OwBist · 06/05/2022 17:53

About to start today's. I did have a wry smile when I got yesterday's, having tried "vegan" a while before I solved it!

Hooray, much more manageable today! I solved today's Redactle (#30) in 39 guesses with an accuracy of 56.41%. Played at www.redactle.com/

User12398712 · 06/05/2022 17:55

I was absolutely convinced that yesterday's was going to be a sex thing (although reproduction related rather than some weird urban dictionary thing!) so I did find it amusing and somewhat disturbing that I muddled up sex and cannibalism.

VivienneDelacroix · 06/05/2022 17:59

Blimmin heck I had to wrack my brain to get the right word today - I was really close pretty early on, but tried pretty much everything but before hitting on the answer.
I was almost tempted to use a book, but resisted!

32 guesses, and my best ever accuracy 72%. I knew roughly what it was for a while, just had to get the right thing.

iklboo · 06/05/2022 18:00

81 guesses, 64.2% accuracy. I had to trawl my memory banks for this one!

LadyOfTheCanyon · 06/05/2022 18:03

I took more time over this than yesterdays. Could probably have got it in fewer guesses but I enjoyed getting it without Googling. Go me!

bonkersbirdie · 06/05/2022 18:19

Couldn't get yesterdays at all! I was all stuck in diseases and infections so was nowhere near.

Got todays though.

Me too- I got strong hits for male and female and went down a rabbit hole.

A few wasted guesses as I hit on a bit of a red herring pointing to a different area, but not too bad.

Yesterday's was cannibalism. It made me want a nice bottle of chianti

Thank you! And I thought I’d ruled out anything food related 😬

Lotsofpots · 06/05/2022 18:48

Oh that was better. 24 guesses and 75.4% accuracy.

Oh dear, I got misled by some of the stuff in the lower paragraphs.

now what am I going to do? First time in a week I’ve solved it in under 100 guesses and now I’m at a bit of a loose end.

I actually had heard of the answer but thought it was more obscure. So googled a lot.

Not bad I suppose! I felt as though I was on the brink of resolving it but just couldn't quite ....

Pleased with that!

QueenOfThorns · 06/05/2022 19:10

My best yet, I think!

I solved today's Redactle (#30) in 17 guesses with an accuracy of 100.00%. Played at www.redactle.com/

I was convinced that cannibalism was too long a word yesterday, so resisted trying it for a while, particularly because the word ‘eat’ only had 3 hits!
