Hmm, that was really annoying and a definite swerve from the higher greens I was getting. Didn’t feel logical today

I solved Semantle #109 in 62 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 24.60. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #20. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 19.76. semantle.com/

My specialist subject!

I solved Semantle #109 in 35 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 2.63. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #12. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 49.55 (985/1000). semantle.com/

After a dismal cemantle yesterday I'm following suit with semantle today!

My highest greens are 970, 965, 961, 956, 949. Two of those are a hint, which are negative words, so I'm presuming that's the right track. But need help, please!

InMySpareTime · 18/05/2022 10:45

@BIWI opposite of 961

Wallawallakoala · 18/05/2022 10:58

After a pile of greens I got a hint, 977. I was convinced the next word I put in was going to be it and it was bloody 709.

Hmph!!

Is this the right sort of thing or more 989?

Wallawallakoala · 18/05/2022 10:58

Sorry 997

Heronatemygoldfish · 18/05/2022 11:25

83 guesses and not even a green. I knew yesterday was too good to be true...
Back to random thoughts!

I have no idea how that connects!

Heronatemygoldfish · 18/05/2022 11:39

HA HA HA!
Given what's happened so far this week, I so should have got that easily!

I just couldn't get there today, even with your excellent clue @InMySpareTime!

Think I need to go back to bed.

BIWI · 18/05/2022 12:24

5 bloody hints it took me as well! Confused

JaneJeffer · 18/05/2022 12:25

I think I have nearly every green on the list but I'm not going to scroll down for clues just yet. I don't know why I feel the need to tell everyone this!

comfortablyfrumpy · 18/05/2022 13:02

Still can't get a green.....

JaneJeffer · 18/05/2022 13:25

@comfortablyfrumpy do you want one of mine? They're getting me nowhere.

comfortablyfrumpy · 18/05/2022 13:26

Painful.

Would not have got it without hints.

I solved Semantle #109 in 152 guesses with 6 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 2.63. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #95. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 37.77 (702/1000). semantle.com/

BIWI · 18/05/2022 13:27

So many of the greens today seemed contradictory and with little relationship with the secret word. I find it quite dispiriting when they're like this.

GrouchyKiwi · 18/05/2022 13:28

I had exhausted my synonyms, so took a hint and now I'm really confused.

I had 996, 992 and 991, and then I got 997. Help!

BIWI · 18/05/2022 13:29

If you're 997 in a class, then you might find yourself [secret word].

BIWI · 18/05/2022 13:29

None of your other greens will help, I'm afraid

ErrolTheDragon · 18/05/2022 13:52

My greens are quite descriptive of my current feelings towards this particular game

InMySpareTime · 18/05/2022 13:56

@ErrolTheDragon the socially acceptable face of 926

ErrolTheDragon · 18/05/2022 13:59

Thank you! - 999 and home

Doubleraspberry · 18/05/2022 14:29

If I hadn't remembered to try antonyms fairly early on in my green journey, I could have been scuppered.

JaneJeffer · 18/05/2022 14:31

Doing my head in.
