Did anyone else notice the similarity between yesterday's
palpating Standard game and the
placating Challenge game from a couple of days ago?
The two games had no fewer than 8 common letters and, what's more, the same key-letter - N.
The upshot was that by looking at the solution to the earlier game, you could have found 32 of the 35 words needed for a rosette in yesterday's game!
Only three words (
tapping,
lapping and the 9-letter seed-word word
palpating) would then need to be found.
Nobody would do that, of course. That would have been cheating, wouldn't it?
