⏱️ I just completed PlusWord in 07:48 www.telegraph.co.uk/plusword/

Thought I was back in business when I got 1A & 2D, 3D & 4D straightaway & then the flower was obvious with the letters.
Struggled with 1D & 5D for a long time though & pw was just rearranging letters & a return to the @DadDadDad vowel rule.
Still too hard though!!!

Not as tough as yesterday, but still some challenges. Did it in 4:04.

Only after completing did the penny drop on the meaning of 7A.

Like @Drywhitefruitycidergin I thought I was on for a quick time but was then hit by the (new normal?) reality

Readytostartagain · 17/11/2022 08:11

⏱️ I just completed PlusWord in 03:16 A bit of guessing but PW was straightforward at least

UmbilicusProfundus · 17/11/2022 08:54

BTW I quite like it being more of a challenge - a challenge to complete rather than just race through an easy one to get the quickest time. But the clues have to be fair/accurate , even if a bit obscure or verging on cryptic.

Still baffled by the meaning of 7A!

BrilliantGreenFlamingo · 17/11/2022 10:03

7:18. Don’t get 7A at all. And I wasn’t sure the PW was a word but apparently it is! Don’t know what it means tho.

DadDadDad · 17/11/2022 10:03

@restisall - if you type "bye" plus the answer into Google into should bring up the meaning that you might not have thought of.

BrilliantGreenFlamingo · 17/11/2022 10:13

Well I defo would not have guessed that. I didn’t know it meant that too.

Should have been at least 30 seconds faster, but I somehow forgot how the yellow letters work, so convinced myself that the 2 yellow letters in 2D had to be the same letter. That was an interesting diversion 😂

Knew the PW though.

I got the same message @Sunbird24

Sunbird24 · 17/11/2022 16:17

@Swissnotswiss they don’t want us doing their puzzle… 🤷🏻‍♀️

BrilliantGreenFlamingo · 17/11/2022 16:26

What’s that mean?!

BrilliantGreenFlamingo · 17/11/2022 16:26

I’ve got it too now I’ve refreshed the page

Drywhitefruitycidergin · 17/11/2022 17:05

I've got it too but it works on secret mode 🤷‍♀️

Sunbird24 · 17/11/2022 17:14

⏱️ I just completed PlusWord in 01:31

Ugh, had to go and do it in private mode - thanks for suggesting that @Drywhitefruitycidergin!

hoochyhag · 17/11/2022 17:38

Oh no! Another addictive wordgame 🤪

hoochyhag · 17/11/2022 17:40

Only took me 18m and 34 seconds 😂

oviraptor21 · 17/11/2022 18:15

Seems I do OK relatively speaking although had no clue for 5d.

  • I did 🙄
sanityisamyth · 17/11/2022 18:59

I can't get into it today. I get the same as the screenshot. Refreshing doesn't help!

Sunbird24 · 17/11/2022 19:10

@sanityisamyth do you have a secret/private browsing mode? That’s the only way I got to it

Usernamenotavailabletryanother · 17/11/2022 21:28

I can’t get on even on private mode 😞 it asks me if I want a free trial… so I’m guessing we have to subscribe to play it now?
