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!

I think I'm going to stop giving clues because you're all getting it quicker than me

Just squeaked it in as time was running out.

I solved Semantle #83 in 138 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of -2.88. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #35. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 34.84 (958/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Your clues make the thread though!

Hopefully others find it easier than me. None of the words I tried were especially useful, TBH I eventually found it basically by luck. I am struggling to sleep ATM though... so I'll blame that.

I solved Semantle #84 in 151 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 8.28. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #28. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 28.53 (792/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Hey all, new to this game, I solved #84 in 43 guesses with one hint. My first guess had a similarly of 10.91. My first word in the top 1000 was #5 (847). My penultimate guess had a similarity of 32.97 (930). It did make sense and the hint helped to narrow my guesses.

Was worried this was going to be one where I get lost in a sea of synonyms, but I got there!

I solved Semantle #84 in 85 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.04. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 6.13. semantle.novalis.org/

Well that's brought my average down a bit!

I solved Semantle #84 in 49 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 15.46. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #6. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 61.24 (997/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

That was an effort today. Gradually crept up the list of synonyms.

Got a bit stuck and needed a hint today - got there in the end though.

I solved Semantle #84 in 101 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 11.59. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 67.19 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

top words are 985 and 971 967 and 945
confused

easy when you know!

Wow! I was stuck and just considering using a hint. My synonym finder had failed. But I squinted at my top greens and suddenly...

I solved Semantle #84 in 88 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 1.14. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #34. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 17.83. semantle.novalis.org/

I'm having another "sea of synonyms/antonyms" day, over 300 guesses and baffled by the opposition of 996 and 994. What is like both of those?

How might you 994 something? @InMySpareTime

100 guesses after getting 994/996 I have in and used the hint button

I solved Semantle #84 in 149 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 11.73. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 67.19 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I can see the connection to 994/996 but jts not a synomym as such. Just similar.

How might you 994 something?

Sorry if this is showing already, I can FINALLY post on the app again hooray! I find the browser harder work to use!

I solved Semantle #84 in 350 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.22. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #2. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 21.69. https://semantle.novalis.org/

Well that's an embarrassingly large number of guesses

Really stuck! I’ve got 183, 757, 827, 902, and 963

I was thrown by the basic thing that does it being cold.

I solved Semantle #84 in 56 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of -0.68. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #23. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 67.19 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I wish I’d never noticed the hint thing, it’s far too tempting. Before that I’d have spent ages rattling around near the top greens. Frustrating, but ultimately more satisfying when you do get it.

This seemed to take a long time, and I wasn't really on the right track for the word. It came out of nowhere and I fully expected it to be cold.

I solved Semantle #84 in 127 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 5.55. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 14.15. semantle.novalis.org/
