FOUNDDRAWBRIDGE
Oa in 10 minutes.
Ditto…
Me too! I am always surprised when I solve it!
Same here, always surprised! I used newfound drawbridge
A few added letters
Same, less efficient but it works
found drawbridge first.
quickest by far <1min
FOUND / DRAWBRIDGE and same.
Started with BEFRIEND and then shifted to UNFRIEND and in the process, my eyes saw DRAWBRIDGE and what do you know? The solution was quickly FOUND.
Well it is a pleasure to be 2nd to you on this day
FOUND DRAWBRIDGE
In 15 minutes.
FOUND- DRAWBRIDGE at last! Stuck on FIREGUARD, FUNBOARD and other compound words with no connections 😖
FUNBOARD — DRAWBRIDGE works, so you got two solves. The lack of the ING suffix today really limits the connections (that I can see anyway).
Ha! Amazing how sometimes I just do not see what’s in front of my eyes !
Same. I saw BRIDGE right away and then saw DRAW after focusing on the W, which I thought would be hard to place, and that was that.
As did I, though with watching the Olympics was a little distracted so it took a bit longer, though probably only 15 minutes of actual thinking about the puzzle.
OA
FOUND — DRAWBRIDGE
I looked at BREADBOARD but it wasn’t very efficient. Once I got DRAWBRIDGE, FOUND came quite rapidly from the remaining letters.
Befriend and Fiberboard weren’t any use either.
Oa
Another OA. Who will be the first to add some variety? :
Fungoid Drawbridge is a tiny little bit different 🙂
Seen in the landscapes of The Last of Us….
OA quickly, like others
Refound drawbridge
found – drawbridge
I found NEWFOUND first and went with that: NEWFOUND – DRAWBRIDGE. I didn’t bother to check that NEW was superfluous.
FOUND – DRAWBRIDGE
Which was the whole point of the puzzle. Took a while though.
OA as well.
Found OA Found Drawbridge quickly enough. I foresee a handful of alternative lead-ins to Drawbridge but no solutions without it.
Off topic:
Does anybody here play the NYT Strands game? For 3 of the last 4 days no theme has been stated. This is a bit aggravating. Is everyone else having this or am I just the lucky one?
If it matters, I always play on my phone.
I don’t know what may be happening to your device but the theme is always there. Today was “That’s a stretch!”, yesterday was “Book it”, the day before was “Daily Delivery” and the day before that was “Bedtime Story”.
Thanks. The only theme that showed for me was Daily Delivery.
I managed to solve them all but it took a lot longer and with a bunch of words not related to the invisible theme.
Tomorrow I will try a fresh search for the puzzles instead of using bookmarked pages.
The “themes” are always there, but I am spoiled by Radioactive Flower’s hints for his LBs!! The ones in Strands are sometimes not obvious to me so I usually find a few words for clues, and then it dawns on me what they mean! 🙂
For example, today’s was all about yoga positions or whatever and I wasn’t familiar with a single one. That does add to the challenge of course, so it’s all good.
❤️
OA. I knew it had to be.
TI: The trolls got the memo for the meetup
After messing with BEFRIEND and REBOUND for a while, I found REFOUND. Then DRAWBRIDGE. Then I dropped the RE.
OA here after finding BRIDGE early on. Took a bit to put DRAW in front as I went on to the BEFRIEND ing route 🙂
Maybe Mark will have some other options but this looks pretty constrained today.
Hi Susan. I’m not seeing much else today unfortunately. Especially after a day like yesterday. I’ll take a closer look later Thanks. 🙂
Ugh, I should’ve got this one (yesterday’s solved in 10 minutes). I found BRIDGE and FOUND right away, later DRAW and DRAWN. Settled for 3w: NEWFOUND DRAG GIB.
Same here SLC. There were so words I couldn’t pair. Ended up with FIREBUG-GOD-DAWN
OA, at last. Struggled for a while with FIREBOARD (surprised Wireboard not a word). Then used FIREGUARD which led me somehow to DRAWBRIDGE and then found FOUND.
Found — Drawbridge after Aground, Befriend, Unfriend, and Regard (shallow) rabbit holes.
Here is the full list including Scrabble words:
** Don’t look at the list if you haven’t finished solving the puzzle **
(The first number is a count and the second number is the number of letters used)
1 – 15 found / drawbridge
2 – 18 funboard / drawbridge
3 – 17 fungoid / drawbridge
4 – 18 newfound / drawbridge
5 – 17 refound / drawbridge
6 – 16 unfond* / drawbridge
7 – 17 unfound* / drawbridge
OA as well. Earlier today tried DRAWN, BRAWN, BADGER, and BEFRIEND. Came back this evening and quickly saw BRIDGE, then got the answer almost immediately.
