Thanks for trying @Useranon1 I used a couple of hints (first was 732 - helpful! So I actually googled 799 when I got the hint as I didn't even recognise it, my greens were so far away!)

I solved Semantle #95 in 108 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.50. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #55. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 70.88 (999/1000). semantle.com/

There are loads of red herrings amongst the greens!

<Googles 860>

Maybe a 998 can get it from a 1000?

3rd guess was 951 so got me on the right track quickly! Which I'm pleased about, considering I somehow forgot to do todays before realising when I got into bed at 22:30 and of course just HAD to do it

ErrolTheDragon · 04/05/2022 23:11

Not sure 783 is as commonly used in the US as the U.K.?

Featuredcreature · 05/05/2022 02:08

Took 137, my first green was a very random guess that sent off on a weird tangent, as far as I can see it has nothing to do with it and was 850 something, ah well.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 05/05/2022 03:35

906 is normally one of my start words too @ErrolTheDragon but because I got 607, I went from there instead!
