WAIT. They allow SHOJIS, but not LEGWARMERS? That’s crazy. It should be the other way.
Singular? I was struggling for a J word till I hit JIGSAW.
Hey Irim, I do believe it’s singular. Have you checked with Alice? I double checked SHOJIS and it took it.
I also found SHOWGIRLS (😍) but couldn’t pair it easily. The closest I could get was: JEREMIASʷ—SHOWGIRLS and wasn’t happy with it as I think most would say it’s a proper name.
I’ll check Alice now, sorry!
Oh, I know YOU checked it by putting it into LB, but how could Sam not take LEGWARMERS? That’s such a legit word.
Ok, so she has OA as her main, she suggests JAWHOLE-ERGOISM, but I tried JAWHOLE, it didn’t work.
and JEREMIAS-SHOWGIRL(S), which he doesn’t accept either, so singular, except for the plural of WORMHOLE.
JIGSAW-WORMHOLE

JIGSAW-WORMHOLE, which I suspect is singular, except for WORMHOLES.
Oof. I tried HEJIRA, it wouldn’t take it. Tried HOMEWARE, HOMEGIRL(S), WORMHOLE(S) as the first word, but the J was proving hard.
Finally saw JIGSAWS, then realised WORMHOLE would fit JIGSAW, so removed the S. Phew, about 15 minutes.
Kanishk and RF, can’t wait to see you and your solutions, mah besties!
Good luck, all, and happy Thursday.
Same here.
Failed! Saw JIGSAW but didn’t progress further from there.
Amazing job Miss Irim. Crossing my fingers for Kanishk-boy.
OA after toying around with HOMEGIRLS.
knew it had to be JIGSAW but WORMHOLE eluded me for a bit
OA today!
Saw Jigsaw and Worm very quickly. But it took awhile to find Wormhole. I think that was because I was focused on the word Whole instead of looking at Hole.
OA, but it took a little time. Once I took the “s” off of jigsaw, I was on my way.
Had JIGSAW and saw WORM, but missed the obvious OA. Also toyed with HOMEGIRLS and SHOWGIRLS, but was spelling JEREMIAS with an H in there, and LB wouldn’t take it anyway. When I saw LEGWARMERS i thought that must be the key, and tried SHOJI as a guess to link it, and was surprised it was accepted, but even more surprised when it wouldn’t take LEGWARMERS! Don’t care, calling it a solve. Sam has his system, I got mine.
I’m a Star Trek watcher, so I was excited to find it!
And yes, the same beef about LEGWARMERS.
