hokie carla

is this a repeat from yesterday?

9:11 am

BzznBea

can't be

9:12 am

hokie carla

I know, but looking at the first tile it's very similar

9:13 am

hokie carla

ah, but es6 that was a phantom for me yesterday is here today

9:14 am

hokie carla

and pl oa5 instead of sing. so many similarities.

9:15 am

BzznBea

often i find that I can look at a group of letters and just know the word is there because of its frequency in the gr5

9:16 am

BzznBea

esp. the vowels

9:17 am

hokie carla

yeah, I'm just typing stuff today like onager because most of the letters are there. I do that when words don't exist in the puzzle but when they do I forget to try them and think they are phantoms.

9:20 am

hokie carla

btw, my last i yesterday that I couldn't find was ionsðŸ¤£

9:21 am

there is an on 6/24 that has me stumped

11:54 am

penquis

it ends in a vowel....

11:54 am

cybernan

I've had the monkeys running all around it and still no luck

11:55 am

penquis

the end is most of what we call the 5x 5 thing with all the letters in it...

11:55 am

cybernan

ty -- about the only thing I didn't try!

11:56 am

penquis

i only found it when you asked for it....figured it was a weird one...

11:56 am

moolingwa

didn't have that one

11:56 am

moolingwa

10 to go

11:56 am

penquis

49 here...

11:56 am

cybernan

we've had the alt. sp before, but not that one that I recall

11:57 am

MollyL

It is also an anagram of a gerund word for propelling a row boat

12:01 pm

1:38 pm

moolingwa

my other guess would be m5

1:39 pm

hokie carla

yes, I only have 4s. how many letters for the other? I think I see what you are getting at but nothing working

1:39 pm

moolingwa

6 for the first one I kinda clued

1:40 pm

hokie carla

ashlot - empty lot to dump your fireplace ashes in

1:46 pm

moolingwa

nowhal - formerly narwhal...after we inevitably drive them to extinction

1:47 pm
