I don't know how you guess that many words that quickly!

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

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

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.

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

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?

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

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 9 guesses with an accuracy of 77.78% and a time of 00:11:26.

so the 'as food' section was somewhat misleading.

ha! I also solved Redactle Unlimited in 9 guesses, but with an accuracy of 55.56% and a time of 00:03:12.

Congratulations! You solved Redactle Unlimited in 29 guesses with 37.93% accuracy and a time of 00:07:26!

The low accuracy was cos "food" was one of my early matches, complete red herring!

Don’t think I’ll better this!

after scanning the introductory paragraph my provisional answer was A***** F*******, but then that big fat clue came along.

Taking a break from the tourist club to join the golfers today!

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 2 guesses with an accuracy of 100% and a time of 00:02:48.

bit slow, I shouldn't do it at the same time as bath time.

I should NOT have taken as long as I did to get this one considering there was a blatant album name clue.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 59 guesses with an accuracy of 74.58% and a time of 00:19:32.

had no idea where this was going, I got ‘writer’, but that was clearly not their main occupation. but tried ‘Chicago’ and that triggered that very occupation for some reason

47/64, 4:41

got sidetracked by writer but nothing related came up with that and lucked into architect

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 50 guesses with an accuracy of 70% and a time of 00:48:43.

one of those ones where I go 'writer, artist, politician... what the fuck other occupations are there?'. got designer at 40. 'what the fuck do designers design?'

I had no idea who it was and shouldnt have clicked on the clues here cos that immediately gave it away haha.

that is why we hide them, I guess

I couldnt help myself! lol

Cheated today, got the second and fourth word fairly quickly but was never going to get the first.

Cheated too, as that first word is, as far as I can tell, a proper noun.

I kind of regret hiding that in spoiler tags now as I may end up saving people the time getting that word, because here's me:

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 273 guesses with an accuracy of 45.42% and a time of 00:39:01. Play at https://redactle-unlimited.com/

got the second word in 31 (the third in one) don't know where to begin for the first.

decided to cheat after 134 guesses. had the meat and bones at 16, but I was not very likely to ever get the juice.

tried some informed guesses, but it turns out I was on the wrong track for that anyway. had somehow surmised from the text I had unraveled that this would be a newish uni, contrasting with the then-established (religious) one(s). the name definitely rings a bell, but it would never have come to me

Final word in 1, second word in 48, then cheated after 62.

Yeah that one was a non starter for me, had to cheat the first word too.

High level articles like this one are really hard for me!

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 10 guesses with an accuracy of 90% and a time of 00:09:10.

a 'versus' near the end made me think of law.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 15 guesses with an accuracy of 66.67% and a time of 00:07:21.

whoa, didn’t see that one coming! “act” turned out a winner, which led to “commit”, which led to… - but I had no idea it would be the actual answer

51 guesses with 66.67% accuracy and a time of 00:12:05

I was distracted by a sore neck. When I said aloud "what has to do with law and punishment" I immediately went DUHOY.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 18 guesses with an accuracy of 61.11% and a time of 00:06:11.

first three guesses were genus, animal, plant, but getting the right one was pure fluke.

should I stay or should I cheat, that’s the question, because I know this is about the national flower of Mexico, but I don’t think I know what is the national flower of Mexico

so I did google ’mexican flower’ and who’d have thunk, huh?

also, I was dumb for not picking up on the ‘D. xxxx’ type subspecies names that were all over the text

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 4 guesses with an accuracy of 75% and a time of 00:01:48.

wrong dude
