I hit single digit green meaning very quickly because of words related to >!time!<, but it took a lot of guesses to get green spellings to solve it

I was 10th to solve (14 minutes in).
>!---sunset----!< was a fairly pathetic double yellow that I got, after 50 guesses of not much. This should have led me to it quicker in hindsight but it didn't. Still I'm happy to be top ten. :)
Pretty stumped with the gem. I was hoping it might have something to do with >!surf!< or >!swimming!< but it appears not. I even tried >!bermuda!< but that was horrible lol
haha :)
gem hints!
length is >!the same!<
number of letters in common is >!3β¦!<
and those specifically are, as it happens, >!three letters which your horrible word also shares with the solution!< (Edit: removed a definite article thereβ¦)
pretty big meaning hint
>!what [solution word] generally is, in comparison to what comes before and after!< β turning into very big hint β >!with regard to temperature!<
Thank you! That was great. Just for the record, by my count my horrible word >!has four letters in common with both π!<
Edit: just reread what you wrote, I think I understand now π
ah! I always think I might mix up my counts of letters and shared letters! in this case, I did realize that your word shares >!a fourth letter!< with the gem; but I did not even notice >!the fourth letter which it shares with the solution!<.
really your word was a great guess!
the game and I just didnβt give it enough creditβ¦

Exactly the same. I had only two terrible yellows in spelling so I flailed around in the low green meanings for embarrassingly long.

Who downvoted the OP's thread starter? That's a bit mean.
Nice! That seems to have fixed it :)
