Got the beginning pretty easy, but then got stuck at 5 out of 8 guessed, because I swear I tried furlong but I guess I didn't. It took me an embarrassingly long time to get the last word fathom though lol.

Kept getting thrown off by the spangram

Can do Grand, Grandiose, Grand Finals.

Regardless I managed to it without hints.

Dropped my spaghetti all over the damn place on that one.

I knew Grand was going to be part of the spangram after the first couple words, but couldn't for the life of me figure out the rest of it.

It took me a minutes too. All of the words go with the word grand: grand piano, Grand Canyon, etc. A thousand dollars is called a grand. So the hint is "thousand followers" as in words that follow grand.

I feel like they're being obtuse about their use of proper nouns. Either you accept all of them or you accept none of them.

Thank you, that had confused me too, even after having solved it.

Found piano first and was shocked that was a theme word. It wasn't until 5 out of 8 though where the actual theme clicked with how it fits with the other words lol. I don't feel like the spanagram is necessarily the theme itself as opposed to be just being another theme word, honestly.

Those first two were jury and prize and I put off guessing those since I couldn't initially see how they related to the theme. I also saw grand very early, but couldn't figure out how to extend it to make a spangram.

Very easy. Should have gotten the spanagram first just to say I did. I saw it immediately as I was in the process of doing the first word. Wish I would have thought to search for it first lol.

Now that #10 is over, can we talk about the spangram? I feel like grandfinale was a terrible spangram and felt more like a theme word itself. I was just talking to my gf about it, and she said she didn't solve it even with hints since it was too hard. When I told her what it was and that it was just words with grand, she said she definitely wasn't thinking that.
