Take a screen shot so administration can see it. Some ads are dependent on your location I was getting ads that were covering the board from Electric Boat here in Connecticut.

[Chrisser]

Is anyone else getting ads covering one whole corner of the board throughout the entire game, such that you can't play? It started happening yesterday.

Something that's more carbonated isn't SELTZIER.

You can COMPUTERISE something, but apparently you can't DECOMPUTERISE.

Got no points for HYDROGENOLOGICAL. It wasn't until a full minute later that I noticed I could drop the N and score points for HYDROGEOLOGICAL.

Apparently there's no such thing as a MACROPHONE.

REALNESS is a word. NONREAL is a word. But there's no such word as NONREALNESS. For real.

You're the most amazing player ever! But KISSUP isn't a word.

[Boulevardiere]

Because of the number of unexpected ____LESS words we've encountered, I tried BISONLESS. No luck.

The majority of us are more likely to be BISONLESS than INTERNETLESS (found yesterday for 22 points), but maybe the latter is more of an emergency and thus in need of its own word?

.........and yet "toadless" is a thing..........

ELECTROFARMING isn't a thing, I guess.

Wouldn't a solar farm be an example of ELECTROFARMING?

Overfarming is. But not underfarming. I'm not going to even look up properfarming or superfarming (the spelling checker is flagging all of them anyway, including the "overfarming" that is acceptable). I will have to tell everyone that I am planning my garden this year and if there is ever a real-world example of something being underfarmed, it will be my garden. But I will welcome every morsel I can harvest (saved from insects, squirrels -- aka tree-rats -- and our ravenous dog that thinks ribs are a scurrilous accusation and not a real thing). Yes, Adeline the golden retriever can and will eat cucumbers and squash and tomatoes, probably the more so since we like them all so much.
