OMG that was tough! And it was something I actually knew about. I can't be doing this every day, m8s! 

Today's is bloody hard.  I'm well over 100 and having a pause

I gave up after 200 but had I realised you had to do plurals separately I would have got it I think.  I narrowed in on the topic v quickly.

There is a tick box on settings that does plurals automatically for you. But wish it did full conjugations/ alternative forms.

This is a lot more fun than Wordle.

I solved today's Redactle (#18) in 22 guesses with an accuracy of 72.73%.

My worst yet, 77. Accuracy 63%. So obvious when I got it.

I solved today's Redactle (#18) in 90 guesses with an accuracy of 45.56%. 

Interesting game. I was completely off track.

21 guesses 66.67% accuracy.

this sounds absolutely shite

I'm pretty sure the codebreakers at Bletchley Park would have done this in one go.

Urgh does anyone else get a really weird sense of nausea/claustrophobia when trying to read the redacted passages?

Oooh got it in 30. Accuracy 56.67%.

Easy when you know it!

101 guesses! 66.67% accuracy. 

I got it in 55 with 63.64% accuracy. Fairly economical but inaccurate. 

How is 63% "inaccurate"? 

It's terrible. More than a third of my guesses were complete gibberish. 

I solved today's Redactle (#19) in 144 guesses with an accuracy of 34.72%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

Another disaster- 259, ended up guessing it by firing vaguely related words at it and learning two of them fitted together. Learned a bit but doing worse by the day.  Impressed by 144.

My brother just got it in 39. Couldn't understand why it took us all so long. 

Guesses 12 Accuracy 50%

But it was a bit unfair for innumerate lawyers

I solved today's Redactle (#19) in 33 guesses with an accuracy of 60.61%.

Rainman. 

tried this and it was fooking ridiculously hard, although it was a maths one so guessing numbers was helpful

I got yesterday’s in 10 and thought I was a genius. Had to search wiki today after 100 guesses because no way could I find it. 

I got the first word of the title tbf just by guessing random mathematical terms

I would have been able to get it a lot sooner, but my 5th guess was "mathematics" which bizarrely didn't appear in the entire article, so I spent the next 10 guesses on wild goose chases.

Back to manageable trivia again this evening 

Personal Stats

Easy peasy

To be honest, I had it in one.

I solved today's Redactle (#20) in 8 guesses with an accuracy of 100.00%.

8 today but I did waste a few guesses on the same word!

8 for me.

I solved today's Redactle (#20) in 11 guesses with an accuracy of 81.82%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

• You solved it in 15 guesses
• Your accuracy was 93.33%
• You have solved 4 consecutive Redactles

I got this in 4 but wasted guesses because i didnt know how it worked and entered incorrect format.

it wasnt very difficult

How are you lot so good? What words do you start off with that can let you guess it in four goes FFS?

Today was analysis of the article rather than choosing a ‘good’ first word. I’ll give you my thinking after 5pm when tomorrow’s is released.

Yeah, some big clues in the unredacted text like "Out of  ___________"

Yes sucker - I thought that’s how it worked!

I solved today's Redactle (#21) in 20 guesses with an accuracy of 95.00%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

Took me 65 guesses. You would not believe what range of ancient sciences it took me to

#21 took me 34 guesses.

Got distracted exploring time and place.

I solved today's Redactle (#21) in 33 guesses with an accuracy of 24.24%.

My worst so far. I was convinced this was a geography one based on the way the introductory paragraph was worded, so basically got nothing right up until guess 25.

I solved today's Redactle (#22) in 18 guesses with an accuracy of 66.67%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

Long long text today 

I got the second word of the title about 70 guesses ago and cant do it still, the text is way too long. Someone give me a clue please!

This one was really, really annoying.

Very chuffed very early on that I got the second word of the title, but then made the mistake of assuming that it meant the strict use of that word (which obviously excludes the first word of the title…)

Spent ages going down medieval and theological cul de sacs…

I solved today's Redactle (#22) in 130 guesses with an accuracy of 46.92%.

This was tough.

Also found this one had lots of limbs.

Can't share my results as it seems to have reset to tomorrow's already, but I was about 100 guesses with 30% accuracy many of which were based around ancient history / mythology etc.

This comment ^ applies (I think) to redactle 21 that I played around midday GMT on 28 04 22

• You solved it in 14 guesses
• Your accuracy was 50.00%

Levverly jubberly. This is a piece of piss, eh?

I see Goose has engaged Smug Mode.

Wtf is it i need to go to bed!!  Is there an i give up button?

#22 is where i am stuck

Bloody hell i got this hours ago, i had just put the wrong fvcking word in, noun rather than adjective

Get a century, a continent and the second word and the first shouldn't be too hard.

Also be aware that first word of title is in larger font than second (on my phone anyway) so looks longer relative to first than it is.

Congratulations, you solved Redactle #22!

• The answer was: xxxxxxx

Yes good one for starters 

I solved today's Redactle (#25) in 7 guesses with an accuracy of 42.86%.

Finally an easier one. The last few have been tricky.

25 guesses, which makes this more than twice as hard as the Buddhist Philosophy answer from a couple of days ago.

First go. May not have understood what was going on for the first few guesses...

Congratulations, you solved Redactle #26!

• The answer was: 
• You solved it in 34 guesses

Are they getting harder?  Or am I not taking them so seriously?

It was another one where the granmar ending caught you out maybe? Certainly cost me about 5 guesses.

Congratulations, you solved Redactle #27!

• You solved it in 66 guesses

Shouldn’t have taken so many guesses

I solved today's Redactle (#27) in 18 guesses with an accuracy of 61.11%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

Took me over 200 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sounds like you did better than me minkie...

I haven’t really got the hang of it yet, I rush it without thinking properly about likely tenses and conjugation so waste guesses.

• You solved it in 114 guesses
• Your accuracy was 41.23%

I’m over 400 on the latest and going to bed.

Today is the day to try Redactle, it is very, very easy! Even I did it in 17 and tbh many of you will get this in fewer than 5. Give it a go.

I solved today's Redactle (#30) in 17 guesses with an accuracy of 70.59%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

should have solved it in about 25 but went on a wild goose chase

I solved today's Redactle (#32) in 21 guesses with an accuracy of 61.90%. Played at https://www.redactle.com/

Did in 9 today. Got a helpful word though. Some of those past ones have almost made me give up though. Sometimes I don’t know anything about the topic at all. Not as cultured as some of you folk!

How do you do this so quickly?! It takes me forever to get anywhere near!

No one lining up to brag about how quickly they got today's one?? Took me hundreds of guesses!!

159 guesses 37.74% accuracy

but i have 2 confess that once i had established the main sub-category i then had 2 google search 4 a list of possibilities and got it from there. never would have managed it otherwise

I think it's some sort of insect but I really can't be asked to work out what.

Abandoned after 30 goes. 

What Octoman said, except a lot more goes.

Today’s is easier. 74 - good for me, you lot will do it in 15.

No, that was not easy. 300+ here

Easy one today for anyone who wants to give a shot for a first time! Probably could have done it in 2 if I'd thought about it!!

Yesterdays was a nightmare, we were on last day of hols but ended up after lunch both of us (mr m with his medical background and science a levels etc) took fooking ages. First guess was the word in brackets, that much seemed obvious. 150 guesses later..

First go
