I had so much filled in. Climate, something about protests, nuclear stuff. Global warming. I could not think of it. Came close to cheating but I knew I’d get there. Pretty embarrassing.

I solved today’s Redactle (#241) in 7 guesses with an accuracy of 85.71%.
I saw “save the” and thought “whales” – that wasn’t the section header, but I got 3 hits. So I tried “ocean”, and then I tried the different oceans, until I hit “Arctic”… and then I got it.

Whales is got me there finally, but I didn’t think to try it until the end.
Well before that, I had Laura Nyro in mind:
Save the people
Save the children
Save the country

Really not much until Asia at 40 and food at 45. Finally saw something that looked like you are doing something to rice in a pot and that got me utensil.

I had Asia pretty early on, and had thought about guessing the right thing, but thought it might be a stereotypical guess, so I didn’t.

I would probably have gotten it a little earlier if I hadn’t misspelled utensils.

City was my ninth guess and had 91 hits. And then I kind of forgot about that, I got to food and vegetables. But then I got ‘program’ and ‘security’ and I was fully convinced this was some kind of govt or non-profit program to feed people. I FINALLY came back to the fact that ‘city’ had 91 hits and tried ‘urban.’ I should have also thought of agriculture earlier given the number of hits around food. I’m multi-tasking today, so let’s blame it on that.

I thought it was a game show, and I couldn’t quite tell how many letters were in the first word but my first guess was ‘family’ hoping it was Family Feud. Swinging for the fences.

I knew it was some type of competition that was televised and most likely took place in the U.S.
I was certain that it was some sort of sporting event until guess 74 of “music”
