    I know this is really not surprising any more in light of the other -LESS words that count, but PIGLESS scores points.

    Managed to guess EDENTULOUSNESSES.
    In keeping with the theme, that's toothless.

    I didn't know that one, but I have played "ympe" a couple times. I think your word is even harder to spot. Great job (again).

    Been looking for this word recently and finally found it on a board played 40 times.

    Nice find. It is nice when we make an unexpected discovery.

    So... I don't actually have a very large active vocabulary, I just know a good number of prefixes, suffixes, and Latin and Greek root words, and occasionally manage to cobble together something good.
    I just found the word "lithology" in a 4x4 - study of rocks, pretty straightforward, I thought, and then I noticed the prefix "aero" just sitting there next to it.
    Long story short, AEROLITHOLOGY is an acceptable word, referring to the study of meteorites. Makes sense, but I wasn't actually expecting the combination to work!

    Woo Hoo ... I just played a game I had played previously - no, I didn't beat my score, yet that's so unexpected. A great New Year present!

    Just got points for REMOTECONTROLLERS, which is not a compound word I've seen anywhere else.

    STONKS scores points.

    Very odd! I'm guessing those monkeys will be close to completing Hamlet soon!
