Sorry, forgot what the word meant.

I withdraw caryotin :(

Okay, well the word I thought of that needed another A was actionary. And now Chrome's spell checker doesn't know it. Hmmph.

(It doesn't know hmmph either.)

Definition of: karyotin
(kar′ē·ō′tin) noun Biol.
The stainable, usually reticulated substance of the cell nucleus; chromatin: also spelled caryotin. [<KARYO- + (CHROMA)TIN

Not playin', just sayin'.

I thought Lynn had managed a stroke of genius and had created caryotin from a different word though :) I know on one of my wins I posted my word unjumbled :)))))) fortunately I edited before anyone spotted it :) I did briefly wonder if that had happened with this one...

Looking forward to Lynn's next word anyway :)

Two different online word descramblers have told me that no other word uses all the letters in caryotin.

If Lynn wants to give it back to Annie for providing the most amusing guesses, I'm fine with that.

I would like to hand YOU the reins on this occasion David :) You came up with a real word that only needed the addition of one letter. I came nowhere close to that :))))) And what with my ongoing broadband issues, the game is less likely to stall...

Thank you for guessing. Unfortunately, that is not correct.

Quick clue while my lights are blue... starts with S

I might not have kidnapped a BT engineer by then... bank holiday weekend... they'll be thin on the ground, or in their little holes in the ground... till Tuesday at least... :)

I'll think about a new word. Feeling better than last Sunday but that's not to say normal.

Just checking in. I haven't been playing much because the words are too hard for me, but this most recent one was doable. :~0 David, I hope you continue to feel better.

I'm going to assume that my guess is correct and go ahead and post a new word. Annie did say she might not be around and to go ahead without her...

I completely forgot that it was even my word out there.

I have also forgotten what it was, but ameliorate does ring a bell. Let's assume it was and you're right.

Take it away.
