here
Colorful – Longitude
me too. i want to visit these colorful longitudes.
LOGIC-COUNTRIFIED here after about 15 minutes. Tried CORNFIELD, FLOUNCIER, REDUCTION (GOLFER didn’t work, sadly), etc. COUNTERFOIL foiled me!
Kanishk and RF, luvs, hope to see you soonest!
Happy Monday, all, and good luck!
Irim, I LOVE your answer! Well done. For me, an instant GLORIFIED – DEDUCTION today.
RF, we’re eagerly waiting for your solution. Nothing else to share, so happy Monday, everyone!
GENDERFLUID – DICTION.
Yippee! The triumvirate triumphed once more!
Same! GLORIFIED DEDUCTION useful at tax time 😁
GIRLFRIEND – DEDUCTION
Same here

FLOUNCIER-REGIFTED
GLORIFIER-REDUCTION
Fluoride enterologic
Foreigner-relucted
FOUNDER-RETICULE
Lovely.
No G.
GLORIFIED DEDUCTION for me
FOREIGNER-RETICULED
Counterfirer – Reglued?
Can’t confirm counterfirer but it seems like it should be a word ??
OA TOOK A BIT
OA after a spell.
also DIGONEUTIC* CORNFIELD
*MW
GLORIFIED-DEDUCTION
LOGIC – COUNTRIFIED here too. OUTFIELD(ER) was my initial red herring.
I would never have expected to hop on here with 50 posts already and yet have a unique solution! In fact, I had two: first FLOUNDERED – DIGENETIC, then FLUORID – DIGENETIC. Both get the Scrabble and OED seals of approval.
Foreigner & Reticuled
A reticule was a term used during the Regency period in England for a woman’s handbag. By sticking a D on the end, it becomes a past tense verb.
LB accepted Reticuled but I cannot find a definition for this word.
LOGIC COUNTRIFIED
Obscuriana:
FUNGICIDE ELOCUTER*
*old showbiz shorthand for elocutionist.
“The Lyceumite and Talent,” 1908.
OA pretty quickly.
UNGLORIFIED* – DUCT
*MW
UNCLOG-GENTRIFIED
Cogent trifluoride(MW) for now. I keep getting different puzzles when I go away and come back. Anyone else having that problem today?
Logfire + encountered
Fridge Elocution
Logic countrified Hey, I resemble that remark!
GLORIFIED-DEDUCTION
I also had LOGIC COUNTRIFIED
(Among the words I was annoyed to discover I could *almost* make was COUNTERFEIT)
ROENTGENOLOGIC – COUNTRIFIED (Sounds like Chernobyl. Or some of the isolated former plutonium production sites in the US.)
Did anyone get a longer/least efficient answer?
FLOUNCIER – RIDGELET Hard one today
