JUNKEDDRIVEWAY
Oh-junkyard/driveway too
JUNKYARD – DRIVEWAY
Ditto
Yeah, had to scroll awhile to see if someone else got the longer version — junkyard just jumped out.
JUNKYARD – DRIVEWAY, JUNKED – DRIVEWAY … my guess is that’s just about the long and the short of it!
Junked Driveway
Me, too… very quickly.
The official answer came to me in under a minute.
If, as was the case with me, you stumbled across DRIVEWAY first, then your answer was bound to be JUNKED (not meant in a literary sense). If, on the other hand, you spotted JUNKYARD ahead of DRIVEWAY, I can see how you wouldn’t even consider refining it -to the extend that that constitutes a refinement. And I’d, indeed, be hard-pushed to envisage any alternate solutions to this one.
Same. Sound logic. Official.
Exactly SOTA! Spotted JUNKYARD first and from there leapt at DRIVEWAY and didn’t bother to look in the rearview mirror 🙂 Considering there are days when I spend what seems like an inordinate amount of time working on the solution, I sometimes take whatever win I can get and move on with the day. For example, I’m off to string the lights…. Joy!
Sorta, what type of words are on your ”list.” Do you have a list or were your previous comments metaphorical?
I’m not clear as to which comments it is you’re referring to, exactly. If it is my exchange with SusanM at yesterday’s box, I suppose that, by ‘list’, she meant the words I often present as having contemplated before finding (or failing) a solution.
Aside from that, I do -as confessed- have a somewhat random (& incrementally growing) list of 8, 9, or 10-letter words that might turn out to be useful along the way. One of my latest additions has, for instance, been OLDTIMER (featuring a rare succession of consonants). Additionally, I’m working on the Heterograms’ list that your son was kind enough to help you get a hold of… 🙂
I was referring to your “useful” list. I was curious as to the logic and criteria. Thanks for sharing!
Pleasure, as always -both logic & criteria can safely be described as fuzzy & multifaceted.
Sorry meant Sota.
official
Official here, quickly too, but only after failing to get solutions to many of the previous days’ puzzles. A win feels good.
Official, but unlike some others here, it wasn’t so quick. “Don’t go too fast, but I go pretty far.” Apologies to Melanie.
Official in my quickest time yet
A bit late to the party today!
I think these are the only two-word answers with this restrictive array. Tomorrow perhaps we’ll get another word bacchanal. Lately the puzzle seems to lurch from one extreme to the other.
Uh’Oh! Not again! 12/12: HEAVES – STRONGBOX15/2 (Will be reposting if & when the appropriate field appears).
