How do you win redactle in so few guesses? I think the best I've managed to score so far was about 45 guesses and even that felt like a bit of a fluke.

If you're asking me, I think it's because I'm a habitual skim/scan reader, which makes actually fully absorbing complex information from text really hard, but also makes skimming over light stuff much easier. Redactle seems to play off this because I find myself scanning rapidly over it and automatically fitting in likely phrases. It's definitely does NOT always work, but it does seem to help :unsmith: Plus, as other have said, you can work out what the absolutely basic type of article it is (biography, history, disambiguation etc) from the format.
The ones about theoretical scientific concepts always stump me lol.

edit: also if you highlight a redacted word you can see exactly how many letters there are in it, which helps to narrow down your choices a bit.

You get better the more you play. Like Pookah said, I try to first see what general type of subject it is. If i see obvious four letter dates “in year…..” or “from year-year then it’s likely historical or biographical. If there are tons of one letter 1 then it’s likely math or science

But then there’s ones like today’s where there aren’t obvious clues and you just start guessing really common words that show up in Wikipedia articles like “one”, “most”, “first”, “world”, “time”, “be”, “such”. World is good because lots of times you’ll get a capitalized hit like World War II or an obvious organization

i'm really impressed with those low guess redactle wins

i usually have to guess like 20-30 house keeping words like 'are, were, which, that,' etc before i can parse enough to even start making educated guesses

Three colored squares at line 1 gave me an overestimated sense of auspiciousness.
Maybe not having at least three colored squares again until line 5 speaks the clearest about how bad my process of sifting through letters was.

Would have been a 3 except it automatically submitted the plural of a guess even though I have that turned off :argh:
