The answers are:
POWEREDDECATHLON
OA.
POWERED—DECATHLON
POWDERED—DECATHLON
Jumped out at me today…another variation accepted: PROWED – DECATHLON
A very slight variation:
POWDERED – DECATHLON.
Mercifully quick redemption after a 3 day in a row fiasco.
Same
I got
CAPON NETHERWORLD
for a rather quick solve.
Off to Slumberland now.
Same but CAPON was a guess.
Me too! Took ages.
POWERED / DECATHLON too.
PAWNER-RECLOTHED
Another Pawner Reclothed here, after they got the fur coat out of hock; they Pawned Dropcloth instead. They had already Awned / Dawned / Lawned Dropcloth. Dropcloths are very versatile.
I feel kinda bad about these unimpressive solutions, but then, the OA is nothing to write home about either.
OA as well
Powerhead Decontrol
WEAPONED—DROPCLOTH
DAWNED – DROPCLOTH
Me too
PAWNED–DROPCLOTH
tough times for house painters, I guess
AWNED – DROPCLOTH for sllightly more efficient answer, but how you ever make an awning from a dropcloth is beyond me!
WEAPONED-DROPCLOTH as well.
PAWNER-RECLOTHED sustainable fashion
Same
From RECLOTHED – DAWN, missing the P, flipped it round to PAWNER – RECLOTHED
HAYLOFTS
STRIVE
Sorry, yesterday’s one.
TOCOPHEROL — LAWNED
CAPON — NETHERWORLD
Also so WRENCHED, PREACHED, TEACHER, DRENCH
Pawned Dropcloth… The starving artist.
😆
Same
Watercoloured – Daphne
This is a lovely answer, Laetitia!
DAWNED-DROPCLOTH or the more efficient but less common AWNED-DROPCLOTH.
Instant solve, which is nice after failing yesterday, though I didn’t start until the evening after being at the Open most of the day yesterday. I choose to blame it on that and not my own shortcomings.
LAWNED – DROPCLOTH
Capon Netherworld for me
Took awhile but still managed to solve!
That’s also what I got – isn’t that just as “efficient” as the published solution?
WATERCOLORED DAPHNE
Pretty
Excellent!
DECAHEDRON was a gem. Couldn’t pair it with anything, though.
Nice! I was looking for a ~HEDRON, but didn’t think of DECAHEDRON. Pity it doesn’t appear to have a match.
OA for me today.
Awned – dropcloth (14/2)
Hadn’t yet seen powered *slaps forehead*
But for some reason saw PROWED DECATHLON and it worked!
OA
PROWED DECATHLON also.
WATERCOLORED – DAPHNE.
I didn’t think daphne would be accepted!
PREOWNED — DECATHLON were my selections.
pawner – reclothed
CAPON – NETHERWORLD
TI: Hell’s chicken! 😉
On the menu in Hell’s Kitchen!
POWDERCOATED – DECATHLON
Weaponed dropcloth
Happy to get something after a dry spell
