LAMETDCRIPBO
The answers are:
RECORDABLEEMPTIER
IMPACTOR-READABLE
Same here. Not much TI but a quick solve. I’ll take it!
Same: to see the writing on the wall just before you run into it.
COMPATIBLE EARLDOM
SAME!!
Me three.
Friendly neighboring estates.
Same. Couldn’t give up on compatible.
COMPATIBLE – ELDORADO
I invented ELDORADO and it’s accepted. COMPATIBLE left only two letters but it’s hard to pair.
👍
I completely agree. Comparable and compatible used so many letters I but were difficult to pair.
compatible eldorado
Exactly what I got. Not efficient, but I will take the win. I was very surprised that eldorado was accepted.
I got that too. Surprised that EMBRAID was not accepted. It’s in many dictionaries, including the OED.
Same here. Took me forever!!
Adaptor Reclimb
👍
I got this solution as well~
Wordlist: ADAPTOR ADORABLE CAPABLE COMPILER DIMPLE EMPTIER REACTOR READAPT TABLOID
Same!
CARDIAC – COMPATIBLE
TI: Lovers?
Or transplant donor/recipient match?
Nice theme(s)!
Love this one! (pun sort of intended :-)!
Me too
CARDIAC / COMPATIBLE here too.
Finally!
That’s what I got…
Better hope your pacemaker and or your workout is!
I gave up earlier, then this evening I returned and finally got CARDIAC COMPATIBLE. Took awhile!
Same for me.
ADAPTOR—RECLIMB 14/2
COMPATIBLE—ELDORADO
🤴👸🏰
PARODIABLE—ELECTROMOTOR
🎭⚡🧲
Great list Mark! I can always count on you to add to my new word list 🙂 ADAPTOR-RECLIMB here as well and mercifully quick today.
ADAPTOR-RECLIMB here!
RECORDABLE EPITOME
This was mine too, and I think a touch more elegant than the OA.
15/2.COMPATIBLE ECARD
Same
Got this also; though I have never felt that way when someone sent me one of those goofy things.
COMPATIBLE-ERODIBLE was my particularly rubbish solution today.
Better than earldom. I thought I tried erodible maybe tried erodable. Ooops
I actually like COMPATIBLE—EARLDOM! Sounds like a happy place.
DRAB – BIOCAMPATIBLE. No TI, but one seriously fun word.
🐦 BARBTAIL, BECARD, CARACARA, DORADITO, ELEPAIO, IORA, MOTMOT, PAROTIA, PIAPIAC, PIPIPI, PIPIT, RAIL, TIT, TOMTIT, TREMBLER 🐦🐦 BABBLER, BROADBILL, COOT, DIPPER, PARROT, PARROTBILL, PITTA, ROLLER, TATTLER, TREEPIE
BIOCOMPATIBLE, obviously.
Emptier Recordable Recordable Emptier.
Unsatisfying solve that took too long. Lots of churning about until I noticed -able and then easy.
compatible – erodible
PROTRACTIBLE–EARLDOM and MIDCAP–PROTRACTIBLE
Midcap is nifty, KP!
I had a bunch of familiar finds, from Cardiac Compatible and
Compatible Ecard / Eldorado to
Receptible Earldom and Recordable Epitome. Though come to think of it, did anyone else mention Receptible?
Moldier-receptable
I’ve seen a few of those!
EMBRACER and REPTILOID were accepted!!
Same!
Compatible earlid. I do not know what an earlid is but I’ll take it!!
I tried earpad with no luck. Wish I had tried earlid!
OA today: RECORDABLE — EMPTIER.
Not a very fun pair, but reminds me of old school cassette tapes. The recordable were the emptier!
IMPACTOR – RELOADABLE*
COMPEL-LIBTARD
Compatible Erodible
I found: RECOMPACT / TABLOID
I also found ACTOR / RABID / DIMPLE
and
ADAPTOR / RECLIMB
I came up with RECORDABLE – EMPTIABLE really quickly but it wasn’t accepted.
Wasted a bunch of time on other possibilities like PERMEATOR – RECORDABLE – EMIT before finally seeing the OA 😂
compel / libtard
I can’t believe this was an accepted answer, Dave! I wouldn’t have thought of it in a million tries. But on reflection, it’s unique, topical, and maximally efficient (yet repellent). So, good on you!
