    It may be they changed "FETUS" since that is a (broadly) American spelling, and they have obviously gone global now, so maybe they're avoiding words that British players wouldn't get... (I saw a very lengthy discussion only a couple of days ago about the correct / cross-pond / original spelling of foetus / fetus / fœtus).

    They had "homer" a few days ago. I only know Homer (as in the Greek tragedy or the main character in The Simpsons). I didn't think homer would be a word as it's really a name, but it was really the only thing that sounded like it might be the solution. Had to look it up and apparently it's an American word for an American game mostly played by Americans (homerun, but without the "un") X| Either that or a carrier pigeon.

      It can also mean a fanatic sports team fan who lives, breaths and bleeds for the home team that can do no wrong. (Dang refs got it in for us).

            Homer for homerun is already informal, I think homer for sports fan is informal informal. That meaning isn't mentioned in online dictionaries anyway :~

              Wow, apparently that's the same word in Dutch. Never heard of it. Found it on Wikipedia, but online dictionaries don't mention it.

                  haha yes, that one had me stumped for a while. I'd only got one more attempt, I had ?OMER but only letters like M, X, Z .. and H left. I couldn't bring myself to believe the NYT were accepting names as valid dictionary words. I tried H hoping I would be wrong... :(

                    I failed on HOMER but it told me that proper names are possible. Some time ago the answer was something like COLOR which told me that US spellings are possible, which is not surprising.

                      It's all US spelling, isn't it? :confused: After all, it's from New York Times, not London Times :rolleyes:

                          No argument there and it might be a colloqialism local to where I lived when I would hear it which was the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area of Minnesota (a bunch of homers if there ever were any). :laugh:
