[Misc] Does anyone else play Blossom?

[Papak]

Just had another (3rd?) try at this.

Spoiler: Incorrect words

errored and tarted

I was surprised as these seem fairly well used in everyday language.

205 first time. Needs a time limit or you could just sit there thinking for hours. Nice little game though. Thanks for the heads up

I think no time limit is quite nice. You can go and do the washing up or some other necessary boring chore with the letters in you head knowing you've got all day.

That's brilliant!

320 for me today. Still above my average though.

 

[Bakero]

391, smashing my previous best.

 

[Jack Straw]

I started too quickly. Broke my own rules by not having a good look and doing lots of shuffling. Still my second highest score though.

Was yesterday (Thursday 3rd) very hard?
Something like S P L I T Y A

Mrs CBH struggled to get over 200 (got to 200 after redoing).

Any tips?

I only got 187. I thought it was very difficult.

I looked at that one and decided to give it a miss because I didn't want to ruin my average, might try later as you've given a benchmark.

 

[Jack Straw]

I didn't find this particularly easy. No pangrams.

Having looked at all the possible words, as always, disappointed that I didn't score loads more.

366 was my score today, I was a bit disappointed with that because I didn't really hit my straps until about go 6. Definitely points up for grabs today.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

381 today.
realised I'd missed a few after go 8.

 

[jevs]

My worst one today for many days despite having 2 pandemics
