I'm a bad comrade. I got realism on a lark because the article was looking like a style or genre, figured it was widespread in the Soviet Union, but didn't think to try the s-word even after trying communist, Marxist, etc.

If the solution was plural, I guessed the singular. If the solution was singular, I guessed the plural. Either way, I guessed the wrong form and then faffed about some fifty guesses before thinking "oh shit I should guess the other form of the word"

I solved Redactle Unlimited #358 in 81 guesses with an accuracy of 88.89% and a time of 01:06:24.totally wrong-footed by this one: thought it had to be a military ruler, *not* a monarch, and the thing about X-speaking countries in the opening paragraph had me thinking the wrong way around as well. also, my desire to keep a 100% score intact kept me from trying risky guesses and ones I was convinced were incorrect anyway, like cough… “monarch” and the country in question, which fit and had crossed my mind (including this particular leader). I could have just tried it, if only to rule it out, but no, had to keep that clean sheet. garbage tactics!
