Every week, on Tuesday morning, a grid of nine letters in a diamond shape is posted

[for illustration purposes only - this is NOT a Word Hunt Diamond Game]
The aim of the game is to find the target number of words [as in the source used for the game] using only the letters in the grid - including one 9-letter word and all words must be four letters or more and must
include the red-letter.
Next Tuesday - 08 March 2022 - is the 100th Word Hunt Diamond Game.
The Word Hunt Diamond [WHD] was "born" on 27 August 2019 and has become one of the most popular games on the O2 Community.
Each game attracts over 100 views and now has a regular band of wordsmiths - the Diamond Dogs Of Words - as named by pgn - who take part each week or as often as they can.
To celebrate the 100th WHD, there will be a special edition next Tuesday which might well be a challenge.
I hope all our usual wordsmiths, plus those who have taken part in past WHD games
- including @Cleoriff @pgn @gmarkj @Bambino @TallTrees @J9el @BobM @Projectionist @lewys-gp
and any member who has never taken part, or new members will come and join in the fun.
WHD Fun Facts...
Since WHD began, the players have found...
- over 6000 words in the target lists of words in total in the 99 WHD games so far
- over 2000 words not in the list but in dictionaries - so allowed - in total in the 99 WHD games so far
completed the fastest WHD game in just over one hour.
So please
write WHD 100th Game Tuesday 08 March 2022 in your diary; put an alert on your phone; stick a note on you fridge; carve a message on your desk at work [No, better not do that one 😂 ]
I look forward to welcoming every one next Tuesday to the 100th WHD.
A huge thank you to everyone who has helped make WHD the success it has been and I promise that WHD will continue for as long as members of the O2 Community want it.
