Semantle 11

[Idroppedthescrewinthetuna]

Here we go, thread 11.

We are all well and truly addicted now!

I solved Semantle #90 in 40 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 19.49. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #13. My penultimate guess had a similarity of -2.46. semantle.novalis.org/

That was a surprise! I started with a totally random word that I had never used before, and although it wasn't green, it was relevant, which got me on the right lines very quickly!

You're a bit off track. Think of things a bit like those but relating to a different sense.

They're kind of related but not in an obvious way. Try and think of other things that you might put in the same place (I can be more specific in a DM if you want)

Sorry that applies to your top three rather than necessarily the others, think what makes them different

@Catabogus 983 has arms. What would go over them? Or over the thing they go around?

Ah i see

its good to learn knew things!

Yet another one where I was nowhere for ages and then just seemed to stumble across it.

I solved Semantle #90 in 68 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.23. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #53. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 76.54 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Thank you, thank you! I got it at last after 126 guesses. It was a combination of Errol and InMySpareTime ‘s clues that did it. What a relief!

I’ve got 987, 979 and 960. Any clues - I’m stuck!

I solved Semantle #90 in 387 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 5.40. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #35. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 15.08. semantle.novalis.org/

That was an absolute **er of a game and I only got it from the clues on here for 983. WTAF? None of my greens had any connection at all, and I had literally hundreds. Sometimes this game…

@MoonriseKingdom personal 960 979s

What do those 3 have in common?

No hint today!

I solved Semantle #90 in 46 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.28. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #19. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 60.91. semantle.novalis.org/

I solved Semantle #90 in 104 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.28. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #49. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 69.36 (995/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

@InMySpareTime thanks - that really helped me!

I need some nudging please - I have 853 but I don't understand the hints around it so far. Above that I have 855, 892, 903, 918, 922 and I can't get any closer on that track. Below I have 829, 802, 771 which seems like a different track. HELP??!

I solved Semantle #90 in 139 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 9.56. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #67. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 22.13. semantle.novalis.org/

Really not happy with todays.

@TyneFilth what puts 771 into an individual?

I solved Semantle #90 in 82 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -2.46. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #26. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 44.52. semantle.novalis.org/

Glad I got it as I need to do some work tonight!

Earlier in the tread a couple of us mentioned how some of the words were WTF!! and I mentioned 892 and 903 then. I think you might be best ignoring them! I'd ignore that one too.

771/802/829 more useful, if you try to put 853 with those, what sort of direction do your thought go in?

(that's more of a nudge, I hope, rather than a more specific clue)

Didn’t enjoy today’s at all

I solved Semantle #90 in 75 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.27. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #15. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.18. semantle.novalis.org/

Help 😆

@SouperNoodle you have chosen such a path I can't think of a clue! Just awful!
Think more of what you would do with your words, and then add a bit of electric

This clue is awful. Sorry

@Idroppedthescrewinthetuna It's not awful at all! It just got me to 987 😁 thank you!

How random was that!!
