got today's in 17, but my third guess (first green guess) was 998/1000 LOL. I'm ashamed that it then took me another 14 guesses

first time playing... I feel dumber now.

quote:

I solved Semantle #104 in 110 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 7.02. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #25. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 31.39 (772/1000). LINK


I feel like I tried about 40 synonyms before the correct answer

one thing you'll noticed, and today is a good example, is that many times these words will have two definitions and semantle only focuses on one of them

Game #105 will likely be frustrating for many...the algorithm is odd on this one.

Took me 108 guesses with LOTS of green.

It took me 72 guesses for this one (105). Tons of green guesses, but there are so many options in that general category.

Guess 19…

I shockingly hit on 985/1000 on guess 2. It’s a word I frequently try early on.

After reading this post, it helped me expand my guesses beyond what I assumed and to also include the general “vicinity”.

This one is frustrating. I’ve narrowed it down so much I’m not sure how many more words I can guess

Todays was hard. I introduced my coworker to it and she was the one to get it.

man... It took 64 guesses until I had a green and it was only 227/1000


got it in 125 but I still have no real clue how this works. I guessed words that were very similar to the answer but no dice.

I’m only 3 in but this shite is hard. I got this one in 91 tries. I had 985 at 40 and 998 at 79..can’t wait for the next game. I like that new ones start at 7. I’ll try and sleep on it.

I basically gave up on it; I have a ton of words within 1-10 points of 1000 lol

omg, I almost guessed "the word" yesterday and then had to go and forgot to try that word



I had guessed "hat", "sunglasses", "scarf", "goggles", and other similar words. SMH.

I got 106 in 17 guesses. My 10th guess was 994/1000, and I lucked out from there.

I'm hating today's game.

I've found 94 green words so far.
I'm 614 guesses in.
My best green is 989/1000.

That is not a typo. 614.

I need a hobby.

Thanks! I'll take it.

I'll be sure to let you know my numbers if/when I finally get it.


EDIT: Guess 740 was the magic one. Still never had a better green than 989/1000.


Well, time to start my day.

That is seriously impressive I’m glad you got it!

Just did 107 in 69. It felt like a lot more guesses than that.

Got it in 36 today.

Y’all know you can ask for a hint if you get stuck?
