whoa, didn’t see that one coming! “act” turned out a winner, which led to “commit”, which led to… - but I had no idea it would be the actual answer

I was distracted by a sore neck. When I said aloud "what has to do with law and punishment" I immediately went DUHOY.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 18 guesses with an accuracy of 61.11% and a time of 00:06:11.

first three guesses were genus, animal, plant, but getting the right one was pure fluke.

should I stay or should I cheat, that’s the question, because I know this is about the national flower of Mexico, but I don’t think I know what is the national flower of Mexico

the shaker intro bit the shaker outro in the tail, hard (breastcrawl), Friday, 23 December 2022 20:42 (one year ago) link

so I did google ’mexican flower’ and who’d have thunk, huh?

also, I was dumb for not picking up on the ‘D. xxxx’ type subspecies names that were all over the text

felt like cheating because I clicked to find out how many letters were in the title words before I started

papal hotwife (milo z), Saturday, 24 December 2022 19:01 (one year ago) link

I got this one without cheating but my browser screwed up and didn't expose the solved page before I refreshed the page and lost all my stats. I think I got it in around 50?

Maybe this is a sign of my broken brain at the moment (I'm getting over a cold) but I saw the 3-letter second word and didn't think it was a regnal number because no way there could be a hundred of whoever it was.

Merry Chrimbo redactlers!
33 guesses with 69.7% accuracy and a time of 00:11:59

Strong clues within Worked out it was a regent relly quickly but then had no idea which era/numerals, and also the King Arthur bit was quite the red herring.

A quick 10, was hoping for it to take a bit longer tbh (we are at the “crap telly with the in-laws” stage of the day).

the a, REDACTED, and REDACTED bit immediately pointed to math, and then it was a matter of figuring out if it was a formula or equation.

Got it in 61 guesses with 55.74% accuracy and a time of 00:19:32

I was on the right track once I had mammal and australian but I wasnt thinking high level enough. Got it by reeling off animal types eventually but it was flailing.

didn’t have a clue until I got ‘water’ at #120, and even then it took me quite a while

I often guess water when I have no idea, this time it was my second guess, then 'behind a dam' seemed likely in the first para.

ledge, Tuesday, 27 December 2022 18:33 (one year ago) link

54 guesses with 55.56% accuracy and a time of 00:14:58

I also had water and still flailed around til I got river/lake then it clicked.

saw something that made me think coastal for the first guess, couple of narrowing down misses, dam got me to lake got me to reservoir

18/25 really had no idea and got there weirdly with "water" + "french"

Zoology IS in my wheelhouse and so I have heard of the third word before, but reading through that first paragraph now, mammalogists should be better at making things.

Tough one (since the article is so short) but managed it without cheating. Voting but not so country-oriented really baffled me.

Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Thursday, 29 December 2022 19:37 (one year ago) link

Got the first word first guess, and thought oh hey, maybe I'll get an easy win!

LOL Nope. Ended up having to cheat to get the middle word.

if you click 'new game' and choose today's game it'll give you a URL with a parameter in it, q999999.... Search for that parameter.
