was that alert directed at me, Leee?

Yup! I remember you wondering when we'd get an article on food. Nice job on #308, which was a lot of fun to uncover.

Probably could've shaved a dozen guesses off if I'd thought about why Romance and Slavic both had so many hits.

ah lol, that’s right!

I guess I should have been much more appreciative for the chard that I got!

I had a pretty good idea of the last two words, but if I'd bothered checking the letter count of my guesses I might've aced it today.

I feel pretty lucky to have gotten this in as few as this is the type of article that I usually have trouble with. Water, again, was the big hint.

water, indeed. couldn’t think of the right English word after I got two related words earlier on and thought it would be a more specific word anyway, and then it took another 20 guesses for it to come to me

Strangely I got the second word relatively quickly @123, and only got to the first word after trying different names of political units (duchy, republic, kingdom, etc.).

BC: I think that it was History of South America?

Also, I'm not particularly fussed because I live in the triple digits so much (I actually prefer chipping away at the article), but maybe we should be more careful about calling other people's performance as bad? TBF I didn't get malice out of that comment but I kind of want to make sure that everyone feels free to share how they did in the game without judgment.

I got heart @60 but disease came back with a lot of hits so I went off in that direction before trying study @209, at which point I should've scrolled back to the intro paragraph.

So maybe ledge was right about me. ;)

forgetting to scroll back to the intro paragraph, easy mistake to make, feeling that - not today tho!

considering i spent all last week on a ward named for this you'd think i'd do better than 41 but pretty sure i just play this game wrong!

on the wrong track at first, geometry, then physics, and then suddenly a new trajectory became clear - but I just entered the first word that came to mind in this context, without thinking that it would be the solution

no hits for physics but I tried 'force' anyway, then 'gravity' looked plausible.
