I got the second word at guess 23, but it took me to guess 230 to get the first. Not my finest work haha

MrsElm · 28/04/2022 20:16

Am back from Pilates. The DC let me down.

Now have the second word, but even with extensive Google, the first word is evading me! 223 guesses and counting...

I solved today's Redactle (#22) in 168 guesses with an accuracy of 47.02%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Had the first word with a different last letter a while back but didn't think to use that form of the word. Then suddenly...

It did take a hundred or so guesses to get on the right track. I had the right part of the world at least!

DoorLion · 28/04/2022 20:17

No Googling today as I knew I’d get it eventually - I got the second word quite early like PP but my mind was in a very different place to the eventual answer!

A few days ago when everyone was getting it in under 10 🤯 what was the big clue? Meryl Streep I think was the answer…

I knew it was about a woman and in the text it said "^Out _ " and " ___"
so I guessed Out of Africa and Kramer vs Kramer.

FlippyFloppyFlappy · 28/04/2022 20:25

My underscores have all bunched together for some reason.

SunshineAddict · 28/04/2022 20:26

"Out of" did it for me.
I was desperately trying to remember the composer or director but all I could manage was Meryl!

The text had a film name in italics: Out Of .....

That's what I got it from, though it would have helped my score if I had spotted it sooner!

So for today's, if I keep googling the second word, will I get it eventually?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 28/04/2022 20:28

Phew, took me ages, tried every word for the second word in the title but missed an obvious one.

You'd be best putting it into the search bar in Wiki tbh.

FlippyFloppyFlappy · 28/04/2022 20:30

Aah, just seen you only have the second word, sorry I thought it was the first.

I couldn’t remember Meryl’s second name and kept thinking Lynch!

I pretend I'm in MI5 trying to break the enemy code 😄.

MrsElm · 28/04/2022 20:45

I enjoyed that one.

Redcrayons · 28/04/2022 20:48

I’m extra thick today. 200 words in and I still haven’t got a clue what its about or enough to google.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 28/04/2022 20:48

bonkersbirdie · 28/04/2022 20:49

Can I have a clue? I have the second word already but can't get the first.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 28/04/2022 20:49

MrsElm · 28/04/2022 20:52

MrsLargeEmbodied · 28/04/2022 20:48

Thank you so much, I would never have got it without that!

I got it in 269 guesses, with an accuracy of 47.58%, whatever that means!

Tell me again, why do we play this?
