5 - took a stab with anglicanism, that got 0 hits so checked i was in the right area with god, protestantism, branches. Took a while to think of another possible branch.

73 - I got lots of hits for very Catholic words so went down the wrong path

a bust. it's even hard to find on wikipedia because the topic is so huge and convoluted. lol, religion

Redactle 27 Church was my first guess and would have had it much not sooner if I’d not thought the word was Lutherianism with two “i”s.

102, 62%
― papal hotwife (milo z), Thursday, 9 June 2022 18:07 (one year ago) link
142 guesses. To think my first thought when I glanced the intro was “***** tea”, but yeah “drink” and “food” didn’t register at all...

24, 50.00%. I saw the ____ per _____ bit, tried meter, meter, liter, didn't try litre for another 15 guesses. no hits for water or oil after that, then thought of beer and then wine. wasted another guess on carbonated ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - i also guessed hard and soft for no good reason, no hits even though they are in there.
― dear confusion the catastrophe waitress (ledge), Thursday, 9 June 2022 19:31 (one year ago) link
48 slightly annoyed because my second guess was "drink" with 0 hits

In 36 with unusually low accuracy of 52.78%. Just couldn’t get started on it so ended up throwing lots of filler words that didn’t really help. Finally I started on countries and three goes after France I had it
― Alba, Thursday, 9 June 2022 20:22 (one year ago) link
#64: 160 / 45.63%
One of these days I might try to remember trying FRANCE if I have an inkling that it's a food or drink -- I had absolutely no idea until I was on a meeting today to discuss an app we're calling sugar, and that's what put me on the right track at 96.

38... thank goodness memories of a number 41 hit from 1982 helped me in the end. If it had been one of the other denominations I'd have given up.

took me too long (80 guesses) to get hindu, even longer to get denomination, knew I wasn't going to get it then but carried on to 350 guesses anyway.
― dear confusion the catastrophe waitress (ledge), Saturday, 11 June 2022 10:54 (one year ago) link
260 in, I have about 50% of the first paragraph but resigned to scouring my brain until the deadline runs out
― TWELVE Michelob stars?!? (seandalai), Saturday, 11 June 2022 12:39 (one year ago) link
cheated at 242. in fact i was trying to cheat since 220 or so but it doesn't make it easy. wouldn't've got it.
tried all my good indian religion words and got enough hits to keep me going but... "one of several major..." *several*. i was trying all the numbers.

Yeah, I was very relieved to give up, see the answer and realize, No, I wouldn't have ever gotten that on my own.

279 guesses in and I’m still completely mystified by today’s Redactle

going nowhere today either, I seem to have lost my ability to Redactle...

102 and gave in - I knew sedimentary and igneous but not metamorphic
― papal hotwife (milo z), Saturday, 11 June 2022 18:55 (one year ago) link
105, took me 102 to get to rock - I feel like I either get in the right ballpark straight away or it takes me an age to figure it out. Hits at guess 23 for solid but not liquid or gas might have been a clue.
― dear confusion the catastrophe waitress (ledge), Saturday, 11 June 2022 19:07 (one year ago) link

redactle's got me going on my computer on saturdays now, that's a high compliment to redactle
133 today with a 30.83%!
took me FOREVER to even get close. i think i had like 5 hits in the first 40 or so?! temperature was my first in, then after flailing i tried some high temp things which led me to core and mantle, and then eventually i just tried rock and two guesses later i got there (why i went sed before met when temperature is involved is beyond me)

73 but I kinda cheated, once i got rock i could remember igneous and sedimentary but couldn't remember the third type
― JoeStork, Saturday, 11 June 2022 22:06 (one year ago) link
got there in 414 (39.21%, extremely low) things only got moving once I struck “stone” and then “rock” at 325. needed some Wiki help to find the actual answer tho

Back on track! One thing I've noticed so far is that if "number" shows up, it's still not likely to be a math article.

Got this one in 5. Should have been 3, but I second-guessed my instincts and put in two guesses that went nowhere before going back to my first idea.
