Nonsense solutions

[Calilasseia]

Has anyone else found themselves, in the desperate struggle to discover the 9 or 10 letter seed word, generating one or more nonsense combinations of letters that look as if they could possibly form a bona fide word? I've just had several such instances in the 2024/06/12 Challenge puzzle before finding the actual solution.

Remind me to post examples once the expiry time arrives.

Yep, sometimes you kind of convince yourself that it’s a word! And I’m hopeless at sayings/proverbs, I’m always mixing them up. For years I thought the saying “Busier than a cat burying shit” was “Busier than a cat bearing shit”, which as my husband often points out is ridiculous. Does the cat have a silver tray with its shit proudly displayed??

Has this puzzle expired for everyone now? Only it's listed as expired for my time zone ...
