I got 995/1000 on my 14th guess for 103. It took me til 36 to get the word.

Yeah the actual word was absolutely not what I was expecting when I hit the final submit button.

After being stuck on 995 for dozens of guesses, I hit on 998/1000. Then I immediately made the unconfident winning guess which turned out to be the actual answer.

I tried it and got a couple but I think the algorithm is still pretty rough.

80 Wordle streak though.

I hate this game so much

75 guesses in... I start just trying anything too fast lol





ETA: I just got it in 76... I guessed a version of the word 56th and it was only 608/1000

I’m on a lucky streak. The closest I got before getting it was 944/1000.

I solved Semantle #104 in 31 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.44. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #17. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 15.14.

Finally played for the first time after seeing this thread for past few weeks. Got #104 in 26 guesses. I’m guessing I should quit now because it looks like this might be the closest I ever get!

So my top words for 103 was stuff like icy, fog, weather, etc.

Still confused how they resembled landing at all.

Doesn’t semantle use news articles for its algorithm? Those all describe weather conditions probably used to describe aircraft landings.

Yeah I was going to say the same. All of those can be prefix-like or descriptive to the word landing

Lucked into getting it in 56.

Guess 21 was 806/1000.

Maybe I should have got it quicker. Oh well, I'll take it.

Thanks

I do wordle and chess.com daily chess puzzle so might as well work semantle into the mix!

I still can’t believe I randomly got semantle in one a while back.
