Elle Mini #120 [Meta]

· By Elle · Published 2023-10-23T18:59:10.052Z

Meta Prompt
The 7-letter solution is a Boggle word found in the solution that means crash. A Boggle word is one found by stringing together letters in the grid via any of the 8 cardinal directions without revisiting a cell. There is no rearrangement of the solution grid. For a bit more of a challenge, instead find the only 11-letter Boggle word in the grid, that starts with D.

              Interesting- it only shows me my guess there. But… DEALLOCATED!
              • Elle constructor · 2023-10-26T02:43:25.433Z
                Ooh, I guess it’s only for the constructor then. But that’s correct!
