I'll just repeat the rules from the start of the old thread:

Quote:
 
You can add, remove or change one letter at a time to form a new word.

Letters can change order or stay the same but a straight anagram is not allowed.

For example:

cared
bared
breed
deer
dear
rate
tamer


To continue:

Don't worry, Stan - I reckon Utd are safe.

I am not worried, we may still grab fourth place (fingers crossed) this puzzle is tougher than i expected

My brother-in-law, a life-long Man U fan, is finding this year much more relaxing than other years, he says. He doesn't have to worry about the tension of them nearly winning, since he is now resigned to them losing.

I see Stan has begun a new game because this one is too hard. This one is not hard if the words don't reach such high letter numbers. A five-letter word can always be changed. But no one likes me saying that. I sat in front of the cricket for hours with 'negotiable' in front of me and variations of ation, re, ent, ing, but no inspiration came to me.

Perhaps we could start again: how about

united

I think we should invite tickle to see if he can solve it? Where is the fun if you play easy, tho it is more joy and less stress that way, both games could be played though i think double letters is a bit much for my attempt at a new game.

United until tickle appears for me.

caro, i said exactly the same thing to three by text - watching the big match, first time my team not involved in any of these, so enjoying it rather than having my nerves wracked.

The obvious play would have been 'delegation' and another possibility would have been 'noticeable'.

They may go together, but surely glad and stoned are separate words.

Not when they are put together like that, surely? Beggars can't be choosers. I thought of putting delegation after relegation, but that seems like cheating/too easy/something.

Taf's only joshing, Caro - he's taken away two letters and added one. And there's nothing wrong with taking the easy option when all else fails.

I agree with you Caro, re "high letter numbers".

So I'll follow your "united" with:

tedium

(btw I could have have followed "disentangle" with "eglantines" but I only got that with a bit of help so I'm not going to)
