99% of time there are no clues,
lucky to find any tbh

FlippyFloppyFlappy · 28/06/2022 12:05

I saw the clue, it sent me down the wrong path entirely and gave me my worst ever results 😭😂😬
(was actually a good clue in hindsight 🤔).

InMySpareTime · 28/06/2022 12:10

It was (as intended) a cryptic clue to help someone who already had an idea of the subject. It doesn't make sense if you try to use the clue from cold.

☝🏼 You're right about that 😂

take it as a bonus! @Dreikanter

It really wasn’t (until I finally happened in the answer - then it made sense)!

73 guesses today, 52% accuracy. I got the gist early on but it took a little while to narrow it down. I forgot to turn plurals on which wasted a few guesses.

I solved today's Redactle (#82) in 97 guesses with an accuracy of 35.05%. Played at www.redactle.com/

I had no idea until the last word I played, then it made sense.

ErrolTheDragon · 28/06/2022 16:54

It'd be quite hard to give properly cryptic clues for this and pedantle, unlike the c/semantle where you can do it by 'green number'.

ErrolTheDragon · 28/06/2022 17:04

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 1 guesses with an accuracy of 100.00%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Oh I thought I'd done well until I read other peoples! Got it in 9 guesses with 55% accuracy

Wasted a few guesses there but glad I can move on with the evening.

suckingonchillidogs · 28/06/2022 17:14

Well done Errol though - very impressive!

Happy with this as I do mess about with filler words until inspiration strikes.

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 29 guesses with an accuracy of 65.52%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Nice one today, especially after yesterday's nightmare!

Chikapu · 28/06/2022 17:23

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 94 guesses with an accuracy of 35.11%. Took me way too long today, just couldn't get the gist of it.

weebarra · 28/06/2022 17:30

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 13 guesses with an accuracy of 53.85%. Played at www.redactle.com/

That was unexpected!

BIWI · 28/06/2022 17:33

It's really hard to give clues for redactle that are helpful without being too obvious or too cryptic. But I disagree that they should be by PM. The whole point of posting a hint is to help other posters.

I do agree, though, that perhaps hinting should be left till later in the day.

ApolloandDaphne · 28/06/2022 17:35

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 4 guesses with an accuracy of 75.00%. Played at www.redactle.com/

A better effort!

gillybombilly · 28/06/2022 17:40

I solved today’s Redactle (#83) in 44 guesses with an accuracy of 51.2%.

Not brilliant, but after my last few hopeless days I’ll settle for that.

ErrolTheDragon · 28/06/2022 17:42

Is there some way to write a clue so that people wouldn't inadvertently see it on their watched list? I use the app not the browser so I don't see snippets of the post.

takingmytimeonmyride · 28/06/2022 17:45

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 14 guesses with an accuracy of 71.43%. Played at www.redactle.com/

My best score yet!

LittlePickleHead · 28/06/2022 17:47

Feel like I should have got this sooner

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 40 guesses with an accuracy of 42.50%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Dreikanter · 28/06/2022 17:51

I solved today's Redactle (#83) in 16 guesses with an accuracy of 31.25%. Played at www.redactle.com/

Wasn’t expecting that.

I use the browser on a phone, and my Threads I’m On list generally shows the first 2 lines of a post.
