Does anyone want a Blossom thread? Not sure if I'll keep doing it but saw this recommended on another thread and I find it more fun than NYT Spelling Bee. (Which you can't get far on for free anyway).

Some of the words in the list I would never have gotten even if you told me then. Never heard of them.

Found that tricky but it is Friday the 13th 😐

BarnacleBeasley · 13/12/2024 12:19

I gave up on the last Y as I couldn't think of any with more than 6 letters.

It is actually rated "hard" today - has been "mild" all the times I've noticed/looked before. It says this is based on users getting lower average scores. Some of you above are in the top 16% who got 300+.

300+ scores don't seem possible for me. Must read more 🤔

Does it annoy anyone else that some words, such as retarded are deemed unusable?
Or am I being unreasonable/out of touch with acceptable vocabulary?

I rushed today's because I wasn't sure what time the puzzle renews.

It's tricky @BinkyBeaufort because I can see why RETARDED might not be allowed but can't see why RETARD was allowable. I'd have expected both to be treated the same.
