No - I knew it was a German philosopher who influenced Pope Jean Paul the something, at which point I googled. Never heard of him.

Interesting one today (#76). Lots of misses for words that would usually be associated with this subject!

faw2009 · 22/06/2022 14:25

Today's took me 228 guesses. Don't even want to think about the German philosopher one the day before!

Much better than yesterday - no Googling (or DuckDuckGoing) required.

I solved today's Redactle (#76) in 35 guesses with an accuracy of 42.86%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Although, I put in an two letter abbreviation which gave me a return of 0 occurrences but it’s in the text at least 3 times?

Also noticed that the current wiki article is quite different to the Redactle version now (was intrigued as the Redactle version seems chopped off midway).

90 guesses today (no.76) and only 42% accuracy. It took ages before I knew what sort of thing it was.

I forgot to look at yesterday's. Having seen the answer it's probably just as well as I'd never have got it!

I was stuck on the one the day before (which I assume from a PP was robotics). I was going round in circles for ages not getting anywhere and then ran out of time.

Took ages to get the subject, then tried to be too clever and missed the obvious 🤦‍♀️

33 for me today, and that was luck, wasn't expecting it to be the answer.

But at least I wasn't googling for 5 letter birds (mental exhaustion is my excuse there).

I wasnt expecting it to give me the bracketed word.

Etinoxaurus · 22/06/2022 17:31

82 guesses 28% accuracy. A shocker!

Chikapu · 22/06/2022 17:38

91 guesses with 24% accuracy, very poor. The article seems weirdly cut off again at the bottom.

I thought it was weird that the bracketed word popped up.

Took ages to get anywhere at all, then a bit slow on the uptake.

I don't know how you all got it so quickly! None of my usual words came up with anything. And the few I got weren't much help. Nothing was googleable. So I had to plod on until I got one word that kind of helped and trawl through several wiki pages till I hit the jackpot!

Took forever to hit the right area, but moved OK once I found it

I got the general theme ok, but didn't think my second guess was going to be the target!
