Nice work, Goldfish!

Wow that escalated quickly 😂

I solved Semantle #110 in 21 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 0.81. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #20. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 41.21 (991/1000). semantle.com/

Heronatemygoldfish · 19/05/2022 15:03

Thanks, GrouchyKiwi

My average is usually somewhere around 80 and I tend to come here to read the hints if I'm not seeing greens by then. 991 on guess 1 was a bit of a shock!

BIWI · 19/05/2022 15:24

Way too many guesses today. I thought it was going to be a quick one, as I had my first greens on guesses 3 & 4 - but it wasn't to be!

I solved Semantle #110 in 120 guesses with 2 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 20.41. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 41.21 (991/1000). semantle.com/

I always start with the same two word phrase and got 823 straight away so I should have done better.

ScrambledSmegs · 19/05/2022 16:42

I'm still doing ok but my early greens were very low and struggled to get higher. I normally have to take a long break and come back to it later, which seems to help.

I solved Semantle #110 in 46 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -0.02. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #11. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 34.76 (958/1000).

Falling out of love with this game a bit. The hint button was the beginning of the end!

Doubleraspberry · 19/05/2022 17:01

I've never used a hint. Well, other than coming on here!

Doubleraspberry · 19/05/2022 17:02

I had a look at some of the FAQs today for the first time. I can't really believe that 'visor' is one of the 5000 most commonly used words.

ThePontiacBandit · 19/05/2022 21:08

This has been a right faff for me. Got stuck in low greens going nowhere, had to use some hints. Annoying!

I don’t even know why I bother with them, they’re usually rubbish. I got boxiness on the day the answer was lean. Who has ever used that word?

ThePontiacBandit · 19/05/2022 21:57

Hints gave me 865 which had no synonyms and was less than helpful.

ChuckBerrysBoots · 19/05/2022 23:16

Delighted with a 9 today!

LadyOfTheCanyon · 20/05/2022 05:06

Whole lot of nope for me today. And annoyingly, 992 is sometimes a starter word but an early green sent me in totally the wrong direction so I didn't bother. And all the hints I got were shit. Angry

On the plus side, I got Heardle in 1 second and Framed in 2 guesses. Grin

Happy with that given I went off on the wrong tangent for a while.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 20/05/2022 07:30

I'm stuck on 985.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 20/05/2022 07:30

I'm stuck on 985.

On its own that might not seem a good clue. What other greens do you have?

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 20/05/2022 08:01

985, 828, 817, 711, 364, 346, 320

I'm mostly hovering around the 20 similarity point.

Etinoxaurus · 20/05/2022 08:09

Woohoo!!
I’ve not been doing well (200+ yesterday and 9 hints)

They are all quite random words! I would stick with 985 but you need to take it in a very specific direction. Think what can be described as that.
