Well, we are still going! And still learning about subjects new and old!

As before, only rule is no spoilers!

Thanks @MrsElm

Blurp · 14/05/2022 19:41

I got it in 14 today, and I feel like I've probably peaked now! (Previous average was well over 300)

BIWI · 14/05/2022 19:43

Checking in! Thanks for the new thread

Tiredandbored · 14/05/2022 19:45

73 guesses and no Google today, pleased with that.

Coord · 14/05/2022 19:45

Got today's in 138 guesses, was tempted to google but managed to get it by myself in the end.

MoonriseKingdom · 14/05/2022 19:46

Thanks for new thread

I needed to look the answer up for yesterday in the end: I knew what it was but didn't know what it was called - I went to the Wikipedia entry on The Tree Of Life (Biology) and the answer was right there - just didn't know the word. I dropped Biology at age 13, forty years ago.

Much better today.

Does anyone else like comparing themselves to the Global averages? I'm usually below average but I'm above today. I usually check back around 4pm as I've noticed the averages grow over the 24hrs.

InMySpareTime · 14/05/2022 19:54

Logically the global average would increase through the day, as the early birds won't have had time to do loads of guesses to get there. The ones who take zillions of guesses will take all day over it.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 14/05/2022 19:56

Its definitely logical. I'm usually the one with 150+ guesses taking hours!

My lowest is 42. Which I've got four times.

Not as good as this morning, but I quite liked this one and didn't have to Google.

I beat my son by 2 guesses today, he's really good at it so I'm feeling quite chuffed.

Redcrayons · 14/05/2022 20:12

Pleased with that, no googling.

i thought it was a very different subject up until my last 5 or so guesses. Fortunately, the answer is one of the very few ‘things’ that I know in the subject area. It would have been a different story if it had been something more niche.

(trying my best not to give any hints)

SheilaFentiman · 14/05/2022 20:56

Dead pleased with this, no hints or Google, though I wasn’t expecting it to be the answer, just to be in the text somewhere

You solved it in 43 guesses

Knowledge on this topic is a little rusty, but not bad for me!

semantlename · 14/05/2022 21:24

Not done many of these. But so proud to have managed this with no hints (except one specific Google or I would have been stuck all night)

Happy with this! Yesterdays took me all last night and half of today. I gave up and googled but it still took a while. I was over 1000 guesses!

But I've done this one so quickly I'm sad I have to wait ages for the next one. 😂

No Google, just plodding on until I hit the answer.

My best one since "Snow".

Fifthtimelucky · 15/05/2022 09:40

97 for yesterday's, with 75% accuracy.

I gave up on no. 37 at about 150 guesses. I had narrowed it down enough to know what I was looking for but I also knew that I didn't know the name for it and wasn't likely to be able to guess it!
