4:18 am

burns1

a slightly strange 8 that surprised me.

4:54 am

burns1

I'm in England and allowed to use Pish by the way. Thanks Irvine Welsh!

4:55 am

burns1

It is a Scottish word by the way. It just means Piss.

5:40 am

burns1

65, 4.65, 821
and stuck now.

5:46 am

lalika

5:50 am

lalika

116/4.57/1280 and gah has this thing got me beat...

5:51 am

Assa

Pish is a very beautiful word: deeper and more expressive, I think, than piss.

6:16 am

discodave

I'm pleased that, as a scot, I was allowed to express myself with my own country's vernacular. Pish is a fantastic word, its true.

6:19 am

burns1

78, 4.68. 1011 but I really am done now.

9:20 am

GeneralVanya

116 words 4.69 1460 and thats me out :P

10:16 am

Assa

What, no titful?
Hmph!

10:37 am

MikOto

folic isn't a word? Is folic acid a latin term or something?

11:57 am

discodave

I quit - worst one for a while and I can't get away from thinking incarnate is there, dammit.

12:07 pm

beluga

folic is certainly a word, according to merriam-webster

12:07 pm

Kaetchen

It's silly to have people in one country be able to use a word and not those in another. What, because you live across the ocean, you don't know the vernacular?

12:07 pm

RET

387 - I'm huffing and puffing today

1:03 pm

Assa

Though the night is young, I seem to be doing enormously badly.

1:24 pm

RET

A surge of 4 letter words brings me to .... 490 .... I'm bad and that ain't good

1:37 pm

beluga

fwiw, you can get to 795 without an 8 letter word.

3:17 pm

Egregious Jones

Three 7s now. Still no 6s or 8s...

3:26 pm

RET

550 - gasp - gasp

3:26 pm

beluga

probably my personal best for *fastest* time finding an 8 letter word. nearly had 900 score b4 finding it. undecided if i even want to push for a higher score.

3:59 pm

4t8

2 6's. a horrendous day at 390.

4:01 pm

jmurdock

60 words 4.30 549
I quit

4:37 pm

April

I am shocked any one has got more than 300 today...

5:03 pm

Egregious Jones

That's it for me: 108/4.53/1185.
I never found anything longer than 7 letters, but I found five 7s.

5:30 pm

jefusan

I'm pretty sure there are no possible J words. Right?

5:47 pm

beluga

actually, it thinks there's a j word, but it's quite low-scoring so no point fretting over it.

6:16 pm

xena

snubbing 11 extra points? Not me.

6:26 pm

beluga

well, once you enter it, there's no taking it back, is there? :)

6:32 pm

xena

can't take back any of this. Wish i didn't start it.

7:48 pm

L D

I got a j word! woo! too bad i'm totally sucking it up on this one

7:54 pm

sapphie

OK..back from work and 7 hours on the town...but it still don't seem rigth that the word 'pish' that i use often...is allowed others but not me...ah well i am royally pissed ( uk style not us) so i think i will get no more tonite.... alll the best

8:36 pm

RET

still grasping - any handhold will do .... 606 ........

9:49 pm

RET

Getting respectable, barely - thanks to my new friend, the compound word. Up to 726.

10:31 pm
