I solved Semantle #96 in 36 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 5.94. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #6. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 27.70 (443/1000). semantle.com/

I had 998 at guess 16 and had another 20 guesses of different variants, which has annoyed me as I thought I might get it in under 30!

I solved Semantle #96 in 60 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 4.58. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 42.88 (955/1000). semantle.com/

Toughie - needed help from Google 😂

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

Unfortunately for me, I think you meant that for @EdwinsActsOfKindness - 607 is one of my starting words, and I'm currently stuck at 905 not 906Grin

SheilaFentiman · 05/05/2022 07:40

Ha - you are right, Errol!

I often do use 906 early but thought I was on track before I'd tried it.

Oh no - like my red herring yesterday of wandering round the house!

Honestly, I’m not sure I’d want a 906 as a 905 judging by the current climate. Also judging by the current climate, can see how 906 and 607 didn’t lead you to 998 @SheilaFentiman as I do sometimes feel that 998s are so far removed from 607s that they should have their own separate classification!

SouperNoodle · 05/05/2022 08:00

My highest so far has a similarity of 13.52 😂🤦‍♀️

I solved Semantle #96 in 72 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 2.87. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #4. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 52.89 (987/1000). semantle.com/

Argh. 906 at guess 4, 998 shortly after that. And then basically every other word I tried was green, high green at that. I know too much about this one! Made the fatal error of going round the subject rather than just sticking to synonyms, and also thinking too much about the site being American. I should have got this in under 20.

comfortablyfrumpy · 05/05/2022 08:12

I was at 998 for ages!

Was also trapped into thinking stateside too much.

I solved Semantle #96 in 63 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.83. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #23. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 14.36. semantle.com/

With a 906 as a 905, you'd have plenty of 754s though!

Back on track after dancing around immediate family members for ages yesterday and never thinking to extend out of the nuclear!

had to get a hint to get above 996! Pathetic.

Doubleraspberry · 05/05/2022 08:54

I’ve had 906 as 905 (sort of) and I really don’t recommend it to anyone.

Etinoxaurus · 05/05/2022 08:54

Hmm! (Pop up WhatsApp message included as a snapshot of my life)

I got a hint for 999 and am now stumped-
help!

My average is down to 54 as it reset a few days back and thinks I’ve only played 4 times.

Quick one for me today. I was thinking this was quite a relevant topic, then remembered the site is American so it was just coincidence.

RichardOsmansXraySpecs · 05/05/2022 09:17

Think I had every green going today

I solved Semantle #96 in 111 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 16.41. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #21. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 43.33 (960/1000). semantle.com/

ThePontiacBandit · 05/05/2022 10:17

One of my starting words was green today and I got high greens quite quickly. Needed the thesaurus just to get me into finding the Americanisms but quite a good score.

I solved Semantle #96 in 41 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -4.34. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #4. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 86.24 (999/1000). semantle.com/
