I guess it has no hyphen here in the US, but does have one in the UK.

yeah starting to get annoyed with sam again. ALCHEMICAL is most certainly a word.(putting in spoilers tags because even though it’s not accepted it contains a valid word that is)
― scanner darkly, Sunday, 17 April 2022 17:03 (four years ago)
ha, just came here to complain about that word too
― Roz, Sunday, 17 April 2022 17:10 (four years ago)
Sam being Sam again and not accepting a word he used to (in this case OCOTILLO).

I never heard of a boodle, and it still irks me that bole is not acceptable.
― trishyb, Wednesday, 20 April 2022 15:31 (four years ago)
Re today’s words: so glad I remembered UNTUNEFUL from the other day.
― Wile E. Kinbote (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 21 April 2022 13:17 (four years ago)
Yeah that one is out there but at least comprehensible. there is utterly no way I would have gotten venule without hints and guessing
― Fifty Centaur (Ye Mad Puffin), Thursday, 21 April 2022 19:24 (four years ago)
Me neither. Sometimes when there are this many words it gets to the point where even after I have given up on my own steam (hopefully after getting pangrams and genius) and looking at all the clues I still can't tell which words I missed.
― Wile E. Kinbote (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 21 April 2022 19:49 (four years ago)
Also, really wanted LENTEN, I assume he left out because usually capitalized.
― Wile E. Kinbote (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 21 April 2022 19:51 (four years ago)
Again with the formerly-accepted-but-not-today: TELNET.
― Born Sleeepy (Nuxx) (Leee), Thursday, 21 April 2022 20:52 (four years ago)
DIdn't even try.
― Wile E. Kinbote (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 21 April 2022 20:53 (four years ago)
Feel like there was a good (rejected) screenname based on that one once.
― Wile E. Kinbote (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 21 April 2022 20:56 (four years ago)
Surpised I didnt tihnk to try that one Leee, given my profession haha.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 22 April 2022 02:54 (four years ago)
Guess LEXEME is still too technical
― Eric B. Is Hesitant (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 11:30 (four years ago)
british spelling not being accepted is especially annoying today
― scanner darkly, Monday, 2 May 2022 13:59 (four years ago)
lol just came here to post “they’re really trolling the brits/aussies today”
― donna rouge, Monday, 2 May 2022 14:08 (four years ago)
.. and canadians
― scanner darkly, Monday, 2 May 2022 14:29 (four years ago)
ha yes them too, sorry canadiansmanaged to get to QB w/hints
― donna rouge, Monday, 2 May 2022 15:51 (four years ago)
I think I've come up to three or four short but have never achieved QB without hints. there are always four-letter words that I forget, so I try to do those first
― Dan S, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 01:12 (four years ago)
QB was easy today, I tried the AU/UK -our spellings just in case. He seems to use alt spellings sometimes but not always? I guess it'd get too messy.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 3 May 2022 01:36 (four years ago)
the alternate spellings are not usually a problem
but even trying to conjure compound words like falloff, nobleman/noblewoman, bellmen I often miss them
― Dan S, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 01:54 (four years ago)
Some of the, um, fun is typing in still-foreign words and hoping they will be accepted like CEMITA.
― Johnny Thunderwords (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 7 May 2022 12:01 (four years ago)
Lol James, I think I tried MAMACITA at least twice today
― may the florist be with you (Ye Mad Puffin), Saturday, 7 May 2022 23:41 (four years ago)
I’m too sexy for my (no longer acceptable) CATAMITE.
― Johnny Thunderwords (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 7 May 2022 23:47 (four years ago)
Yeah I tried that too; meanwhile CRAP and CRAPPING were fine just a couple days ago
― may the florist be with you (Ye Mad Puffin), Saturday, 7 May 2022 23:52 (four years ago)
As seen here: Rewrite the openings to famous novels in the style of John Lanchester
― Johnny Thunderwords (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 7 May 2022 23:52 (four years ago)
I had another pair to gripe about but capitalization.
― Johnny Thunderwords (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 7 May 2022 23:53 (four years ago)
there were a lot of chemistry words today
tried both mamacita and catamite
missed words like climatic, lacteal, acetate
― Dan S, Sunday, 8 May 2022 00:22 (four years ago)
and titmice!
― Dan S, Sunday, 8 May 2022 00:23 (four years ago)
chemistry words and medical words
acetalaceticacetatecalcitemalic
celiaciliaclactic
― Dan S, Sunday, 8 May 2022 00:48 (four years ago)
didn't hide it all, sorry
but not ictal, which an often used medical term
― Dan S, Sunday, 8 May 2022 00:51 (four years ago)
Keep typing LAIRD to no avail.
― Johnny Thunderwords (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 8 May 2022 11:06 (four years ago)
Yeah that’s bullshit. Fuck catamite not counting as well!!
― gop on ya gingrich (wins), Sunday, 8 May 2022 17:32 (four years ago)
Inclusions are never bullshit ime, exclusions are often bullshit
― gop on ya gingrich (wins), Sunday, 8 May 2022 17:35 (four years ago)
Tomtit talks and bullshit walks.
― Don't Renege On (Our Dub) (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 8 May 2022 19:30 (four years ago)
Biggest bullshit today might be that none of the variant spellings of arrack are accepted
― gop on ya gingrich (wins), Monday, 9 May 2022 07:16 (four years ago)
That’s right folks, The CADDY.
― Don't Renege On (Our Dub) (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 9 May 2022 11:28 (four years ago)
Ok I know the whole gag is that definitions of obscure are like subjective but let’s be real there exists no sane rationale for iodine but not iodide. It’s stoopid
― gop on ya gingrich (wins), Tuesday, 10 May 2022 23:03 (four years ago)
a lot of chemistry words again today! oxide, dioxide, diode, iodine, monoxide, neon, xenon
I got doxxed but didn't think of doxx or the alternate spelling of the past tense, doxed
― Dan S, Tuesday, 10 May 2022 23:22 (four years ago)
No HIPPING, no credibility.
― Don't Renege On (Our Dub) (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 11 May 2022 08:40 (four years ago)
QB no hints today!feel like CAPING should be a word?
― donna rouge, Wednesday, 11 May 2022 14:18 (four years ago)
Well done! May your reign last forever!
Agree on caping. I was genuinely surprised that there was no pipping allowed either.
― trishyb, Wednesday, 11 May 2022 14:44 (four years ago)
I absolutely smashed it yday, QB in no time & some v satisfying words like COLDCOCKEDAnother bit of editorial stupidity to complain about tho: DECKLE but not DECKLED? The latter form is the only one I ever encounter, ymmv but in any case why would you not have both
― gop on ya gingrich (wins), Saturday, 14 May 2022 13:02 (four years ago)
yes otmin orbit probably has thoughts on this
― Tracer Hand, Saturday, 14 May 2022 15:34 (four years ago)
Thought the same thing about DECKLED.
― Don't Renege On (Our Dub) (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 14 May 2022 15:37 (four years ago)
Having real trouble getting to genius today!
― Santa Barbarous (Leee), Monday, 16 May 2022 18:19 (four years ago)
I hit the wall a while back as well. Will need the hints tonight I guess
― Don't Renege On (Our Dub) (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 16 May 2022 18:30 (four years ago)
i got there but it felt like tacking against the wind
― Tracer Hand, Monday, 16 May 2022 20:17 (four years ago)
Just made it to Genius but now I want to collapse.
― Don't Renege On (Our Dub) (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 18 May 2022 01:08 (four years ago)
Okay, kind of annoyed FLAM is not accepted.
