Semantle 12

[JaneJeffer]

Other thread full.

So nearly went for a hintI solved Semantle #100 in 84 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.93. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 50.04 (993/1000). semantle.com/

I can't find any greens, except for the 3 hints which frankly are odd. Nos 1, 250 and 437. Are any of these any use please ??

Where do you get hints from?

I got hints today from semantle. Or was that a hint?



@Veuvelily there's a hint button down at the bottom

@rumred 437 could be something from a previous 1000

Thanks @JaneJeffer. For some reason the penny isn't dropping and I've an impressive selection of negative scores😀

I solved Semantle #100 in 47 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 0.97. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #26. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 57.40 (997/1000). semantle.com/

I like you again today JaneJeffer. I read a couple of your clues and this one got me there! (After using a smaller one just before)

I solved Semantle #100 in 154 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 2.21. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #63. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.13. semantle.com/

That nearly defeated me. No helpful greens for so long then suddenly got it.

If you have heard any 437s. They likely are not from this 1000.

This was annoying me as I was looking and typing similar words to what I saw.

It's definitely on the page, though. I concede that now.

If anyone did octordle about 17 days ago, it may help. (Day may be incorrect)

I only just copped what @Aroundtheworldin80moves is on about!

Ha ha yes I see that now! I hadn't made the connection before 🤣

Its obvious once you see it. 😂

When you know, you know. 🤦‍♀️

It's funny how some of them (like today) take a while but are still enjoyable because I felt I was making progress. Whereas others are just frustrating! I'm obstinate and very rarely use hints (either from semantle or on here).

I got this surprisingly quickly and only one thesaurus suggestion. It’s a funny game when you get the idea quickly, yet sometimes you’re stuck for ages!

The worst is when you're convinced you know it and then it's not even green!

Lost Inna sea of greens and synonyms today. Thought I was doing well but on 997 one clue and paddling backwards now....

106 guesses I feel like 100 of them.were after my first green!

Noooo I definitely put this earlierrrrrrrr aasrggghhhhh jjshhsnkhhgs

See this was what I meant when I said I thought yesterday " ah, tomorrow is the hundredth game, maybe they'll be cute and do something related to that"

Same reason the first word I entered today was " Dalmatian"

Turns out they're only prepared to be obvious once !
