Not too bad when I cracked the high greens. Looking back I could have jumped from my lower ones too.

Redcrayons · 25/05/2022 12:23

think I’m getting a bit bored of this as I’m heading to google earlier and earlier. Annoyingly I could probably have got this a bit earlier if I’d used one of high colds in another way.

Wallawallakoala · 25/05/2022 12:57

@GrouchyKiwi i see why because there are different interpretations of 999

Wallawallakoala · 25/05/2022 12:58

It's a direct synonym of 999

GrouchyKiwi · 25/05/2022 13:07

Wallawallakoala · 25/05/2022 12:58

It's a direct synonym of 999

I was worried about that. I've tried all the synonyms, and have even resorted to using a thesaurus for the words I hadn't tried. Argh.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 25/05/2022 13:11

@GrouchyKiwi there is a 3 letter word that can be put in front of both 999 and target

InMySpareTime · 25/05/2022 13:11

@GrouchyKiwi precede both of them with for

GrouchyKiwi · 25/05/2022 13:24

Oh FFs, I thought I had tried that about 50 words ago. Even have different versions of it in there.

Thanks, both.

Got there eventually thanks to the clues on here. Made more sense than yesterday at least.

JaneJeffer · 25/05/2022 14:13

I don't understand why it goes all off centre. It was normal at first but I left it for a while and when I went back all the right hand side was cut off.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Not too bad for me today although I did take 1 hint (787) as I had hit a dead end. I then got it in 4 from that.

ErrolTheDragon · 25/05/2022 15:56

I got fed up at 949 (somewhat ironically), took a hint which was a good one (961) and got it from that.

987 was my top word for a long time. Yeah, that so narrowed it down. 🙄
