The answers are:
HYPERACTIVEELM
CHAP-PRIMITIVELY
Same. A Neanderthal?
Same, almost immediately
Good ones!
Mine were
Prevailer Rhythmic
Also got CHAP-PRIMITIVELY for 15/2, not quite as good as OA
Hamper->Reactively
Ditto.
Likewise.
aka passive-aggressive
My guess as well.
mine too.
Same here
Primitively -> yacht
Me as well.

Copycat
Hey, Mr.RAMANATHAN,
Double thumbs up! 👍👍
You got it! COPYCAT, indeed! Yay!!! 🎉🥳
☢️🌹
Hi RrrF,
Nobody likes to be called a COPYCAT.
😅
CIU
AED
MLO
WRK
CLUE: (un)friendly
Could do:
DIEWALKURE ECOM
but in reality Die Walkure is two German words with some special characters and I don’t know about ECOM.
I tried to work with ARMORCLAD but the MO sequence stops it.
Hahaha
Oops! 😅
Can’t do ECOM for the same MO reason.
I do think now that the second word, just the second word, sounds like a not too hot country singer 🎤
or a not too hot actor
Or – for the second word – sounds like a very famous physician author in the late spring or maybe early fall but not in the middle of the summer. 😎
Crowdmaker Rudie?
I also like Ludic Crowdmaker (but doesn’t work because I and C are on the same side).
BTW I now understand the word ludricrous better, thanks 🙂
Hey, FRANZzEE2,
CROWDMAKER – RUDIE is missing an L.
Sure is! I do still like the idea of a ludic crowdmaker though.
Shame it’s no go.
CORDIAL—LUKEWARM
Ah, I just saw this, and I think you are correct as it fits with the parentheses. 🙂
Hey, MARKIE,
🎉🥳WOW!!! You got the OA! YAY!!!🎉🥳
Double thumbs up! 👍👍
☢️🌹
I came up with CORDIAL — LEUKEMIA but it’s missing the W (and I am glad since it is a terrible oxymoron). I also got WORLDWAR , WARMAKER, CARMAKER, CRAWLER, WARLIKE, and CRACKER.
Your clue is interesting with the parentheses.
I will work on it later if I can.
😉🤗
Milch Hyperactive
Hyperactively Yam
hyperactively – yam as well
HYPERACTIVE – ELM
“burárum… Do not be hasty, little Entling.”
OA for me too: Hyperactive Elm (maybe in Middle-earth or Oz, but not here). Also Pelvic Champerty (reproductive rights lawfare) and Hyperthermic Cavil (It’s too hot! Or is it just me?)
MARCHER-REPETITIVELY
HYPERMILER REACTIVE
Same
Marcher-Repetitively for me as well. Better TI than the OA.
CHAP — PRIMITIVELY
HYPERACTIVELY — YAM
Played around with TEACHERLY, ARCHETYPE, and PRIMAVERA.
It seems like there are lots of nice words today!
Hi Bill!
I found ARCHETYPE, leaving only ILMV and thought I had it made but LB wouldn’t accept MILVA or VILMA or MAVILIA to be my starter because they are just names. I did find out Milva is a famous Italian singer-actress who died a few years ago.
Early on i found PRIVACY and i made
PRIVACY YETI IMPEL LEAH
but LB didn’t like Leah.
I always thought she’s equally nice as Rachel.
Anyway that impelled me on to:
IMPEL LEVER REACH HEARTY
😎
ARCHETYPE does leave PRIMITIVELY but it can’t connect, so I ditched ARCHETYPE for CHAP, and it worked. There seem to be lots of cool words today (I also found CHARTERPARTY, but couldn’t do much with it).
Primetively yacht
Primatively yacht
PREVAILER-RHYTHMIC.
I pevailed-whew!
I PREVAILED…
I was finally a PREVAILER-RHYTMIC as well!
me too! Figured this wasn’t the OA, so went back for more and soon found it, too. That HYPER- prefix was just too tempting.
PREVAILER starts off making a star shape that’s pretty close to symmetrical. Was fun to watch it unfold, as I wait for the caffeine to kick in . . .
I too prevailed as a PREVAILER- RHYTHMIC
Chap – Primitively
primitively -yacht
Same…
Hamper Reactively
Same
Hyperthermic cleaver
Like a hot knife through butter!
Boom (OA) 💥
Hyperthermia
Cleave or cavil
Sorry – hyperthermia
Sorry for typo meant to write hyperthermic
Settled for Cleaver Rhythmic Caper (murder to music?) after Vetch Hypermail was not accepted.
that’s a good one ☝️
😎
march hyperactivity
nm, missing the l
IMPACTIVE – EARTHLY
IMPACTIVE / EARTHLY
First time I have not seen my answer on here!
An LB very short story.
Only one word is OED-only.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The CHAMP—, —PRIMITIVELY a MARCHER—,
—REPETITIVELY seeks the MYTH—HYPERACTIVELY.
He’s the PREVAILER— on —RHYTHMICITY,
the IMPEACHER°—, sometimes —REACTIVELY,
always IMPACTIVE—, on the —EARTHLY,
TETRACYCLIC—CHAMPLEVÉ.
The End.
🙂
Pelvic Champerty
Love it
May have missed it but did not see
MYTH HYPERACTIVELY. found as i was trying hard to get a LOTR MYTHRIL match
Yes, I used it in my short story.
I liked it too.
☕️
Sigh. I always try to get it in 4. But ive tried for an hour and im stumped. If you can show me a 4-word answer Ill be impressed.
Sure ok. When home I’ll run my Quad routine, since it’s on my desktop.
Quads are a heavy lift, computationally speaking, but I can throttle it; for example by constraining it to only find 15/4s.
CHAP PREVAIL LIMIT TYPE. orcare you meaning no repeat letters which is much harder
VERT TIC CHAMP PLY —- oh that was fun and new
Good ones Oscar!
Here’s a few more I found:
CRAM—MYTH—HYPE—EVIL
CRIM—MYTH—HELP—PAVE
ITCH—HARP—PAVE—ELMY
TYPE—EVIL—LIMA—ARCH
I think all tested OK.
OA
Hamper-Reactively
Chap, primitively
No two today.
MAYHAP – PARTICLE – EVE
Night before the next CERN experiment.
walk in stride with excessive enthusiasm?
I was on the verge of giving up when I spotted RHYTHMIC and I was quickly able to pair it with PREVAILER which I had found earlier. So:
PREVAILER-RHYTHMIC
CHAMP PRIMITIVELY or PRIMITIVELY YACHT. Somehow missed seeing CHAP. Love these other answers too!
