Word Hunt Diamond - Game 136

[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.... 

                                                                                              E

                                                                                          G      I  

                                                                                       A     B     C  

                                                                                           L     M

                                                                                              N

This week`s target is a target of 57 words - using only letters in the diamond - inc one 9-letter word.

 RULES

No proper names are allowed.

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

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 B

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 the nine-letter word

       - 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   @TallTrees    @RafaC 

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 57 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...

Thank you @Cleoriff @gmarkj @pgn for playing. I hope you enjoyed the game.

Word Hunt Diamond game will be back next Tuesday - with a different grid and red letter

[pgn]

Good game, @Mi-Amigo and all players - thanks for scoring and adjudicating, @Mi-Amigo!

[Cleoriff]

Well done @pgn. I've told @Mi-Amigo  I won't be doing this again until I get a new computer.

At first it was just running slow on O2, now it's running slow on every site. My other half knows what he's doing with laptops and he has tried everything to no avail.  It's the same on Firefox and Chrome. It's also the oldest PC in the house and when I feel like chucking it on the trash truck you know I have reached the end of my tether!
Luckily the Black Friday sale is still on so have ordered a new one. We'll see what happens. 😂

[pgn]

Fingers crossed the new laptop has you flying, and not it flying out the window, and that it has an illuminated keyboard, @Cleoriff 😁 

[Cleoriff]

Not bothered about an illuminated keyboard now @pgn. Just one working properly and fast will do me 😂
