I’m stuck on 998, which I got on guess 3. And no luck since. Is there no way this game can’t torture me?!

@Doubleraspberry what do you 998?

I’ve tried all the things I would 998! Obviously I’m missing one.

More generic

More generic than 833?

You would 998 an 833 a target.

Thank you. Why didn’t my brain go in that direction!

Settled down on a long distance train. Thought this would keep me occupied a while...

Am I on the right track here? It all seems a bit random.

@ApolloandDaphne
Who would set a 961? What might it be part of?

I've used 6 hints and got to 991 and still have no idea. I have put on everything around the clue I was given and have got nowhere.

@ApolloandDaphne a short time dedicated to 991

Thank you!!! Why did I not think of that word before??

Another frustrating one for me - fixated on 881 and went backwards for a long time. Always pleasing to get there in the end.

I should have got that sooner, I got 957 at guess 4 and got sidetracked.
When I got it I actually said "Oh! So sorry TARGET, how could I have forgotten you!"

I quite enjoyed that one and no googling needed it just took a while to hit the right one.

Well that was a fun one. I wasn't expecting the answer as I was definitely on a particular theme. My highest green before the answer was 944

I was on the wrong track there!

Ha! Very much the same for me. Felt I should have got it a bit sooner but enjoyed the potter and didn’t find this frustrating. It’s one of DH’s regular starter words so hoping today might be a hole in one for him!
