Thanks @InMySpareTime just checking in for tomorrow!

Doubleraspberry · 26/06/2022 16:49

DH is now over 300 and can’t get higher than 854. The poor man - it really is not very helpful!

InMySpareTime · 26/06/2022 16:57

@Doubleraspberry I took 452 guesses today, he's not (yet) as stuck as I was.

He’s gone down a totally unhelpful path! I don’t want to spoiler anyone still doing it by saying the things he’s been convinced it relates to but it’s very funny.

I genuinely thought he’d get it far quicker than I did because it’s something he knows quite a bit about but the red herrings have done for him.

Lotsofpots · 26/06/2022 17:47

50 guesses in and not even a tepid.

Lotsofpots · 26/06/2022 17:49

Oh. Got a green straight after that and then had the answer within 6.

Quite cross with myself! I was on 999 for about 80 guesses and somehow managed to get everything but the target word. If you’d have asked me I’d probably have said I’d tried it. So had my brain been activated I should have been well under 100 and I actually could feasibly have been under 40 given my first greens. What a start to the week!

That was interesting 😆. I had to make a couple of lateral thinking hops to get there. Quite pleased with that though.

InMySpareTime · 27/06/2022 12:27

@MrsLargeEmbodied 930 is good (target) with a spin.
