1:30 today, about 1:45 yesterday. Average week for me!

33 seconds today. Could have been quicker

Not too bad today. The grid took a bit of thought - initially had the wrong answer for 8A. 1:44 for me.

So it’s now happened to me, the ‘share’ function doesn’t work. 55s.

1A seemed a bit broad. How many London hotels starting with ‘The’??

00:35 playing on a laptop for the first time, bodes well!

Drywhitefruitycidergin · 09/06/2023 00:19

1:05 straightforward - expect some low times today

Really? The crossword was easy/fast, but with no greens there were too many options for the plusword.

Have to say I still find it annoying that it doesn't give you the leftover letters anywhere; & there's a bug in that it removes the incorrect plusword message after the first attempt. Did it in 1:30 & that included going backwards & forwards testing when the message showed up, plus trialling at least 5 pluswords. So I must've played a blinder on the crossword...

I'll explain how my brain processes pw later tomorrow to avoid spoilers @ifIwerenotanandroid but yes lack of greens didn't bother me.

ifIwerenotanandroid · 09/06/2023 00:59

Thanks, but no need. I just looked at it again (after doing wordle & quordle) & realised I'd been so thrown by having no greens that I forgot a basic rule!

Albaniarocks · 09/06/2023 05:18

0.33 today, found it straightforward although my brain didn't click immediately for the PW

JoyDivisionOvenGlovesx · 09/06/2023 05:59

48s, which is quick for me. All good.

sanityisamyth · 09/06/2023 06:41

1.02 today. PW made me think!

A new PB for me, and not on the laptop!

Well done @MarmiteWine

2:26 for me today. Didn't actually seem that hard but it was very jumpy with letters all over the place.

MarmiteWine · 10/06/2023 20:09

00:40 today

00:57 with lots of typos

JoyDivisionOvenGlovesx · 11/06/2023 06:01

46s for me today. Very straightforward.

Floralnomad · 12/06/2023 01:29

01:03 .

JoyDivisionOvenGlovesx · 12/06/2023 05:46

42s. Quite easy I thought. Bit too easy?
