Semantle 11

[Idroppedthescrewinthetuna]

Here we go, thread 11.

We are all well and truly addicted now!

Ah, everything but that. Although I feel a bit sad that I got it from a clue!

I solved Semantle #86 in 194 guesses with 2 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 0.45. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #74. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 15.68.

Hmmm...

Nice logical progression once you're above the 950s
Whenever I read anything like this my heart sinks because I know it's going to be a bastard and take me ages!

I solved Semantle #86 in 83 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.12. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #10. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 63.43 (998/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Stuck on 995 if anyone can give me a clue please!

@AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes a bit flatter?

I can't think of anything else!

@AllTheYoungGoodyTwoShoes I put a 995 clue upthread.

I'm aiming to get my average below 100 too!! Well done @MrsElm

I got stuck on 995 for ages & couldn't make anything from the clue upthread either so I got a hint. Pretty quick after that.

I think I will have to get a hint too, going round in circles!

😀

I used a hint and now got it, I thought I'd put that word in!! 😫. Had 995 on 28th guess then got lower greens, had nearly 30 greens altogether!!

Had to have a hint. I was on a completely different track at low level greens!

feeling pleased I got there without clues today 😀

Yay, I did it without the Hint button although some hints on here helped. Did my usual flailing around for ages in the mid-high greens.

I've only just started playing and usually need lots of hints and lots of guesses. Today was a fluke.

I just started playing today! Fascinating game. I solved #86 in 50 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -1.76. The first word in the top 1000 was at guess #23. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 63.43 (998/1000). I used one hint.

Still going here. Got to 939... but I've broken my previous record for ???? entries!

OK that was a total accident. I pressed enter halfway through the word I was about to try and got it!

Wretched frustrating silly addictive game.

I finally clicked on this thread yesterday to work out what this was all about. Didn't get that word, but did get today's through sheer luck.
