The last 6 is a T/27 (comes between the T/21 and the T/24). It's a chemical also called cresyl.

The 8 and remaining 7 begin with S for 36 and 50 points.

A tunic worn in the Middle Ages by a knight over his armor. (sing. and pl.)

I just realized that my stats don't add up properly to 148 by word length. There should be 46x5.
1:20 pm

OK, for those of you that remember being maddened by the word "emfs" in a puzzle a while back, this one will get your goat even worse!!!!

I got down to missing one word - a C4. I noodled all the combos that seemed like they could be words. No luck. So then I just systematically went through every possible combo till I finally found it. It's a C4/11 and is the stupidest word I've ever seen. It comes from Welsh, so that may make it make more sense, but not in English!!!!

Anyway, I'm done. 148/2034.

okay, so some random WELSH word counts, but Lysol doesn't? This is so unfair! :-)

Been a long time since I played, I don't even have a player ranking anymore. This is still a great game though. How is Lawyer-1 feeling these days?
