Well that was disappointing, I got it in 2.

I skimmed through it and saw two words together and mentally filled in what I thought the third would be to make a small unusual phrase. Then connected to that just took a punt at the headline as the lengths of the words seemed about ok for what I thought it might be.

I was all geared up for a nice long brain workout!

Finally got it in 49 after some heavy pointers from DH. He got it in 8. I am wondering if he spotted the same word combo as Coord as he immediately spotted something that suggested a theme and also took a punt on his second guess based on this and name size (he was wrong though and had to narrow it down a bit more.)

iklboo · 26/04/2022 18:43

24 guesses, 66.67%, no Google.

Coralblimey · 26/04/2022 18:43

What @Coord said. There’s a clue in the middle.

Are we all ready for the next one? And who will be the first to solve and post today? Yesterday was @AliasGrape !

DD’s swimming night tonight and then sorting dinner, now just have to wrangle her through till bedtime before I can get stuck in!

Well done to everyone getting it so quickly. I'm happy with mine after yesterday's disaster!

Definitely easy today, got the general subject very quickly

PortiaFimbriata · 26/04/2022 19:51

Fuming about yesterdays. Positively fuming.

Saw this thread this morning, thought that sounds fun. Worked out the general sphere of knowledge in my lunch break, got loads of the words (I have a pure maths degree) but had a bit of a mental blank on what the name of the distribution was. Decided to come back to it this evening but didn't realise that it doesn't change at midnight BST like Wordle does, so I missed my chance.

This evening's was easy but then everyone thought that was easy so I've lost my bragging rights.

Sorry. I don't think I'll ever be able to beat that.

Wow! That's amazing!

Vastra · 26/04/2022 19:54

759 yesterday, 22 today… bit of a contrast! And four of those were autocorrect messing me around. Slightly disappointed now that I didn’t try to fill in more of the article before putting in the last word of the title.

AliasGrape · 26/04/2022 19:54

Well not quite as quick as two but I’m impressed with my six! Couple of guesses to check it was the subject area I suspected, then as @Coord says there’s a three word phrase of which it gives you two, that plus subject area makes answer obvious.
