______ the ____________: Redactle

41 even though my first guess was chemistry.

#99 in 108 (7 hours and 53 minutes... not full time...) 49.07%

'chemistry' and 'electrical' after about 20, took another 90 to think to stick them together after trying every electrical component i could think of

#99 was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemistry

btw, the Redactle Unlimited rendered #99 better than the original did

I solved today's Redactle (#100) in 11 guesses with an accuracy of 63.64%.

Got it in 6 with the aid of a big giveaway halfway down, I should have thought harder about the second word - spoiler tagging in case of unconscious 'second' hint!

i got both yesterdays and todays in 69 which i wish could say feels nice, but i had to cheat yesterday because i was in no way gonna get that big word and today i just floundered nowhere near the answer for ages until i realized i had... actually uncovered most of a sentence that i didn't notice while spamming? then i realized what the 3-letter word had to be, and the long word (and then i guessed first and third before second because i am a not-counting idiot)

Got #100 immediately (I took a punt on second being a more popular article than zeroth). First quick solve in a while.

but yeah i think the < halfway down broke something and showed half a sentence that it shouldn't've

64 (65%) got to the church in time (at 52), then it went fast

I got mosque after 4, at a loss now. maybe the name of a famous mosque is lurking in my brain somewhere, maybe not.

I cheated. I have heard of it, would never have guessed it.

it’s one of the most beautiful buildings I’ve ever seen in my life, the interior specifically

i have the last line of the first paragraph which says exactly what it is (after 73). i have 9 hours to remember the title words.

#101 was https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagia_Sophia

name did ring a bell but nope...

also, with unlimited, i pressed "daily" several times and got different articles, none of them matching the original. the numbers weren't working either.

and today it's not even giving me that option. but does want to waste cycles on animating the title.

37 - a bit dim, physics in one but didn't guess force till 27, and shouldn't have taken another ten after that. i blame the heat.

I can't load this page anymore ;____;

Ah nm I figured out how to go there anyway even though my browser is unhappy about it.

in one, getting a bit bored of all these science ones.

I am too, but that's because I end up having to cheat (I needed 154 guesses though).

flogging a maths horse for 96 guesses and getting nowhere

167 to solve. i wonder how Shaggy 2 Dope would have done on this one

how do they fucking work?

#103 was https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism

No, I think it was without the -ism?

i did wonder because the text wasn't quite how i remembered it. i had redactle unlimited still open in a tab but it refreshed when i clicked into it and gave me a 500 and then was gone

moar physics

one again, good for my stats but come on. i didn't even scroll past the first para.

158 and a cheat because i have never heard of this

imagine how much smarter id be if after completing redactle i actually read the articles. never gonna happen lol im gonna stay dumb

³⁰ here. not sure why it did that...

i also found out there are two redactle unlimited sites, one with a hyphen, one without. but one of them doesn't mirror the current game.

Surprised to get this in 46 because I have never knowingly heard of this thing, but I uncovered enough to make an educated guess. Guessing the "____-" in the second paragraph was a big help.

#103 was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnet
#104 was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiparticle

I did not need to see the photos in the Wiki entry for #105.

285. Had to cheat by looking at my child's vaccination records. (Somehow that seemed more honourable than just googling). Not sure I would have remembered it on my own.

I don't know if the articles are chosen from the list at random, but to my taste there is too much science lately... give us some history, geography, arts, humanities...

Oops, thought I had hidden that whole thing. I guess you can't have paragraph breaks within hidden tags? Sorry for that vague clue, however vague it may be.

41, 56.1%. took me 30 to get disease, up till then I had no clue, I'd forgotten that _. ________ often indicates a bacterium name. Then I had to think of a ten letter disease, I discounted the answer at first till I remembered it has two Hs.

(put a space on any blank lines and it'll hide the entire thing)

i knew there was something i had to do today... 18 minutes...

(remembered i had started it at about 3am this morning, got me just enough to cheat)

Today is another bust, because although I know what this is, I'm never going to be able to guess the family of freshwater fish carp belong to. So I'm just going to look it up and save my evening.

yes, I got all the first sentence apart from the title in 31, no chance of getting any further.

Abandoned hope at guess 103, and rightly so.
