Word Hunt Diamond - Game 123

[Mi-Amigo]

Welcome to

The Word Hunt Diamond Game is posted on Off Topic every Tuesday and is open to all members.

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.

Today`s Word Hunt Diamond has the following grid.... 

                                                                                             R

                                                                                        K        I  

                                                                                    E       F       D  

                                                                                        C        B

                                                                                             A

This week`s target is a target of 45 words - using only letters in the diamond - inc TWO 9-letter words.

 RULES

No proper names are allowed.

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

Scottish words and American spellings are allowed.

Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word 

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

Each player may post up to two words per post.

Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again but if the game is running slow,

and no-one has posted for at least 10 mins, then a player may post again. 

PLEASE NOTE:

During the game, I will have to STOP the game periodically so I can give updates of words found.

Please be patient and wait. I hope this does not cause too much delay or disruption to the game. 

Towards the end of the game, as soon as the LAST WORD in the list is given, I will post an announcement - LAST WORD FOUND. PLEASE STOP THE GAME - and I will then post my reply to the words given up to the announcement, showing whether the word is in the list or is a word not in the list; after that, I will post the Congratulations - who found the last word; who found the nine-letter word; and who gave the most words not in the list up to when I posted the announcement LAST WORD FOUND, PLEASE STOP THE GAME.

I will be giving awards to players 

 - for finding each of the two nine-letter words

     - for finding the last word in the list in the source used for the game

- for finding the most words not in the list up to when announcement

              - LAST WORD FOUND, PLEASE STOP THE GAME [words after announcement will not count]

The Word Hunt Diamond game is open to all members.

I hope the Diamond Dogs of Words [thanks @pgn for the term] - those who have played in previous Word Hunt Diamond games - including

@Cleoriff  @pgn   @gmarkj   @BobM   @J9el   @RafaC   @TallTrees 

and any member who has not played before or has not played for a while; and any new member will join in and play today`s WHD.

Can you, between you, not only find the 45 words in the list [in the source used for this game], and the nine-letter word in this WHD game, but also find additional words not in the list ?

Good luck everyone and have fun...

CONGRATULATIONS 

@Cleoriff   - on finding the LAST WORD IN THE LIST

@Cleoriff  - on finding both NINE-LETTER WORDS IN THE LIST

@BobM     - on finding the MOST WORDS NOT IN THE LIST before notice to stop the game.

Thank you @Cleoriff  @pgn  @BobM @gmarkj 

Well done finding the 45 words in the list in the source used for this game and 16 words not in the list but in dictionaries so allowed before notice to stop the game when last word found = a total of 61 words posted. 

THE AWARDS

  - finding both nine-letter words in list = @Cleoriff 

              - finding the last word in the list = @Cleoriff 

       - finding most words in the list before notice to stop the game = @BobM 

Without checking through over 100 WHD games,  thnk this has been one to be solved in quickest time.   

The Word Hunt Diamond will be back next Tuesday -  with a new grid of letters and similar target.

I hope all those who normally play, and any new players, will join in with next week`s Word Hunt Diamond game.

Thanks everyone

That was a quick one and for once I was able to stay till the end.

Well done @Cleoriff @pgn @gmarkj for finding the words and thanks as always goes to @Mi-Amigo for all his hard work 👍

20mins trying to call the local Ortho clinic for an appointment kept me off-Forum 🙃 

Great work each of @gmarkj @Cleoriff @BobM 👍

And thanks, @Mi-Amigo 🙏

[Cleoriff]

Just a weirdly brilliant game @Mi-Amigo 😂

So many silly words, it seemed as if we were talking in a foreign language for the most part.

Well done everyone. 😎

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @BobM @pgn @Cleoriff 

Pleased you enjoyed the game.

As said, this was a great game, with some words, which, at first sight, I thought couldn`t be real words until checked...

What a wonderful language we have 😂 

[Cleoriff]

All those words from a simple  BACKFIRED!! Have to congratulate @Mi-Amigo for the hard work in sorting the WHD.

Next week......the country of choice is Spain 😂😂

And we only got bleeped once - and me telling an American colleague years ago it was perfectly ok to name his boat the "Jammy *bleep*" - he even sent me one of the tee-shirts he had made for those onboard, the name emblazoned over the left breast ... 😂
