I got this one without cheating but my browser screwed up and didn't expose the solved page before I refreshed the page and lost all my stats. I think I got it in around 50?

Maybe this is a sign of my broken brain at the moment (I'm getting over a cold) but I saw the 3-letter second word and didn't think it was a regnal number because no way there could be a hundred of whoever it was.

Merry Chrimbo redactlers!
33 guesses with 69.7% accuracy and a time of 00:11:59

Strong clues within Worked out it was a regent relly quickly but then had no idea which era/numerals, and also the King Arthur bit was quite the red herring.

A quick 10, was hoping for it to take a bit longer tbh (we are at the “crap telly with the in-laws” stage of the day).

the a, REDACTED, and REDACTED bit immediately pointed to math, and then it was a matter of figuring out if it was a formula or equation.

I guess that's my Xmas miracle used up.

I was on the right track once I had mammal and australian but I wasnt thinking high level enough. Got it by reeling off animal types eventually but it was flailing.

didn’t have a clue until I got ‘water’ at #120, and even then it took me quite a while

I often guess water when I have no idea, this time it was my second guess, then 'behind a dam' seemed likely in the first para.

ledge, Tuesday, 27 December 2022 18:33 (two years ago)

54 guesses with 55.56% accuracy and a time of 00:14:58

I also had water and still flailed around til I got river/lake then it clicked.

papal hotwife (milo z), Wednesday, 28 December 2022 00:21 (two years ago)

saw something that made me think coastal for the first guess, couple of narrowing down misses, dam got me to lake got me to reservoir

papal hotwife (milo z), Wednesday, 28 December 2022 00:24 (two years ago)

18/25 really had no idea and got there weirdly with "water" + "french"

Zoology IS in my wheelhouse and so I have heard of the third word before, but reading through that first paragraph now, mammalogists should be better at making things.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Wednesday, 28 December 2022 20:22 (two years ago)

I have worked this out except for the first bloody word!

Tough one (since the article is so short) but managed it without cheating. Voting but not so country-oriented really baffled me.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Thursday, 29 December 2022 19:37 (two years ago)

Got the first word first guess, and thought oh hey, maybe I'll get an easy win!

LOL Nope. Ended up having to cheat to get the middle word.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 30 December 2022 07:10 (two years ago)

OK what was it?

ledge, Friday, 30 December 2022 17:01 (two years ago)

if you click 'new game' and choose today's game it'll give you a URL with a parameter in it, q999999.... Search for that parameter.

once the ‘United Nations’ penny dropped, with ESCO attached (even though “nation” didn’t give me any hits, I had to enter “nations” for it to work) I was golden

I had to cheat today as it's the technical term for something I know of in more everyday terms.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Saturday, 31 December 2022 21:05 (two years ago)

Yeah same. I knew what this was, by all the other sentences I'd revealed. I'd never heard of this term for it though. Not a word I know at all.

But that was only after I was googling the nitrogen cycle in plants and spotted a long word and tried it on the off chance, lol.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 1 January 2023 03:58 (two years ago)

never heard of the word or what it signifies.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Sunday, 1 January 2023 19:14 (two years ago)

139 guesses, about 12 hours! very frustrating.

a typical wikipedia opening para which is technical, precise, correct, and utterly bewildering. I basically had everything I needed after 80 guesses but was stuck thinking about technical psychological terms.

another one where 'water' was the key.

What was yesterdays, I didnt end up solving it! Loads of references to god and faith and yet I couldnt figure it out.

It's the opposite of one of those things. You can still play out here: https://redactle-unlimited.com/#Q34302

for todays:
You solved Redactle Unlimited in 62 guesses with 38.71% accuracy and a time of 00:18:51!

LOL I had the answer right in my face, but had been thrown by 2 things:
WILL PROB GIVE AWAY ANS WARNING
I mispelled Celsius and wondered why the fuck it wasnt in the article.
I was thinking in metric terms so the answer didnt occur to me despite staring me in the face and having the j word equivalent.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 233 guesses with an accuracy of 39.48% and a time of 00:44:17.

oh lol, so my ‘duh’ moment last night proved right after all, only I had spelled it “datedly” (ending in -y instead of -ie, which gave me just 5 hits). in hindsight, this should actually have been pretty easy to solve
