bit of an annoying code issue, long suspected, today confirmed: not all apostrophes are the same to Redactle. it accepts (') but not (’): iow it would accept “Martha's [Vineyard]”, but not “Martha’s [Vineyard]”.unfortunately, on my iPhone at least, the apostrophe is entered as (’) in Redactle, so I have to c+p the (') version.

yeah I gave up after about 100 having guessed judaism but no hope of getting the rest.

Got there in 45. That single hit for organism early on was a real puzzler!

got there in my own sweet time again: 386 guesses /39.90%. not exactly proud of this one though, should have gotten there a lot sooner

lmfao, got #83 in 91 / 21.98%i unlocked "fast" and "food" early and just kept guessing dumb shit because i could not come up with anything where XXXXX and XXX were opposites (4th paragraph) until about 10 mins later, at this point i said out loud at my computer "oh my god" and typed the correct answer

Got really lucky! I had daylight @20 thinking maybe it had something to do with DST, and followed up with night for some reason I can't remember at this point.
― Antifa Lockhart (Leee), Tuesday, 28 June 2022 19:39 (one year ago) link
14 guesses for me. too bad, could have been a 1-guesser or close to it. thought it might be “sun” and “horizon” and then thought of “night” right at the outset, but couldn’t make the alternative names bracket make sense, so didn’t go straight for it

6! Felt good about that until I read seandalai’s post.just kidding, feels very good. got lucky, tried “music” first - gotta start somewhere - got 1 hit, and then “video” looked like it might be worth a shot

35, got way into the weeds early with displays and connector types and stuff, which is funny because i didn't get the word 'video' until the last word... so dumb

52, fussed around with construction, farming, home appliance type guesses for awhile due to all the "through the", "via the", "inside of the" type stuff that was revealed until "man" gave me "___-man" and it was over quick

11, happy with that considering I had no clue when I started guessing. no table of photos visible on my phone! I guessed the first word more or less by chance and that opened it up enough.

60 - just assumed it was science initially and wasted a bunch of guesses
― papal hotwife (milo z), Friday, 1 July 2022 18:23 (one year ago) link
Ledge: after I solved it, I noticed the List of current XXX-XXXXX XXXXXs was just a heading, so I checked the real article and it was in the form of a table with smiling dictators so I guess Redactle completely omits that.
