Semantle 11

[Idroppedthescrewinthetuna]

Here we go, thread 11.

We are all well and truly addicted now!

Oh I know but I definitely put what I would consider the basic element of 997. But I did something stupid. I was a bit more in depth (got 357) rather than broad 😅 it just clicked I hadn't tried the most obvious word.

Thank you!

Oh my gosh my first game, my 23rd word was the first in the green - 578 and I got it on the next go!! I'll have to never play it again!!!

I solved Semantle #88 in 17 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 1.28. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #12. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 4.29. semantle.novalis.org/

I solved Semantle #88 in 46 guesses with 3 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 21.17. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #18. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 61.68 (996/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Quite straightforward today. Although I spent far too long in the low numbers. Once I got a green it didn't take many more.

Took me forever to get my first green. Once there it progressed reasonably but wow I clearly need some better starter words 😁

It was a slow climb up the greens but the progression made sense.

I solved Semantle #89 in 93 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 13.19. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #32. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 53.43 (991/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Very happy with that!

I had 999 for ages, I don't think it's especially similar but I can see they're related.

I solved Semantle #89 in 128 guesses with 2 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 13.59. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #87. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 50.28 (975/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Blimey, two good scores in a row, I think I might finally be getting the hang of this. Given that my first green tends to go hand in hand with the solution, I probably should have gone straight for that though which would have shaved a handful of guesses off my score.

I have no idea how you all get it so quickly. I have a number of greens and cannot get any closer than 991!

Actually 942 is my closest.

I'm on 957 and have exhausted all words to get me further ( I can get lower no problem )

I suspect I'm on one of those weird parallel world climbs which won't get me to the target.

my highest is 901
doing very badly today

oh 942 now

I'm in exactly the same position.

@MrsLargeEmbodied @ApolloandDaphne what do you need to live in 942?

@LadyOfTheCanyon if you have the same 957 you are ?

Nothing, nothing, nothing… 973!

@SheilaFentiman what does 973 demand?

oh great
