The answers are:
BAWDIERROUGHEN
DOUGHIER-RAINBOW
nice – i was looking for something to pair with RAINBOW. Got OA thinking “this too out there to be OA”
Ditto! And, a fast solve.
Borough headwind
BOROUGH – HEADWIND
Hidebound Downgrade
BOROUGH – HEADWIND for me too.
TI…perhaps when the NYC mayoral vote tallies start swinging your way on election night? 🤔
BOROUGH – HEADWIND
Same for me, I have had different answers twice this week
WINEBAR-ROUGHED
not everyone’s hangout
Same (winebar-roughed)
BOUNDER – RAWHIDING
Hungrier – Rawboned
Great TI, Creaky – best in days and surely Best in Show today! (Like your moniker, too!)
Waiting for breakfast!
WRONGHEADED – DAUBING. Give it up, you’ll never be an artist.
Ditto
BOWHEAD DURING
winebar – roughened
Grumpy old lady: HIDEBOUND – DOWAGER
I like it!
Aren’t they all? More excellent TI, in close competition with Creaky Brain.
I tried to find a match for DOWAGER! Nice one.
Yep, this was my solution today, too.
Kept trying to work with the -ING suffix, and REBOUNDING got me so close.
I tried to making REBOUNDING work for a looong time today before finding a different solution.
Same!
Surprised to be so close to the OA with:
BAWDIER – ROUGHING…
The abrupt transformation in children that happens when they stay up exactly one random minute too late, and suddenly get too tired to remember how to be human to one another; resulting in an explosion of noise, insane energy, tumbling, wrestling, and increasingly absurd insults primarily centered around bodily functions.
Hey, I know those kids!
Same. Puzzling that Gearhub was not accepted, I have on on my bike.
Same. Puzzling that Gearhub was not accepted, I have one on my bike.
OA. Not very interesting but ALIOW. Others are doing SO much better….
I do note a lot of overlap with SB today, but no spoilers.
Can you remind me what ALIOW stands for?
Thanks!
At least it’s over with. Courtesy of. . .Fishcake(?)
“At least it’s over with” is Bernie’s phrase. I just suggested the acronym because we must all know that feeling well.
And I finally got the OA after failing with several of the words others succeeded with today. ALIOW!
What is ALIOW?
Borough headwind for me.
Couldn’t find a match for rebounding. Can anyone try to see if there is one?
RAWHIDER – REBOUNDING
(Not saying it’s a good one.)
Thanks. Its a good find
Same here 🙂
ROUGHRIDER—RAINBOW
🤠🌈
Randy’s Wild West cousin.
HUNGRIER – RAWBONED with TI after finding DOWNGRADE(D) and not being able to pair it with anything. Love the variety today!
Another one for DOUGHIER – RAINBOW.
ROUGHRIDER – RAINBOW as well.
A Jay-Z – Beyoncé pairing
BAWDIER / ROUGHING as well. Didn’t see ROUGHEN.
Bowhead durning
I must have had some stink beta version – many attempts gave almost answers with always one letter left over. Borough Headwear in the end, which of course doesn’t work now.
For (possible) future reference: LB accepts ‘DAWG.’
No further comment, just wanted you good folks to know.
Interesting. DAWG is not a PSW. Sometimes I really do wonder where this word list comes from. If I remember correctly, the puzzle didn’t accept CRAMPY once upon a time.
Forgot to post my solution earlier today: BOWHEAD – DURING. No TI, but efficient. Makes me want to complete the adjectival phrase (“mating season,” perhaps?).
LB once accepted the word “kewl”; as in slang for “cool”. Google said: “The word kewl is a valid scrabble word, except in North America”. So, DW, what does this all mean?
…and why can’t it be BOWHEAD – DURING prayer?
Hmm?
Holy Moby! I mean Moly. Wait, wrong kind of whale…
Wrongheaded/daubing
I have failed every day this week and feel dejected and useless. Hoping for a better week next. (And I didn’t even coin ALIOW. Think it was Jill.) Yesterday’s was brilliant – the OA, and all you brainy people’s alternatives. Chapeau! I salute you! 😣😞
ALIOW: Not me– credit to Bernie and JuliaC!
Also: rebounder/rawhiding
Why are my answers being rejected by moderators!
Doughier Rainbow here as well after trying a variety of hound
This is the correct email.
So: wrongheaded/daubing
Rebounder/rawhiding
Doughier and Rainbow for my best shot.
There is nothing immoderate about my comments, but I will let you maintain a baffling exclusivity. I have nothing further to post.
Borough – Headwind for me too.
