Semantle 14

[JaneJeffer]

For anyone who still has the will to go on!

872 - is that minus its apostrophe? So we can do that in Semantle?!

I got a hint which was 101 so basically useless but it got me thinking in the right direction somehow. I notice it didn't say I used a hint

I got it fairly quickly with no hints or clues, but am often stumped by words that everyone else gets easily.
I clearly think differently to most.

I suppose a lot of the words on the list could be used together with the target ... but then again so could oodles of others.

That’s good for the thread though - if we can pool talent with different ways of thinking!

I've just seen this

I clearly don't think at all @InMySpareTime

Some of the words seem to have the wrong prefixes.

After guessing bucket on the very first guess yesterday I am stuck on this one!

I must be so close!

It's not 999 @darmar

@JaneJeffer got it thank you!

I solved Semantle #125 in 136 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 10.35. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #9. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 20.00. semantle.com/

If anyone guessed 741 I'll give them £100

😂 I had to look that up. Have honestly never heard that word before. Who the hell uses that instead of the more usual word with the exact same meaning?

The most hints I have ever used, four, and in the end none of them were helpful apart from the first one for getting me off the 893 899 905 track - but not onto the right track.

Not too bad today but hard to get the track of it :)

OK, that was ridiculous. Only got it from a passing mention on here to something. I am now going to look at the list to see how on Earth the other words relate. My only comfort is that this is going to drive DH absolutely round the twist today.
