 07:50

268 guesses and I only have 3 greens. This is worst round yet, I will have a break before continuing.

Jacopo · 06/04/2022 07:52

I solved Semantle #67 in 40 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 16.13. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 26.43. semantle.novalis.org/

InMySpareTime · 06/04/2022 07:57

@BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz yes, it's a synonym.

InMySpareTime · 06/04/2022 07:59

@BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz especially if you use 995 as a Scot would.

squirrelnutkins1 · 06/04/2022 08:01

Any pointers for
946
803
782
Please? Xx

Spudlet · 06/04/2022 08:03

I’m only as far as 990 @squirrelnutkins1 and am now stuck, but with 946 - think of the first part of the word as opposed to the full word, and work from there, if that makes sense?

ThatPosterIsSoRight · 06/04/2022 08:05

I got 982 on go 16, and 120 guesses later I’m not getting any closer!

Sometimes it’s harder with an early high gree as there’s no other context around it.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 06/04/2022 08:06

@squirrelnutkins1

Any pointers for 946 803 782 Please? Xx
Go opposite
Spudlet · 06/04/2022 08:09

Any pointers for 990 would also be gratefully received…!

moofolk · 06/04/2022 08:11

Checking in. 53 and only one (very low) green - 86!

I'll be back later

DearZoom · 06/04/2022 08:15

I’m on 70 guesses and no greens yet. My worst start yet!

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 06/04/2022 08:16

Its another word for 990!
BowerOfBramble · 06/04/2022 08:16

I’m also doing crap, 135 guesses only 3 greens - 398, 383, 248.

Those who’ve solved, are any of these at all helpful?? Thanks!

383 probably the most useful of those

@Spudlet @Aroundtheworldin80moves
Thank you.... I've got more greens but no higher than 946 still 😂🙈
