Good one today!

This was a bit synonym/antonym-y, I sort of had to flip tactics a few times to get there.

I solved Semantle #258 in 109 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.50. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 11.33. semantle.com/

So many synonyms! I had 982 by guess 17 and almost every word from there was a green, it was just a matter of hitting the right one 😆

Took a while to get off the high tepids.

That came as a surprise! I only had two greens with the highest being 540 and was just getting tepids, then I guessed 973 which led me straight to the target on my next go!

I only had one totally unrelated low green - I have no idea what made me put that word. It's not one I regularly use. Weird!

It took ages to get going on a route and then that turned out to be a bit of a tangent.
