I got it from this without any greens - top hint!

I solved Semantle #112 in 45 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.37. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #45. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 13.41. semantle.com/

JaneJeffer · 21/05/2022 14:57

From what @ItWasPeculiarButBearable?

ItWasPeculiarButBearable · 21/05/2022 15:01

Oh that’s annoying - @JaneJeffer i thought I’d quoted your previous post with the hint in 🤷🏻‍♀️
Thanks anyway!

JaneJeffer · 21/05/2022 15:04

Doubleraspberry · 21/05/2022 15:36

Conversely I got it in 25 and DH has been trying to work it out all day. He won’t reveal his number of guesses.

I solved Semantle #112 in 18 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.43. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #18. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 0.78. semantle.com/

Odd one. Wasn't getting anywhere, and then got it with a random guess.

Ricardothesnowman · 21/05/2022 16:50

OK, so after 5pm can anyone who got 602 or 694 tell me how, and I what way are they related to the target word???

I'm getting fed up of this game I think.

MoonriseKingdom · 21/05/2022 17:36

Getting really frustrated today!
now have 992, 991, 989, 988, 986
can anyone offer me another clue before I give up

InMySpareTime · 21/05/2022 18:02

@Ricardothesnowman surely you mean after 1am when the new one comes out.

Yes, sorry, I get confused as to the times with so many games!

MoonriseKingdom · 21/05/2022 18:30

I gave up in the end for the first time. Not feeling at my best today. Really don’t understand how stove off my high greens were considered so close to the hidden word . Fortunately Redactle was much kinder today

The hints were trying to get my tired brain going..

ThePontiacBandit · 21/05/2022 20:30

Not bad today although I got 499 on guess 11 and I felt like I could have got it sooner. Ended up needing a hint to get to the answer.

I solved Semantle #112 in 52 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 9.91. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #11. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 12.47. semantle.com/

LadyOfTheCanyon · 21/05/2022 20:39

I have completely lost the ability to play semantle and have got better at cemantle, oddly.

The list of nearest words makes absolutely no fucking sense. I was putting in synonyms and antonyms for every bloody green I got, even the high ones, and nothing. I am in awe of people getting this in under 50 as I have at least 25 starter words to rule out various categories before I can even start guessing which area the word might be in. Grrrr I'm so cross. Hopefully redactle will be more fun today. I've been at work and dealing with asshole customers so am not in the best of moods...

I solved Semantle #112 in 245 guesses with 9 hints. My first guess had a similarity of 7.55. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #66. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 52.91 (999/1000). semantle.com/

GrouchyKiwi · 21/05/2022 21:09

This is possibly my best ever. No hints, no clues from this thread. Late in the day after being busy all day. Maybe I should stop doing it with my morning coffee. Grin

I solved Semantle #112 in 22 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.42. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #6. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 8.88. semantle.com/

If you are 952 your are the target word.
To be 974 you have to be ? to gain this.
I know they are rubbish clues but they may help

JaneJeffer · 21/05/2022 21:50

Good stuff @DinosaursEatMan

Well they worked for me! Thank you. I'd got those words and decided to have a peek at the thread to stop me staying up. Got it first guess after reading this clue...
