    Wrong number of letters. Count the dashes.
  2. bonanova

    Nope. Already guessed .... read the OP.

    Wrong number of letters - count the dashes...

    And 4 stars for the lady's puzzle!

    You're not quoting the OP. It's not really "like [you] said." Runners who have finished a race are not taken out of the race. If you don't see that, try this one.... Go back a few years and bet $1,000,000 on Secretariat in the 4th race. [He was a great race horse, if you're young.] He wins the 4th, of course - he places 1st - by seven lengths. After the race, you go to the window to collect your $2,500,000 prize. But they tell you: No Way! Secretariat didn't win the 4th race. How could he have won? He isn't even in the 4th race! Sorry, Charlie. Yah, that makes sense. 4th place is a difficult solution to find, but not because the solvers have not been logical. Just to give it one more shot: if #1 and #2 weren't in the race, then how did "#3" not win? And if they were in the race, how did Billy not pass them? Not to call you out on this ... your other puzzles have been pretty good. But in this case, believe it: Vox Populi Vox Dei.

    Nope. Take away the white wire if you want, there are still 120 combinations of the other 4 wires to the 5 numbered connectors.
  7. bonanova

    Nope, but perhaps closer than you might think. Kind of fits the clue words and does fit the mystery condition. Good guess.
  8. bonanova

    I'll check by later after some NY zzzzz's. good luck.
  9. bonanova

    Honorable mention. It fits the clues and the mystery connection. But you'll have to try harder. I think you'll like it when you find it.
  10. I'm pathetic at these.

    AlmytKth has [11] AISLE [14] COLUMN Good job.

    Nikyma has [8] DOUBT [13] EDGE [1] LISTEN [9] TIGHT [7] DOUGH [10] INDICT [12] ANSWER [15] RECEIPT [6] PEOPLE Wow - I'm humbled. I thought I was making them tough. Ah, but there's still #3. Others guesses close, added to first post.
  13. bonanova

    Wow ... I use onelook.com - the closest to your meaning it has is noun: a fault or defect in a system or machine. OK, points for that, but ... still doesn't have the mystery requirement.
  14. bonanova

    Fits mind but not bug. And doesn't have the required characteristic. [if you know it, it's a clue.]
  15. bonanova

    Fits bug but not mind. Nice try.

    [6] Wrong number of letters. [7] on the right track.
  18. bonanova

    Fits fathom but doesn't fit ken. Good try.

    Itachi-san and Duh Puck have [5] GHOST Duh Puck has [2] GUIDE I will enter the solutions into the OP as they're found. Also the previously guessed words. To keep focus on the others. It's not a "g" thing...
