Wanted to show my gf how the game works today but we both got it in 2 almost immediately so it was a bad example

hahahah here I was coming to brag that I got this one in 11 guesses ... y'all are so great at this. I had to spend a few guesses determining it wasn't German or French -- Being and Time or one of the many "thing and thing" titles by Foucault

Tbf I wouldn't even say I did a good job I just saw 3 and 5 and the first thing that came to me was war and peace. If it was literally anything else I would have been stumped

sarahell: Being and Time is Heidegger, no?

my first guess was tom and jerry

highlight an entire paragraph of a redactle work in progress (this was in Linux Firefox) and it looks like the cover of autechre's quaristice
― koogs, Sunday, 19 June 2022 01:07 (three years ago)
xp Leee written in German, yeah?
― sarahell, Sunday, 19 June 2022 01:53 (three years ago)
Oh sorry, I think I misread your post! But yes, that's the case.

Got it in 7 which is by far my best result so far.
Boy what a terrible song. Haven't heard it or thought about it in ages but it did pop into my consciousness when I counted the letters in this redactle.
― Hans Holbein (Chinchilla Volapük), Sunday, 19 June 2022 06:52 (three years ago)
Redactle #73 in 5, 80% accuracy. Totally useless first three guesses then it came to me.

1! It was the only interdisciplinary branch of computer science and engineering I could think of and there were an awful lot of five-letter words kicking off sections further down.
I've never managed to ace it three days in a row, so tomorrow will be a slog, I'm sure.

messed around for a while there then went for the three letter acronym guessed e thinking bce which was wrong but did give me ????-e. couldn't be wall-e, right? it was. and the tla turned out to be r.u.r...
― koogs, Sunday, 19 June 2022 17:49 (three years ago)
mike, it was the only interdisciplinary branch of computer science and engineering I could think of - how on earth did you figure out those words though?!11 for me, also via wall-e via e, after being at a loss when film, novel, book and song all were duds. l almost tried play, don't know if I'd have got r.u.r. if I had.

Ledge, some days I can see those patterns and some days I can’t see anything in the opening paragraph. I think we’ve had that particular 17-letter adjective before?
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 19 June 2022 20:02 (three years ago)
the top paragraph did look very black today, and long black words at that.
― koogs, Sunday, 19 June 2022 20:17 (three years ago)
the mysterious pink text at the bottom remains a mystery.

#74 in 95, 78.95% accuracy, not on my game. It is 5.50am, is my excuse.

I solved today's Redactle (#74) in 201 guesses with an accuracy of 54.73%.
Had Wall-E at guess #31 but didn't solve it for another 170 guesses

Gave up on today's.
― Antifa Lockhart (Leee), Monday, 20 June 2022 17:21 (three years ago)
92, cheated. never heard of this guy
― donna rouge, Monday, 20 June 2022 17:21 (three years ago)
186, cheated on the second word.
― mike t-diva, Monday, 20 June 2022 17:22 (three years ago)
I'm stuffed on today's. I know it's a German philosopher and I've got half of it, but I'd need to accidentally find myself in the appropriate section of a large bookshop to solve this.
― Michael Jones, Monday, 20 June 2022 17:23 (three years ago)
81, 33% cheated after going through every 20th century German philosopher I could think
― papal hotwife (milo z), Monday, 20 June 2022 18:40 (three years ago)
151 and i did exactly the same thing as milo z
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Monday, 20 June 2022 19:03 (three years ago)
Yeah, I got that he was a German philosopher called Max something by turn 20 but I can't think of one that fits
― Alba, Monday, 20 June 2022 19:11 (three years ago)
Yup gave up and googled at 34, after deciding I was never going to put in enough German Jewish surnames to get it
― Alba, Monday, 20 June 2022 19:15 (three years ago)
I can't even figure out what two of his three branches of philosophy were, and i studied it.

this bit First period (Jena, Munich, Gottingen and World War I) rendered oddly. had the last two characters as letters

there are commas in there not displaying as commas

For a while I was sure I know who it was but couldn't remember their name, now I'm sure it's someone else but I can't remember their name either
― TWELVE Michelob stars?!? (seandalai), Monday, 20 June 2022 21:53 (three years ago)
I finally remembered their name, it wasn't them :(
― TWELVE Michelob stars?!? (seandalai), Monday, 20 June 2022 22:48 (three years ago)
back to trying random short German first names - It's not Uli or Ulf
― TWELVE Michelob stars?!? (seandalai), Monday, 20 June 2022 22:50 (three years ago)
I got the first word but it still gave me nothing, so I gave up...never heard of the guy
― TWELVE Michelob stars?!? (seandalai), Monday, 20 June 2022 23:11 (three years ago)
Today's seems to be cut off partway through. I solved it but the article is incomplete.
― joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Tuesday, 21 June 2022 16:29 (three years ago)
yeah I was confused when egg and eggs didn't show up at all, plus really low hit counts on other related terms
― rob, Tuesday, 21 June 2022 16:40 (three years ago)
Yeah, it seems to be an embedded sound file which has broken the article.
I thought it was a geographical feature at first but the range of lengths should have been a pointer to fauna.

quite terrible thought it was a country / city for ~90% of that

Again I am sure I know what it is but I don't know what it's called (I have the second word but the first may be unknowable)
