Semantle 11

[Idroppedthescrewinthetuna]

Here we go, thread 11.

We are all well and truly addicted now!

I solved Semantle #92 in 66 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 25.14 (611/1000). My penultimate guess had a similarity of 32.59 (915/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I was on the wrong track for ages and it took a hint to get me there. The greens weren't really helping and some of my cold guesses were much closer to the word.

Thanks, I’ll have a think…

I solved Semantle #92 in 53 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.09. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 44.23 (994/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Got useful words. DH got it in 5 with his first green from two high colds when I was about 30 in.

Am intrigued as to what this word is going to be - like others I have 911 and a few synonyms of that - 705, 485 - but I also have a bunch of random words like 981, 942, 905, 470, 437…

Yay, thanks Alias

I solved Semantle #92 in 39 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 1.08. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 40.21 (985/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

No greens at all, just got it from a random guess. Kind of unsatisfying!

Oh I’ve got it now after a hint - 985
Hmm

Only had 4 greens so Think I got a bit lucky.

Semantle has wiped my history so my average is now under 50!

Needed a hint, but got there in the end. Was stumped at the sudden turn between 849 and 850!

I just used a hint and got 914. WHAT???? How does that help me?
Not at all, that how.

@Ricardothesnowman the label 914 shows you are ?

Wasn't expecting that to be the answer 🤔

I solved Semantle #92 in 32 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.81. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #23. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 10.53. semantle.novalis.org/

This game is getting harder. I really don't see the connection between many of rhe greens and the target word. 886? 850? 981? 984?

I've had a good couple of days, 21 yesterday and 38 today, so I can confidently predict we are due a doozy.

I played for the first time yesterday, after coming across this thread...then this happened today:

I solved Semantle #92 in 3 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 5.11. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #2. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 24.25 (526/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I solved Semantle #92 in 39 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.24. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #5. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 6.49. semantle.novalis.org/

I solved Semantle #92 in 49 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of -0.48. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #4. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.38. semantle.novalis.org/

I made a meal of this!
I solved Semantle #92 in 210 guesses with 10 hints. My first guess had a similarity of -2.29. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #7. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 23.93 (490/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

I had to use hints. My previous greens took me nowhere near the goal word!

Resorted to hints.
I solved Semantle #92 in 99 guesses with 4 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 10.36. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #13. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 15.69. semantle.novalis.org/

I solved Semantle #92 in 82 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 4.66. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #2. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 10.65. semantle.novalis.org/

Got 788 on my second go but couldn't see a theme for ages!

Interesting that so many of us had low scoring penultimate guesses today.

I just used a hint that has thrown me completely of course and I am now perplexed!

I was working on a theme based around 967, then the hint is 975 and WHAT?

Stick with 967!

OK, thanks!
