DOZENTHHAYSTACK
I gave up easily for this array of letters. But I found both DOZEN and HAYSTACK. I didn’t know the former can be added with TH. Ugh!!!! I was almost there all along!
I did the same, but tried DOZENTH. Who knew?!
Me too. What a neat game.
Same. I thought: “What the heck. Worth a try.” And was surprised to get the “Genius” notification. For a while I was stuck on ENDZONE thinking that the NFL playoffs were influencing the solution.
Similar to you I found HAYSTACK and ENDZONE then HAYSTACK and DOZEN and was stuck for a bit but finally got the OA.
Same here; saw HAYSTACK + DOZEN. Never thought of Dozenth. Settled for 17/3 HAYSTACKS SAD DOZEN (or Haystacks Send Doze).
Gave up and entered dozens sky yachts. Never in my life heard dozens. :>(
Gave up and entered dozens sky yachts. Never in my life heard dozenth!
Me too.
OA.
OA – Monet overload. Also Dozenth Hackysack, although one is more than enough.
lol love this visual
OA
Schnoz. That’s what I say to this solution. And I have used that word.
Who uses the word dozenth?
Actually maybe I have. 🤣 Didn’t get it though.
DAT TYKES SCHNOZ. (dialogue from a Nancy cartoon) was as close as i got after trying dozen for the twelfth time
Great theme, Bernie!
OA too though it was tough to let SCYTHE(S) go (would have matched nicely with haystacks for a theme)
Found that late in the game. Had dozen and haystack very early and that chewed on it all day before finally coming up with dozenth. Going to bed very satisfied.
Brilliant! 😆👏🏾
DOZENTH – needed the H ending for HAYSTACK so worth the try (and it is used in Great Britain alot, tres anglais!)
Oa. I don’t usually say this but maybe this is a unique solution. Haystacks doesn’t count as a second solution. I hope I am proven wrong.
I win! I had haystacks PDQ and couldn’t get off of it, and then I obviously had dozens that couldn’t fit. I don’t have any other words written down at all, but it’s about 8 minutes later before I actually came up with the answer.
OA. It usually takes me forever to never to get these but saw this one right away. I wonder if it’s unique?
DOZENTH HACKYSACK
Glad to be proven wrong! I love seeing a second unique solution!
OA and with HACKYSACK as well. Took me a while to figure out the nth ending like many others. Kind of surprised that HACKYSACKS not accepted though. Can you never have more than one together at the same time???
Had dozen and haystack but didn’t occur to me to try dozenth. Awkward word.
OA after playing around with ENDZONE for a while. Almost gave up after HAYSTACKS – SADZONE was rejected (which is where I was trying to do this puzzle), but then noticed DOZEN was a more efficient usage of the letters in ENDZONE. DOZENTH wasn’t as much of a stretch after SADZONE! 😂
DONS / SKEAZY / YACHT
That’s way topical, Davel! Me likey.
OA today
Everybody got all the answers…
There were no scrabble words.
1 – 15 dozenth / haystack
2 – 16 dozenth / haystacks
3 – 16 dozenth / hackysack
DAT – TYKES – SCHNOZ
I’ve got yer nose! (ugh)
cheers Oscar
Love it! I started with Schnoz but didn’t pick it, as I couldn’t pair it.
I kept writing DOZENETH which is probably how I used to say it as a kid, but it wouldn’t work. Lol. Had to come back later and finally got it right.
Had Dozenth-Hackysack
OA today
OA, but it took a while.
