Hi Word Hunters and welcome to the Word Hunt Diamond.
As this is the 15th game and the last one in 2019, it is an "end of the year challenge"
The game is open to all members.
Each week, a grid of nine letters in a diamond will be posted with a target number of words to find using only the letters in the grid.
This week`s "diamond" is as follows:
T
E C
P G R
N I
A
This week`s target is 90 words - using only the letters in the diamond - and includes one 9-letter word and six 8-letter words to find.
Each word must contain four letters or more and must include the red letter G.
No proper names are allowed.
Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [for example, GANG wouldn`t be allowed].
Of course, words do not have to start with the red letter G
Only one word per post.
Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again.
There is no time limit on this game and will be open [if not solved by then] tomorrow [New Year`s Eve] and Wednesday [New Year`s Day].
Regular updates will be given on each page [so as to avoid scrolling back] of the words found and the number of words still to be found.
This game is open to all members. New members, and those who have not played before, are welcome to join in with previous and regular players.
The Challenge:
Can you, between you, crack this week`s Word Hunt Diamond -
Find the 90 words in the list [in the source used for the game]- the biggest target in a game so far?
Find 108 words, in total, and break the record for the total number of words found in a game?
Find 30 words not in the list, and break the record of 29 extra words found in a game?
Good luck everyone
