Very good teaser! A head-scratcher! It was brain-tickling!
Too early for serious thought. Looks like a great teaser though.
Another top teaser Jazz
Interesting,but on the easy side
Doesn't seem like it should be hard, but after RIP I was stuck
I like this kind of teaser. I was able to tell which words needed vowels and which needed consonants, so I got RIP and MOTOR right away, but I put the Y at the end of the first word and then got stuck. I knew it wouldn't fit at the beginning, but I don't know why I didn't think of trying it after the N. But I really liked this teaser--it was fun to work on it.
This was harder than I thought it would be! Good job Jazz!
My problem was exactly the same as Jcamm's! Great teaser, though. Really made me think.
Took me a while, but I GOT IT!!! YEAH! Finally a good one to do Thanks!
I got different words:
ANYMORE
TOPOR
RIM
ANYMORE
TOPOR
RIM
The editors should RIP up these old teasers. Start their brain MOTORs and find some new material. Does ANYMORE people feel like I do?
This was a new one for me. I enjoyed it. I started with the 7 letter figuring that the other two would fall into place. They did
Doehead, you've entertained us again! Clever man! Have a great weekend, friends!
Another easy one, but today I need only easy ones. Hi G & K.
Similar to crazy10man, I got ANYMORE, TOPOR, MIT.
not only is MIT not a word, but the T got used up in TOPOR.
What's "topor"?
FUN FUN FUN!! The letters just seemed to pop right into place.
got a different answer for 1 (enamore, because I spelled it wrong!) and 3 (tip)-made me work, regardless-and in a fun way!
I LOVE this puzzle - thanks for posting!
I loved this teaser, got it right away. Since I like to do word games it was easy for me.
I didn't realize "any more" could be written as one word, "anymore." You learn something new every day!
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I got all the words very quickly.
Good one! I got 2 right!
