New -threads today (game #435) – the answers
The answers to today’s threads, game #435, is …
- Standing
- Character
- REPUTATION
- Stature
- NAME
- Spanggram: Street Cred
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
I’ve never had Street Cred, which is probably the reason why it took me some time to solve today’s threads puzzles. Not that it was super hard – the fact that there were only five answers to find, plus the speng, made it relatively straightforward when I got started.
The problem was that it took me ages to find the first word. When I did so by identifying standing by chance, it gave me the hint that I needed, and after that it was just a matter of sample and mistake.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.
