| Welcome back, Wizard, you must have been practicing while you were gone. A so-so 1:40 for me today, I had myself convinced the four letter word I was looking for was something different from what it actually was. Not good in a timed game. |

| Welcome back Wizard, your absence doesn't seem to have hurt your score. I
was way off my game today and took 2:24 to finish--I know, an eternity... Bev, I don't see an option for changing to a harder Sudoku either. There is a daily Sudoku at Brainbashers--another site I enjoy. You can choose the level of difficulty there. http://www.brainbashers.com/killersudoku.asp |

| It's lovely to have the best score once in a while. Today's puzzle was a repeat, but fighting with my touchpad cost me some time, so it took 1:40. I don't know why, but at times when I drag, nothing happens until I release. Or I have to tap the last letter a couple of times to get it highlighted. So annoying. |
|

| Much better today at 1:15, which means the Wizard will probably break the minute mark. Again. Sigh. |

13 May 2010, 03:39
|
| That's how I feel too, Wizard, sometimes I'm surprised at what I know, other times I wonder why I even had to think about a clue, like today with the clock tower. So, really, I can't be proud of my 2:01 for a relatively easy puzzle. |

| OK, that was hard. 10:48. But that was my first time. I will say although it was stressful the music playing is the same music they play when I get a massage so it is oddly relaxing. |

|
| Well, 1:48 puts me under the two minute mark, but isn't anything to brag about, unlike the Wizard and Carol with their awesome .44. I can't believe I momentarily drew a blank at remembering the first name of a famous duo... I'll let you guess at which duo it was. |

| Guys, I hate to tell you, but I just broke the 0:42 mark with a 0:39!! It's ridiculous. I'm not sure how it happened:) |

24 Feb 2010, 04:27

| I improved to 1:09, so that's good, but the Wizard's record of 42 seconds is out there, taunting me. I suspect that record will stand for a good while but will serve to inspire us. |

| Hey Word Maven, it's definitely for the fun of it. But I just can't help myself with a 0:54 today! |

Word Maven
28 Jan 2010, 04:35
|
| Wizard, I've had a moment or two like that myself... Today was better, but my score of 2:28 tells you how bad yesterday's score was. Oh well, I guess I'm in this for the fun of it, not for the glory of being #1. Although I will keep trying. |
|
Word Wizard
27 Jan 2010, 09:30

| I had a 1:40 today also Word Maven! |

Word Maven

|
| I feel a little better about 1:40 today, although that still isn't great.
I've had some moments of confusion about words myself, Word Wizard. And
today I desperately tried to make chichilet a word. Well done, Kathy--you're an inspiration. |

Word Wizard
17 Nov 2009, 13:36
|
| Word Maven I did my best to come in last but alas a 1:41. I was completely confused by what an eltrut was until I saw the reptile category and realized it was turtle. |

|
| 1:27 today. I dare not brag it up because I always bomb the next day. |
|
Word Maven
17 Nov 2009, 04:04
|
| An even 2:00 today, which means I will probably be left behind in the dust. Oh well, somebody has to be in last place. |
|
Word Wizard
16 Nov 2009, 09:50
|
| Wow! It was over before it even started. 1:06! The first time I looked over at the clues I only had two words left to find. Good start for the weel:) |
|
Kathy
16 Nov 2009, 08:35
|
| 1:20 on Monday morning! I'm okay with that. |
|
Word Maven
14 Nov 2009, 04:03
|
| Sigh, 3:33 today. But on the other hand, having trouble coming up with the last Friends star surely means my head is filled with more useful information. |
|
Kathy
13 Nov 2009, 10:00
|
| 1:46 for me. Guess I got those cobwebs cleared out. |
|
Word Wizard
13 Nov 2009, 09:19
|
| Word Maven you're being to hard on yourself. 2:13 is a perfectly fine score. Of course I'm only saying that because I got a 2:19:) |
|
Word Maven
13 Nov 2009, 05:07
|
| 2:13 today, and these were easy categories. I do not like the direction that this is going. I'm sorely tempted to try the strategy of trying a second time. ;) |

| Very nice. On weak hotel coffee to boot:) I finished with 2:26. Asia was eluding me. |

| Did pretty well. 2:06. Word Maven have a nice long weekend. Hope you can survive without a Word Roundup Challenge:) Karen I suggest you have a glass of wine:) |
|
Kathy
05 Nov 2009, 08:07
|
| I had to stop it at 3:30. Just couldn't find the fine wine factor; had grapes stuck on my brain which hurt me. |
|
Word Maven
05 Nov 2009, 02:43

| I thought I had buzzed right along, but it took 2:29 so I guess not. Oh well. I'm off on a long weekend with limited if any internet--hope I survive, haha. TTFN |

|
| Man, you guys are good! 1:00 for me! I think I could have done even better had I looked at the clues and saw lodging options earlier. I was on hotel and motel but didn't see them until I read the clue and looked. |
|
Kathy
02 Nov 2009, 08:34
|
| 53 seconds!!! I did it! I've always been happy with anything under two minutes but my goal has been to get under a minute. Funny how a little puzzle can turn my mood around! |
|

02 Nov 2009, 04:51
|
| 1:11! And I lost a second or two or three to bad scrolling. Lovely start to the week. |

| I knew I spoke to soon yesterday...can't even admit how long that took me. Stuck on a joint also. |

| I can't believe I had that much trouble coming up with the last joint. 3:38 |

| You're not going to believe this one...1:02! Never even looked at the clues. I'm playing the lottery tonight:) |
|
Kathy
30 Oct 2009, 09:21
|
| 1:37 to finish out the week! I think I'm finally getting the hang of this. |

| Wow! 1:13 is great. My 1:56 this morning not so great, but under my two minute goal so it'll do. |
|

29 Oct 2009, 10:42
|
| Wow! 1:13 is fantastic! You got too much sleep:) I ended up with a 2:02 which isn't too shabby. |

|

| I only found the last word for money by chance so 2:27 is fine with me. It could have been much worse. |

| 3:03 today. That was a tough one. Had trouble finding pink and rugby. Two things that don't normally go together:) |

| 3:26 today. Took much too long for me to find Paul Newman. Couldn't play yesterday. Too much work and a Dr. appt. |

|
| For some reason I couldn't get the puzzle to load yesterday so I missed out. 1:54 for today. |
|
Word Wizard
26 Oct 2009, 13:44
|
| A 1:21?! Excellent! But before I give up my title of Word Wizard, believe it or not I got a 1:13. I have to admit I did look at the clues once toward the very end:) |
|
Kathy
26 Oct 2009, 07:58
|
| 1:21 on a Monday morning! Didn't even look at the clues. |
|

23 Oct 2009, 09:12

| Wow it was all clicking this morning. 1:40!! I didn't even look at the questions until the last three words. It was a good puzzle day! Have a great weekend guys! |

| WooHoo, 2:12 today! Not bad for a achy, rainy morning. |
|
Word Maven
23 Oct 2009, 04:12
|
| I "stumbled and fell" this morning, 3:12. My touchpad is partly to blame for being uncooperative, but the bigger problem was me looking for the wrong word. Good luck you two. |

| Not too bad today. 2:35. I didn't look at the clues for quite a while and that may have hurt me:) |

| Well done! The poker hands were a problem for me and stopped me in my tracks. Today was only o.k. at 3:19, birds, grr. |

| Zero gave me trouble as well. I don't know how long I was looking straight at it and not seeing it. Today I got stuck when trying to come up with a second organ. I had several in mind, but it wasn't either of them... 2:45 anyway. |
|
Kathy
16 Oct 2009, 14:30
|
| 3:11 for me. I should have read your comment before doing the puzzle cause I was stuck on zero too! |
|

16 Oct 2009, 10:16

| Hi Kathy--Glad to know there are others having Word Round Up fun out there:) 2:49 for me today. Kind of a tough one. I don't often think of zero as a number for some reason:) Good luck! |

| Wow! 1:15. Impressive. The pressure was on and I couldn't pull it out. 2:36 for me. Isthmus!! We can't be the only two people out there doing this puzzle. Can anyone beat a 1:15 today?! |

| 2:05 today. This has been a long good score streak, any day now I'll come up with a 5 or 6 minute solution time. Signs of the Zodiac is an example of a category that is almost always my undoing. |

|
| I hate to admit this because it may help you, but I don't even read what I'm looking for until I don't see anything obvious. I start with the top left corner, and there is always a diagonal word. Then I just look for words--it helps to be a speed reader. When nothing jumps out at me I look to see what I'm looking for. Usually I already have a good idea because of what I've found. |

30 Sep 2009, 10:36
|
| A 2:40 today. Man, one of those units of measure was tough. I've never used that word:) And the four flowers really turned out to be four bodies of water. That threw me a little. I may try that other puzzle but only after I do this one on Arthritis Today's site. |

| Hey Word Maven, Sorry I missed Friday's puzzle but your 1:18 time is very impressive. You are giving me a run for my money so I had to pick it up a notch and I did today's puzzle in 1:25. How'd you do? |
