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.

I had to cheat to get the other spelling because I only know of it by the other one -- didn't think to just take the 's' off the end.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 168 guesses with an accuracy of 55.36% and a time of 00:35:27. had to cheat. only knew the word ‘trough’ for this (because in Dutch it’s ‘trog’), but wouldn’t have been able to recall the first word anyway -although yes, I’ve heard of it

I have no patience and jumped straight in, which might've saved me 40 guesses if I'd noticed the number in the hundreds of thousands in the first paragraph. Instead, I spent a long time wandering in a musical cul de sac. At least I recognized in the end that REDACTED am REDACTED looked like a German city.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 30 guesses with an accuracy of 80% and a time of 00:50:50. i had a horrible time nailing this one down.

ledge, Saturday, 10 December 2022 21:14 (one year ago) link

81 guesses/71%.In hindsight it was FAR more obvious than I thought and there were way too many contextual clues I missed.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 11 December 2022 00:53 (one year ago) link

9/9 57 seconds

"am" in the first line told me German, city looked obvious then I just had to remember a German city with nine letters

Given the general subject matter, I did not expect to get this without cheating, but I managed it! I've never actually heard of noble metals, but once I got "metals," I just kind of threw "noble" out there because I've heard of "noble gases."

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Monday, 12 December 2022 22:57 (one year ago) link

45 guesses 48% accurate. Nae bad.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 13 December 2022 05:01 (one year ago) link

got the second word after 5, cheated after 60 for the first. yeah I've heard of the gases, didn't think to try that word.

ledge, Tuesday, 13 December 2022 08:23 (one year ago) link

also got the second word. the first one eludes me.

I did see Xhaka crotchgrab (breastcrawl), Tuesday, 13 December 2022 08:56 (one year ago) link

Tough one today! The key was to finally guess wave, after which the answer came pretty quickly. It just took 300+ guesses to get wave.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Tuesday, 13 December 2022 21:45 (one year ago) link

I got it in 35 but I sort of cheated: once I'd worked out sine wave I just looked up sine wave and typed associated words in til I hit the answer :/

I’ve got everything, except the name

I did see Xhaka crotchgrab (breastcrawl), Wednesday, 14 December 2022 23:03 (one year ago) link

bc: What if I told you it happens to be spelled like a math term?

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Thursday, 15 December 2022 01:36 (one year ago) link

ugh - I thought I had tried “Angle” - but maybe it was the one variation I forgot to enter?

is today’s game the most nondescript base text ever?

lol I can't argue with that.

I spent a long time thinking it was specifically about moss, even though it had only 6 hits but was featured prominently in the first paragraph.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 78 guesses with an accuracy of 52.56% and a time of 00:25:49.

…but I cheated, because I guessed ‘peat’ at 28, and then figured it might very well be something I could only think of the Dutch word for, so I decided to search its English translation, and bingo!
sort of regret not trying a bit longer, because it might have come to me at some point - perhaps

I did see Xhaka crotchgrab (breastcrawl), Thursday, 15 December 2022 18:42 (one year ago) link

73, a tough one! was flailing for most of it - water, plants, dead plants? hair, organs, skin?! finally got fuel, then peat.

no spoiler but if you're getting close, try different forms of words you might have already guessed.

the first 20 are always sentence filler - be are were there their they etc.

OK this one is interesting: it displays very differently in Redactle as opposed tothe Unlimited version. I was confused the other week when someone mentioned italics - redactle.com does NOT indicate italics, and in this one isnt displaying degree symbols and & signs.

I mean I'm assuming its the same answer? but it looks really weird

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 December 2022 04:10 (one year ago) link

(that whole block with all the same word over and over ... isnt in the redactle.com version? Im so confused)

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 December 2022 04:13 (one year ago) link

I'd recommend switching over to Unlimited if for no other reason than that it's being actively worked on and improved (at least ostensibly), whereas the original's creator has completely vanished.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Sunday, 18 December 2022 05:18 (one year ago) link

Had to cheat to get the middle word of the answer. 119 guesses with 60.5% accuracy and a time of 01:11:28!

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 December 2022 07:26 (one year ago) link

I'm pretty sure the answer was the same in both places - my bookmark was to the original but i swapped to unlimited and they were both the same 3 word title but i didn't look too far down

i didn't see ledge's left left left stuff. is it parsing the math source (mathml? latex?) as words?

koogs, Sunday, 18 December 2022 08:13 (one year ago) link

yeah something like that. a complete red herring - i was thinking is it instructions for logo, or a turing machine?
