Welcome to
The Word Hunt Diamond Game 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....
T
A D
E F G
L N
I
This week`s target is a target of 77 words - using only letters in the diamond - inc one 9-letter word.
With a larger target, it is likely that the game will not be completed by lunch [as in previous WHD],
so those at work or who have other commitments will have the chance to join in later. The game will continue through the evening and if not finished by the time I have to go will continue tomorrow [Wed] morning.
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 @Patricia1066 @TallTrees @J9el @BobM
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 77 words in the list [in the source used for this game], and the two nine-letter words in this WHD game, but also find additional words not in the list ?
Good luck everyone and have fun...

I did not miss your posted words, which were given while I was replying to previous words, and did answer in my next post.
Leapfrogging and rapid posting... the bane of WHD
Even though I stopped the game words still given
FLEA is correct and in list

Just to say @Mi-Amigo I deleted the post when I saw you had added those words later. I was concerned when I saw @pgn had posted FILET and you had included my words posted after FILET and FINAL. No matter, as you say, if people dont refresh the page, some posts appear out of sync AND rapid posting makes it harder for you. Apologies. Never my intention to offend you 😘
