I was a bit confused at first too. It's just the words that could fit the puzzle but are not an answer. So they're ~missing~ from the 'valid words' list.

No apologies needed - missed words are words that should've been included in the game but were not. If you find a word that should be there, send me an in-game message by starting an entry with a period -- like .hello.

Generally, words that are in Merriam-Webster dictionary should be in the game unless they are Scottish (or other dialectals), or too technical. It is a bit subjective.

Occasionally you will see some words marked as 'Error': these are words that should not be in the game but slipped in. Most likely these are mis-spellings or country names or such.

Oh wow, that's really cool! Thanks for letting me know.

Apologies if I'm being dense, but what does the MISSED bit (in the game display, above the score) mean?
