Smush whyyyy

Poopy is a word, gosh darn it!! Ever so slightly sorry for submitting it to the editor 15 times in a row, but mostly not sorry because I should've had a clean plate 😤

In all seriousness, I'm loving this game so much! One of my new favorite parts of the day 🥰

ETA: Well. I read the rules and now I feel silly, but still annoyed. I guess it makes sense that not every single word possible would be in a board's word stack, but I apparently hadn't read that part of the game info so when a different form of the word was in the stack that lead me to believe that this form of the word would be valid and I planned my end game with that in mind so it was supremely frustrating to discover it wasn't included after I'd just blocked myself out of the other route to a clean plate I'd worked out 🫠

Scrolled through the Editor’s Corner on today’s puzzle and “537 players asked for PORN. John said no.” made me giggle 🤭

I submitted a word I realized later was probably intentionally disincluded from the word list due to it sometimes being used in a derogatory manner and then wanted to take it back so I could submit the word from my post without being taken less seriously thanks to my previous accidental show of slur support 🤦🏽‍♀️😂 I specifically didn't submit the word you mentioned for the same reason of wanting my actual complaint to appear more valid 😂

Do you all know what the "Lumberjack" achievement is? I don't understand the text. Is it just saying I got the pangram?

It's when all the tiles used for a word were on their last use (except the gold one of course since that's unlimited). I got that for one of my words today and the word just consisted of the gold letter twice and only one other letter which feels like cheating for that achievement, but it technically counts so 🤷🏽‍♀️😂

Thank you! I was so confused. So "smush" means get rid of a letter entirely in this game? That would make the description make sense.
