Indeed!

Watch for a new Eagle-Eye Token soon to appear on your profile page.

Should read SPORTING EVENT as 2 words, opposed to a single word…

➡️😃LOL😄⬅️ The secret's out!

Tell the truth. You introduced this new collection just to lower the number of complaints on this board, right? Well played

➡😃LOL😄⬅

So the wrong word is actually the right word? Oh boy!

#14709295

You are correct, and you were needed as an editor for the publication that printed this.

However, it is from the Funny Headlines and Classifieds collection and in this list all bets are off. That was actually published somewhere.

The solved puzzle is SLAIN MAN SEEN RUNNNG AHEAD OF DEATH-DEALING AUTO. It should be running, with an i. I just saw your post. I hope things are going better for you now!

So happy you SHOOK IT OFF, because WE NEED YOU MARC...

Thanks!

Thank you. Your great!!

Take care my birthday buddy

Thank you both! It is appreciated...

I agree,no apologies necessary,just feel better soon!

We love you Marc and all you do! Get better soon 🤗

I am following the board, but have been going through a period of lethargy and mild depression so it took a nudge from z71cat to get me going on this... (Thanks!)

Sorry,

The correct spelling is Complimentary The phrase is "Complimentary Upgrade" and refers to the gifting of an upgrade.

- - -

Complementary refers to something that completes or goes well with another, bringing mutual benefits or creating a harmonious whole.

Complimentary, on the other hand, pertains to the act of giving praise or free items, such as in "She received complimentary remarks about her work" or "Guests enjoyed a complimentary breakfast."

My research only shows PRAIRIE as a proper spelling...

Got it and found a cuppla others as well!

Thanks!

Wow! That's a weird on that got by me!

Watch for a new Eagle-Eye Token soon to appear on your profile page.

In game #14840920 in Kickback Thematic Hangman, the spelling is Beirut, Lebanon not Bayrut, Lebanon.

Not even the Wiktionary, and they'll take almost anything, making sense or not.

I think you're right, doesn't seem a very common usuage

Do you have a source? I'm only finding it as "prairie".

Can be confusing

I believe both spellings are acceptable

Game #14831573
Word: BANANA SPLITPERSONALITY
Should be: BANANA SPLIT-PERSONALITY

Bizarre!

#14827207

Should be "prairie".

PRARIE AND CHILI DOG

#14827262 - prairie is the correct spelling

LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRARIE DOG

Just my opinion, Marc will decide. You answered yourself:
An upgrade (an enhancement, yes, but can also be a correction of faulty behaviour) could be both:
Complementary: as you say, completes or enhances
But also Complimentary, in the sense of free of charge.

#14824048 Should of been a E not a I
a Upgade would be a enhancement. ((???))
distinguish between complementary and complimentary, two commonly confused words with different meanings. Complementary means something that completes or enhances another, while complimentary means praise or free items.

#14775949

Unfortunately I can't do anything about the point. That is a bug report item.

As to the spelling, both are correct.

Done! Thank you!

I take that back. Till is a perfectly acceptable synonym for until. I suppose it's case of personal preference.

Been there done that! 😂

I agree with marcmandy but think GT should strive to use the most grammatically correct version of words, where possible.i.e. 'til in this case, or even better "until".

I thought I had, but just checked again, and looks like I forgot the H in "the". I do apologise. I am usually more thorough, must be old age creeping in. Note to self: check and double check before posting.

Did you double check your answer that you didn't miss a letter?

In game #14734098 I guessed all the remaining letters from the phrase "The X-Files returns to television" yet my opponent got the point. How so?

#14800301 - Anything Goes list

Please separate QUIRKYCHARACTERS.

Game # 14775949

It was put in as Cumquat but the correct spelling is Kumquat.
I guessed it right but didn’t get the point. Please fix when possible. Thanks.

{ game#14799836}the answer should be lint roller derby, not lint roller debry!

Thanks for the info

pharos refers the the lighthouse of Alexandria, not the monarch. Your hangman is looking for "Places All over the World".

Advantage to the French speaker, in French a lighthouse is "phare".

Shouldn't "pharos of egypt, alexandria, egypt" be "pharaohs" game #14775775

Sorry for the long delay. Life has been, well, Life and I've been distracted. Such is Life...

Should be - Attending a private event. Yup!

Should be Prairie and chili dog (not prarie) Yup!

I think poppy seed should be poppyseed ? Yup!

HUMENTASHEN should be HAMENTASHEN Yup!

And, for the record, Smooshed or Smushed is indeed US slang, but quite descriptive ➡️😃LOL😄⬅️

Got it! Thanks!

I'm having it removed. It should be co-writer which doesn't fit itn tne one -word parameter of Hangman

It ain't over till the fat lady sings can be considered a bit of slang. Technically it should be 'til as in until, but usage has it as both.

#14707460

Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary (1981) has:

till - prep 1: TO 2: UNTIL

till - conj UNTIL

till - vt to work b y plowing, sowing, and raising crops

till - n 1 a: a box, drawer, or tray in a receptacle (as a cabinet or chest) used esp. for valuables
b: a money drawer in a store or bank
2 a: the money in a till
b: a supply of esp. ready money

till - n unstratified glacial drift consisting of clay, sand, gravel, and boulders intermingled

https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/should-you-use-until-or-till-or-til

Otoh is dictionary.com an acceptable dictionary? I'd prefer to stick to established dictionaries.

According to Dictionary.com, "till" is acceptable.............

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/Till

In #14761608,
"IT AIN'T OVER TILL THE FAT LADY SINGS"

Shouldn't that be: 'TIL THE FAT LADY SINGS ?

Till is a cash register or cash drawer.
'til is the proper short form of Until.

I would hyphenate it co-writer, but dictionary says it's fine https://www.dictionary.com/browse/cowriter

#14751479: COWRITER. It's fairly clear what it means, but really, a word?
If you google it you're directed to several AI's which do exactly what you think they do. But having sites that carry the word doesn't make it an English word.
Note: This post was not written by an AI, lol.
