I just clicked on here by mistake looking for today’s puzzle, and stumbled onto the OA. I can’t imagine anyone getting this one without using outside sources… Glad I didn’t waste time on it. I might take a look at it later to see if I come up with some kind of solution using words that actual human beings use.
LYCOPODS SHIPWORM
Agreed, Samuel.
polymorphic crowds

POLYMORPHIC – CROWDS.
After seeing the OA by mistake, I was going to try and look at the original puzzle and see if there was a better answer using more common words, but before I even got there I was wondering if POLYMORPHIC would work… Then I stumbled across here again and saw your answer before I even got to today’s official puzzle… But I’m pretty sure if I had typed in POLYMORPHIC and seen the C-W-D-S left over I would have gotten CROWDS. I’m calling it a solve, still glad I didn’t waste more time on this one.

In protest of today’s crummy OA, I’m going back to yesterday’s answer of QUAHOG GREMLIN… Clam fritters for damn critters!
I realized the futility of my protest, so I’m back to today’s OA. Out-of-shape, in a cape. Fatman and Blobbin.
OA – good thing I have friars for friends!
CYCLOIDS-SHIPWORM
Same here:
Cycloid – Shipworm
Cycloid – Shipworms
I knew there would be a worm answer lol
CYCLOIDS – SHIPWORM here, too.
POLYMORPHIC CROWDS
Same.
Tough array today with only two vowels to deal with. I accidentally saw the OA while looking for today’s puzzle (like Samuel), and tried coming up with an alternate solution. Unfortunately I failed today.
Closest I could get was PHILOSOPHIC – CROWDY, leaving out the M.
DOWP* POLYCHROISM*
*Both in MW
Always easy when there’s only a couple of vowels.

SHIPWORMS and couldn’t pair it. Interesting word though, it was a guess and I had no idea these creatures existed.
Today, I am a letterbox loser
