FORUMMOBILIZATION
After 4 days of fails, got official answer again.
Official here, as well, having looked into BLITZ, FORMATION, FIBROMA(TA), UTILIZATION, RATION, NATION, and ULTRA. A rather quick one, as the number of words would suggest.
Yippee-skippy, got the official within my New Year’s self-imposed 5-minute time-limit. When I saw that we were playing a par 6 today, I assumed I would be settling for bogie or an eagle…and would have been happy with that (or so I told myself).
Free time plus a 2-worder…it’s going to be a delightful day on Planet Lewison! 🫶🏻
TUBIFORM – MOBILIZATION
Armyworms on the march!
Hi Bernie,
Are you thinking of TUBIFEX– a word found in an array a couple of months ago.
TUBIFORM is incredibly prosaic– ‘shaped like a tube.’
(I tried it as a lark, and was surprised it was accepted. I then looked it up.)
Cheers!
Delighted to see the variety of solutions! After I found the official, I thought for sure it would be another one-hit wonder. For the rest of the day I will have images of flag-waving, lobitomized nematodes marching off to war singing “Frum the halls of Montezuma” stuck in my head.
You’re a funny one, DW! This made my morning.
Thank you for the bracing corrective, Jill! That was indeed my thought error. Looking forward to your Ode on a Grecian Tube!
A slight improvement on the official answer: Frum (meaning pious or hyper-pious) Mobilization – raising armies of the righteous or self-righteous.
Also Furl Lobotomization, which I think has to do with surgically-enhanced flag-worship.
I got FRUM – MOBILIZATION too – I found MOBILIZATION, had U-R-F left over and tried NURF then FRUM and was very surprised when it was accepted.
Thanks for the laugh, Bernie; it helped banish my back-to-work-on-a-Monday blues! FRUM is more than just a slight improvement; new to me & extremely useful!
As for yesterday’s ref, well -honoured as it makes me feel-, me being in the same bracket with you or Jill, boy, that’s laying it on a bit thick…
This Is starting to remind me of a Mary Tyler Moore Show episode where Ted Baxter and his brother (played expertly by Jack Cassidy)) have a sibling-rivalry throwdown capped by Cassidy’s challenge: “Humble?! I’ll show you Humble!”
I bet nobody’s beating YOU at Wordle….
I also got FRUM – MOBILIZATION, and I vote FRUM MOBILIZATION NO.
Official. Mobilization announced itself almost immediately. “Frum” streamlines the official solution but is also interesting and definitely new-to-me. Thanks!
Forum Mobilization
Official and thankfully right away.
Official when TRAUMATIZATION left me nothing but traumatized
BOATLIFT –TRAUMATIZATION
🙂 Nice one! I’ll look for it on YouTube! I’m in 5-party Wordle group with friends on WhatsApp -doing okay but I cannot claim a head & shoulders superiority. The number of guesses there is also, partly, a matter of luck (in how compatible your starting word is with the solution). I haven’t sorted out a repertoire on the basis of efficiency and I often go with “off the beaten path” words such as THRUM (which I’ve previously mentioned).
(Meant as a reply to BERNIE HOROWITZ’s 1:26 PM comment).
My biggest problem with Wordle is that I’m always talking myself out of what turns out to be the answer. Over-thinking and not going with my instincts… Come to think of it, that’s not just a problem with Wordle!
forum – mobilization
Official as well after serious attempts to make AMORTIZATION and TRAUMATIZATION work with no luck. Gonna tuck FRUM away in my list of useful words for the future. Thanks for the chuckles all!
Ugh, missed it! Was trying -ization, FORMULIZATION not allowed, but FILMIZATION was? I got cut out after entering BLOAT (could be BOAT) TURF FILMIZATION. My best 3-word guess was FORMATION NUB BRAZIL. Surprised brazil was okay, but I see here the lower case (i.e. brazil nut), is legit.
UNFURL LOBOTOMIZATION
I tried brazilnut but it wasn’t accepted.
