I got this in less than a minute, Was I just in a good mood, or was today’s puzzle mediocre?
(That was my poor attempt at a TI.)
😆 hey, Tom, I liked your TI
Jovial — Lukewarm in less than a minute, too. Now what am I going to do all day?
Ha!
I got this in less than a minute! Was I just in a good mood today, or was the puzzle mediocre?
That wasvMy poor ttempt
Oops! Hit the wrong button! Meant to delete that version. Perhaps I’m too jovial today.
Likewise
OA for me today.
Ditto – and very quickly.
It is my birthday, and a quick solve is a delightful gift.
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday!
OA
Same. A mediocre standup comic?
Yup!
Easy OA today!
Another OA Jovial Lukewarm. The smile that doesn’t reach the eyes.
Yah, that pretty much sums up my whole LB vibe of late.
Yes JOVIAL LUKEWARM quite quickly
Oa
Same.
OA. Had JOVIAL quickly, took most of the commute to see LUKEWARM.
LOL – similar. Got JOVIAL upon my first sip of coffee. Halfway through found lukewarm, but fortunately the coffee itself was still hot 🙂
Gotta be a SS today!
I think you’re right Susan!
✔👍😊
OA. Easy enough to find LUKEWARM after JOVIAL.
JOVIAL-LUKEWARM too.
goodbye weekend wordfest
Another OA day
Same
OA quick one today
JOVIAL – LUKEWARM
Like a lead balloon.
Jovial-Lukewarm. The rapid descent from amused to bemused when consuming today’s news.
+1
Great TI, and it rhymes!
I had limited time to work on it now, so I settled for Jovial Lemur Rawk (was surprised Rawk was ok’d) but I wonder if I would’ve found Warm and Lukewarm if I’d had more time. I had just thought of Walk and had had More as possible parts of a compound word.
I had the exact same journey with Jovial Lemur Rawk. I had Walk in there as well. My time was not limited though, but my energy faltered after awhile. Hard to believe rawk was accepted (seems like a weak contender for a place in the game), but eluvial/eluvium were not accepted (but in MW).
JOVIAL — LUKEWARM
Once I found JOVIAL (a great JV word from past puzzles), LUKEWARM was right there. I also spent a lot of time trying to get LEUKEMIA to work but couldn’t pair it.
So, I am not seeing any solves other that the OA. SSS?
I continue to be amazed that even on SSS days, dozens of folks get the solve. I would think that an SSS would be more difficult than, say, yesterday’s numerous solves (all excellent by the way). Maybe it has to do with how the words are visually laid out in the matrix (e.g. I saw LUKEWARM almost instantly). Anyway, back to work! 🙂
It’s that J, that pesky, restrictive J again. It rules the matrix today. 🙂
JOVIAL / LUKEWARM
Probably a one-off for 2-word solve…
Jovial Lukewarm
JOVIAL – LUKEWARM (Quickly for me too!)
OA in about a minute.
When I couldn’t find a match to VOLUME, OA came quickly.
Seems I may be the only one with CRABWALKS—SPRING. JOVIAL was my first find, but I did not see LUKEWARM.
OA in record time. Literally seconds. Saw JOVIAL right away then LUKEWARM came very easily! While it’s nice to see an answer right away, it’s weird not to have to work to find a pair… I guess we can never be happy with LB??? LOL
OA. Quick solve today.
OA
I saw JOVIAL quickly as the only likely way to combine the two most awkward letters, but missed LUKEWARM and gave up. I’m out of practice!
