[Game] Word Hunt Diamond - Game 5

[Mi-Amigo]

Hi Word Finders and welcome to the fifth Word Hunt Diamond.

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:

                                                                          N

                                                                      A      E

                                                                   I      O     J          

                                                                      C      T

                                                                          B

This week`s target is 58 words using only the letters in the diamond.

Each word must contain four letters or more and must include the red letter O.

No proper names are allowed.

Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [for example, TOTE wouldn`t be allowed].

Of course, words do not have to start with the red letter O

Only one word per post.

Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again.

There is one nine-letter word using all the letters in the grid. 

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

Last week, nine players - @Cleoriff ; @EmilieT ; @gmarkj ; @pgn ; @jonsie ; @Bambino ; @AnnieM ; @Marjo ; @BobM 

found all 67 target words, and eight of them found an additional 26 words not in the list in the source used in compiling the game.

This game is open to all members.

New members, and those who have not played before, are welcome to join the "regulars" in this week`s Word Hunt Diamond [game 5].

Can you, the members, bust this week`s Word Hunt Diamond and also find additional words?

Good luck everyone

Ohh... I didn't read your post properly @Cleoriff . You just meant to have another go at one, didn't you!    It's not easy for me to get on here during the day so I'm being a bit over-keen tonight - sorry!

Not a problem @AnnieM It just made me laugh and I needed that tonight

Thanks @Mi-Amigo  for another great Word Diamond. I do love these.

On that note, I'm off to bed. Goodnight all xx

Goodnight D

Thank you @Cleoriff ; @Marjo ; @gmarkj ; @Bambino ; @AnnieM ; @BobM ; and @jonsie between you, you found all 58 words in the list in the source I use for the game.

In addition, @AnnieM ; @jonsie ; @BobM ; @Cleoriff ; between them found 13 words not in the list.

I hope that all of those who played enjoyed this game and will play along with the next one, which will not start until next Tuesday.

I have researched a couple of game and can offer

either one with a target of 73 words [with no S] and some obscure words

or one with a target of 67 words, which has an S and the target inc plurals, and some obscure words.

There is plenty of time, so please post which game you would prefer next time.

Goodnight @Cleoriff 

I`m off to my pit - err bed  Nite all. Its been fun.    

[Cleoriff]

Re the next one @Mi-Amigo 

I will go with the majority. However, I do think those with an S are easier as you can add to make it plural. Not sure that stretches your brain as much?

@Cleoriff 

Thank you for the comments on the next game.

Good point. I think that the one with an S is easier; and the one with a 73 word target is harder - with an almost equal number of four-, five-, and six- letter words, as well as the usual nine-letter, so it might be more of a challenge to find all of them in the list. 

But, as the games are for the members, and I just set them up and run them, I`ll leave the decision to the majority.

[Marjo]

Thanks for another fun word game! I didn't have a lot of time in the end, but happy I found a couple of words in the beginning.

The game with the 'S' for next time sounds good to me too @Mi-Amigo .  

[jonsie]

As the game is over in a day then let's try the harder one. We can then make an informed choice for the next format. 

Thanks @Mi-Amigo for the last one and the constant updates 

[Cleoriff]

Yes, I think go for the harder one. As I said earlier, the one with S is easier to just add plurals. Not much brain work in that...
