It looks like I can’t use the AZ word finder without allowing ads anymore - does anyone have a work around that doesn’t involve ads or apps or anything else?

7:45 am

rururocks

checking the time

7:45 am

rururocks

I use Morewords if you're still around (the old version)

8:08 am

hokie carla

also bestwordlist.com is good too. there are ads around the perimeter but they don't pop up so easy to ignore.

8:08 am

hokie carla

ooh, I love it when the first word I see is a 7

8:08 am

rururocks

i understand these sites using ads but most of them are so annoying

8:09 am

hokie carla

the worst are the ads on ipad games

8:09 am

rururocks

the 9's are easy in this grid

8:09 am

rururocks

and the 8's too

8:10 am

rururocks

dear abby ads are the worse

8:16 am

kittychan

I’ll check out Morewords - thanks for the advice. AZ won’t show me more than the first page of words unless I turn my ad blocker off - I’m not going to do that

8:16 am

Sugrraleona

did anyone get the te6/21/

8:17 am

Sugrraleona

its my last word and driving me nuts

8:17 am

Sugrraleona

nevermind - found it for fireworks - anyone need a clue?

8:19 am

rururocks

kitty.. click on more words and in the yellow box it shows the old version which is better to use.. then scroll down to search word by length that is the best I've found.

8:34 am

kittychan

thanks

8:53 am

hokie carla

hurshy

10:16 am

hokie carla

re4 4 7 5 6

10:16 am

hurshy

i don't think that's right

10:16 am

hokie carla

yeah, the 7 is from the top

10:16 am

hurshy

i believe the bottom has two 4/7s, a 4/4, the fork one, and something else

10:17 am

hurshy

maybe if you're right about the five then i need that

10:17 am

hokie carla
