NCHOUIPTRSMF
The answers are:
HONORIFICSSTUMP
CONFORMIST-THUMP
CONFORMIST – THUMP here too.
Jumping enmass to annoy the downstairs neighbor.
Same solution-but without the imaginative theme π
Scrump – Photofinish
Yes, or Crump Photofinish, slightly more efficient. Also found Computors Sunfish and Compositors Sunfish. But no TI to be had so far, including the OA.
Couldnβt get anywhere with Scrotum, which may not be such a bad thingβ¦
Other fun finds that didnβt pan out: Frumpish, Popcorn Shrimp.
FRUMP—PHOTONICS.
A 14/2, but no TI, at least none that I could imagine. π
Same. What is TI?
TI = thematic integrity
Some others:
OA = official answer
PSW = playable Scrabble word
x/y = x letters in y words (ex. Today’s OA is a 15/2)
β
This is what I got today, quite quickly! Happy with a 14/2 but agree lack of TI is less satisfying
As I mentioned to TK, FRUMPISH-HOMOTONIC would be accepted in UK Scrabble.
Thanks for the explanations Mark π
Crump photofinish works too
Conformist Tophus
I had never heard of Tophus.
A tophus is a chalky bump that forms, usually on the ears or fingers, with gout. I know that, but didnβt see the word π
CONFORMIST – THUMP
CONFORMIST—TUTORSHIP
I have to show my students the standard methods.
FUTONS—SOPHOMORIC
Temporary bed in a college dorm.
With TI to spare π
Love futons sophomoric!
COMPUTORS – SUNFISH here too. A somewhat archaic simulation? (Easier to deal with than the living critter, no doubt.)
Futons-sophomoric
Ditto from me
Wow! Wouldn’t have thought there would be so many solutions. SCRUMPβPHOTOFINISH for me.
CRUMP PHOTOFINISH for me.
Me too.
Crump photofinish works too
Funts sophomoric. Funts was a guess.
Me too. I didnβt know funts was a word. It means pounds, like the English weight. Arcane but accepted. Yay.
Oa, but I think many other solution are superior. Surprised it was official. I spent too long on frumpish.
OA as well and also got hung up on frumpish!
FRUMPISH pairs with HOMOTONIC, playable in UK Scrabble but not accepted by the puzzle.
Conformist thump. Even before my eyes were fully open.
Fustrum and microphonic.
I mean frustum β¦
Moshpit, futuristic. I loved that combo but sadly was left with one orphaned letter. π Giving up after other tries.
PHOTOFINISH-HUMORIC clunky & long but whatever – it’s two words.π
HONORIFIC / COMPUTORS
CRUMP – PHOTOFINISH
I’m late to the dance today, but also got CONFORMIST – THUMP.
π¦ IFRIT, MOTMOT, PIPIPI, STINT, COMOROS THRUSH, TIT, TOMTIT π¦π¦ COOT, FINFOOT, COMMON POTOO, PUFFIN, RUFF.
The Common Potoo is one of the weirder birds I have ever seen. In case anyone is interested: https://www.flickr.com/photos/39838258@N07/52600374017/.
I got NUCIFORM – MONITORSHIP, pretty proud of that one π
compositors/sunfish; microscopists/sunfish
Compositors Sunfish
MUSICISTS-SHOPFRONT.
As best I can tell, musicist is not a word but was accepted. Was determined to find something for shopfront.
computors – sunfish
frustum monophonic
Compositors
Sunfish
OA
