Semantle 15

[InMySpareTime]

For players of the most frustrating semantics game this side of Cemantle:

semantle.com/

iIve got everything from 975 to 999 and my mind is clearly just not functioning

It's very like 991 but different. It's a health issue if it's too high.

Have you got 977?

I gave up

I wouldn't have got it because I had a misspelling of it - which the game accepted and scored with one of those ??? scores. And put it in in the mid 990s.

So frustrating - but at least I know why

It's a very frustrating game at times. It was a funny word today for sure.

Oh and that was guess 249 so not great - but my last guess was 60 guesses later by which time I lost the will to live.

I started about 1 o'clock this afternoon and have tried on and off all day

Well done to all those of you who got it

It sure is - but I enjoy it on the whole
