I've gone wrong somewhere I think.
14d award in martial art that can't be built on. I had green belt
16a supply regiment usurping power with great authority s?p?e??y I put supremecy then realised that it should be supremAcy
Where have I gone wrong?

[dannyk13]

14d.Yes
16a.Supremely

[puzzled54]

I have supremely

[dannyk13]

supremely - reme(regiment) in sup(p)ly

[factor-fiction]

green belt looks okay (more likely than brown belt)
The spelling is SUPREMACY (I assume you meant 9 letters although you show 8).
Are you saying supremacy doesn't allow green belt? Where is the clash?

[dannyk13]

FF see ^^^^

[factor-fiction]

Yes, of course -SUPREMELY - supply minus the P. etc. I thought you were saying you knew supremacy was right

[factor-fiction]

Yes I know now dannyk thanks. I can't read answers while I'm still typing- they were all within a minute

[dannyk13]

I said 14d Green belt was correct

[factor-fiction]

Perhaps you want me to have a few tabs open and keep checking every few seconds whether you've answered before I press submit

[MargoTester]

Ah ha. I see it all now. Thanks Danny Puzzled and factor-fiction. Sorry about the wrong number count ff. The 'a' in supremacy was clashing with the 'e' in green belt

[dannyk13]

FF. Of course not. Just unfortunate when posts cross.

[factor-fiction]

I agree. But your "I said 14d Green belt was correct" sounded to me as if my answer of green belt looks okay" had irritated you.
Anyway, it's my day off work so I'd just rather get on now and help in between doing a few jobs

[dannyk13]

No I was just correcting your post of 13.09

[factor-fiction]

I see. My 14:09 post was to MargoTester though not to you and was prompted by seeing puzzled's answer. I think we need to allow people at least a minute or two and expect the odd bit of overlap

[factor-fiction]

Oops- I meant 13:09 not 14:09.
I'm taking a break now.

[dannyk13]

Agreed
