I got totally robbed with this one yesterday. 😢 Went for DRIVE - SHONE which only gave me the E at the end. So, I pondered over it for 30 secs or so and thought I was quite clever in working out the letters in the word from the eliminations and played BULGE. 😔 Grrr!
MARVEL CHARACTERS BONUS ROUND DAY 48 AGENT-PEGGY-LIGER-EAGLE-BUGLE Felt bad for skipping U.S.Agent on my first pass. I was also desperate for a word before BUGLE.
CRASH -> NIFTY -> BULGE -> BUGLE Simultaneously amazing and annoying when all the letters are correct, but not all of them (or sometimes none of them) are in the correct place.
PLANS-RILED-WHOLE-FUGLE-BUGLE. Next up, we may be trying DEVIL as the starting word (if we ignore the apostrophe “s” in “The Adventure of the DEVIL’s Foot”).
That will be interesting as he has used DEVIL in guesses quite a few times. I am bypassing it and going with DYING. If he does go with DEVIL no biggie.
not being native english-speaking, i would like to thank john oliver's former podcast for saving my streak, which is the only reason i have ever heard of this word. (honor - slate - guile - bugle (using a different cosmere word for starters every week))
Bogle is so funny, both that you would think of it, and your reaction! I love these shorts - thanks, Mark.

'The DEVIL PLANS to BOGLE on his BUGLE'
This was a rare two-guess day for me! ROGUE - BUGLE! (Why did you reject GLOBE as your third guess, by the way? Seems like it would have been valid!)
The L in gLobe couldn't be the second letter.
I think this is the first time I simply had to swap two letters around.
SPEAR - MONEY - DEBIT - BULGE - BUGLE
I also couldn't think of anything and threw out Bogle as a random guess 😂
Brand Bites Belle Bogle Bugle
I played BULGE on 3.

Almost broke my streak with this one!
Plank - Lover - Shell - Cycle - Title - Bugle
An alien stole my bugle!!!

I got this in 4 because my third guess was BULGE
"Bogle"... this is *exactly* why we watch you solve puzzles, Mark! *chef's kiss* 👏👏👏👏
Got it in 4. :)
TRADE - GNOME - BULGE - BUGLE

Yes!! Getting the anagram is ao cool to me that I don't even mind the extra guess. 😊
ARISE
FLUTE
BULGE
BUGLE
I wonder how many went for BULGE or even BOGLE! before BUGLE
I STILL didn't hear the DROLE WHALE play the BUGLE
My string of words:
Watch (3)
Never (3)
Again (5)
Still (4)
I think that a bugle fits the Devil much better than a violin

I had never even heard of a bogle.
Is that as in, bogles your mind? (Pronounced, instead, with a short o) Edit: no, I see a quick look-up shows that is boggle...

I haven't heard BOGLE before but I'm sure Scottish supporters are haunted by their sudden exit from the Euros yesterday. 🏴
Stare > Ounce > Bugle
All green day for me. Each answer gave me just one green but they were the right greens.
4 guesses for me.
Baker -> Belch -> Blend -> Bugle
Chasing that e around, eh?
Been there, done that! 😁
@@RocksterOO1 Sure isn't easy when you just can't get it in the right spot.
Odd, for the 3rd word my mind went to exult
After devil you could have done Whole, but good guess with Bogle
I went long: PLACE - WHILE - DRONE - STYLE - BUGLE
STERN > CHIDE > PLACE > BULGE > BUGLE
I got it in 4 because I guessed BULGE as my 3rd! 🤦
Mind-boggling 😂
Oh, I feel cheated from getting this in 2!
SUITE
BULGE
BUGLE
So close😢
6/24... my 200+ streak ended.
Ha ha, got it in three with my favoured second guess upon the frequent ending e:
AROSE
GUILE
BUGLE
PLANS->DEVIL->GOLEM->BUGLE. Mark, every time you are not sure about the next guess, check GOLEM, it never fails me:)
I got a 3. Bread>Bulge>Bugle
It isn’t going to be plural, so not PLANS
Spawn a Bugle on the Ledge with Milky Cloth
Ruler
Bogle before bugle
Did you have a point?
@@RocksterOO1 no, just finding it amusing that Bogle was picked first
weird-?-bulge-bugle
