  1. Things you need to know about the new ‘Conversations’ PM system:

    a) DO NOT REPLY TO THE NOTIFICATION EMAIL! I get them, not the intended recipient. I get a lot of them and I do not want them! It is just a notification, log into the site and reply from there.

    b) To delete old conversations use the ‘Leave conversation’ option. This is just delete by another name.

    Sorry about that! :D

    Seriously, my partner has ME and an absorbing puzzle like this that she can come back to throughout the day is a real godsend.

    It looks like the day you shared the puzzle here was a toughie compared the puzzles released over the last two days. I've completed all short and long puzzles for three days now and I'm hooked as well :)

    If you're stuck with just a few words to go, there should be tick boxes at the top of the column to the left of the grid:

    Show words in alphabetical order
    Show some letters

    Ticking both of those is always enough to get me over the line.

    If all else fails, there are the word reveals - I think you get two per puzzle.

    A couple of american words made today's grid tricky, and the last word I found could easily have been a bonus word, in my view.

    I had to step away from today's puzzle a few times before I could finally finish it. I may have to wait until I get home to do these, it's hell on my productivity at work.

    A number of today's words were ones that no one would ever use in conversation or writing, even if they are technically "real" words.

    Ah, those were the tips I needed to get over the line. I was stuck on 51 with 63 bonus words and I just couldn't see anymore words - arcane or otherwise.

    62/62 for today's puzzle. No bonus word though. Still to tackle the Express game, do that later. Brain is dog tired...
