In reference to your spoilered comment - you beat the median!
I solved today’s Redactle (#69) in 3 guesses with an accuracy of 66.67%. Very lucky. I saw “xx-in” and thought maybe “ad-in” from tennis? and put in game)
I solved today’s Redactle (#69) in 1 guesses with an accuracy of 100.00%.How are people taking 70 goes to guess a two letter word? Makes the average/median figure look decidedly rubbery. Also, one guess for a two word solution.
I solved today’s Redactle (#69) in 1 guesses with an accuracy of 100.00%.
Knowing that it could be done in 1 inspired me to take a hard look at the structure of this one to see if I could do it too. It also looks like the game designers never expected 1 guess solves as they didn’t code that case in the share my results message

was floundering about figuring it was some strange disease or something until I guessed “computer” at #24. Got “monitor” shortly after at #26, then after a quick detour into programing, hit “display” and everything fell out after that.
I solved today’s Redactle (#70) in 18 guesses with an accuracy of 77.78%.
Got lucky with some really great words. I was thinking something electrical at first. And then I tried computer thinking it may be related somehow. That got the ball rolling. And as I sat staring at my monitor while thinking, I thought I’d try monitor. I was able to get to it from there fairly soon. Felt good after a series of tough ones for me.

Eh, some might find Redactle #73 a little long and boring, but I still enjoyed it, though it took a while to finish at 42 guesses (median = 24).
I solved today’s Redactle (#73) in 15 guesses with an accuracy of 100.00%.
Yesterday’s, on the other hand, kicked my rear. I thought I had a clue that the title started with a vowel, except it didn’t. A specific type (adjective that started with a vowel) of the title. Gave up and googled after 50+ guesses at around a 10% accuracy rate.
I solved today’s Redactle (#73) in 12 guesses with an accuracy of 83.33%.
Not too difficult for me today. I had “book” by guess #5, though was slightly thrown when it wasn’t in the first paragraph - didn’t occur to me to try “literary work” or “novel”. I tried a few more words to suss it all out better when the title just popped into my head.
Yesterday’s (#72) kicked my behind too, but finally got a great key word by guess 67 and solved it in two more guesses from there. Just goes to show, even if it’s something familiar, doesn’t always mean it’s going to be an easy solve.
I solved today’s Redactle (#74) in 48 guesses with an accuracy of 60.42%.
Went down a couple of, in retrospect, helpful but misleading rabit holes before noticing a certain 3 letter play which implied a major word and I got it three guesses after that.
I solved today’s Redactle (#75) in 33 guesses with an accuracy of 42.42%. However, I did have to eventually cheat, after I figured out that the answer was a German philosopher named Max who was born to a Jewish family. The eventual answer was unfamiliar to me, and to my German, philosophy-major wife. But I’m sure he’s important somewhere.
I gave up on Redactle (#75) and looked up the answer. Just couldn’t nail the guy down…not that I would have known who he was even if I had better clues revealed.
And I solved (#74) in 36 guesses. That one was kind of fun for me. I only have general knowledge of the subject, but I was able to uncover enough to get (and keep) the ball rolling, and I also got a bit lucky with some key words too.
I solved today’s Redactle (#76) in 22 guesses with an accuracy of 54.55%.
Wound up semi cheating on the last two - For #75 discovered a German philosopher named Max and wiki’d around until I found out which Max, never heard of the guy before. For today I figured out that it was a bird in europe and googled a phrase to get which one.
I solved today’s Redactle (#76) in 83 guesses with an accuracy of 40.96%.
Now here’s a topic I actually really enjoy and know a bit about (birds in general). I should have gotten this one way sooner than I did, but I went down the wrong path several times. Though I actually thought it could be about a bird early on…didn’t have anything to go on really except for some sentence structuring, but I dismissed the idea. When I finally went back to that idea I was kicking myself for not going for it earlier. I had fun with this one though.
Found out afterwards that the article got cut off, which would explain why I wasn’t getting hits on some of my words I thought I would be. And I had 3 spelling errors too from typing words too fast.
I solved today’s Redactle (#77) in 93 guesses with an accuracy of 27.96%.
This one took me a long time…another one that I should have had a lot sooner, and was kicking myself for missing a very big clue that would have solved it right then and there (“is in ___, and out of ___”. It just wasn’t coming to me, but should have). I still had fun filling in parts of sentences and trying to figure it all out though.
