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

As before, only rule is no spoilers!

I'm embarrassed to share this but it's only my second attempt and I know nothing at all about the subject.

Solved with thanks to DH. I got most of the words but he got the important final 2.

That was ugly! I ended up googling a key phrase with 'wikipedia' in the search and luckily found it. No glory here!

I thought I was going to get a bit bogged down, as I got the general area and knew I knew little about it. But it came together quite well

Definitely needed help from Google today.

drspouse · 25/05/2022 22:12

I did Google once I had the alternative term, I should have managed without!

Enough clues in the starting text to get off to a good start :)

AliasGrape · 25/05/2022 22:39

Needed google at the end - had the first word but couldn’t find the second.

PortiaFimbriata · 25/05/2022 22:58

74 today

Could be better given that I'm moderately well informed about the subject matter. I got the second word before the first word, which is definitely the easier way round.

I solved today's Redactle (#49) in 98 guesses with an accuracy of 51.02%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Needed Google for the second word but quite pleased with the words I could find on my own considering it's not within my field of knowledge as a subject in general.

Sometimes knowing a bit about the subject sends you down frustratingly many false roads before you find the right one!

LadyOfTheCanyon · 26/05/2022 02:58

I knew yesterdays unbeatable high of 2 would have me crashing down today! Grin

The first word took ages and then the second word also took ages 😅 but I got it without Google in the end

A tiny bit of help from Google!

WheelofLife · 26/05/2022 09:16

338 guesses and 57%. Some googling of related words that I already had just to expand my vocabulary so not feeling particularly pleased with myself

There were a few obvious words I thought I'd used, once I actually put them in the answer came quickly.

I wasn't going to play this any more as I'm doing far too many of these type of puzzles now when I really ought to be studying, but I missed it! Quite satisfying today although I did need google at the end.

Spotted a big clue in the text and got it 3 guesses from there

suckingonchillidogs · 26/05/2022 17:21

Got todays in 50 guesses with 74% accuracy. A few lucky guesses to get on the right track.

ScrambledSmegs · 26/05/2022 17:24

Does it reset at 5pm every day? I thought it was midnight for some reason. Anyway lucky guess - I got a relevant word quite early and basically tried every word that I associated with that subject!

I’m quite annoyed because I knew what it was for quite a few tries but couldn’t remember the word and didn’t want to Google.

iklboo · 26/05/2022 17:51

I didn't do yesterday's what was it?
