Footlights?

If I'm right I'll take a stab at the 8th one.

Blue started so they have nine and we had 8, so we won!

calculus: 2
This was supposed to be denominator/difficulty. I knew economics was a possible guess but was hoping that you'd avoid it because I didn't say Statistics or some other math more closely related

Hanger/decision but I didn't register furnace (pilot light I'm guessing?). That would have been clever

You got it, difficulty and decision.

I was thinking of using "abortion" for the same but thought it was a *little* too RSP. Also didn't want you guessing street.

Yeah, I always seemed to zig when you wanted me to zag.

Calculus/Economy was something I think I didn't think about carefully enough. I was just thinking of applications of calculus and it seemed like the obvious one. I also thought it might have been Difficulty (because calculus is hard) that would have been fine it turns out. I should have thought about how you might have picked something more obvious if you'd been trying to connect it to Economy.

Pilot I thought you and I were both super clever for coming up with the pilot light connection. I thought it had to be the right answer, but oops.

Mode, the Manner guess was in connection to "Mode & Manners", a common if old-fashioned saying.

I'm glad you always went aggressively though and tried to get at least two at a time. Giving two away though made the game really close and let them play a lot safer. Bad luck that I constantly narrowed it down to two things and then picked the one that turned out to be blue. But when I missed one it gave me the chance to guess at the one I missed later in the game.

On the blue side, I can't say I found a lot of good commonalities to build double word attempts out of.

Yeah, that site I found came up with some words I don't think are in the actual game.

birds are also pollinators, so I was hoping you'd guess blackbird.
