The answers are:
JOURNALIZEEXEC
Journalize->Exilic
Me too.
JOURNALIZE – EXILIC
Fodor’s Babylon.
Me too.
I had never heard the word exilic, but itās in the dictionary!
(And surely EXEC is an abbreviation!)
OA, wasn’t sure about adding IZE to JOURNAL, but it was academic after rhat
Same here.
OA. I struggled with the second word because it never occurred to me that the abbreviated form of executive would be acceptable.
I agree. OA nonetheless.
Yet, JOURNALIZER was not?
Go figure!
JOURNALIZE / EXEC Good one, EK! Same for me.
OA in under a minute. My quickest solve yet.
What now? š®
For a couple of minutes there I was the most surprised person on the planet!
š
Same! OA on first try.
OA!
Yesterday by mistake I opened my web browser to this page and saw the OA before I played. Devastating!
Nooooo! I would feel sad too. Until tomorrow!
I hate that! And itās worse when the OA is a one-off in whole or part, as I believe to be the case today with Journalize.
I found the OA quickly enough but canāt come up with anything much for TI.
Forbes?
OAā¦
Dear diary,
I am a very important person! A lot of people are saying so, so many people, very important they tell me, so big, huuuge even. Everybody is saying it, very importantā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦..
š Haha. Hilarious, Mvua!
Like others, I stumbled into the OA .
So gratified by your presence š
I first tried Juice, quickly saw Journal, and OA popped up. Happy Debate night to all who celebrate.
OA.
I feel rich because I solved letterboxed for the 30th day in a row. š
š„šš¼šš¼
OA here as well
OA.. A bit of a struggle. Took longer than I am proud to admit to come up with EXEC after finally stumbling upon JOURNALIZE… But it’s done. On to other tasks .
You’re not alone! I found journalize quickly but just couldn’t see exec (or any other solution) for a ridiculously long time. ALIOW
Word Play:
6-letters:
_a_a_e
Hint: impressive residence.
Bungalow wreck?
š
When you say impressive do you mean palatially impressive or something more garage like?
I prefer Franzee2’s second solution, but I bet Radio had PALACE, the implied first solution in mind. I like how Franzee added a layer to Radio’s puzzle, who in turn adds puzzles to Mr. Ezersky’s puzzle……..
Hey, our first-born STEPHIE,
GOTCHA! š
ā¢ļøš¹
Hey, Mr. FRANZzEE2,
PALACE > GARAGE
Good job! š
I didn’t see GARAGE coming! Wow! š
ā¢ļøš¹
If I looked hard enough I’m sure there are garages at palace like prices! Auckland would be the place to start…
Franzee..:
Whichever solution, a man’s home is his -a-a-e.
NRE
DTC
ALG
IOH
CLUE: glow in the dark
code earthling…
glows when you’re looking at the matrix.
Hey, MVUAhhh,
Very nice solution. Very efficient too. Good job! šš
I found LIGHTNING but couldn’t anything with it, but then I found a 16/2 solve with a T connector.
Tried for a Lighting solution in vain as well. I have a whack job solution with a D connector.
So let’s try… Torchlighted Dating?
Hey, Sir BILL DUFFIN,
YEAH, it is a 16/2 with a T connector.
šš
ā¢ļøš¹
Torchlight Tanged. 16/2 with a T connector… but I don’t think so!
Hey, FRANZzEE2,
I’m glad you found a nice solution. You’re kinda almost there for the OA. š
ā¢ļøš¹
Headlight looked promising but couldn’t pair with anything.
North-light Traced just makes no sense and I don’t think hyphens are allowed. I’m stumped!
I got CANDLELIGHT — TORCH
I didn’t see HEADLIGHT, so maybe there are more solutions(?)
Split up your first word and I think you may see it. At least the one that I came up with. There may be others out there.
š
Ah you have it! Something with Nightlight/Nitelight would have been cute though.
Cradle Eon Nightlight???
Got CANDLELIGHT TORCH as well after some trial and error.
Hey, Sir BILL DUFFIN, Sir RYAN,
You both got the OA! Yay! Good job! š„³š
CANDLELIGHT – TORCH, indeed! š¤š¤š
ā¢ļøš¹
CANDLE TORCHLIGHT
Nevemind. Broke the rules lol
candlelight / torah
Hey, Mr. DAREDAVEL,
Kudos for finding another solution! ššš¤

Those are not words. š”

Agreed, Fishcake. Nonetheless ALIOW.
OA.
JOURNALIZE — EXILIC
Not happenin’ today – stuck on JOUNCE, JAILOR, REALIZE, and even came up with EXEC (is that a real word or just short for EXECUTIVE???!)
OA after a while. Was so pleased to come across JOURNALIZE (I guessed the IZE ending). I was really struggling to find anything decent until that point.
Thought this would be yet another 30-minute-plus-reluctant-3-solve once I saw the top row row of J X Z
Pleasantly surprised to find the OA in a couple of mins.
It be like that sometimes.
Same here. Started with a “You can’t be serious Mr. Ezersky!” but settled in and found OA rather quickly for a surprise.
Got journalist right away but thought exec was a forbidden abbreviation so went with exilic.
Sorry… I meant journalize
journalize – exec
Journalize excur* apparently in MW in 1913 . Lol
OA after first thinking it looked like a mess of an array. Found JOURNALIZE pretty quick though, and EXEC shortly after.
OA.
pretty easy today.
Looked also at JOURNALIZER which is an OED word, but couldn’t find a match for Journalizer.
Here is the full list. No Scrabble words today.
** Donāt look at the list if you havenāt finished solving the puzzle **
(The first number is a count and the second number is the number of letters used)
1 – 14 journalize / exec
2 – 16 journalize / exilic
Worked away at this all day but no luck. I have suggested recently that the puzzles with uncommon letters often seem easier due to fewer possibilities, but todayās proved me wrong. I just could not find a word in this array that used two of J, X, and Z. (MAXIMIZE and MAJORIZE would have been nice if there were an appropriate M!) I tried JUICER and COAXIAL, and then saw JOURNAL near the end, but it didnāt occur to me that JOURNALIZE was a word.
