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!

Link to the game we love to hate here!

@Rummikub I got it by misunderstanding @AliasGrape's clue about googling things to make out of something, and confusing it with the school clues! If you get my drift...

This is hurting my head 😂

Rummikub · 23/04/2022 17:20

Are any of these useful?

I had most of those @Rummikub and I think 994 and 996 are the best.

SheilaFentiman · 23/04/2022 17:30

994ing something might result in it 966ing but it also might result in it (targetword)ing

JaneJeffer · 23/04/2022 17:32

I tried Grin

It’s not a direct synonym of 994 and 996 but it’s something that a thing might do if you 994d it or 996d it, especially if it was a certain shape. It might do it up or down a 966.

EdwinsActsOfKindness · 23/04/2022 17:41

Thanks for all the clues!

I had to give up in and use a hint (got to 996 before the hint though!)

I did not find today’s easy.

I solved Semantle #84 in 133 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 7.79. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #15. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 34.39 (950/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

fuck me

I solved Semantle #84 in 254 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 10.31. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #15. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 24.34 (253/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Thank you everyone for your patience!

Aha! Thanks, this was the clue that did it for me, no idea how it took me so long 😂

LividLaVidaLoca · 23/04/2022 18:10

Okay I now have SIXTY FOUR greens and your hints aren't getting me past 996 🤣🤣

LividLaVidaLoca · 23/04/2022 18:15

I solved Semantle #84 in 223 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -3.92. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #11. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 29.69 (844/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

fuck me

Rummikub · 23/04/2022 18:37

It was painful today

im helping dd2 with chemistry and avogadro’s constant was making more sense ( I have to learn it first she said)

Useranon1 · 23/04/2022 18:53

That has to be the most illogical semantle ever?!? It has nothing to do with any of my green words!!!

Rummikub · 23/04/2022 18:59

And the ‘thing’ you ‘target word‘ Is cold?!

Alwaystired99 · 23/04/2022 19:07

Almost 200 guesses, 37 greens and I’m clueless. Highest are bloody 994 and 996 and even with the hints I’ve read here I’m stuck. Think I’m going to give up on today’s as it’s doing my head in.

How might you go about 994ing?

Does this clue help?

ApolloandDaphne · 23/04/2022 19:32

So I began this early this morning whilst at the airport. I then flew to Crete, drank copious amounts of wine with dinner and popped a random word in and boom- got it!

ApolloandDaphne · 23/04/2022 19:33

I solved Semantle #84 in 99 guesses with 3 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 3.79. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #12. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 8.01. semantle.novalis.org/

Here is my score!

Stealth boast Grin

Stealth boast Grin

To be fair, I’d also be stealth boasting if I’d flown to Crete and then quaffed copious amounts of wine 😀

Have a nice time there ApolloandDaphne

ApolloandDaphne · 23/04/2022 20:00

No stealthing, just a normal out there boast! It's been a while since I went on holiday and I am happy tell everyone I am here!

JaneJeffer · 23/04/2022 20:04

Hope you have a lovely time @ApolloandDaphne and your username suits your holiday destination!
