A 1-guess for me too! First time.

Ccoffee · 02/08/2022 17:14

33 guesses.

InMySpareTime · 02/08/2022 17:23

• You solved it in 128 guesses
• Your accuracy was 36.72%
• You have solved 104 consecutive Redactles

I got the bracket quickly and knew it wasn't going to be that easy. It's actually easier than I made it, in the end.

I'm struggling to get a handle on it too. Have revealed something which should help but googling is drawing a blank.

Went nowhere for a long time then suddenly cracked it. Surprised accuracy was 30 % it felt much lower.

MsMarvellous · 02/08/2022 20:58

Needed the clue on the hint thread!

I solved today's Redactle (#118) in 42 guesses with an accuracy of 30.95%.

That was one of those where you plug in random words for ages and then it suddenly comes together.

ErrolTheDragon · 02/08/2022 22:42

The general area was obvious from part of the original text, took longer than it should to find words that fit the lengths. (I've not actually been pondering this since 5pm!Grin)

Once again the unredacted text - or more specifically the format of it - proved useful.

blardyblahblah · 03/08/2022 12:19

Not sure how I guessed this so quickly.... just the pattern in the sentences and a lot of luck!

Bah! Was obvious really. DS got it in 10.

InMySpareTime · 03/08/2022 12:31

@blardyblahblah is the third word in brackets not part of the title then?
I thought you needed the whole title to unredact the article.

blardyblahblah · 03/08/2022 12:33

Good point, didn't notice that at the time! The word in brackets came up after my two words so doesn't need to be guessed, no.
