Good LB day!
WARMUP / PERICLITATED
Way too hot…
Warmup Plicated
PRACTICUM-MILDEW
WARMUP-PLICATED
REDUPLICATED-DIMWIT
Cool. I was a dimwit for missing DIMWIT. 🙂
You more than made up for it!
Reduplicated dimwit is brilliant. And suggestive . . .
*WATERCUP-PRELIMITED
*WATERCUP good in Merriam-Webster
UPWARPED-DALMATIC
MUCID-DRAWPLATE*
*DRAWPLATE good in Merriam-Webster, Collins, Wiktionary
WILTED-DUMPCART*
*DUMPCART good in Merriam-Webster, Collins, Wiktionary
REPTILARIUM-MILDEWCIDAL*
*MILDEWCIDAL good in Wiktionary
PRELIMITED-DUCLAW*
Surprised no one had this solution yet. LB accepts DEWCLAW (which is two words) but not the alternate one-word spelling. 🤷♀️
*MILDEWER-REDUPLICATE
*MILDEWER good in OED, Wiktionary
WIMPLE-EDUCRAT
PREDICATED-DUMILAW*
*DUMILAW good in Wiktionary
*PUMICATED-DRAWL
*PUMICATED good in OED, Collins, Wiktionary, Scrabble UK (SOWPODS)
PLACITUM-MILDEWER*
*MILDEWER good in OED, Wiktionary
PRACTICUM-MILDEWCIDE
Wimple Educrat (which I did not expect to be accepted).
Wow, good one!
WARMUP-PLICATED
Same. Angry that WATERPUMP was not accepted.
Same. Don’t forget to stretch!
Warmup plicated
Didn’t actually know plicated was a word, just tried it since I’d found implicated
Same answer. And didn’t know plicated was a word.
Wished I’d thought to try it as I recircuited back to warmup multiple times before finally landing on the OA. Now off to do a datadump before I rededicate my efforts elsewhere!
REDUPLICATED-DIMWIT
Trying not to see this as a commentary on the propagation of our species.
REDUPLICATED DIMWIT, though I was a dimwit, as it took me a while to find the later, obsessed as I was with wanting it to end in R, and being really cross about the easy ‘WARMER’, and ditto ‘DWAM’, a Scottish word that means ‘stupor, daydream’ or ‘DAWM’, which is a coin = 1/40th of a rupee.
Got there in the end – and reduplicated dimwit is sounding an awful lot like many government cabinets/ministries at the moment!
REDUPLICATED — DIMWIT
I didn’t see DIMWIT until the very end.
Spent lots of time going down dead ends like CREAMWARE, DUPLICATE/DUPLICATED, PREDICT/PREDICTED, PREWIRED, PERICARDIUM, PERICARDITIC, and CLIMACTIC.
LB didn’t accept PREWARM, PREADMIT, or CREWMATE
OA
WILDER—REDACTED—DUMP
Another REDUPLICATED – DIMWIT
TI: idiots repeating folly
Lemmings?
Government?
REDUPLICATED DIMWIT as well.
Plus WILDCAT TRAMP PRIEDIEU*
* in MW and Scrabble.
For Latin lovers 🙂
CRAWLED DUPLICATUM*
*common legal term and also a type of seaweed: Sargassum duplicatum.
Went on a word-check site to look up something else, saw DUMPCART (which LB doesn’t accept) and stuck WILED on the front. I’ll take it.
REDUPLICATED DIMWIT
There was a Michael Keaton movie about 30 years ago called Multiplicity. The main character could duplicate himself, but when he duplicated from a duplicate, the quality of his brain suffered as happens when one duplicates that way. Put me in mind of the movie.
I danced all over the solution with DUPLICATED, REPLICATED, PRACTICAL, DELIRIUM, etc., but never tried REDUPLICATED or PRACTICUM, and didn’t know PLICATED was a word … kind of a dimwit but that is why I love this game. I wish that I started playing a long time ago and am awe of the very talented players with expansive vocabularies. I learn from you everyday so, thank you for your comments, contributions, and solutions.
PRELIMITED-DUCLAW*
OA, after a long slog through SO MANY NICE, LONG WORDS.
Warmup
Plicated
After so many wonderful words that just wouldn’t work
CLIMATE UPWARD
Without a connector letter
Reduplicated dimwit. Got reduplicated quickly, then all day on lots of good words before trying wildcat a while and seeing dimwit. Tried mildewed but didn’t see practicum
When I got here I was 90% sure that my answer was *not* the OA. PRACTICUM MILDEW seemed eccentric … too much of a stretch. Wrong!

When is the last time you used or heard the word “practicum?”
