The answers are:
MASHUPPENALIZED
OA, quick with the Z
OA also, but inn25 minutes.
Played with… Unsized, Unleased, Sampled, Humane/Humans, Dimples, Handmaid, Handmade first.
Disappointed that Mansized and Samplesize didn’t take 😂
Great words!
OA, but also disappointed that none of the ***sized words worked. I tried HUMANSIZED; PEASIZED; PALMSIZED; HANDSIZED as well as the two that you mentioned.
Nice!
Mashup penalized
SHLUMP—PENALIZED / PANELIZED
Longest word found: philadelphuses
I’m not seeing a lot of action today, with the restrictive Z.
I did not see the OA.
☕
SHLUMP is great! Yet another Yiddish solve.
Same (panelized)
Same – This is the ridiculous!
The best fail word that I found was DISULPHIDE(S). I got close to what you had, but PHILADELPHIAN was rejected.
MASHUP – PANELIZED
But Mark’s SHLUMP – PENALIZED is so much better.
Thanks Jill, I think I saw ‘mash’ in a glance, but didn’t go further there.
I got the slightly less efficient SMASHUP — PENALIZED
I spent a lot of time looking at IDEALIZED, NASALIZED, and SULPHIDE
SMASHUP PENALIZED. But it took forever. Penalized and humans but couldn’t reconcile.
OA between dinner, online auctions and banking.
With the Olympics on it’s a good time to bid. Everyone else’s attention is elsewhere…
NASALIZES – SHLUMPED*.
Started with penalized shlumped somehow missed the Mark reversal and settled? For oa
Handpump penalizes
Aliow
OA
OA.
I got a dozen OAs in the last 16 days. 😊
OA, lickety split.
Another Shlump – penalized here.
OA but had to remember the American spelling!
Americanized !
MASHUP – PENALIZED
Tried many compounds with Sized and Shaped.
Surprisingly this was one of my only MASHUPs that wasn’t PENALIZED.
Nothing new here. The OA, Mashup Penalized (it’s a thin line between fair use and plagiarism) along with Smashup Penalized (insurance rates may double) and Shlump Penalized (stand up straight or else). Panelized is an alternative, but Penalized is preferable on TI grounds.
SHLUMP PENALIZED
cause I MISPELED DEIHUMANEIZED.
OA but took a few minutes.

Another SHLUMP – PENALIZED, which I thought would be OA given Ezersky’s fondness for Yiddish. Oh well.
Looking forward to seeing this one come to fruition on September 18th. 😉
Unlaps – Smized – Duh
Big duh for me for not getting OA 🤦🏻♂️
OA here. Must say I like SHLUMP!
