DISBELIEF-FRUMPY immediately, which was totally unexpected; I thought this would be awful. But given that anything with ‘IF’ was disqualified immediately, that narrowed the field. (And PERFUME was gone because of EP).
Phew and waiting on Kanishk and RF – hope to see you soon, lovelies!
Good luck, everyone, and happy Tuesday.
Good job, Irim, congrats on the instant solve! Failed today – IFY, SUL and ED was fiendish, I was unable to find a match for MYSLEF and RUBIDIUM. And was disappointed that words like FELDSPAR and DYSPROSIUM were unplayable. Spent almost an hour on this one.
Waiting for you, RF, hope to see your solution soon!
