ZOMBIFIEDDRUNK
got the OA quickly today after frustrating previous days
OA as well, Happy Hallowe’en!
OA for me too. Good TI.
Same here, a great TI!
Yup, there’s Zombie, as anticipated for Halloween (but admittedly found only after the equally thematic Demonize / Demonized failed to pair).
Excellent OA, loaded with TI even without the holiday tie-in. Truth in advertising – the drink ain’t called a Zombie for nothing.
Fun OA after also letting go of DEMON and FEIND
Even MORIBUND was in there, which is apt for Halloween and so I definitely thought I was onto something. This one took me a while.
Oh Yeah, Fiend! BwaHaHa!
OA and the TI doesn’t need any help from me; though I keep picturing the kids post sugar rush crash tonight.
I am somewhat new to this thread, may I ask – what does TI stand for?
OA is “original answer” I surmise, is that right?
Kind regards from Sweden
TI is “thematic integrity.” Welcome to the madhouse!
Oh, and yes, OA is “original answer,” and PSW is “playable Scrabble word.” LB uses an odd word list that excludes a lot of PSWs and includes a lot of non-PSWs, so some of us prefer to play by the Scrabble list.
Clearly I need more coffee, as I could have done this all in one message. Anyway, if you see someone post a solution with an asterisk, that word was a PSW but LB didn’t not accept it.
Correction: did not, not didn’t not.


I believe OA is Official Answer, but you get the idea.
Get ready to be zombified!!!!
Monk bird not accepted. The horror.
Zombified-dunker
Zombified-debunker
I did not see drunk or drunker.
Defeminized, uniformed and demonized did not work out.
Yes neither did nonfeminized no matter how stuck i became on it.
I was amused upon getting the OA.
You would be, seeing your avatar!
zombified – drunk
today, it was just Zombified matching up with one of these words:
debunker drunk drunken drunker dunker
OA happily accepted, with excellent TI!
I was also taken with KUDZU – UNIFORMED, which can be an all-too-accurate visual for gardening in the South. . .aside from the little matter of a B left dangling uselessly behind.
OA here too! Grateful to get it quickly. Happy Halloween!
OA finally after giving up on MODERNIZE, DEFEMINIZE, BUNKBED, KOMBI – which led me to ZOMBIE and lo and behold, another word I have never used before – ZOMBIFIED. Not a big fan of zombi movies, but kudos to Mr. Ezersky for some TI!
Zombified Drunk. I love it!
ZOMBIFIED – DUNKER for me today.
Figured the Z would be used in an ~IZE word, and went through a number of them looking for a solution. As soon as I saw ZOMBIE I knew it had to be part of a Halloween-themed OA and ZOMBIFIED jumped right out. Little miffed I didn’t see DRUNK in the leftovers though, could’ve saved a letter.
Instead I will imagine an undead Air Jordan.

OA after an age messing with the likes of Firebombed, Firebird, Memorized, Modernized etc.
Lucky to get the OA because I wanna spell it zombiefied
For Nov 1: FREAKISH-HANGDOG. somehow yesterday’s spookiness prevails, esp. since I can’t get the date to change on the site
my smoke detectors freaked out at 3 am and i’ve been up trying to get this since. I just got the same as you, and there’s nowhere to gloat.
Freakish Hangdog…sometimes they come easy.
Wonder if horndog would have been accepted?
