Semantle 13

FFS!

I solved Semantle #106 in 85 guesses with 1 hint. My first guess had a similarity of 14.55. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 38.41 (882/1000). semantle.com/

My early, cold guesses took me to a completely different place, resulting in 956, so when I was given the hint of 967 you can see why I was befuddled

So yesterday, when you all had 'visor' as the secret word, I had 'air'. No-one else here, or on the reddit thread, seems to have had that! Most confusing. Good job I realised and didn't start to try and give hints based on my secret word

Oh, and thank you @InMySpareTime - that really did help.

I solved Semantle #106 in 61 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.94. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #18. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 24.91. semantle.com/

No logical progression at all today for me...

I solved Semantle #106 in 35 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 26.61. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #10. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 35.51 (731/1000).

I had a bunch of higher greens but had ended up in a weird spiralling lower phase. Then bam!

My first semantle, and it took me 306 guesses! I would have got it sooner but I thought I had actually put the word that ended up being correct, further down the line. Hopefully practice will help! Well done all of you who got it in under 50 tries.

@TheLadyofShalott1 if you put a word in twice, it just surfaces the last time you did it, doesn’t add to your score, so always do it if you aren’t sure!

Just coming on to scream - aargh!
Why do I play this annoying game?

I solved Semantle #106 in 166 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.46. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #56. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 12.76. semantle.com/
Been all around the house.

I’ve been under 60 guesses for three days in a row now 😱

probably get 400 tomorrow 😅

@ErrolTheDragon please could you help me? My first green is also 731 and I've got a tonne of high colds. Where do I go now!?

Weirdly just guessed 985!? Is that relevant?

Very similar. Maybe need to be slightly meaner

Honestly the strangest thing

43 - sooooo close to getting my average under 100!

I tried various types of 731 but they were all cold till I got the right one, by luck rather than judgement.

Suffering succotash. My words just made no sense until the very end. I had So Many Greens.

I gave up today. I was too tired to work out how the hell the weird words I had could lead to anything.

Tomorrow is another day.

Titting about in an ocean of greens.

Highest 974, 954, 937, 917, 909, 891
Clear theme but I just can't think of any synonyms or antonyms any more.

Assuming we're going for the same word (how would we know if not?) I would really like some hinting. Is it a verb or what?

Have tried a bit "gentler" and now have 969 and 985.

960 I mean
