Too hard today. I did find BANKABILITY, OPTICIAN, IMPLICIT and ANTIBIOTIC. And MAN CITY has a certain newsworthy note (to some) this side of the pond this week.
No bueno for me either fishcake. Don’t feel bad.
Me too. Wanted myopic antibiotoc and politician to work but nope
Too tricky for me as well today. Was outletterboxed.
Had to stop playing around when COCKAMAMY was actually accepted 🙄
Attaboy, Steph! Although it’s usually spelled with an IE, still worth a try, given the puzzle masters’ penchant for Yiddish. Maybe it’s the British spelling, a mix-and-match approach to penchants…..
TOPONYMIC – CLICKBAIT. When you just can’t resist Googling a place name.
Will have to come back later for the birds…
🐦 TIT, KAKA 🐦🐦 PALM COCKATOO, POTOO, COOT, LOON
Aw man. Found CLICKBAIT but didn’t see TOPONYM. Don’t even know what TOPONYM means but I think I’ve seen the word before. BANKABILITY, LIKABILTY, ANTIBIOTIC and ANTILOCK all seemed promising but I ended up with a 3: BAM MYOPTIC CLANK.
Same for me, Peter—CLICKBAIT, then stalled. A solution seemed so likely, too, with so many available endings: -tion, -ability, -ly, -ic, etc. But lots of words to play with. 🙂
Does anyone else have little LB flashbacks? I was texting this AM and found myself hesitating to type E then R when the thought occurred, “I can’t do that—they’re right next to each other in that row.”
LMAO
Judy, yes. Esp. going from here to the spelling bee game. An odd brain stuttering.
No 2 worder for me today. Too distracted by clickbait to notice the topography.
BIOANALYTIC wasted no small amount of my time.
A miss from me. POLYTONALITY my favorite also ran
I know! It used a fair amount of letters, too. I usually miss the musical ones.
Missed today.
Ponytail was my first compound word.
Tough grid
But Ponytail is so fine! Sometimes the satisfaction of finding One Great Word is enough (see yesterday’s Brainfart).
I was on the lookout for NYM, in honor of the much-missed Sota, so when Clickbait fell into place and felt so right, i experimented and finally hit on Toponym, a word of which I was hitherto ignorant.
Glad I gave up when I did. 🙄
clickbait – toponym
Got Clickbait, then discarded it to torture myself anew cause didn’t know Toponym was a word. 🙂
Thanks for the welcome MVUA!
👍
Toponym? Are they kidding?
I agree! This was crazy. And click bait is (should be) two words. I got POLITICIAN and BANKABILITY but couldn’t use the rest of the letters for either. I protest! [grin]
Toponymic Clickbait
Took me a while, but I finally came up with the OA. Looks like this one only has two solutions, each a variant of the other.
Too rough in my opinion. We like having some options.
I knew clickbait had to be a word!! I just could not figure out that second word ! I opted to quit at 3 words: OPTIONAL LOCKMAN NOTABLY
