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

As before, only rule is no spoilers!

Just checking I can post on this thread, apparently some people can't

ApolloandDaphne · 15/05/2022 16:48

I liked that one better than yesterday's- having established the general theme, I was thrown by the tense 'is'. I realise that's probably because OT characters were presented in Sunday school/church as a real historic figure so always "was" - so I wasn't thinking about those at all.

Eewwww.

VivienneDelacroix · 15/05/2022 17:40

Oh for goodness sake, I thought I had used a singular at one point, but had used a plural, so it took me far too long!
I don't have auto plurals on.

A bad day after yesterday's which I found far easier.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 15/05/2022 17:47

yes, no googling, just trying to make sense!

TheAbbotOfUnreason · 15/05/2022 17:48

I have spotted that I put in a name with an apostrophe followed by s (e.g. Jane’s) and it shows in my list as 0 hits but it is in the text? It didn’t make any difference to my guessing so it’s just a thing to note.

iklboo · 15/05/2022 17:48

Thank you for the new thread.

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.

My lowest scores are:
17
24
29

My highest:
558
550
546

Quite a difference.😂 All my high ones are science/technology based, low ones are generic or based on culture.
Still not googled any though.

Lovely Grin

User12398712 · 15/05/2022 17:49

Well this is annoying. I know what it is but not what it is.

Am I going to kick myself?

InMySpareTime · 15/05/2022 17:50

Yes you are. You definitely know what this is.

I solved today's Redactle (#39) in 215 guesses with an accuracy of 30.70%. Played at www.redactle.com/

I had nothing. I was firing random words. But suddenly the combination of hits made a logical answer...

Much wandering in the wilderness today, then a lucky guess.

got there via a completely random guess.

iklboo · 15/05/2022 18:11

75 guesses with 61.33% accuracy. Kicking myself because I thought of one of the key words earlier then got side-tracked.

Like another poster I'd used the plural of a word much earlier.

Quite happy with that though

luciatrope · 15/05/2022 18:19

201 guesses, plurals on, no google

Knew what it was but not the thing. Spent ages guessing the thing.

Kicking myself because last week I was thinking about looking up this exact Wikipedia page... and didn't... 🙄

JassyRadlett · 15/05/2022 18:24

Todays was a fucking fucker, 113 then I had to google as I was getting precisely nowhere.
