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.

@SouperNoodle

I've got 548 and no relating words are green Hmm
I can think of a phrase consisting of the target word and 548.

Very slow start this morning. 81 guesses before I got a green and I was starting to panic!

I solved Semantle #67 in 119 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.89. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #81. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 24.17. semantle.novalis.org/

ThatPosterIsSoRight · 06/04/2022 09:14

Any help on how to move on from 992 and 982 please?

HadEnoughOfBears · 06/04/2022 09:17

Is 968 along the right lines?

Coord · 06/04/2022 09:18

Got it in 543 guesses Shock thank you for the clues on here!

ThatPosterIsSoRight · 06/04/2022 09:19

Finally!!

I solved Semantle #67 in 201 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.52. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 29.52 (572/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I wouldn’t get it from that

Not too bad today.
I solved Semantle #67 in 60 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.03. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #14. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 0.61. semantle.novalis.org/

Heronatemygoldfish · 06/04/2022 09:43

Morning. Am going nowhere so far today. Back to random guessing I think!

AppleKatie · 06/04/2022 09:44

I solved Semantle #67 in 106 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 3.46. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #10. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 0.89. semantle.novalis.org/

Got there in the end! But the link to the greens I have isn’t an obvious one to me!

AliasGrape · 06/04/2022 09:48

88 guesses in, only one very low green so far. Struggling today.

Wallawallakoala · 06/04/2022 09:50

Ive only got 548 too, my high colds got me there!

HadEnoughOfBears · 06/04/2022 09:50

I solved Semantle #67 in 119 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.83. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #19. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 8.70. semantle.novalis.org/

Really not sure how I got it, I don't see the connection between it and most of the greens I had

Wallawallakoala · 06/04/2022 09:53

323, 548 and 692! I can confidently say these words are not going to help me get there!!

Wallawallakoala · 06/04/2022 09:53

Hang on wtf

I solved Semantle #67 in 79 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 1.32. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #54. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 16.54. semantle.novalis.org/

Funny I posted before reading the comments but my only green is 548 too. Good to know it can still be done.
Wallawallakoala · 06/04/2022 09:54

I was thinking about what you said @InMySpareTime and what phrases I say. That was a surprise!!

BIWI · 06/04/2022 09:59

Stuck on 990. I always seem to get stuck around there!

estoybien · 06/04/2022 09:59

I got 996 around fifty guesses ago and cannot find my way through. Also have 984 and 979 which are not helping either.

MadisonAvenue · 06/04/2022 10:00

I can’t get any further on than 995, I’ve exhausted all words that I can think of or find.

comfortablyfrumpy · 06/04/2022 10:02

163 guesses, 3 greens and I can't get beyond 807.
Beyond frustrating!

Doubleraspberry · 06/04/2022 10:03

So many unhelpful high greens. The first few I got just don't link at all to the target word, and also meant I took the highest greens that were actually useful to have a different meaning at first.

BIWI · 06/04/2022 10:03

990, 983 and 971 all taking me down the same route. Yet 990 is only 41.96 similarity, which suggests I'm nowhere near.

Apart from one…

I solved Semantle #67 in 248 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.74. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #43. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 13.48. semantle.novalis.org/

I would think 995 & 993 are the best ones to get it from.
