    Same but I have something for D1 and the beginnings of something for C1 (I think).

    Working on b2, d1,d2. Bonus came right away.

    Rox, it did? I was going to put in a warning that the bonus is a toughie.

    Jasdip, the fun never ends. Maybe I’m wrong but I like my answer.

    Some just hit you as soon as you see them. That was one of them.

    Need B1 (but in the meantime it’s making me giggle), C1 (I think I have something but i need to refine it), C2, D2, and of course the bonus.

  • lettersatoz

    Got D1 and D3....now just B1, C2 and bonus. Busy rest of the day today - hope to come back to it before morning.

    I got the bonus right away as well. I am missing several others but have not had my coffee yet.

  • bpath

    I MIGHT have the bonus. Something jumped out at me right away, but I thought ”naaah, that can’t be it”, but maybe it is.

  • foodonastump

    I have something to work with on C1 and D1, just need to convince myself. D2 and bonus have me stumped.

    Still working on b2 and d1. Finally got d2.


  • User

    I’m thinking about something for b2 but the shape needs to be slightly different, so I’ll see what else comes to mind.🤔

    Just got D3.

    B1, C1, and the bonus. The rest came easy. C1 seems like it should roll out easily, so I’m working on it.

    New day, fresh eyes. I think I’ve got them all except perhaps the bonus. I have an answer that I’m not 100% convinced of as I’d have drawn it differently.

  • foodonastump

    roxol - I wouldn’t overthink the shape of B2. Remember how funky pi has been.

    FOAS, that’s what I thought about B2. As you’ve said, give some wiggle room with these puzzles😀

    I think I’ve got them all, too.

    To me, the bonus is drawn perfectly. It will be interesting to see the solution.

  • lettersatoz

    AHHHH -- I just got the bonus! I was coming here to say that I didn't think I'd ever get it when it suddenly hit me. This is never-ending fun! And with that, I think I have them all - yay!

    SPOILER ALERT (maybe)

    lettersatoz, I believe we have the same answer but humour me with this; my father loved making up punny definitions for words and I know he would have liked this one.

    What is the definition of (bonus)?

    A wimple. 😂

    I JUST got the REAL answer to the bonus! The rocking of the train must have jiggled the brain cells into action.

    I really enjoy the tough ones because I can keep on working on them.

    So it wasn’t a milk run, bpath?

    I guess I have to keep working on the bonus as my answer doesn’t follow ^^^

  • lettersatoz
    2 years ago

    Nope rox, sorry, not following that….🤔

  • lettersatoz
    2 years ago

    (There was a hint in my last post, though, for those reading between the lines)

    That’s okay, lettersatoz. 😀 I get distracted easily with my own silly, endless games. They’re never-ending..

  • foodonastump

    Letters, clearly we’re on the same page but the above hints have me questoning if we’re right.

    FOAS, I think you and letters are right. I know letters and I are on the same page.

    My Internet was off most of the day yesterday (talk about withdrawal symptoms!), so I'm just now getting around to this. Think I have them all but the bonus, not even a 'maybe' for than one yet! Think my brain is still recuperating from the trauma.

    Not a milk run, but we did go past a dairy. And a chocolate factory. I should love to live next to it, smelling chocolate constantly, with every whiff. I hear it runs 24 hours a day! (I made that last part up.)

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    Okay, need hints for C2 and D2. Anyone?

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    Okay, just C2. I changed my element words for D2 and it suddenly hit me.

  • User
    2 years ago

    Eek, I hope you’re okay, bpath.

  • User
    2 years ago

    C2, I’ll try to help but I wouldn’t gamble too heavily that my answer is correct.

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    Roxsol, I was pretty far, so yes, I’m okay.

    I think DS got C2 in a flash. I should reward him, but not too much.

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    B1? anyone? trying to figure it out is making me go b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b

  • foodonastump
    2 years ago

    Think of those b’s being BaseBalls… hit low and hard. Maybe to second.

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    Ah! Got it! Thanks foas!

  • carolb_w_fl_coastal_9b

    I think I have 'em all but C1.

    SPOILER....Scroll on by if you must.




    Crossfire

    Too good to be true

    A day late and a dollar short


    Beeline

    Division of labour

    Hidden treasure


    A change of plans

    Break the bank

    Go for it!


    Shifting gears

    Point blank range

    Spreadsheet



    And.... Nonstop. Did you get it?

  • bpath
    2 years ago

    I had all kinds of similar answers for ”change of plans” and I think they all work, so tons of points for me there. And I had ”broadsheet” instead of ”spreadsheet” which DS got. I’m an editor, he’s a data guy, so points for both is us lol.

    I DID get the bonus!

  • User

    Yes, the fun never ends!

    My punny definition for my dear old dad was ”nuns top” (nonstop)= wimple. 🙄

    Okay, you had to know my dad, he loved puns.

    Thanks, Jasdip 🤠

  • foodonastump

    Oh my. I thought all the hints for bonus were non sequiturs. “nons equator”, it was cut off at the equator. I wasn’t thrilled with my answer but the hints gave me false confidence.


    I also had ”no good plan.” 😢

  • blfenton

    I didn't get the bonus and for C1 I guess I went a little overboard and had Best laid plans go astray.

  • User

    FOAS, for what it’s worth, I think non sequitur is pretty clever.

    Points for creativity!🤓

  • Rusty

    I actually got them all right! Even though D2 did take some thinking to get it worked out. And, believe it or not, 'non stop' jumped out at me almost immediately when I first looked at the bonus. But I thought no, that was wa-a-a-ay too easy, too simple. After all, Jasdip did say it was a toughie. So I completely ignored it. And wracked my brain for an answer. The only other thing I could come up with was 'non sequitur', but I couldn't make that make sense, either, so I gave up and didn't have an answer for it. Maybe I need to stop listening to my brain on these things!

    Got them all!!! And the bonus was the last to come to me….I looked at it several times drawing a complete blank, then all of a sudden….bam!

    I did not get the bonus. SMH!

    I'm going to stop saying whether I think the hints are difficult. I should know that difficult to me, isn't necessarily difficult for you :-) You guys are pros at these puzzles. I'm sure glad I'm finding them for you to work on.

  • Rusty

    Jasdip, we're glad you are finding them for us, too! And don't stop your comments because of what I said, please. I often take things much too literally.

    I got all but C1, but now I think I may have guessed it at first and then forgot what I guessed...😜

  • foodonastump

    I’m quite annoyed I didn’t get the bonus!
