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!

Previous thread here.

Link to the game we love to hate here!

So the hints seem a bit varied then. I was expecting it to move me one up in the greens, but it was a bit higher than that and I didnt think it was that relevant.

I think I prefer the clues on here.

Ok this is really odd. I never use this starting word but it popped into my head. I was still awake at 1am so I went on, typed it in and got my best score in about 15 seconds. Then I went on here to show off and the site was down 🤣🤣

I solved Semantle #81 in 3 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 33.31 (987/1000).My penultimate guess had a similarity of 42.83 (997/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

The hint button isn't working for me!

I solved Semantle #81 in 34 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 10.63. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #7. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.88 (365/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Got it finally!

I solved Semantle #81 in 79 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -2.63. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #21. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 13.01. semantle.novalis.org/

I swear the hints confused me more than helped!

but thesaurus for 980 and I got there a couple of guesses later

I solved Semantle #81 in 55 guesses with 5 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 19.26 (1/1000).My penultimate guess had a similarity of 35.13 (991/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I admit I used the hints today just to see what they were like but it took the pleasure out of it so I won’t again. 69 today.

I solved Semantle #81 in 118 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 1.22. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #22. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 28.44 (938/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I hit a green with my first guess but still took me ages!

I solved Semantle #81 in 184 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 20.91 (371/1000).My penultimate guess had a similarity of 11.49. semantle.novalis.org/

I don't understand how they get all the semantically nearer words to be near one meaning of the word and not another.

Is 986 even a word?!

@BIWI I think it's missing an e on the end.

That was a frustrating one for me today, took 144. Went all around several houses before getting into the high 900s. Such a straightforward word in the end!

Nope! That's 983. 986 is listed as a different word.

I solved Semantle #81 in 42 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 3.44. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #40. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 53.99 (999/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

wow! Another good day for me I’m very chuffed. Fasted progression ever from green to target!

@BIWI that sort of thing happens a lot on the wordlists. Sadly that means that the word 983 is more often misspelled than correctly used in connection with the target.

I got it in 44 today 😊

Got sidetracked by synonyms of an early green which honestly had no connection with the actual word!

I solved Semantle #81 in 96 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 3.44. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #46. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 13.42. semantle.novalis.org/

Yesterday brith was a lot higher than birth (by 200ish places!) (Or whatever day Mother was, I lose track sometimes!)

Took a wee while longer today, had quite a few greens.

I solved Semantle #81 in 52 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.82. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 6.43. semantle.novalis.org/

I was in a rabbit hole for ages, guessing synonyms of 178, which were all green but totally useless.

I solved Semantle #81 in 87 guesses with 2 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 7.26. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #36. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 11.56. semantle.novalis.org/

I quite liked today's, seemed to progress sensibly. What's this about hints?!

I solved Semantle #81 in 88 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 5.31. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #25. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 53.99 (999/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I tried the hint!! Very very odd but high word?!

I solved Semantle #81 in 85 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 16.32. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #10. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 4.16. semantle.novalis.org/

I feel like I should have got this one quicker. Spent much time messing around with synonyms of my first green... which was an error in retrospect.

I solved Semantle #81 in 65 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.76. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #26. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.79 (352/1000). semantle.novalis.org/
