The puzzle you show herebfor august 27 isn’t the same puzzle printed in the newspaper which has the letter c in the middle and the letters A, I, L, T, U, Y around the edges. The answer section on page 49 doesn’t show the word list, but merely repeats the directions so I need to get the correct official word list to compare the word list I compiled myself for the printed newspaper puzzle.
This site is based off of the online version, and not what’s on the print version. That puzzle was played on April 15, 2023 online.

I also need the answers to the weekly spelling bee of 8/27/23 with the letter C in the middle. The “answers” given were merely the instructions to the puzzle. Please give the words that apply to the 8/27/23 spelling bee with “C” in the middle.
Sorry to bug you! The April 15 link does not have the letter C in the middle, with A, I, L, T, U, Y around it. The reason why we’re asking you is that the New York Magazine of August 27, 2023, erroneously published the Spelling Bee rules upside down, instead of the answers. Thanks.
Sorry, it was 2022 and not 2023. Does this work:

april 15 2022 does not work either. The April 15 link does not have the letter C in the middle, with A, I, L, T, U, Y around it. The reason why we’re asking you is that the New York Magazine of August 27, 2023, erroneously published the Spelling Bee rules upside down, instead of the answers. Thanks.
Carolin and Theresa are right. We need answers for 8/27 Spelling Bee with C in middle, and A, I, L, T,U, and Y. As pointed out, the “answers” are merely instructions on how to do the puzzle. Help! My husband is making me crazy about this.
Boy oh baby what a mess. Look at what Carolin, Theresa and Lois commented. What’s up Bill? (or whoever is responsible for the Weekend Magazine puzzles).
