    1. Could not play whippy which would have gone with precautionary. So stuck with whip and that is how I got to protectionary.

  1. Potica Anywhere, thanks to the proliferation of Slovenian restaurants. I note this turns out to be pronounced Poteetsa, a word I’d heard but never seen in writing before. Also found Anywhere Ectopic and Whip Protectionary, both of which define themselves.
    Any of these is an improvement on today’s OA, if you ask me.

      1. Yes, my LB page was stuck in yesterday, so I came here (seeing the OA of course, thus losing today’s puzzle). I had to restart the computer before LB updated.

  2. Would have been great if I could actually play today’s game. Four hours after it usually loads and still no Letter Boxed for today.

    Finally came on to see if I was the only one. 🙁

      1. mine updated at 4:06am Eastern time
        this morning, but only after I re-entered and executed an answer for yesterday’s LB, and then refreshed the browser again – after that I got the January 26 LB.
        But I just want back to sleep after all that.

        1. ANYHOW WHIP PROTECT

          ANYWHERE ECTOPIC

          ANYWHERE ENCRYPTION

          I tried to do something with PRACTICIAN or
          PROTECTION but no dice.

  3. WITCH – HONEYTRAP, which is loaded with TI, and a VERY rare example of me finding something that hasn’t already been posted by the time I wake up!

  4. All my browsers are still stuck on yesterday’s bloody polka. Came here trying not to look at solutions, but I failed on that front, too. I feel robbed and bereft.

      1. I tried to access today’s Letterboxed on my phone on both Chrome and the default browser and it would only show me yesterday’s puzzle. Does anyone know why this would be. I figured there was an issue with the site so I came on here to see what people were saying. Unfortunately I saw that others were able to do the puzzle, and I saw the OA and the top posted answer. This was annoying as it eliminated both answers from potential answers I could find. Managed to get on LB on my laptop for some reason and luckily found an answer I hadn’t seen on here, and it only took me a few minutes:

        ANYWHERE ECTOPIC.

        I also found: PREREACTION, REACTIONARY, WHIP, CROTCHETY and RHOTIC.

  5. I was sure I had something with encryption. No avail.
    I was also sure I had something with Twitchy. Couldn’t get anywhere.
    Ended up yielding.

  6. ANYWHERE – ENTROPIC, which doesn’t exactly tell a story, TI-wise, but there’s a consistency there. It’s also a little easier on the eyes than ECTOPIC.

    That’s CORIANDER and CILANTRO a few days ago, and CARAWAY today. Interesting.

  7. I had to do a new web search using “LETTERBOX JANUARY 26” in order to get it to load. Of course, if anyone is reading this post who hasn’t yet found a way to get the puzzle to load, you probably got cheated and saw the answers.

  8. NEOPHYTIC—CRAW
    13/2

    ANYWHERE—ENTROPIC
    ANYWHENCE—ENTROPIC

    I like that theme, as entropy exists everywhere, and always has.
    I could not access the LB site until this morning. ☕

  9. REACTIONARY – YARWHIP*
    *not accepted, but as far as I can tell, it is an alternative (and perhaps reactionary) name for the European bar-tailed godwit–a migratory wader in the family Scolopacidae.

    YARWHIP:
    n. 1. (Zool.) The European bar-tailed godwit; – called also yardkeep, and yarwhelp. See Godwit.
    Webster’s Revised Unabridged Dictionary, published 1913 by G. & C. Merriam Co.

    1. Hey Thomas!
      apparently PARTICIPACTION is not a word to LB.
      I looked it up on Wikipedia and looks like PARTICIPACTION is a proper name, of a charity, and LB usually doesn’t accept proper names – even common names like CHET or HOWIE. TONY did sneak through.
      PARTICIPATION won’t work on today’s LB since A and T are on same side.

  10. Super frustrating today! Reached my 2 hour time limit and cussed out loud! 😂

    Great words too…
    Twitchier, Heartier, Protraction,
    Retraction, Practitioner, Reactionary,
    Recaption, Trophic, Trophy, Entropy,
    Witchery, Carphone, Preachery, Hyphen,
    Prophetic, Poachery, Preachier, Recrown

    Anyone have solutions with any of these?

    Respect to the Wordsmiths that solved it today 🍻

    1. I was disappointed that prehypnotic wasn’t accepted. It’s a perfectly good and much used word. Efficiently, then, it pairs with caw for the win in 2.

    2. Thanks for doing this for us Dave. It must take a lot of time and it’s much appreciated. I always want to see if there were solutions with words I found but couldn’t pair. I learned like 30 new words from your list. Doubt I’ll remember more than a few, but very helpful.
      🍻

      1. No problem. My name is Dave.

        It takes 2 minutes to copy window.gameData to a file and recompile the app. The app runs in 2 seconds including getting the Scrabble words. So it’s no big deal. I try to guess the solution before running the software, but often don’t get a 2 word solution.
