I’m impressed how you got goldmine outdrinking to be accepted!!!!!!
But I missed MELO!
Good one. 🍻
I don’t think you got my point Mark. It’s not allowed!
Try the other way round
Yes, you’re right, I meant:
OUTDRINKING—GOLDMINE
I got turned around when inserting those emojis…
Anyway, that’s my story and I’m sticking with it.
😉 🍻
Why are you OUTDRINKING a GOLDMINE when you can be OUTRDRINKING a GOLEM?
😊yes! I guess the TI with goldmine struck me.
LURKED – DEMOTING instantly. The K was hard to deal with today!
Hoping to see my besties, RF and Irim soon. Have a great day everyone, Happy Saturday!

I just realised today is Pi Day. Happy Pi Day to everyone! 😉
Kanishk-boy, HAPPY PI DAY is the spangram for STRANDS today.
Yes, beshie Miss Irim and Kanishk-boy (claimed). Beshie is Filipino slang for close friends, variant for bestie.
Meanwhile my answer is: MOTIONING – GURKED.
I just jokingly typed in MOTIONING without expectation of a solve since it has too many repeat letters. Then, again, also jokingly typed in GURKED from the leftover letters, and surprisingly it was accepted. Hahaha…Will be back for a more serious solve. Hopefully I can find an alternate solution. Just took me 2 minutes to find this solution.

Lazy Saturday morning at a friend’s, so late to the party. Probably took…20 minutes? 25?
DELINKING-GOURMET here. Can’t believe I didn’t see kindling. Love yours, Kanishk, hon, and RF, just scrolled down to see your awesome one as well.
Congratulations, my besties, and everyone else. Have a wonderful weekend and happy Pi Day, all!
Off to hunt down toast now this is done. xx
