______ the ____________: Redactle

37

well… let’s all do this one in two.

thanks for telling me to, I managed it

Not me!

240: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 42 guesses with 69.05% accuracy and a time of 00:04:52! I saw the three-letter first name and guessed Ian, then rather stupidly went with McEwan (though I wasn't sure if I'd forgotten his last name). The other shoe finally dropped when I thought harder on why film had so many hits.

239: 38/58 00:03:03
Being Californian, pretty easy for me.

this is why it’s always useful to scroll through the text first, annoying as it often may be, to look for clues. in this case everyone who did that (I would think) would be richly rewarded

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 2 guesses with an accuracy of 100% and a time of 00:09:04.

I guessed it almost straight away but because of the first sentence I got it into my mind that the title began with 'the' so I kept on scrolling, getting more and more confused.

I got it in 28 (lets say 25 though, I made 3 stupid typos, its too early on a saturday). Once I'd input live I got one of the titles and that gave it away.

Got it in 4, woo.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 63 guesses with an accuracy of 80.95% and a time of 00:30:10.

BC you're on a roll lately!

You solved Redactle Unlimited in 150 guesses with 72% accuracy and a time of 00:15:45!

ha ha, I’m not doing badly for sure, but that has everything to do with the subject matter. as soon
as we’re back in the science fields I’ll be helpless like a baby again

Got todays in 28 with 82% accuracy, nice.

AND a raging hangover.

54 despite getting that it was some kind of organisation against climate change after about 10 :/

242: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 47 guesses with 57.45% accuracy and a time of 00:05:46! I guess I should've gotten this more quickly!

lol

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 9 guesses with an accuracy of 66.67% and a time of 00:13:48.

after guessing food I was trying to think what four letter word could go before 'up food'. heat, warm... tart??

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 91 guesses with an accuracy of 85.71% and a time of 00:05:42. oh duh - btw, google-translating the uncovered Chinese character would have provided an instant solution

73 guesses 39.73%. Was utterly flailing even after I worked out food and asia bcs it was almost too obivous lol

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 183 guesses with an accuracy of 75.96% and a time of 00:38:15.

had the first word very in 10, so thought it would be simple, but kept thinking it was about *rb*n expansion. it wasn’t until I tried ‘peasant’ and then ‘farm’ in that context that the answer started unveiling itself.

You solved Redactle Unlimited in 77 guesses with 71.43% accuracy and a time of 00:06:25!

I got it in the opposite order: food at 55, which led to agriculture at 68. Urban came only because I saw "REDACTED, processing, and REDACTED food," so I was thinking that it involved moving farm goods to other places. Still it was a bit of a lucky guess, as I'm not particularly familiar with the term.

39, urban first and yeah the second word was a struggle, got when garden cities popped into my head, which have me 'gardening' in the first line.

I got the other word first so coming here for a clue spoiled it for me lol dohhh.

244: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 30 guesses with 80% accuracy and a time of 00:04:58!

I thought it might be American Gods at first, then I was trying to think of albums with American in their names, despite "rock" showing up only once and "hip" (lol) not showing up at all.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 5 guesses with an accuracy of 100% and a time of 00:11:18.

well, that’s a surprise! scrolling through that long, long text I became ever more clueless. thought it would be a theatre production or something at first (“running from … to …” - actually wasn’t that far off) but then I started leaning more to sporting event (all that “the save” stuff) (also not *that* far off, really). for that reason, my first guesses were ‘match’ (1), ‘game’ (2), ‘football’ (1), and then ‘American’ (99!!!) - aha… so maybe not theatre, but… yeah.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 2 guesses with an accuracy of 100% and a time of 00:02:23.

figured it was a TV show then saw the '______ for a _________' sub title which somehow rang a bell.

How many times need I tell myself not to click on the spoilers here before I work it out myself gah.....

Got it in 26 guesses but mainly cos I knew I was looking for a TV show.

2

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 36 guesses with an accuracy of 61.11% and a time of 00:09:54.

a capitalized ‘Book’ was the giveaway

I got the first word straight away and thought it was the other guy, now I don't know which guy it is thanks to my irreligious upbringing which has surely condemned me to hellfire.

I got the first word but I can tell you that I'm never gonna know the second word on this one it's not even worth guessing

actually it's totally gettable.

(got it in 5)

oh, that's dumb

13

arguably I cheated, I googled a list of 'em and when his name had no epithet i saw the light.

uh yeah I'd say that's cheating, but I guess so is posting about it

Got it in 26, after a slight detour around ancient battles before hitting bible/biblical and then just reeling off 4 letter dudes names lol.

2, my first and probably only ever bullseye

You solved Redactle Unlimited in 99 guesses with 48.48% accuracy and a time of 00:06:24!

Kept it under 100!

Nope, not getting this.

short ones tend to be the hardest, fewer words to guess right.

plus it’s not my subject, I did get as far as to establish that.

maybe I’ll try again later.

15 guesses all 0's so far, wtf.

258 but I should've gotten it a bit sooner lol

seriously, 52 guesses in and still 0 hits. What in the shit.

Got it eventually, but 125 guesses/20% accuracy and a reasonable amount of cheat googling. Bleh.

Quite a fascinating subject matter that said!

got it in 83. I was running out of physics guesses and ideas, put my phone down and went to bed but my subconscious went to work on "without any loss of kinetic energy" and "helium" and came up with it a minute later!

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 8 guesses with an accuracy of 75% and a time of 00:06:45. Meh.

Kevin got it in 18, I had to cheat at 163. We have some, er, different specialties.
