______ the ____________: Redactle

ooooh

Still working on this at 17 guesses. May give up.

Got unit in 1, SI in 9 (not that it helped, but that two letter word was bugging me from the start), pressure in 16 then was sure it was newton but no. I think psi is the only other pressure unit I know

Gave up.

#54 was Pascal_(unit)

i have the redactle yips today

(actually i mea the darts version of the yips, whatever that's called)

Lazarenko's Conundrum.

argh that was meant to be hidden - any mods around?

got fluid dynamics and a bunch of related terms but pretty sure I'm a goner on this one

Second day I gave up and googled. Don't think I'd have ever got that so glad to have saved myself

Got today's in 22. My first stab at "In (5, 8)" was legal parlance but that was fruitless so I hovered around maths and science until I saw what seemed to be Reynolds number down page and bob's your uncle.

automatically clicked on Milo's hidden text having forgotten that I'm not finished. I'm still not finished.

man, another one of *those*?

53 guesses, decently happy with that

218 just chucking sciencey words at it after a while, still fun though. Don't really feel I could have got it much sooner, I didn't miss any obvious (for me) clues.

189! took me 50 guesses to get to physics, which is too many, but by 80 I was swimming in kinetic energy and knew it was a great unsolved problem in physics, neither of which helped.

that was annoying. started again on my phone and it was another form of a word i had 10s of guesses ago, maybe even a spelling error (autocorrect helpful for once!)

'dartitis' is apparently their version of the yips although the -itis is generally an inflammation of something and this is a spasm. made up word.

#55 was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbulence

16, 87.5%

kind of a wild card, thought it was going to be immigration across land bridges or something but bridges was a miss

ice bridges

Ha we were thinking along the same lines i tried numerous terms related to bodies of water and adjacent land and structures related to water

#56 98 / 34.69%

Didn't finish yesterday's, but felt a little better getting today's in under 100.

19, 78.95%, my first guess was bridge too. I guessed water at 11 out of the blue really, could've guessed ice a bit quicker i guess but can't complain.

You solved it in 112 guesses
Your accuracy was 42.86%
Globally, 4903 players have solved today's Redactle so far

disappointed it wasn't "pot noodles"

Spoiler, koogs :)

Got there in 12. Something which is a sport, but not always... er, log rolling... fly fishing...

99 not much to say I wandered around a lot

Yeah, 105. Water was the key again (a stab in the dark at 101)

Any fool know that Wikipedia entry for pot noodles is singular

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pot_Noodle

i eventually got sport but then ball too which took me in directions that were not relevant. wasted many on countries and compass points.

is everyone getting <=45% silica and produce for free?

15, with that assist.

start of the second para was the key, should have spotted it more quickly.

#57 140 / 42.86%

A proposal for terminology:
- Golfers: players who try to get the answer in as few guesses as possible
- Explorers (or sightseers?): players who like to fill in whole sentences

I'm a golfer who was getting warned for slow play so has decided to swing and hope a bit more.

But today: hole in one!

And yes huge unredacted hint in the middle but it was what looked like Year Without A Summer which gave it away.

oh I saw that but couldn't work it out.

billy idol kept getting in the way.

#56 was https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_skating

#57 in 17 (58%)

81, 38% went too science-y for a bit, I don't think geology hit on this one did it? I keep trying the broadest science terms hoping that just once a chemical process clue will actually have "chemistry" in the text.

lol yeah I need to stop trying broadly generic terms that inevitably aren't in the text despite being "right" e.g., science or mathematics

27. Mediocre.

45, could have been worse.

shut it! xp

21 I thought it was something about space for a bit

Now they tell me

I solved today's Redactle (#57) in 24 guesses with an accuracy of 62.50%.

there was a record label about 20 years ago called simple machines and each release was named after one of those 6 things. that helped me.

oh, Jenny toomey

14 today - I am not a golfer but estimate par could be around 6?

#57 was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano

am slowly getting together a (crude) books version, currently wondering what to do with apostrophes... how does redactle handle 'don't' for instance, is it ##### or ###'#?

I solved today's Redactle (#58) in 17 guesses with an accuracy of 70.59%.

Nice, sean!
