I solved Semantle #254 in 251 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 18.46. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #48. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 60.62 (992/1000). semantle.com/

Finally - got bogged down around 778. Finally found a leap that took me to 911.

InMySpareTime · 11/10/2022 07:34

That is an odd list. After many hundreds of guesses from 996 I took a hint and got 998 Confused
