I solved Redactle Unlimited in 50 guesses with an accuracy of 90% and a time of 00:30:04.

didn’t want to randomly throw (European) country and language names around - but once I started zooming in on that it was a done deal quite quickly

208: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 23 guesses with 73.91% accuracy and a time of 00:02:31!

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 5 guesses with an accuracy of 60% and a time of 00:05:26. Could've been two though, maybe even one - posted unhidden pour encourager les autres.

Haha that one threw me for a bit cos of the weird block at the start! But it became clear quite quickly what it was.
42 guesses, 51%. Wouldve been better but I typoed at least 3 entries cos I havent had my coffee yet.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 7 guesses with an accuracy of 71.43% and a time of 00:02:52.

209: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 104 guesses with 74.04% accuracy and a time of 00:08:56!

This was my jam and pretty fun to track down! Don't know how it'll play for others, though.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 91 guesses with an accuracy of 63.74% and a time of 01:12:00.

second guess philosophy, deconstruction after about 50 so kicking myself a bit.

FFS
I had the answer 10 guesses earlier, I just had it as 2 words! farrrk.

54 guesses 66%.

so yesterday’s Redactle took me 296 guesses because I only discovered today that had only ever entered POST and MODERNISM as separate prefixes/words, so I thought it couldn’t be *that word*, even though everything pointed toward it

that *I* had…

I solved today’s Redactle Unlimited in 135 guesses with an accuracy of 75.56% and a time of 00:25:15.
very easy to cut to the chase (there was a big fat clue), but then, which type? I mean, how many can one name, really? there even was a Dutch connection, but it took a geographic location for me to make good use of it, and then the English term was just a bit of a stab in the dark, but it turned out to be a hole in one. fun and games!

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 40 guesses with an accuracy of 62.5% and a time of 00:21:27.

yeah I was at a loss for a bit after getting the second word but guessing the geographical bit clinched it.

210: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 220 guesses with 51.36% accuracy and a time of 00:16:15!

breast: what was the big clue? I rarely ever find those because I don't spend much time looking beyond the first paragraph. In today's case, I needed till 218 to even guess ship, but I had Chinese by 14.

the big fat clue was aboard

oh I missed that!

Haha yes thats what helped me too. For the bit in parentheses anyway. I got it fairly quick but was racking my brains initially as to what kind (and 4 letters).

211: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 100 guesses with 73% accuracy and a time of 00:07:48! YMMV today.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 122 guesses with an accuracy of 81.97% and a time of 00:24:33. cheated with the first word, although in hindsight it might have been quite guessable with some focussed logical thinking even if like me you aren’t familiar with the term

Got this one in 8 guesses 75%! there were so many single-letter blocks I typed X and got lots of hits so went from there

Well done! I got it in 21 despite guessing e and pi after about 10.

212: I solved Redactle Unlimited in 2 guesses with an accuracy of 100% and a time of 00:01:00.

You solved Redactle Unlimited in 152 guesses with 53.95% accuracy and a time of 00:13:52! Almost had to cheat because I was stumped for a while on the second word. Physics and chem were my worst HS subjects!

I guess it won't or will rarely happen because there are no or few such articles in the top 1000 or whatever, but one on a book or film would be good - obvious structure (plot, cast/characters, production, reception), fun trying to get it from the plot.

didn't get yesterday's despite getting the first two words straight away. it's obvious now I've seen it. and got today's in 9 despite seeing a huge clue which could have made it a oner.

LOL todays had me stumped and I hit on the answer quite by accident after flailing around guessing German things and getting confused by mentions of Kraftwerk and Neu! but also a bunch of unrelated stuff. This may be enough of a clue for some people to figure it out so click with caution.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 167 guesses with an accuracy of 61.68% and a time of 00:29:15.

215: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 21 guesses with 61.9% accuracy and a time of 00:03:28!

Felt like today's was a long time coming.

today’s game is very intriguing

216: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 153 guesses with 56.86% accuracy and a time of 00:09:35!

Agreed with breast. I went completely on a bit of a long tangent thanks to art @32 (even though that was only 5 hits), which made me spend too much time trying to figure out why painting terms weren't giving much back to me.

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 41 guesses with an accuracy of 60.98% and a time of 00:20:38.

definitely a head scratcher and a satisfying puzzle. art was my first guess and yeah hard to get away from that tangent - I eventually hit on anatomy thanks maybe to the number of life classes I've attended.

Haha Leee I had the same red herring you did! Got it in 81, somehow.

finally got it - in 545 guesses with an accuracy of 56.7% and a time of 01:43:31. somehow I couldn’t think of the other word for corpse, I just kept filling out the blanks for fun last night. was reading an article someone posted in the US politics thread just now and suddenly the word ‘cadaverous’ was staring me right in the face. but of course!

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 38 guesses with an accuracy of 81.58% and a time of 00:13:40.

there was a clue in the text that led me to a particular country, and then it was game on straight away

66 guesses

got serbia after 21 then had no idea about the first word - not kingdom, not dukedom (though dukedom of serbia appears in the article!) - finally hit on the first word by chance, annoyed it took me so long to try it!

what was the clue?

it said “Via” (capitalized) somewhere, so I went straight for Italy/Italian (well, after I had tried Rome)

You solved Redactle Unlimited in 182 guesses with 74.73% accuracy and a time of 00:16:27!

Similar experience as ledge. Got Balkan @42 and then Serbia @46, and then I was trying political entities to get the first word (duchy? kingdom? empire? republic?). I didn't follow my usual strategy of trying the broad terms like science or history, which would've helped an awful lot today.

yesterday’s puzzle was pretty easy: 22 guesses with an accuracy of 90.91% and a time of 00:09:57.

218: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 12 guesses with 100% accuracy and a time of 00:00:37!
219: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 94 guesses with 70.21% accuracy and a time of 00:06:56! I had to arrive at this from comic books after I saw 1-4 which kind of looked like it could be X-Men, which it was.

I solved today’s game in 143 guesses with an accuracy of 66.43% and a time of 00:28:51. thought it would be really easy at the outset, a media-related thing, but that proved to be a bit of a red herring. “toy” was the breakthrough guess

took me an unreasonably long time to guess Asia yesterday, got today's in 74 after being bamboozled for ages by a company specialising in plastic injection moulding with a strong sideline in books and films.

Hahah I was stumped for a bit by todays because I was thinking "how many The ____ Movie" movie titles are there? OH WAIT" then I got it.

220: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 43 guesses with 83.72% accuracy and a time of 00:05:23!

Kind of proud of getting this one even though I was sort of throwing spaghetti against the wall at the end. I got differential pretty quickly but when equation wasn't the second word, I was pretty much out of my depth. So that's when I just tried more general math fields.

cheated to solve Redactle Unlimited in 186 guesses with an accuracy of 66.67% and a time of 00:17:31.

other way around for me - I had “geometry” at guess 12, but yeah, I don’t know anything about that sh*t, so at some point it was tentative googling time

I solved Redactle Unlimited in 12 guesses with an accuracy of 100% and a time of 00:21:36.

21 minutes? more like 12 hours. had the first word with the second guess but finding the right eight letter word was a struggle. when analysis wasn't it (after some more obvious candidates) I was stumped.

it's not a phrase I've ever heard before despite being familiar with the individual halves

221: You solved Redactle Unlimited in 51 guesses with 64.71% accuracy and a time of 00:05:09!

Small hint: the answer is a compound word so of you have two separate words, put them together.

Hahaaaaa this should have been way more obvious to me. I had all the things the answer is used for, but didn't think to link them.

124 guesses 49.19% accuracy. Too much time sodding about typing in various video game system and tech brand names lol
