Smush

didn’t know the first and was short on vowels when I thought of the 2nd

I wonder if RAZZ would have worked :thinking:

I forget where I knew the first one from. Past spelling bees maybe

I don’t remember if I thought of that one. I know I thought of some other Z words that were makable, except they did not have a T. So that word would not have worked today

Oh yeah the T

only 8 points, but :swear: never got T as a spicy letter. at least got B spicy for TURBOT as my penultimate word, with pangram being saved for last.

WTF? No 5 points for beating the average score? But my results show this

I wondered before about the 5 points for beating today’s average, and what goes into it. I think the doubling for a perfect game does not (in part because I expect perfect games would always be above average if the doubling were included). But here the average appears to be 354, and I would be above that with just the 322 for the 11 words plus the 50 for clean plate. So does clean plate not count? Or was that 5 points not available today?

What a bozo. How could I not make NEIGHBOR as my last word, after getting the Pangram first.

Last time I tried to finish with a clearing word, I messed up :joy: so now I play it safer!

I’m not going to complain that they didn’t accept GREATFLOW . They even rejected GREATWOLF Fortunately I found another Pangram. Actually I had found and entered their Pangram before I tried those others just to see. I did see the others before the right one, and didn’t expect either would be accepted.
