297 / 72% - was just building up the content at an agreeable pace without really scrutinizing what I already had and then hit on the correct answer by accident!

Yeah, different creators, but the OG has basically gone AWOL (though his tip jar is still up).

68 old --> norse --> danish --> denmark --> iceland by 25 and it still took me another 40+ guesses because i'm dense

69 - pretty slow given I figured out it was the name of a people by guess 9 - took another 30 to figure out it was a historic term, then started thinking too far back.

don't know why I never tried scandinavia as that might have sent me in the right direction.

I was peeling away, arm in the air, after a first guess of electromagnetism but somehow the 'keeper kept it out. Got it after a bit of a scramble.

Congratulations! You took 12 minutes to solve Redactle Unlimited (#99)in 119 guesses with 74.79% accuracy!
I wasn't even sure that <article title> was a real thing, but guessed it just based on what had been revealed and was pleasantly surprised

Got it in 6 with the aid of a big giveaway halfway down, I should have thought harder about the second word - spoiler tagging in case of unconscious 'second' hint!
― dear confusion the catastrophe waitress (ledge), Friday, 15 July 2022 18:50 (one year ago) link
i got both yesterdays and todays in 69 which i wish could say feels nice, but i had to cheat yesterday because i was in no way gonna get that big word and today i just floundered nowhere near the answer for ages until i realized i had... actually uncovered most of a sentence that i didn't notice while spamming? then i realized what the 3-letter word had to be, and the long word (and then i guessed first and third before second because i am a not-counting idiot)
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Friday, 15 July 2022 19:08 (one year ago) link
Got #100 immediately (I took a punt on second being a more popular article than zeroth). First quick solve in a while.

also, with unlimited, i pressed "daily" several times and got different articles, none of them matching the original. the numbers weren't working either.
