Ahh, finally got it. Too simple, I guess.
Me: I’m going to make a run for QB!
Me 11 minutes later: F this, I’m stuck on 287, I’m going to watch something on YouTube instead.
Me too but I eventually got a real one.
What’s wrong with BOLIDE?
Pretty quick trip to Genius today with pangram. Now I’m nine or ten points short of QB and stuck.
For what it’s worth, there aren’t really any weird words today. Usually, only 30 or 40 percent of solvers get the hardest words, but today, no word is below 60%.
So, you’ll get it!
Got it! Thanks for the boost.
Today was a quick one. And yesterday’s was slightly odd, with all of the letters in the latter part of the alphabet.
Tuesday. Just opened it up and, because of the arrangement of letters, said “Ah, it’s MURIATIC.” It is not MURIATIC. MURIATIC is not accepted at all. I don’t know what it is yet, but it’s not MURIATIC.
Yet another word I typed twice to confirm that they didn’t like it for some reason.
Finished it. Finding an accepted pangram didn’t actually take that long but still, given the several chemistry-related terms in today’s puzzle, it remains an odd omission.
At least twice, yes.
Came in here to say that MURIATIC is a perfectly good word! Damn liberal arts majors…
Hopefully finding the pangram was not a severely damaging experience which might require extensive therapy.
GANTLET is definitely a word
Despite having played this game for a long, long time, I almost never get acai before looking at the hints. I’m about 50/50 with acacia. I can’t figure out what my mental block is.
I’m beginning to think of them as nemesis words. Today was my old favorite cicada. I almost always miss gigolo…and tool for some weird reason.
Oh, those acidic cicadas …
Same here! Also doodad, lollygag and lallygag, raita, and tantara.
