Semantle 10

[ElegantlyTouched]

Here we go again! Is this game getting easier, or will we all be wallowing in the hundreds in a day or two? Only time will tell!

Anybody new to the madness do join in. We need all the help we can get!

755 = me doing Semantle

My average hasn't improved at all despite getting a few quicker ones.

I just tried this for the first time ever. Suspect it was a fluke

I solved Semantle #80 in 13 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.75. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 76.83 (994/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

My 5th guess was 999/1000 - was worried I’d never get there!

I solved Semantle #80 in 17 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.32. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 29.25. semantle.novalis.org/

I didn’t get any greens at all! Total fluke. Still not my best (6) but a million miles from my worst (1178)!

Lucky guess today

I solved Semantle #80 in 8 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.99. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #5. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 87.06 (999/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Well, another astonishing day - actually feel like I used some skill today, as I got my first green (431) by sheer luck on guess 3, but then used my little noggin to find the right very tangentially link track to take me to the target with 0 clues and no thesaurus usage!

I solved Semantle #80 in 19 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.35. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 79.01 (995/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

The nearest words list is blowing my mind, though! Even confused by the fact 999 and 998 are that way round and what the hell is 855 that high when the word of which the target word is a type got a score of 8.71??? This game: even frustrating when it's easy, how does it do it?!!!

I solved Semantle #80 in 48 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 40.84 (766/1000).My penultimate guess had a similarity of 62.07 (962/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

My first guess looked like it was going to be a quick finish but still took loads of tries to finish

I solved Semantle #80 in 79 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 21.42. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #8. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 56.29 (940/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I solved Semantle #80 in 28 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 27.74. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 40.70 (753/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Yy Zia. 720 weirdly low as well.

I solved Semantle #80 in 15 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 26.66. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #6. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 60.85 (956/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Ooft

858 just about sums up my life.
I mean what the hell are some of those lower words? It's shocking.

Hadn't heard of this until I saw the cemantle thread. Managed to guess it in 8, which appears to be quite good but I'm guessing was a complete fluke!

I solved Semantle #80 in 8 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 16.93. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #5. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 79.01 (995/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

cemantle ????

@JaneJeffer

cemantle ????

I'm not sure, I saw a thread about it and apparently it's like Semantle. I hadn't heard of either so I tried this first.

Well damn *@RagzRebooted* now I have another word to find

Sorry! I haven't tried it yet, I'm not sure I 'get' this version.

help!!! NEED help with ruddy cemantle now FML

I can't help, I'm on 146 and getting further away from the answer.

My score of 8 on this was definitely a fluke!

I'm struggling with the Cemantle too!
