I've been very close to giving up this game but today's was a bit better. It's no longer chopped off on the right hand side either, although it's so small now I struggle to see it on my phone.

Not as good as some of you but definitely better than my previous goes this week.

Took me 62 guesses to get a green, then another 20 to get 981 (by which point I was just entering random things I could see around me/ about my day) and then the very next guess, which I expected to be a step along the way, was the target.

I seem to have missed the theme entirely. My only other green was 682 which should really have been helpful, except I was thinking of a different sort.

I solved Semantle #117 in 82 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.98. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #62. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 47.98 (981/1000). semantle.com/

Is 662 or 742 anything to do with it before I waste another 50 guesses getting nowhere?

@JaneJeffer there is a phrase 742 and 1000

InMySpareTime · 26/05/2022 13:11

@JaneJeffer 742 and 1000 are different types of desk in a certain context.

JaneJeffer · 26/05/2022 22:31

I can't understand the clues. I pressed the hint button and instead of asking me if I was sure as it used to it gave me three hints and I still can't get it.
