Same!
Same two alternatives here, before I spotted the Magpie. I correctly pegged yesterday’s answers as requiring Baptize, and I suspect today’s answers require Everybody….
Me three. I’ll take it. After finding it hard to let go of PYODERMIA and BOARDGAME
those and BODYBOARD(ER) for me
Thought I might be the only one with this solution. Definitely lends itself to those of medical field. Got detoured trying to make Bombardier and then Boardgame work, to no avail.
Same here. Discovered by accident that PRIMAGE is a word too.
Same here
Me too! Got EVERYBODY but couldn’t see MAGPIE. PRIMAGE it was.
Same. The primage always comes before every body in a (predatorially) capitalistic culture
MAGPIE — EVERYBODY
I got EVERYBODY right away and worked backwards from there.
Same
Of course the OA leapt right out at me. 🐦

thanks Mark! 🙏

BTW, DW, what do you think of the app Merlin? Everybody is downloading it this beautiful Spring in the Northeast 🦅
Left it open on the table (accidentally) outside. Came back 30 min later. 42 calls Not sure I believe it
🤣
I love Merlin! I use it to identify all the birds in my backyard all year long.
Merlin is GREAT, but it is not perfectly accurate. In North America, I would say it is more than 90% accurate. I am in Japan at the moment, and, sadly, it is nearly useless here; BirdNET works somewhat better.
I was nowhere near the OA.
Wordplay:
8-letters:

Clue: The underestimated one.

I like how you’re making RF look it up. I also wonder how many of us know who underdog is!
“There’s no need to fear, Underdog is here!”
Not bird nor plane nor even frog – just little old me: Underdog!
I remember … it has been quite awhile

My favorite animated series was in my childhood too. It was Flame of Recca. I watched it together with my brothers every weeknights. Then, Dragon Balls.
I had completely forgotten about Underdog’s Secret Super Energy Pill ring – did y’all read about it in this article Mark gave us … interesting that they changed the name from Energy to Vitamins.
Underdog
Hey, Mr.MARKIESCE & Sir ROGRRR…

Primage – Everybody
primage – everybody
PRIMAGE – EVERYBODY
Pay-to-play.
OA, but it took a while.
3 worders
BOARDGAME / EVERY / YIP
DIMEBAG / GORP / PERVY
VAPED / DIMEBAG / GORY
and BOP-PYODERMIA-AVERAGE for, as Matt says, those of the medical field. Or, for those who remember SOTA💐, folks with a Greek inclination
All these solutions have been guessed. There are no other solutions. Not even scrabble words.
1 – 15 magpie / everybody
2 – 17 preimage / everybody
3 – 16 primage / everybody
OA
OA after 2 days that I bombed. My neighbor’s lovable black pug was named Magpie and she loved everybody. True story!
Quick OA for me today. Seems it’s 1-2-3 for me or it’s hours, I guess I see it or I don’t.
Found PREIMAGE – EVERYBODY and PRIMAGE – EVERYBODY, but not the OA. Disappointed BOMBARDIER went nowhere, but I’ll take the W!
OA
No two worder for me today. I settled with
BAM-MYOPIA-AVERAGE
Also
GYRE-EMBODIED-DEPRAVE(D)
Like LWM, I missed EVERYBODY and so ended without the OA for Tuesday’s LB and with no 2-word solution at all.
My 3-worder, which I Don’t like, is:
VAPORED DIB BIGAMY
I tried BOMBARDIER and PRODIGY and couldn’t get matches for them.
Early on, I even entered PRIMAGE, surprised it was accepted by LB, but I didn’t see the obvious simple followup EVERYBODY to it.
Oh well, five minutes to new challenges!
