I gave up today as wasn’t in the mood but I will be very impressed if some knows the word I got as a hint - 835!

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 19:58

I'm sure my DCs used that word a lot when they were babies @MoonriseKingdom

I solved Semantle #150 in 77 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -3.18. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #60. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 23.97. semantle.com/

I was quite pleased with that. I got 78 for Cemantle too today so it felt like a good day semantically 😆

EdwinsActsOfKindness · 28/06/2022 21:12

I resorted to a hint to get me into the greens (#1 - and I had to look it up!) but managed to climb up the greens after that!

It took me a while to get a green but once I did I got the word fairly quickly.

I made a meal of that! 133 guesses to even get a green then I got stuck on specific jargon, then realised it was of course a common word so wouldn't be anything that "out there".
You think I'd know by now.

I hinted the bejesus out of todays. Not my field of expertise at all, loads of words I've never heard of.

Brutal! Used lots of hints 😬

Four whole greens. I never use hints though so it was a very, very painful 140 guesses to get close!

MrsLargeEmbodied · 29/06/2022 09:35

made sense - now i have got it!
I solved Semantle #151 in 129 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.78. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #52. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 10.75. semantle.com/

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 29/06/2022 11:12

Did not take an easy route today... (my greens included 841 and 781...)

EdwinsActsOfKindness · 29/06/2022 11:35

A hint gave me 760 which I had to Google for an exact definition. Only had 4 greens before getting it (and then a tonne of colds!)

I solved Semantle #151 in 79 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 3.40. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #44. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 45.27 (760/1000). semantle.com/

EnterACloud · 29/06/2022 12:10

had to resort to hints... let's just say I learnt a lot of new words but I'm not sure any of them really helped as landing on the right answer was very sudden and quite by chance

I solved Semantle #151 in 91 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -2.34. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #44. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 32.27. semantle.com/

Enjoyed that one, seemed logical from my early guesses.

Not logical from where I was going! Had two - incomprehensible - hints, and then had to resort to reddit for a better clue.

Really did not like that today.

squirrelnutkins1 · 29/06/2022 13:46

JaneJeffer · 29/06/2022 13:54

This thread keeps disappearing on me.

I'm stuck. Any helpful hints?

@JaneJeffer 647 measures something. What's the other side of that thing?
