I was just going through some of the older pages in this thread, and noticed that Edwardipov, aka Andy, is in hospital receiving chemo at the moment, so best of luck to him.

Sorry, if this is poorly placed alongside the well wishes for Andy, but could I reinterate my stance against using any type of webpage/software/javascript/anything else to help solve the words and/or letters games.

I think it would be the height of silliness (damned moderation) for anybody to cheat in this game, as it is strictly for fun, and kudos will be given out in equal measures to all contestants, not just winners.

So, if you have found a website that solves for you, please don't use it anymore.

Thanks,

D

I wasn't sure either, but checked dictionary.com, and was pleased to see it there - a strategy I highly recommend....🙂

Good luck to Andy - wouldn't wish it on anyone.

And goodluck to anyone with 552 - 553 is the best I can do

* alcra glares at Freddy. 553 is as close as he can get so far, but he will not give in till he gets 552. Mutters something about young whipper snappers, and carries on calculating...

*Starrman rues the lack of fractions in this game and crosses out 552.666 recurring before submitting 553*

Yeah I can't bloody get 552 either.
But if it is doable I am going to keep trying.
