Not bad today. Your dentist post @Bagrat Wendy might have helped once I did the 2nd attempt :grin:

Does anyone try Spelling Bee. I wish they gave you a clue as to how many words is average, good or excellent like the target used to in the Express. I don’t seem to do well at all.

Hi Wendy - Never tried it before today though I had seen it.
I just had a go and got 47 points before I was stopped from playing further as I am not a subscriber :frowning:

Going by the graphic - I have rated as “Solid” and if I play on and get to 78 points that will rank it as nice with Genius level requiring 217 points.

It’s not letting me look at my game and so I don’t know how many words I got to score 47 points, but it was around 10+. I also got the 7 letter word straight off which I think scores a few bonus points?

When you start playing, there is a section (More drop-down list top right of my screen) and this has a Ranking listing which is a fuller version of the graphic I attached.

As I recall it starts with Beginner with 0 points.

I may play along for free from tomorrow to see if I can hit the mark before it forces me to stop.
:pray:

Oops I only got moving up. Now you’ve given me a challenge!!

I think you can keep playing until it forces you to sign in or register?
Moving up is just a step up the ladder with the next step being Good?
Enjoy!

There’s a little down arrow on the line where your words are, if you click that you can see whole list. Didn’t know you can use letters more than once, not that it’s helped much😀
Ooh I’ve got to solid as well

Oh I’ll happily take it - I just want the “hole” in 1.
Statistically, it seems the chances of this happening are 1/2315.
I am an eternal optimist and so it will happen, question is who will get there first? :grinning:

I got fed of spelling bee stopping me and I found Metro Puzzle - it’s not as “sexy” as the Spelling bee, but it is free and so I am switching to that.

I am at 42% having found 22/50 possible words. The target given is 45 and so I am 23 short of that :frowning:
