What was the answer to the redactle a few days ago that was pretty scientific, references to cells, evolution and Charles Darwin? Can anyone shed any light? I gave up!

Was that the Zoology one?

InMySpareTime · 01/05/2022 18:16

Zoology (puzzle #21). The stats tab has all previous puzzles listed.

Redcrayons · 01/05/2022 18:22

got the general gist quite eArly on with some good guesses for the opening paragraph.
chucked in all the names of very similar things I could think of at it, until I got the right one. More luck than skill today.

Argh. I know what today's article is called I just need to get it out of my head.

Should have got that one a bit sooner really.

I'm fed up with it making guesses for me that I didn't put in - plurals, adding in "she" if I type "they"... it's really annoying, especially if the plurals are nonsensical. I don't have that option ticked in settings.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 01/05/2022 18:34

I think you have to tick the box. I know it doesn't make sense and makes it sound as if you want plurals to tick the box, but I think it's the opposite. It resets itself everyday.

Eh? You have to tick the box to turn it off? That's ridiculous!

Went off down a bit of a rabbit hole at first but then got a key word and it clicked. No Googling either.

SickAndTiredAgain · 01/05/2022 19:04

75 guesses today.

Once I realised the general subject type I got it in just a few guesses, but I spent a lot of time barking up various wrong trees.

Cooroo · 01/05/2022 19:06

Highest guess number so far today I think!
I got the sort of thing but narrowed it down wrong ...

I solved today's Redactle (#25) in 328 guesses with an accuracy of 55.79%.

DoorLion · 01/05/2022 19:08

At 67 guesses I was nowhere near then noticed part of the title of one of my favourite books- then I was away.

Coord · 01/05/2022 19:41
