Jumble Spoiler – 11/18/20

Haseo's Animation (under remodeling) on Twitter: "@theodd1sout can we do an  MMA chess match instead of chess boxing? and use life sized pieces too XD  #theodd1sout… "

Visual Description:  The no-class victor.

KOWEA  =  AWOKE,  TRBIO  =  ORBIT,  CEHNOS  =  CHOSEN,  INTUGO  =  OUTING   —   Giving us:  OKEOITCHOEOUNG

Clue/Question:  He could never beat the gingerbread man at chess because it was – – –

Buni » Buni is a dark comic which updates Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Answer:  ONE TOUGH COOKIE

(And, one very poor example of good sportsmanship!  I haven’t played chess in a while, but could someone tell me when they replaced:  Checkmate! . . . with Booyah!?  Couldn’t he just act as though he has won before.  Frosted clown!  One day he’ll get his.  And, then Buni can say:  “That’s the way the cookie crumbles!”

All of today’s clue words currently reside on the ralis95 clue word database.  However, all of today’s jumbles came up as new.  None of them tripped me up though.  The answer letter layout was a flamboyant fourteen letter jumble.  I think it was plenty cryptic.  I just picked up on the COOKIE vibe right away, and took it from there.

My paper doesn’t carry Buni, though I have seen it in other papers somewhere.  I’m guessing Buni is a bit of a sad sack.  Fun cartoon though.  Nice job by Mr. Ryan Pagelow!  Be well and do good friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  Condolences to the family of Edmund P. Lynch, who passed away on Monday, November 16, 2020.  His obit mention that he kept his mind sharp by playing Jumble puzzles!  He was one of ours, guys!  RIP, Ed!)   —   YUR
