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

As before, only rule is no spoilers!

I tried A Team….

I initially tried A-ha thinking it might be about 80s bands 😁

PortiaFimbriata · 18/05/2022 19:25

I tried a-frame...

Coord · 18/05/2022 19:28

Got today's in 48 guesses. Had no clue what the area was until about guess 42.

PortiaFimbriata · 18/05/2022 19:29

81 today. I only lost five guesses to spelling problems.

I was getting nowhere until a word which I was expecting to have one meaning turned out to have a completely different capitalised meaning which gave me the general sphere.

FlippyFloppyFlappy · 18/05/2022 19:36

Aah I thought A-team too.

BestIsWest · 18/05/2022 19:37

Also fell foul of the spelling of the third word. Would have got it much sooner.

I saw on here that there was an issue with the spelling of one of the words in the title, so that helped.

Took me far too many guesses today, considering the number of accurate words I had.

WheelofLife · 18/05/2022 21:07

I googled the last word after seeing there was an issue with the spelling, as had the first two words in the title. 45 guesses, 57.78% accuracy

Lotsofpots · 18/05/2022 21:26

53 guesses 50.95% accuracy. Fucking spelling. I'd have been ten guesses sooner had a I spotted that.

ThatPosterIsSoRight · 18/05/2022 22:19

Aargh I had one of the title words on my 3rd guess. But it was the spelling…. I would have got it in a few goes if it had come up.

ErrolTheDragon · 18/05/2022 22:23

I hadn't looked at the thread ... I got 'that word' right the first time - that's what it's called. I made sure my U.K. spellcheck didn't override it, having been caught out in the past by a word being changed when I don't want it to be, so annoying.

blardyblahblah · 18/05/2022 22:31

Grrrr at Americanizations! I tried that word at guess 9..... totally stumped after that.

Fifthtimelucky · 18/05/2022 22:58

88 guesses today, and accuracy of 65%. The comments about spelling were helpful!

iklboo · 18/05/2022 23:11

@L1ttledrummergirl - 5! Wow that's impressive. What words do you start with?

zoeFromCity · 18/05/2022 23:12

My first under average :) glad, but bit disappointed that it was over so fast, some which took me hundreds of guesses/gradual understanding gave me more enjoyment.

Maybe don't answer that till tomorrow else it might be a bit of a spoiler?

L1ttledrummergirl · 18/05/2022 23:28

No, my lips are sealed. Halo

Imnotanumber · 19/05/2022 05:32

The capitalised "___ Round" really confused me and when I saw what it was I was none the wiser

ErrolTheDragon · 19/05/2022 07:20

I made a couple of wrong guesses due to that, and then thought hard about other possibilities.

ErrolTheDragon · 19/05/2022 08:00

There seems to be a new game which may be of interest- sounds like it might alleviate the annoyance of alternative spellings. Just about to try it
