Must be the last person playing. Finally remembered to play 50th, 100%. That's it, I think...

Played 71, got 71.
I nearly gave up as too easy now but a couple of more thoughtful days made me carry on. I must admit the 100 games seems like a good stopping point though :D

75 today with a streak of 69. Will carry on to 100 or when I fail. Struggled with today’s one a bit.

That's why I finally gave up the habit.

Oh, I missed yesterday's game (travelling).

I said I'd stop at 100 but just got 102. My usual starter word is proving it's worth :mrgreen: Perhaps I'll carry on until I get it in one!?

I'm not sure what you are missing. Thursday was an electronic device or a character in Greek literature. What's the issue?

Also a place in Alaska; I guess the devisive issue is whether it is considered a Proper Noun. Now that it's owned by NY Times, it probably referred to a US Football (sic) term.

Where has it ever said "no proper nouns"? Are you not confusing this with Scrabble?

The word in question can also refer to a racing pigeon or, in baseball, a hit that allows the batter to make a complete circuit of the bases.

ah, now I (not a Wordler) know what the word was. I reckon that for most usage by most Americans it would not be thought of as a Proper Noun, because of this sense.
