flip again!
flip!
flip!!
yay, we tied!
dang, slow connection is my excuse. :-) I'm not using my normal internet...
HA! I made it first! But still had 18 left on the previous one, oh well, maybe fireworks today.
Hi All
Auto-flip worked. And the stats are ready to go. No more waiting after the flip!
Thanks again, Dr_God!!!!
Yeah Dr._God!
thank-you!
Now, if I could only squish my screen a little bit, then I could see the grid, the words, and the chat without side to side scrolling.
JBsAnno- Sounds like you need to change your monitor resolution to 1024x768
I think you need to redo your icon, kimber, so that we can see a full-size icon for your puppy.
Still wearing all of your jewellery at once though. No need for it.
I'll try it, Dr_G! BRB
Sometimes, simpler is better.
help me with what you mean?
i see a full size puppy
Thanks, Dr_God, that worked. Except now I need glasses!
kimber- Two version of icons are stored now - a big one for the profile page and small one for the chat log.
methinks Jamie's not talking to me now! Why??
wow, I just saw the full icon on my profile page -- nice job, Dr_G -- we note you have changed your icon too
I hear you, Jacula. Have no fear. ;)
kool
Yeah. My old icon was getting a bit old.
Glad your hear me, DR_G., but why no answer?
Edit/delete button please?
Haven't asked a question
what is the profile page? My account?
Well, 'edit' at the very least. The 'delete' could cause clue-giving and going away probs.
The profile page is the page you see when you click on the little person icon next to someone's name
de 6/30
Jacula (pls remember it's past 1:00am in the morning for me...) first of all, How did you find out that Dr_God HAS a first name, and second, how high are you in the pantheon that you get to call Him by it? <bosg - big ol' sloppy grin>
Sorry, Cyber. Haven't tuning into the flipped grid yet.
The 'edit' button is a much bigger deal than it seems. The odds of that feature showing up on the site is slim, unfortunately.
Ah! I do know that, Jamie. THANK YOU for giving me a proper reason for the no.
Jacula-
JBS - don't push your luck! LOL.
It would basically open up a Pandora's box of potential problems
hee, hee!
People could theoretically all be editing their posts at the same time, so the chat log would be completely chaotic, with posts changing on the fly. Nasty nasty bizness.
i think i did it!
Much better! :)
How can you hide the chat log now?
i love my typos.. i know i;m alive and not at work....
Dr_G - I take your point. The buttons could only be allowed on a much bigger site.
Cute puppy, kimber!
Just flip to the Who's Online or My Friends tab
aha thanks, nice
just got with the theme for the day *refresh*
Have a (((HUG)) anyway, Dr_G. You've had a rought time (with me at least!) these past couple of days.
Still think it looks cluttered though! *Ducks*
I've been doing this for going on 10 years now so my skin is pretty thick. Don't worry about little ol' me. ;)
I really like that fact that I dont have to flip between the tile stats and the word list
BTW, JBsAnno, your icon reminds me a pic I came across last night: http://mfrost.typepad.com/photos/uncat egorized/schoolio.jpg
JBS- do you want her?
Yeah! Just like my lad! Stil likes a hug from his old Mum though. ROFLOL.
Jumping for joy on the canine side!! How cute. Thanks, Dr_G!
I have a soft spot for pics of dogs. Here's another: http://tinyurl.com/ovya8 :)
Thanks for the offer, kimblue, BUT I think my 3 cats, AND my husband would have strenuous objections to a dog, no matter how cute.
Oh, bad puppy!
back again.... Hi Dr_God. It's working out pretty well, isn't it? I really like this version...
Dr_G - have you gone to www.cuteoverload.com ?? It really is an overload! and they have great dog pictures.
That's where I saw the pics of the dogs.
so i see the word count and no "r" ... how is the grid this evening?
stidmama- The transition has gone quite smoothly actually. I'm surprised. ;)
Soory for delay! Just trying to talk my daughter out of going to work by taxi even right now, since she only got in from pub ay about 3am.
Their cat pictures are adorable, and I have absconded with several for icons!
:-) I am glad I'm just a "Geekette" and not trying to do what you do! simple html and pirated scripts are about all I can handle!
let's see, I think I need to update my icon. What is the theme for today?
tea cups?
sports
stid...i don;t even know what day it is!
tea cups i think
i thought it was tea cups on Saturday?
Well, I'm up to 40 words, and must quit for now. See you all later! {{{{{HUGS to all, and chocolattemochajava to stidmama!)))
later jb.....................
guess I was a day ahead of myself! -- had my teacup out yesterday!
later, JB! mochajavachocolatte right back atcha!
I saw the pretty teacup, thought you were just anticipating today! LOL my mother has a nice little collection...
Typically, when y'all get to the words that you just don't know, do you start guessing randomly, or what?
that's it, samantha!
I have teacups on my list for today
this new interface rules....
I rather like it myself
Thank you, nan. It's nice to know I'm not the only person sitting at my keyboard typing "palf", "hond" and ""fote"
de 7/44
my computer is acting up. will have to stick with my precious children (back when they were still precious) for the moment... *dives into grid*
*Sigh* She's gone to work via taxi anyway.
A good work ethic is something to be proud of.
I know. Bu not when you've been going through what she has lately. Nuff said.
deal
eek!
hee hee!
don't worr -- we all do it -- very easy with this set up.
It's also good to know I'm not the only one who does *that*
Oh well, I did say earlier that it would happen to me sooner or later. What better time than when I've been up all night waiting for my daughter to come home and then had to watch her virtually go straight out again when she probably should not?
if nylon is a word -- why isn't teflon?
teflon is still under tradename status, I believe
Jacula -- I haven't been in that situation, but I can tell it's hard on you. {{{HUG}}} remember, young people are very resilient...
that's it -- 100 words and time to quit for the night. See you tomorrow :)
see you tomorrow, nan! sleep well!
Will do, Stid, and thanks for the hug.
Cybernan - Sleep well'x
Dr God, are you still here?
Ugh. You have to scroll to see all the words you have...kind of annoying.
I'm with you, cyber -- at 100 that's enough for tonight. nite all -- be well and happy babbling.
good night ch1212!
I am utterly stuck at 68 words and feeling inadequate
hi joey....
hey, stidmama, how are U?
SamanthaJoy -- I am at 87 words at the moment, need any help?
I've tried, I really have! I prefer the old site.
hanging in there, joey.... long day, long week, you know the routine.
Well, yes, but I don't know that I should start here . . . Maybe a therapist or something
sure do. sitting here waiting for the third devastating storm in 4 days.
Jacula... dear... maybe you just need to rest a while? you're up awfully late today.
Oh, well, I've paid for life, so I guess it doesn't matter whether I play or I don't.
oh, I haven't been keeping up with the weather elsewhere this week... I remember someone had the windows in their house blow out a day or two ago -- was that you?
ooh fireworks when i finish!
No, Stid, I hate this new site. It WILL stop me playing.
no, just lost plants so far and a lot of sleep
Jacula... I understand. I am so sorry.... :-(
joey, will keep my fingers crossed that it remains that way for you. :-)
Are you in Texas, joey? We're in the same situation here.
YAY cying!
Me, too, Stid.xx
joey - has the storm hit you guys yet? we're waiting.....
yes, SamanthaJoy, I am in Fort Worth
we have rain and lightning, last night we had hail
oh no... i hope you'll be okay joey... big storm?
I'm south of you, NW of Austin, and I can hear the storm blowing in right now
Ren, have you been hit hard this week+
yes they are predicting 3 in a row tonight
And never mind if the people who paid just get left to the scrapheap. It's all in the name of pgress, eh?
or even progress.
yesterday we were..they said we were going to get heavy rain and wind....tornadoes - ows by you?
rain, wind and lightning, no close tornados yet.
What would you change, jacula?
Jacula... I don't know what to say except that I am sad.
Samantha - I'd unclutter the site.
Put the log on a slower refresh back benaeath the grid. The bigger icons when clicking on profiles would be a good thing to keep, as would the last word and time it was entered.
Move the stats back to another tab?
I've just realized that I am seeing a different page than you; I am not a paid user, and your page has to have more info than mine does
joey - i've got the weather channel on and naturally - i missed it for the area.
okay, I quit. the lightning is getting close. gotta get the flashlight
man, teflon should totally be a word
Ren
I hate how you have to scroll to see all the words you have.
yes
Ren, batten down the hatches. it is getting clase her
good luck joey
The scrollable grid is nice but not essential, but the found words list should stay on the left of the grid. The stats don't need to be below. There was really no hardship in flipping between the word list and the stats.
that is close here. night all
thanks all, quitting at 97
nite joey...take care -
Night joey. Stay safe
you too. good luck to all
renfield, how close is it to you then?
The fire works on finishing are nice, but not essential, and, as I've said before, I'm not really fussed about the who's online or friend lists.
i'm in houston about 5 hours away from joey
The new page is just all too much.
so -- you're still okay? I used to hate storms when we lived in Virginia -- the things that we get here are nothing like those... (but bad enough for me!)
HATE IT!
yes - the radar is shjoey's it's in her area right now
I hope you lot having storms to come (as have we here in UK, though not so severe) wil all be okay.
I disagree Jacula, I think the new site is much better - my only point would be that there is a load of space to the left and right of the page (blue patterns) that is wasted.
SamanthaJoy-- you should be seeing essentially what we're all seeing at the moment, the "stats" boxes will not be visible to non-paid users after 14 days, but otherwise most of the site is supposed to be the same for all of us!
Oooohhhhhh, I see. I had thought y'all had more than I do
that was certanly a sentence that made sense - the radar is showing that the storm is hitting joey's area of the state right now
I got the meaning of the post, renfield, if the words were a little contorted... :-)
Boyassway - Clear space in not a bad thing - it gives you time to think! There again, I don't know your age. You could well be one of the fill everything with noise and colour generation. No disrespect, but that's not my thing.
It's further south, too, Renfield. I'm in Liberty Hill (45 min NW of Austin) and I am expecting hail tonight. Again.
46
thanks stid....:D)
i wonder if that blue sapce is our time out or meditation space?
I really want to get to 100 words before I stop tonight, I am at 87 now...
That sucks about all the tornadoes. Are they still saying this is going to be a busy year like the last one?
Yes, the next *few* years are going to be bad. This is cyclical and it's been predicted for years.
Ah, Gotcha.
when I don't want the blue, I make the window smaller so I don't see it. But it doesn't bother me in general... BABBLE *IS* my timeout space! LOL
Ask your insurance agent for details--the actuaries know more about it than the meteorologists do. ;D
and with all the building that;s going on here - there's no trees left and it's a total flood area now!
Good morning, everyone! What's up with the Who's Hot section of the rankings??
I was just wondering. I don't really need to worry since I live in Seattle.
I just thought that because the type face is quite small, the blue could be utilised to enlarge everything a bit to make it easier to read.
Ouch. I understand why people do it, but I wouldn't live in Houston (or Seattle for that matter) for any amount of money.
Haha. Why not?
is the old board completely gone?
'Morning, Jera! we're discussing the storm coming into Texas off the Gulf again... not sure what you're talking about....
Not enough sunshine. I'd be suicidal within six months.
The old board is not accessible now, no
Haha. You've never been here in the summer.
I start begging for the rain.
Ha, no-one's hot Jera! lol
i love the economics of houston - i hate the crime, the heat and the hurricanes
If you are using most browsers, you should be able to increase the font size by going to the "View" tab....
No, I have. It is beautiful, don't get me wrong--but it was still cloudy five days out of fourteen, and my hosts told it was sunny for the time of year.
lol
Yeah. That's true.
Hello everyone
Hello everyone how are you today?
heya
Oh well, guess something got reset. Just glad it's not just me!
stidmama, it makes no difference on Explorer
That's why you should use Mozilla...
Ren and I are being rained on, Avaneko seems cheerful, and how are you?
tell me more avaneko
You can adjust font size and everything.
I personally like the tab feature of mozilla firefox.
The storms are also due to hit UK, if anyone cares.
oh -- that's too bad Boysaway. It's nice to be able to resize and stuff.
Is it free to download?
As for making the font bigger..
Yup it is.
we're being rained on all over the world!!!!!!!!
Whatever you're using--try holding down the "Ctrl" key and hitting the plus/equals key
Oh -- I didn't realize that, Jacula! I thought you meant just that really big storms like the hurricanes don't hit the UK much... you mean your weather is going to go yucky, too?
Oh that's a quick solution too.
i just clikced increase on mozilla.....wow i can read it from across the street!!!!!
we're supposed to get some rain in the next couple days (and I hope we do) but not "storm" rain, just liquid sunshine.
I think that works with IE too
Yeah it should.
For a bigger font in Firefox use the control key and hit the =/+ button twice.
my pineapple tree can use some rain...if it doesn;t blow it to cuba
holes
oh man!
My house has been flooded 3 times (and 2 near misses). Each time takes 6 months to sort out. I no longer ave flood insurance, as no one will insure me. Next time it happens, I'm f*cked!
Oh no! that is terrible, Jacula! I would be frantic each time it drizzled...
foed
geez. I keep doing that.
AVANEKO! LOL ;-)
It's OK, Avaneko, it's not actually a word :D
(I tried it anyway :) )
Stid - you're not jopking!
Haha. That's funny
Have you considered selling, Jacula?
no -- I am NOT joking. When we built out home, I purposefully looked for a piece of land that was UP. We're on the highest bit in the neighborhood, which is up a hill, on the banks of the sound. It would take an act of all the old gods working together (fat chance) to flood this house!
Samantha - selling in the UK these days without telling al is a fineable offence.
As I said, I'm f*cked.
shoe
shit!
So have you considered tracking down the person who sold to you?
Our house used to flood. We had to build a drainage system. Never had problems after that.
sorry!
Said \I'd do it, din't I?
New format is great! Much easier now to keep an eye on stats & chat log at the same time.
Ray - I wish you'd stop posing as Dr_G!
It's the same in our state, Jacula... hoping we don't ever have to sell -- but mostly because I like it here.
I'm his twin brother.
Avan - I used all my life saving to build dranage sytems that didn't work. Local ater board has now also done drainage systems which will work if new houses cease to be built! It's a Green Belt area here, but the present Government doesn't seem to honour that.
Odd puzzle today... no re's or un's...
Ah. I understand.
No re's? Ex-Wren will love it!
:-( *yucky face* governments these days just don't seem to care...
I don't know that that's so much of a change, really
Not that I'm complaining really, just when things lag, looking for what follows an re or un can help...
Hey, why *doesn't* "ensot" mean "to get drunk"?
heh
notes
true, Jera -- gack! I am so tired... I think I'd better turn in. Got to 92 words, more than halfway so that's good enough. Hope to see you all tomorrow -- {{{Jacula}}}
crap sorry
no worries Krys. Everyone has done it or is gonna do it.
looks like we're going to have a learning curve....
Night Night stid
I've embarrassed nyself by doing it when I was guessing at stupid words
Doing better than me, I'm slogging along at only 68...
nite stid.....
Teflon's not allowed.:(
I think we decided that is because the word is still under copyright
Is it spelled 'flack'? As in "taking ___"?
usually, yes
Well today's theme is certainly getting me in the mood... I'm hostessing abig Mother/Daughter Victorian Tea Party next weekend!
Hrm. I've always been writing it without k
flak
I don't think there's a c in it, Kickstart...
Ah, I see
thx
Huh. I thought "flak" and "flack" were two different words
Taking flak comes form the flak jacket soldiers wear (I think)
Merriam Webster says they're alternate spellings of the same word
Aha... but neither valid? Never mind.. no K...
has anyone found 7's except the D7/44 mentioned earlier? I'm bored, want to go hunting for big game :)
I think the no c version is older??
I haven't added a word in fifteen minutes. I think I am officially stuck at 80
The "no c" version is the first (most common) spelling
i was catching up in the chat log. i'm sorry jacula is unhappy, but i really like having everything visible liek this. and the only reason i'm playing today is to see what the fireworks look like!
I just past tense some word & struggled up to 81...
Time to start monkey-typing!
Heh. I tried palace
So did I, but only in my head
Has anyone ever mentioned how many possible combinations of words in a 5x5 grid without re-using any characters?
ugh, i could figure it out but not this late at night
I'm awfully tempted to write a solver for this.
there's a couple out there already
google on "boggle solver"
lathe
dammit, sorry
or tanglewood solver
Not in this puzzle, anyway
no, "tangleword solver"
good thing it wasn't a word on this ;(
I'm such a sheep - I still tried it :)
Don't write any solvers, as that would spoil all your fun.
heh
I doubt I'll get many more unfortunately. At 60 and stumped.
As for me not liking the new site... well, I may just go away, but I doubt it would blight anyone's life! LOL.
ARG! Why isn't pagent a word?
pageant
mistress....you would do that to me!
Because the word is "pageant"
lol
thanks guys.
It's pageant
Ren - I wouldn't leave you, my dear, but I may leave the site.
Doesn't like 'hoho'. What would Santa say?
hohoho?
I love those.
what would *Hostess* say?!
Yet haha would be valid... also hehs...
uhoh?
would hostess say twinkie?
Only one word using the X so far...anyone get another?
I got two words using the x, a 4 and a 5
Ah, got the 5 with x now.
Clue?
i'm up to 133 but still only found the f7. those other 7s must be tricky!
g
Hmmm...There are at least two words I have entered that are not showing up in my list, though I am told they have already been used when I try to re-add them...
there's a d 7
Try refreshing, Kermiteer
ren - another D7, or the D7/44 mentioned earlier?
g, my gardening knowledge came in handy at last :)
Got it, thank you!
I've only found one 6 so far, LOL
d 7/44 mentioned earlier
sadly, no phlox for gardeners, though
Which D starts the 7?
upper
think about going to a rock concert or a runway
Weird... refreshing didn't work until I hit my limit and posted. Your touch is Magic, Jera.
Hey Ren!
stenca
hey chic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Speaking of which, I'll be off with my daughter at Monsters of Rock on June 3rd. Alice Cooper, Deep Purple, Ted Nugent and others.
Hope it's a dry day!
it's funny to see what people noodle when they are stuck :)
Ooohhhhhhhh, sounds wonderful
How's the grid?
my name is alice, i live in a palace
Glad to help Kermiteer... I had to quite yesterday because I couldn't enter my chat... I'd hit enter & nothing...
That'd be nice...I can't leave the house for much these days...only a few weeks to baby :)
Sounds awesome, Jacula!!
not bad so far chic - however - you know i;m always one of the last to finish!
I just passed halfway, whoo-hoo!
Ditto
But the storm is officially getting really bad now
Thode
98 words (no lists) found here. Not bad for a woman who's not slept for 24 hours.
yay mistress!!!!
Hello everyone!! nice grid??
The first half is a cakewalk
The second half is to die for
oh man teflon isn't good! well that's it, i'm stuck
teflon
darn it
My silly husband woke me up looking for the phone.. now I can't get back to sleep... going over lists for the tea party made me realize it was hopeless & I might as well get up & Babble...
Thanks, rEN.XXX
Stumped on that D7. 64 words only :(
hey mrp.....i see you got your fireworks now!
Oooh, I've found 3 whole 6-letter words now *insert eyeroll here*
Hi ren!! sure did! God was listening!! LOL
all things come to those who are persistent!!!!!!
Morning, MrP... or is it evening for you??
Hello Jera! it is evening 4.55pm!!
yeah it's not bad Mr Pres.
LOL ren!! and don't we know it!!
Hi Student!! Nice evening where you are??
YUP. Ren.
{{{JAC}}} you on early!!
Not a single words using that M yet
The sun is up, Ren, and even though my hair's singeing, I'm still looking for words.
MrP - No, up very, very late.
LOL mistress! pull the shades!
Did you get my mail earlier, MrP?
100 words! Go me!
se5/10 = a name... any other definition? I ask because I was monkeytyping & was amazed it was valid...
Did you get my mail earlier, MrP?
100 words! Go me!
Did you get my mail earlier, M rP?
Did you get my mail earlier, M rP?
Did you get my mail earlier, M rP?
Think I will, Ren. *ZONK!*
I can't even find a name, so I can't look up the word
Oh yes I did Jac, I am ready to use it too, but haven't got Lickety interested in posting his clues yet... mmmmmm
yay I got a t6 I've never heard of before by noodling
what?????? zonk out????
is anyone else getting weirderror messages and connection problems and having the time say there's less than one minute left?
My time wasn't showing at all for a while there, now I'm getting long lags...
Krys ... it's being a bit sticky for sure.
I'm getting really slow response time yeah...but I did get the D7 :)
mayhap i'll switch to sudoku for a while... or go to bed, now that it is midnight here
Does anyone have a P6? It's my last word, but it won't fall out of the grid for me.
Tell lickety to please post his clues as I am ready for a list...
Ren, you know those storms? They're actually tornadoes up here now
yeah, I have a p6...
it's a plural
oh no sam!!!!!!
It's not too bad--tornadoes that form at ngiht are almost never powerful, rarely go over F6
Errrr, F2
Kickstart, is the singular in the grid? I don't seem to have anything that isn't already pluralised. *bimbles off to check again*
swooooossssshhhhhhhhh F6...auntie em, auntie em
Where are you at?
renfield: think 'calm'
Heh. I'm in Central Texas
forget that, kickstart, I do already have a p6 that's a plural ... guess I need another. Thanks anyway :)
Ah...my wife is from Alabama, I'm Canadian so I have no tornado experience ;)
i'm on the outskirts of houston in a really old house with lots of trees....
hello folks, what's a good total to stop at?
Peaople have left anywhere from 65 to 100
Oh, well, a tornado isn't going to come all the way to YOU
Anyway
wow i just had an earthquake
Okay, WHAT?
CENT?
it's not in the grid
WHAT cindasu - where are you?????
cindasu - where are you?
palods
*stop panic* :) whoops.
alaska
oooh.
cindasu....how bad????
it was just a small shaker but reading about your storms i jumped i haven't yet what it was
does this sounds like it? # 50 km (31 miles) NNW (333°) from Chickaloon, AK # 54 km (33 miles) N (358°) from Sutton-Alpine, AK # 57 km (36 miles) N (10°) from Buffalo Soapstone, AK # 120 km (75 miles) NNE (21°) from Anchorage, AK
i got 2 p6s, both of which are pl
plutal
Getting too tired...I've tried lathe about 5 times now. Nite!
plural, darn it maybe it's bedtime
i haven't got thehang of this posting yet sorry
(magnitude 2.1)
nite kick
yes it does
i'm surprised you felt it!
Thanks, KBtoy, but this looks like another, singular word ... I have both the plural p6s .... thanks anyway :)
I only have one--do you have clues?
hello trishtrash!
I find it interesting listening to people in America talking about storms. Things like tornados, snow storms and even earthquakes are a completely foreign concept to me.
the other p6 is only one letter different than the easy p6
Heya MrP :)
where are you from?
A tornado is just a hurricane on land
Jera, Lickety is posting very shortly
it's very localized.. i was thinking about that when the texans were talking about tornados that were f6 or whatever.. we talk about earthquakes that way on the west coast and i grew up in blizzard country but i know nothing about tornados
Samantha ... I have the plural of the state of not being at war, and pe + a long time
Australia, down south in Melbourne - home of the last Commonwealth Games. Never seen snow!
not to be too pedantic but a tornado is literally a waterspout on land, not a hurricane :P
GOT IT! Thank you
i thought hurricanes weren't funnel shaped and tornados were (see?)
What part of Alaska are you in?
Ah, okay.
OMG i got the other p6
OOh, hand it over (well, a clue) KBtoy !
i recently learned the difference between sleet, hail, and freezing rain :)
anchorage
Me, too.
Hurricanes tend to spread out more, mostly because of the water they carry, but they're basically the same shape and characterized by many of the same elements
never heard of this word before (of course) but google says "small boat powered by foot"
got it! thanks
Is it almost hurricane season in the US again?
yeah, just about another month
hurricanes are really a totally different phenomenon & carry millions of times the energy of a single tornado, & usually affect entire states or even multiple states
officially starts june 1, I think
Yes, starts in June or early July, and the tornadoes are already on us
whereas a tornado usually affects a trailer park or two :)
THANK YOU!! KBtoy :)
hmm...the metric 'tonne' is not allowed
That's because they go along the coast. Tornadoes can also affect multiple states in the midwest
We've already had several deaths this season
Rolin, the N's don't lead back up to the E
Hurricanes and tornadoes both form in warm, damp air when winds blow into each other from opposite directions. Hurricanes develop over warm, tropical oceans, while tornadoes form over land and are more violent. In a hurricane, the winds swirl around in a spiral at up to 200 mph. In the middle is a calm "eye" 4 - 25 miles wide, surrounded by the worst wind and driving rain. A tornado is a tall, funnel-shaped whirlwind of cloud up to 2,000 feet high. In the middle is an eye of descending air, surrounded by a strong upward current that sucks up or destroys everything in its path. Tornadoes can travel hundreds of miles before they die dow
you can't get tonne though. the second n isn't next to an e
i love google
only rarely & even then it's a narrow line that happens to cross state lines
lol..that'd do it...
*laugh* right on Krys
pedaloed
Krys, you're wonderful
oops
Okay, I have to go - in laws on their way, sorry to beg for my last clue and run. Hope you tornado-prone peeps all stay safe!
Speaking of NOLA, which i just monkey tried, is it ready if it happens again?
sorry sorry sorry
its this new site/...
Clues are up everyone. Problem though, I have 1 too many O words.
O well!
no, new orleans probably isn't ready for another hurricane.
Clues are up where, if you please?
NOLA's in trouble but at least this summer everyone'll get the heck out of town at the first sign of an approaching storm
thank you!
Check 'Friends of Babble'
yeah. that's always been a problem with hurricanes: no one wants to evacuate. hopefully that's been fixed now.
Gotcha! Thank you!
Hell, Houston *couldn't* evacuate. There were literally people stuck in traffic for 24 hours or more, who didn't make it ten miles
last I heard, there's a good chance New York or Philly or DC'll get a hurricane this year
I think I should unplug the computer now. It's getting scary out there.
Watching it from over here it was just amazing how that could happen, worse was hering about the sort of lives that were lost through stark effing illconcern for people, such as the people in the retirement home.
If that's true...There goes Manhatten.
Thank you all very much for your company; I will upgrade to Pro tomorrow. This is lots of fun.
Bye bye Sam!
*manhattan
Australia's been hit by some big cyclones lately I've heard
Yeah they got a massive one through just North of Townsville, destoyed almost every single banana plantation. They cost almost as much as unleaded fuel here at the moment.
Oh no! I have friends there. Haven't talked to them in a while though.
kboy...don;t tell me that - i'll be on long island most of the summer......
ah, nothing to worry about, hurricanes are just big nasty storms unless you live in a city below sea level
Global warming anyone?
Probably.
yes student....we've become a country of cement....cut down those trees!!! right
now's the time to buy summer vacation houses in upper canada
Sort of already did that.
yeah avaneko, what'd you do?
Except its not for summer.
We have a place in Whistler.
whistler?
Just North of Vancouver. Not far up North.
ah I like Vancouver a bunch
It's a cool place. I call it Little Hong Kong.
Extra O word gone from clues now. All fixed up.
I really like the idea of travelling to Canana, if anyone has a floor I can stay on and isn't an axe murderer...
Thank you Lickety!!
LOL student - what about texas and those chain saw murder movies?
well - I just dont really like the idea of waking up in small peices in the chest freezer in someone's aunties garage
ewwwwwww........
mental picture has me frozen.......
Sorry Ren!
aha! O7/44
hi can ya ere me
nite sweet babblers - see you later
Morning dear gang :)
hi sprite! look, i'm babbling again!
bye bye ren!
'night ren!
Sooooo nice to see you, Krys :) Always a pleasure to share the babbling fun with you.
hi
everybody
heya
my main incentive is to see what this new fireworks thing is all about... then i imagine i'll switch back to sudoku
I did the sudoku today in less than no time, it is a real easy one. Now for some longerlasting fun in the words department :)
Morning Sprite!!
Hi mrP! Your giga monster gigant kept me in the habit while I was away!
have you finished!!??
Lol! No, of course not. That's a project for a longer time, for sure!
LOL Sprite!! you are a champion!! Let me know of course, and will post for you!!
what is this? more fun?
Krys!! of course...thank you for your email... getting onto it now!
neat
what is the giga monster thing:
?
It is BAD!
bad in the "it's so addictive i may never get out of bed" way or bad in the "it's so awful I don't want to tell you" way?
The first one. Like "if you value your time, you don't wanna know". But you wanna know, I know ;)
LOL Krys! Sprite is the queen of word puzzles!! It is just a romp in the park for Sprite ;)
bad like this? www.sudoku.org.uk/PDF/Dion_Cube. pdf
oh krys! badder!!
ooh! i want one!
Eeeeeeeks! Now that is a challenge. Yeah, I'd say yours is almost as bad :)
mind you Krys... that is overwhelming to me!! I think it would take about a week with the family to figure that out!!
On a side note: I keep wanting to make adagios. It is driving me bananas.
Sprite did you do the grid names yesterday?? Cliffopa had a list of First Names we found together... there were almost as many names as words on the log!!
No, I didn't know about that. What a shame, lol.
Am I the only one having trouble with almost posting words in the log?
All the time.
Good morning all. Is the grid a joy or a pain today?
I suggested to Dr_G that the cursor would jump back to the Add Word window after posting a message in the chatlog, but he thinks that is 'counter-intuitive'. My intuition is apparently of another kind, lol.
no, we've all been doing it tonight
good...morning/afternoon/evening...
it's only counter-intuitive if you plan to post consecutively
Hello markro. Hard to know what time of day it is with people, isn't it?
and i think counterintuitive is actually one word :P
It's a shame, I thought it was a simple and elegant solution to the problem. I'd say we should not encourage people to post in the chatlog too fast after the last one, lol.
96 words left and struggling!!!
me too!
Just keep on looking, markro, I am at 67 and there are still new ones coming up. Looks like they are really there today, lol.
I can't find any 7 letter words yet, mind you I've not been awake long. Any clue?
de7/44 - to affect hearing
D7 - why you should not go to loud rock concerts
T7 - important to rock climbers
ooh nice. thanks.
Of course- I'd got the 6 letter version of that. Thanks Haz
O7 - a singular occurance
You're welcome.
a noise annoys
well, the O7 is not a noun
Krys I know nothing about rock climbing
you don't know anything technical about rock climbing to understand why this T7 is important :)
i mean, you don't *need* to know...
and load of words fore a singular occurance but obviously not the right one. This game make me feel really thick sometimes
it's an odd word - sort of old-fashioned
you don't need to know, but a bigtoe or two would help! ;)
Don't feel thick - everyone's mind works in a different way and the clue just hasn't registered with you yet. (I haven't got it yet either)
mrpresident - thanks!
Thanks Haz you've made me feel much better
Good - now to keep looking for that word....
Now those were beautiful clues for the 7s! Thanks :)
the fireworks are wicked cool! (thanks - i like more cryptic clues rather than the rebus style) g'night everyone! it's almost 2 AM here!
I just tried a lovely 7 letter word starting with to and ending in F4/8 and it's not a word. It would be very handy for rock climbing too
maisie, you're awfully close!
You are getting warm, Maisie!
And congrats on finishing, Krys!
Got the rock climbing one !!!!
Good job Maisie!!
hello
thade
I think you were close to the O7 as well with that F4.
I agree on the clues, Krys. I don't like the "then an inverted N" kind of clues either, they are like spelling it out more than hinting towards the meaning.
how fitting - the last word i entered means both hello and goodbye.
... that's not an english word. :P
I've now got the on7 - never seen it used with a singular number.
if i close my browser will my fireworks go away, does anyone know?
only one way to find out about that, krys10
I do not know
i mean, will they be there when i come back?
Yes it does Krys!
Got the on 7 too they are similar
phooey. here goes nothing!
Just 25 5 letter words to find now
Ywis, Krys!
I have 82 left. :\ this may take a while
In that case, Maisie, it's time to check your list for plurals, LOL!
FYI yes, they go away :(
Like real fireworks, Krys, enjoy them while they last.
Finished! Such pretty colours!!
*sigh* i suppose so.
Good job, mrP :)
Thanks, Sprite :)
Congratulations mrpresident!
Wow, 3 words that use the X, all of a sudden I see them.
I only have one.
Mine start C, F and G.
I know the F one but not the other two. hm.
hm. didn't know those were words
They must be babblets :)
Another F that is anagram of the first.
I don't think I've found any that use the m yet
I am down to 9 and I haven't found any yet either.
Nice fireworks!
i thought i was super smart by finding 'teflon', but apparently not
story of the night
Thank you Haz!
I just got booted out, logged back on but my tile stats have gone, I tried refreshing but that didn't work. any ideas?
Good moning everyone.
morning all. im done. the fireworks are good.
Maisie, what stats have gone?? the ones on the bottom of the grid??
Took a while but they're back
Oh good!!
has the old babble site gone now, i cant get on it.
cens
Sorry about that- trying silly words now but cursor was in the wrong place
oggy - the old one has now been replaced with the new look one.
I don't understand about the fireworks. I finished the puzzle yesterday, but didn't see any fireworks anywhere? Am I studid or what?
I meant stupid!!!
new to babble - can anyone explai the tile stats
tile stats show how many words start with each tile
rumplestiltskin - the fireworks happen on top of the tile stats on the new babble page. If you were playing on the old site, you wouldn't have seen them, but from now on, it'll be there.
doh! thank you
No, I have played on the new site since it's inception.
The tile stats show how many words come off each tile. If you look at Angelsong's babble resource page (under Friends of Babble at the bottom of the page) you'll find all sorts of explanations about things.
Maybe you need to contact Dr-God - there's probably some technical explanation for it. The fireworks are fun, so make sure you get them!
Time to go!

Dr G, something weird is going on with the "View all chat log entries" function. As it is loading I can see all the entires, but when it is "Done" it is blank of entries.
Do we not speak english in the chat?
Morning Eva :)
You can speak any language I think.
Morning all
Morning all
english is the language of choice for most people though
Love the new look - very impressive
very well :)
thought I missed something!!!
{{{faerie}}}
gape
Hello girls!!
OH NO
you did it again!!
I didn't mean to. Gotta watch where my mouse is.
graaaaah. can't find the aa5.
Yeah, it is a tricky little bugger!! leash that animal!!
LOL faeriekae I think we have all done it
i have 6 n words and its saying that ive only got 3/4
jo_jo - it's because not all of them start on the same n. there's 3 different n tiles
ah thanks, that explains a lot
I'm not even supose to be playing yet. I'm not out of bed. well I am but I think I'll go back to bed and try this over again.
could someone else try going to the entire chat log and see if it happens to you too? i.e. that while it is loading the entries are there, but when it finishes loading they are all gone?
gameboy it is an exasperation !! in the past tense
Eva, I did, and it didn't happen to me... sorry
I'll check it out Eva brb
hmmmmm. I wrote to Dr G.
oh. that makes sense
it does!!??
yeah, the chat log isn't working for me either
Good morning everyone, Dr. God, this is very nice! Thank you
gameboy, do you have a mac?
no. win XP, ff 1.0.7
Eva when I tried it it stopped at 3:49am and thats as far as it goes
I have all the posts with icons
yup-yu can get that far by scrolling down here. But the rest of the log is supposed to be accesible by clicking on the TV screen thing at the far left above, and that isn't working properly. Thanks for trying.
I have to get showered and dressed I'll be back in bit to join and hopefully I won't be entering words into the chat.
Later MrP
Bye Faerie!
sort of like disappearing ink....funny how they're there as it's loading and then poof!
Are you around Dr G?
lons
sorry
Eva! do you see me?
yes-no problem with this log. It's the other one....
the one at http://www.playbabble.com/1138#chat_lo g doesn't load all the way.
exactly!
im actually really struggling now there is the wordy bit down the bottom.
Howdy folks
hi ktf
Is it worth upgrading to pro now that the wondrous upgrades have happened?
not really, all u would be paying for is an icon and a flag
Hmm. I suppose so.
you upgrade and get stats... and you support dr_god for the wonderful puzzle!
Good point!
Good Morning im wonderingif someone could tell me how to print the grid.i would aways print the grid and take it with me to work on at my leisure ,but with the new side when i want to print itcomes out with the grid but minus the letters and 9 pages of printed pages of the stats plus chat.
can I get a clue? al 4/7?
Yvo, haven't heard of this one before, perhaps the new site is different....mmm ... time to go to likety's clues... it has a printable page there.
Yvo I do this too when I'm working. Go into Lickets Babble Clues and print the printable list then write the grid letters onto your page. uses less paper and ink!
student it is a edible weed... al* al**
thank you ill try that
mr p, can i sneak the third letter? i am dying here...
ok student... it is the 1st vowel!!
the word looks like a greek letter.
al 4/7 is like the first greek letter

i have to proctor an exam soon but i'm going to see if i can use someone's laptop and be back during the exam.
In some cultures what I do would be considered normal.
I assume full responsibility for my actions, except the ones that are someone else's fault.
mmm. I do not know you !!
i loved that one lickety!
As I let go of my feelings of guilt, I can get in touch with my Inner Sociopath.

but then i would have maybe got some housework done instead lol
i'm not getting the "ends in negative". any other hints for se5-14?
Anyone got the other 2 7's apart from the on7/44?
I get no personal satisfaction from housework!
opposite of yes game boy

Movieman, de7: to make someone lose their hearing
movieman, yes. to is good for rock climbing
like the mammogram!
whee fireworks
s 5/14 - I wouldn't have thought it's a word either. But given the clues you have there's it's easy to guess.
Jean, I am playing scrabble WHILE I am playing Babble, life is good!
to7/36 is one, movieman
are you talking about ho*******!!! don't use that word on here!! my widow and orphans don't need to be reminded!!

Gooooood morning BabbleOnia! *trying to imitate Robin Williams*
very good impression, daisy :)
*bows*
has anyone else noticed that the rankings page is messed up? as in, no "who's hot" at all? and my score didnt' change from yesterday in the cream of the crop section either...sounds like a bug maybe? or is it just me?
Ok I am back and the kids are asleep!!
Hi Everyone, nice gird - or a tough one?
Grid!
seems hard to me... ^_^; I don't know though
When someone hurts me, forgiveness is cheaper than a lawsuit. But not nearly as gratifying.
Becoming aware of my character defects leads me to the next step -- blaming my parents.
does anyone know any words with x in them?
nose
mrp - did you want to AIM then? have you got AIM?
oh no sorry.....
yes hurshy
fl4 has the x
ah!!! ok thanx
mrp is it same as beginning of your email?
it is in my email to you
oh ok i will go check
help- what is ed 4/6?
how do you find those detailed hints? (ie ed 4/6) Are they on the site somewhere?
ed + addreviation for grades 9 thru 12
everyone getting the "Unresponsive Script" message? Just mailed Dr G about it. It messed up my iTunes when I hit enter just now.... : /
ty- the clues are found on "Lickety's
babbler, do you like your ipod?
Oh I see :D
' pages_ I am so soorry about my typos- it's hard manuvering in a bed!!! LOL
iPod? I don't have one, colby cheese. I meant iTunes on my pc. : )
eh.... itunes.... hmm whatever.....cool... :) does anyone else have an ipod?
Yeah I have one
myriad, do you like it???? what are the good things and the bad things about it?
I love it. It's great at the gym. Umm bad things? I guess short battery life if you're watching video and umm price :D
colby cheese, a couple of friends have iPods. One said the battery life diminished really fast and he only gets like 30 mins if he's lucky. Another friend there isn't that much memory and it can get really boring really fast.
I have the 6 gig, so it doesn't get boring hehe
but for jogging or out and about, they're very handy, they said.
also you can change the music anytime you want if it gets boring right?
wow... 6 gigs!! was that mega expensive?
Myriad - my friend has yet to learn about iTunes... ; )
cool... thanks guys. im looking to buy one, that's why i asked!
yeah :\ Haha but it was worth it
I use it as a hard drive kind of, I don't have any MP3s on my computer, I just plug in my ipod if I want to listen on it
saves space on the computer
yeah, I'm considering getting an mp3 player, but I haven't decided if it's going to be iPod or Sony yet. I hear Sony are a tad better...
The battery is really good as long as you're just listening to music. If you're playing games or watching video you only get like 3 hours
hehe, Myriad, I have loads of music on my pc. I'm considering an external drive...
can you use an ipod as a jump drive??? like... can it hold files like Microsoft Word and Excel, things like that? or only pics and music and videos?
yup, you can put any file on it
yay... that's good
word of caution though - you can't switch it back and forth between a mac and PC computer (if you plan on doing that) It's formatted for one or the other.
hm....

How long has it been like this?
Got the to7...now the on7... I like the new layout - not having to switch between lists and the like.
coupla days

i still cant find the one about rock climbing
Think laterally. Think bodypart
JoJo, it is a compound word... big*** + ho4

The new format is different, but I'm getting used to it. Nice having everything on one page.
Matty, for rockclimbinb take the bottom ine of the grid, proceed from the "to" upward, to the left twice, to the right twice

Maisie, A case, covering, or sheath, such as the pollen sac of an anther, the spore case of a moss, or the outer covering of the pupa of certain insects
Dead easy when you put it like that????

I need the th5,16 and the th6,27, Gwen won't tell me <<<sobs loudly>>>>

Hiya, SCD...... Have you checked out the Babble map yet?
google it matty
i looked but it seemed to be only US
Aren't you in the US hurshy?
SCD - There are direction arrows that you can click on to move the map......
yes but a lot of the people i love most are not :)
ah...i must be directionally challenged.
Weirdness, would not accept ha4/5 at first...
you can also move the map by "hold and drag" method
and you CAN join the map if u r not in US also
im still having trouble with the ad 5 old saying

been getting a bunch of connection errors in the chatbox this morning, doc, as have bex and mrp
i've had a few, as well.
and I, hurshy
got those too doc
I'm looking for an o word. I've had the same problem wth the chat box going hinky. I'd assumed it was aol.
would anyone like to help me with the TH 6/24 and 6/27?
matty, it's an oh4/6
bex, th6/27, its a similar spelling to 'things'
no matty...for ONCE, aohell is not at fault
I've been having trouble with my word list loading, despite repeated efforts to refresh, log out/in, etc. I emailed Dr._God a few minutes ago. The weird thing is I can type in new words, and if I type a word I did previously, it lets me know.
Any errors in the past 30 mins were probably caused by me. I apologize.
I've been running the "update rankings" script several times trying to figure out why the "Who's Hot" list isn't showing up.
And it eats up server resources
All is well now, however
It's okay, DrG... you're allowed one mistake every 7 days :). My word list is still not loading, however...
ah that explains the 'slowing down' for adding words :)
ch1212- The server is still breathing hard. Give in a minute or two to catch back up. :)
okay!
Dr G, just now the game entered the word te 4/4 twice
No, not that one (on4) - it's the single word using the o in the middle of the board. I'm stumpted
Refresh your page, inge, and let me know if the duplicate goes away
gone, gone, gone
thong
sorry guys, now I have done it too
thens
its gettin annoying now, 65 words left and my brains gone -blank-
and then...there were three. I just added a new page to the online resources. Dr.G, if I've made mistakes, I will happily correct them if you will let me know.
oh4?
Dr_God? Still getting the message that says my word list not loading and to contact you. I did refresh and then log out/in first.
oh + past tense
OH! :)
ch1212- Give your browser another couple kicks in the pants, and see if things don't clear up.
LOL
can anyone help with the 6 letter words?
(Rocky Theme comes up) Dah dah daaa! YES! Thanks, Dr_G!
woohoo its fixed!!!
Hurrah! I'm done! de 6 = de 4 plus 2 to make de 4 (de 7 is the plural)
what map do you people talk about?
fa 6 is the plural of fa5--a diamond has many fa****
gl 6 is the plural of gl 5--think French fruit or ice
ha 6 builds on ha 4--ida person were made a saint he would be ha****
hi everyone.
hi everyone.
Any help with thr E on the 2nd from bottom row I can only find one word from that
Inge! it's http://www.frappr.com/babble
logged in today and got a bit of a shock - when did the layout all change?
It shows where all us Babblers are. We put in the locations ourselves.
I don't often comment on here but wanted to say how much I have enjoyed the new-look site. So much more 'user-friendly'
And my flag has disappeared :(
Maisie, go dtraight up from that e for an exclamation
e + th5, minus the vowel on the end
Very Shakesperian TY
th*** are the only two I have
I'm stuck - darn it. Needing 75. I can see a surrender in the cards.
i think im going to call it a day soon
sonce
Doggone it - sorry
Damn. Now *that* was a doozy! The server threw a hissy fit, so I had to lay the smack down pretty hard.
lol
Good to know it was the server. I couldnt get back to the game. Kept saying error.
finished!!! the whole site crashed just as i was about to type my last word in!
Whew! Just as I was trying to log in. Good smack, Dr_God!
I HAVE 7 WORDS LEFT AND NONE OF THEM ARE SHOWING UP ON MY LIST
It's telling me I've already used a word that I have not.
KenTropic- Refresh the page, and it should appear
I HAVE REFRESHED ABOUT 10 TIMES...STILL DOESNT SHOW
Thanks!
Ouwachita- If you have 7 words left, it means you haven't found them, so they shouldn't show up on your Word List
It's showing a bunch of words that I have not entered yet.
I MEAN THE ONES I DO HAVE ARENT SHOWING UP
thanks TNdasiy, for a whole I thought I would never get back to the grid.
nevermind - I figured it out.
my word list also not showing - says it's loading
SAME HERE HURSHY...TELLS ME ONLY 7 LEFT, BUT 0 PTS
Good morning -- I see that the beta site has now become the permanent site -- like it or leave it!

inge: the link for the map is on the Resource page under Babble links :)
I think this version will make it quicker to find all the words once the bugs are ironed out.
Stidmama - REFRESH!!!!!
my ecperience so far has been that it's a lot easier to chat... but more distracting for finding words....
I like this version...good being able to see the grid, stats and words altogether
LOL that's better, movieman! from youth to maturity in one bound!
but I have to rem#ember to get out of the chat box before I type words lol

also... are the stats actually correct? the system shows 9 s words, but it's accepted 10 s words from me so far...
oops sorry my clue for the aa.....
ah, yes.
thanks
hmmm, there's a show profile checkbox, I'll try that and see what happens....
J...there are 2 s's in the grid
that seems to have done it :)
aha! and 2 e's
i'm sorry. 3 e's!
:-) ylleria -- now all you need is a teacup... *blush* forgot to change my icon! brb
okay, that should have done it.... though it's not my own work, it suits my personality! refresh
there we go! 100 words... :-) hurshy -- decided to try to do this one without the list today... how hard will it be?
i dunno stidmama
i am so completely drained my brain is just about gone
so i'm finding it harder than i otherwise would, probably
i am sorry -- anything I can do to help? you're not ill again, are you?
no, i'm not ill, just been a very crazy week.
ah. did Spring fever hit your school too? my kids sure had it, and my mother (first grade teacher) had a tough week also.
i guess. but also this week was the AP calculus exam, and then the SAT today
hello all and happy weekend!
blech. that's a lot in a short time.
thats me finished
hi blueskies!
YAY sha!
hi blue, congrats sha
In the Tile Stats panel, is it listing the amount of words you found that begin with that letter/the number of words there are that begin with that letter?
yes wizard
thanks. I knew that's what it probably was, but I just wanted to be sure.
bye all see u tomorrow
np :)
bye sha!
whee! I got the de 7! (my first seven....)
wow, freaky stidmama, me too, right about the same time.
ooooh... sharing brainwaves again... ;-)
:)
*puts out a bowl of fruit salad and waits quietly in the bushes*
*sneak sneak* what? no mini marshmallows?!?
shhh....im trying to catch a hurshy!
*caught*
*oops. sorry*
haha! got her! heres your marshmallows stid!
lol scribble, now let me down from this net up in the trees.
*grabs for marshmallows and retreats to safety*
oh....right...sorry! :)
well, I am up to 107 words (ten since I logged back in) and the clouds are starting to roll in. Must get outside and get those 6 dahlias planted before it rains. bbl ((all))
how are you scribble?
c-ya stid! im fine hursh...how about you?
I've been unable to scroll back to read earlier chat/hints. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks.
i've been better
kat - yes, but you can read the entire chat log using the button up in the top right - unless you're in firefox - there is a bug doc is working on
aww...whats wrong hurshy? ((hurshy))
just been a long week i guess scribble ((scribble))
but you cheered me up with your fruit salad trap :)
Tried the button while using Netscape..nothing happened. I'm now in Firefox, and can't even get the puzzle to load. Guess there's bound to be a few glitches for a few days. Thanks
hehe. but my fruit salad isnt nearly as ggod as yours, hursh.
what?
i don't think doc g intends you to be able to scroll back any further in this box at any point in the future, though, kat - that aspect is not a bug.
scribble - what makes you think that?
besides - it was the humor of the trap that cheered me up :)
is it just me or is this puzzle hard?
it seems quite easy, a lot of plurals
hi hurshy ---------- hi dear all. Just woke up.
hi mab :)
lucky you!
hey mab! :)
then
hi scribble
oops sorry
happens to most of us scribble
hens
hens
dangit!!!! just slap me!
it's ok scribble, it's not like anyone would have had trouble finding those :)
yeah i know its just annoying.
i don't find it a problem so far because i am always looking at whatever i intend to type in, and if i see nothing coming up in the word box, i realize i'm not in the right place.
Hi Hurshy, buddy! I need very few words (he,he), which are stumping me. The last pe 6/24 is one. Can you help?
good idea.

Na also endlich eine ehrliche Antwort! Ich suche weiter selbst.

in 10 hours?
When the puzzle is done
a clue for the aa?
lick the word list of a person who gets them all

57 words left!
I don't recommend licking your screen. :P
haha

cybernan - to grab
cybernan - to grab
thanks again -- another easy one missed!
haha i have 165 left.
hi, Hazel; and yes, definitely.....this page has been acting up for me earlier too; i've sometimes had to reload it repeatedly, before the problem was corrected, or even wait a little while, then try again.....a bit aggravating, for sure! :-/
It's a peculiar looking word, though.
do 5/14?
do5/14 - old English way of expressing an action
i should probably stick to boggle.
Mikey - I should probably try to get this finished as soon as possible to avoid being thrown off again!
thanks, haz -- just not seeing all these common ones today for some reason.
bibi
bye
Not to worry, cybernan - at least they're easier to clue than crwth or senryu!
Thank you , mommamery, that was the one I needed.
anybody who can drop a hint *or two*??
ja, Hazel; might be a very good idea, indeed! :-/
ed 4/6? --- i thought I had monkeyed everything!
al5/10 and al5/12 anyone
die meisten geben nicht zu, dass sie das Wort nicht haben und geben verkehrte Stichwoerter.
al 5/12: hello/goodbye in Hawaii
funkstille, waehrend ich nach den letzten 5 suche.
al 5/10: by yourself
thanks cybernan
al 5:10 has something to do with be excluded
ed4/6 - add initial of Prince William's brother, and pluralise
*change be to being
thanks haz
first gl 5/16?
thanx haz
Never mind -- just spotted them!
ermm 99 words left,

this game is mean.
pray tell, how can i get to see yesterday's puzzle
i agree silvertiger
archives
u go to Archives

There are more than one using the x

Not there yet, cybernan, sorry.

Thank you buzzybee.

yes
ach ja, es tut mir Leid, Inge; ich werde jetzt ruhig! :-/ *denkend.....und denkend.....und kratzend mein Kopf!* :-P
i hate these clues... they make no sense
Inge - are you looking for a particular word?
ziemlich schwierig
ty buzzy
Ive got the o/7 and the d/7 any clues for the last 7 letter
which clues, silvertiger?
all of them
to7/36 - especially useful when rock-climbing
Thanks for the offer Haz, I need two sh words, but I will look myself a bit longer.
That's okay.
thanx Haz
fa4/12 anyone
It's an anagram of the fl4/12
anagram of the fl 4,12
how about the pe6,24?
thanks another new word for me
peri--and then ca 4/10 will be like it
aha, one I forgot to enter also has a plural. Moment of silence please for my fireworks!
Finished!! -- just in time to make lunch!
YAY nan! way to go!
pe6/24 - a holiday mode of transport (pe5 plus a vowel)
und ja, 'Silbernertiger'; ich stimme mit dich ueberein! :-/
Thanks for all the help, everyone :)
*gasp of awe* YAY inge!
Congratulations cybernan and inge!
^5 Inge
thanks haz
Haz -- where do they use that mode of transportation?
im so lost with the transportation clue
This new layout is awesome
I think it's maybe an exaggeration to call it transportation. Often seen at holiday resorts in the Med etc - used to go up and down beaches and get sunburnt in.
In the water, rather than on land!
Oh -- I think I know what it is! :-) used them a couple times myself, but we don't call it that here (of course)
after I log in, I cannot see chat log ????
Now I will try once again. Where do I find teh resources page for the map?
georgia -- what you have on wheeled but not motorized vehicles... plus a round vowel.
Inge, you might have to look back in the chat log for details - I didn't note it down.
Afternoon. How's everyone doing?
I know the map is www.frappr.com/babble, it's probably mentioned on Angelsongs pages somewhere, too
wassup, wassup?
Hi wassup! Is it raining there yet? It's really threatening here...
good evening, wassup.....wassup? ;-)
and I did get my last six dahlias planted! :-)
Stidmama? :-o Stidmama!!! :-)
Guten Abend, Mikey! wie geht's?
{{{Mikey}}}
It's not raining, but it's UGLY! We just got back from the farmer's market though. The rain held out for us
wassup scribble? :)
oh -- the market *grimace* need to do that later, too, fortunately, ours is mostly under cover.
55 words left!
so close yet so far away
go georgiaj go!
nothin much just gettin ready for a piano recital.
there wasn't much in the way of produce, but we got some asparagus and local honey. (good for these dang hay fever allergies)
stidmama I tried that frappr page several times earier. I will try again, I thought I had the wrong link.
I have 72 left, and not getting any closer sitting here chatting! *wondering why...;-)*
scribble, you play piano?
yeah
inge -- I can't get it to work in firefox, have to use IE to see it from my machine -- it won't load the images for me in firefox
ja, Stidmama; mir geht's soweit ganz gut, danke.....und dir? :-)
what is 'frapper'?
i never could play an instrument. I "played" clarinet for 6 years in junior high and highschool. I always hated it. maybe that's why i was so bad... :)
whoa mikey! was that german?
es geht uns gut, danke. Und dein familie? Lucky sagt "bark bark" mit Fritz. LOL
well ja, wassup; what else would you expect from me, hmm? (refer to my country flag!) :-P
i tried the viola last year but hated my teacher, so ended up quitting that. but i LOVE the piano. ive been taking lessons for 5 years.
frappr.com/babble is a map we can put little markers on so we can see where people are. It's pretty neat!
I played clarinet all through high school.. I loved it. Still do!
oh...guess that makes sense. stid, you understand him? *amazed*
well, stidmama, it says no matchcng documents were found. Just read your last post. And I do have firefox, so maybe I cant get there, since I am computer illiterate.
I understand him fine, wassup -- not sure he can understand my mangling of it, though! LOL
that's cool scribble.
it would be cooler without recitals. :S
i know the slightest bit of french, but can't speak it. just understand when it's written sometimes.
inge, the full address I just copied from my browser is (just in case i got it wrong): http://www.frappr.com/babble
lachend aus laut, Stidmama!!! :-P
yeah recitals stink, i been there scribble
Well, I just finished the puzzle and the tiles square turned black with the close link to hit. I did that and still didn't get any fireworks. Whassup?????
scribble -- the recitals will get easier and more fun over time -- it's your chance to show off what you're learned... and for your parents to be overly proud of you. ;-) speaking as a parent, of course!
that's my name, don't wear it out
the worst part of recitals is having to listen to everyone else :)
what's so amazing, wassup? various people learn and know various things.....such as languages, etc! ;-)
oh -rumplestiltskin! too bad! don't know what happened, but... ....>>>>^^^^FIREWORKS^^^^<<<<. ...
yeah just wish i knew my pieces a little better.
lol, wassup; i really really hope for your sake, that's *not* your name? ;-)
Should I NOT click on close?
I'm on the map now!
^*^*^*^FIREWORKS^*^*^*^ for rumpelstiltskin!!!
no wassup's real name is weoriuewirsdlkfhds.... LOL
*rushing off to see Jera on the map*
whooohooo!!!
^*^*^*^FIREWORKS^*^*^*^ for rumpelstiltskin!!!
'lal' wieder, Stidmama! :-P
mikey, i know it's just that in the us, german isn't common. it's cool. my husband is of german descent and we are planning to go to germany when our kids are old enough.
and no, i'm sarah. :)
Thanks Mikey. I have some good friends who lived in Germany for many years. He was head of the German Opera Company and she was principal of a high school for American military personnel's children.
ja, scribble; i've had to participate in many dance (ballet) and vocal recitals while growing up.....lots of 'fun', aren't they? :-P
oh ja; nice, rumplestiltskin.....what part?
oh yeah loads of fun. *NOT*
Think I can finish 28 words in 30 minutes? Need to go do last minute stuff before the party...
I think it was near the Black Forest
Is the party on - rain stayed away, Jera?
ach; my cat's horking up a hairball!!! :-P
Too much information.....
LOL!!
mikey, my dogs are licking eachother's ears... ew
wassup, I studied German in high school and college-- one of my grandmothers was German. I also studied other languages, but don't really speak any of them anymore... can read a bit, but only with a dictionary in hand! LOL
stid, i can read my shampoo bottle. :) (the french part)
Dr G - I can see chat box when I first come on, but after log on, get word list but no chat - ? I feel very alone!
once
I wonder how all our friends in Texas did last night? when I went to sleep, a big storm was just coming in.... renfield? want to give a report?
bye all! c-ya later. and good luck!
bye scribble :)
bye scribble have fun
bye scribble, enjoy!
Mr. P, why don't I get fireworks?????
stid...we got a little rain........that's all for us....
that's not too bad -- I hope the others were okay, too. *i really hate big windy loud storms*
Yes, Haz simply glorious! The girls are camping out tonight, should be a blast! Part of the festivities is putting up the tent. I'm staying a safe distance away & taking pictures, LOL
Oh, that's good to hear as you were beginning to think it would be her next birthday before you would have the party. I hope they all have a great time!
Oh, that's good to hear as you were beginning to think it would be her next birthday before you would have the party. I hope they all have a great time!
we have a stout breeze...that's all right now
Sorry - can't get the hang of this enter thing at all. Hit it once... hit it once.
I'm sure they will... they always seem to manage! I have a great group of Girls!
rumplestiltskin (and lynxxx)-- I know that not all the bugs are worked out. Dr. G appears to not be online at the moment. Do you want to email him directly? I think there's a link at the bottom of the page... go to the become a friend of babble place, I think.
Need help with pe6/24, please?
well, we're going to head out to do our shopping before the rain. bbl {{all}}
later stid
pe6/24 European beach transport (pe 5 as in bike plus a vowel)
Learn something new every day... thanks, Haz!
You're welcome, Jera.
Mikey
How is it there are zero words using x?
Whoops! forgot the message Haben Sie einen guten Tag gut tschüs
because very few words start with X
No words begin with x but there are several using it.
sorry, I meant very few in the English language, not very few in the puzzle. I'll stop talking now. :)
good evening everyone:)
good evening jean, and Wizard - we knew what you meant!
Hello Jean1953, easy puzzle today
yes not too bad at the moment although I never seem to finish it
this is easy?
i feel really stupid.
this is easier than yesterday. don't feel stupid. it's hard for me and i do it every day!
Easier than some but with complications in places. Silvertiger, how long have you been playing babble?
erm, jus started today
Ah! Welcome, first of all. Then, please be assured that you are not stupid. Many of the words are not in common usage. It becomes easier with practice and also with using all the helps available.
thanks. what help?
hey silvertiger you will get hooked with this game, all of my family now play it.
It took me a long time to finish my first puzzle so don't feel bad. If you look under 'Friends of Babble' at the bottom of the page, there is a page 'Angelsong's babble resource page'. That gives lots of information. Then, also under Friends of Babble, Lickety's babble clues gives you a list of the second letter and values of the words.
oh...
if I ever complete it I think I will throw a house party lol
haha
Lots of people have been doing babble for a long time and they get used to using strange words. Please just enjoy the game.
i feel so accomplished when i finish a puzzle. :) Like "ah, now what can I conquer".
peaf
pead
ok, a word that starts with AA?
I really enjoy it haz it keeps the brain cells ticking over:)
the only one i know is aardvark..
sorry. wrong box. I suck.
Hi All - I got fireworks again. Sleep now I think!
I usually look round and think 'Help, I've got to catch up'
good, they weren't words anyway. :)
How is it there are no words for x?
aa5/14 - a past tense expression of delight or surprise.
Sorry about that, my browser made it look like I didn't post before.
and what does 5/14 mean?
I didn't realize the tile stats were for word beginnings alone.
it's ok allen.
it means the number of letters and how many you can score with it silver
oh... ok
5 words 14 points, single score for 4 letters, double for 5 letters, triple for six letters...etc
this is worse than calculus
i am new and not very good either.
Today there are 181 words & 1907 pts
hey tiger...do like me....count on your fingers! lol
Whoo-hoo!
yeh, id definitely rather be dealing with derivatives...
this is my third game and finally getting the hang of it
*happy dance of doneness*
or do like me and just type nonsense until you end up with words!
yay jera
Well done Jera!
haha
Well done, Jera - record time!
wow... ok
Does anyone need help real quick before I go make a watermelon shaped cake?
im still stuck on the AA word.
I'm glad this is the kind of online community where people congratulate one another for winning. Most internet communities are becoming worse...
and what about the oh 4/6? i'm not sure it's really there.
Wow! Just logged in ... when did Dr._God make the format change? I've only missed a couple days!
You will breathe a sigh of relief when you find it!
People oohed and aa*** at the new baby.
but its 5 letters?
oh...
ive been looking on the wrong side.
past tense makes it long enough
stupid ed.
hah... yeh.
oh4/6 - much like the aa one
Hey luvmypom... it was last Wednesday...
silver. that's my biggest challenge in this game. I get stuck in a corner and forget that you can go any direction you want and that it doesn't have to start with the letter i'm trying, maybe there's another one on the board... :)
thanks :)
Silvertiger --- one of these days I will make t-shirts with some of the more popular Babble slogans -- like "I should have used the OTHER A! "
haha
{{{GreyWoulf}}}
haz, i swear to you on a stack of bibles...i tried that. ok, maybe i didn't...
thanks
Thanks Jera. It looks great!
Did you have a good Beltane?
or "Note to self: Pluralise EVERYTHING!"
Even if there is no s in the grid. Try anyway.
{{**Jera**}} -- yes it was quiet but peaceful
GW you should do that for when we have our convention in DC... someday...
haha haz. i do all the time. or I'll ad ed to a word that can't be past tense and it'll take it!
Well, I guess no more procrastinating... of to make the watermelon cake... I hate watermelon...
me too jera
Sometimes I enter a word and then work out HOW it's possible.
Another one is "I should have hooked to the left!"
oh
haha yeh...
Hey GW long time no see
u know, i feel accomplished: ive found more words than there are left.
doing better than me! i've still got 108 left.
lol silvertiger, I only have 52 words
fond
aww really?
But whenever you are stuck, or just want some distraction, silvertiger -- that is where we come in, you can always ask us for assistance -- even if we can't help we can at least make you laugh :)
yep... clearly
maybe once i get an education i'll know some words
sorry about that wrong box LOL
{{(*shorty*)}} -- yeah -- I don't get on during the day much anymore
sorry, when I said I had 52 words I meant I only had 52 words that I found, i have 129 left.
Well, while Jera makes her watermelon cake, I must go and make dessert for tomorrow's lunch. Keep going silvertiger - we'll get you hooked yet! (We're on commission from Dr_God)
haha
man, who's gonna make me dessert?
im hungry.
I am not home I'm at a hotel bored to death so I thought Id get on babble
The thing that is driving me crazy right now is that I don't have any of the 7's yet and I only have 76 left to find
oh shorty...i wish i was in a hotel. Escape from the kids...aaahhh.
Oh no my kid is with me LOL
oh, nevermind... :)
well theres only 3 sevens... so
he was elected to mid ams for hockey so thats why were here
wow... im slow, i just found a really simple word
silver -- I usually manage to locate one of the longer words w/o assistance by now -- but today it just isn't happening
well that's cool at least. i'm in the opposite situation. my hubby's away for the weekend and i'm stuck at home with the kids, 4 & 5 with crappy weather...babble for me!
Ha! anyone else get 13/80 for entering the first ha/ word?
and once again it's the vowels that are eluding me. gr. why don't i know more words that start with a, e and o?
no, but nicely done jeffer... :)
aeon isnt used.
Yay! Thanks to my mommy, I'm all done before I go to work!!
hi knutmeg!
have a good night!
i'm missing one word from the first t. argh!
the score is obviously wrong - i wonder about my word??? Anybody else get funnies on their list? and ty wassup. lol
knutmeg -- I sent you a yahoo buddy request last night -- did it make it to you? -- cos I show it is still pending
hey GreyWoulf -- been away for a time good seeing you again
a few weeks ago i was getting every word i entered (not real ones) and it would give me a score. completely random. i refreshed and they disappeared. too bad. I was kicking butt!
haha
u were kicking indecipherable butt...
bye for now - half way there - but all by myself as I cant see the chat!
so you're saying don't refresh !
yeah! don't refresh, you'll be at the top of the rankings by tonight!
whoo hoo
Always great to be babbling, pbr -- having to juggle between work, family, and Babble is a frustrating but necessary evil
how is your little one doing? Grey Woulf
i have three O words, but it says i only made one...
Seb is doing fine -- he actually slept all the way through the night last night!
there are 2 o's on the board
WHOO HOOO!!! Just completed the puzzle! Thank you for your help! Blessings to you all....
yep
but i found three... and for both Os it says 0/1 and 1/5
congratulations jainniah
try refreshing silver. sometimes things get stuck
ohad
great job americana.
Ty, Jean!! I am a Jean, too!
o there u go
sorry, I typed that in the wrong box :)
Good news about Seb. I have a grand nephew who was born Wed--seems as though he was contaminated during the c-section and contracted a blood infection -- hopefully he will be released within a week.
hello to another jean there was one in earlier when i popped in
any clues on the 7's? I am not finding them at all.
oh my, pbr -- positive energies will be sent your way for a rapid recovery I just wish I could rely on Seb sleeping so well again -- he's still too young to pull a repeat tonight
on 7
to7 and de 7
to7- to get a
toget a "foot lock on"
de 7 a very loud noise will do this to you
sorry
on 7 sort of unique
thanks, got the de, now will try to find the others...
See, that de is one of the ones I need a t-shirt for -- someone earlier described it as building on a de4 and I NEVER looked at the top D!! Pass the fish please *smack*
on7- take the first number and count- that's the best clue I can come up with - it's ususally used with bigger numbers- three**** for example
on 7 and to 7 rhyme. their last three letters are the same and mean the opposite of young.
Buzzy and jaianniah -- thanks that got them for me!!
That helped me out too...thanks bunches...
se 5,14?
wow, nice new layout. i haven't been on in about a week. are these changes permanent or a promotion?
I am looking forward to seeing how many of our fellow Babblers choose to register over at the frappr.com map -- so far it is confirming my suspicion that men make up the minority here in Babblonia :)
it's a weird word- take a word that means ocean, drop the last vowel, then take the word "ignore" and drop the first and last letters of that and put them together....a wild clue, indeed....
se5/14 a notational sign in music
ed4/6?
thanks
ed4/6 use quiet vowel plus plural
I meant quiet consonant
I am stuck on the last pe6/24? hlp ty
thanks jeewhiz. i got it anyway. :)
very helpful
pe6/24 impeach bush so we get fewer wars and more of these
Hey GW I just got back into town. What is the map thing of which you speak?
haha...
Just popping back in to say hi & catch my breath... all is ready to party but I'm not the greeter!
see? everyone hates bush... but they were all complaining when clinton was getting blowjobs
http://www.frappr.com/babble
bsg75 I have that one -- it is the last one I don't have of pe6/24
bsg, is that the first pe6 or the last?
hi Jera!!
hi Jera!! flag
hi Jera!!
not every one hates President Bush
crap I used a word in the chat. Sorry:-((\
oh... well i do
It's okay musicmom, next time, make it one that we need....:)
Thanks GW I'll head over there and look.
anybody else finding it a bit delayed today? or should I just refresh?
LOL Jee
LOL Jee
{(*musicmom*)} -- it's a site where people from a group can register there location and a pointer shows up on the map -- Dr_God set up the account and 20 people have signed up and men are out numbered 3 to 1!
Yes BB I'm delaying here too.
there, i'm on frapple now
Hi all, the sites been like treacle on and off all day
found that missing pe6, add a vowel to the preceding word.
pe6 seen at the beach a bike?
hmm dothade isnt a word
Dr_God has been doing a lot of tweaking and maintenance today as bugs that the beta didn't catch keep cropping up -- thus the slow response
down to 6 left!
I have 122 left :(
77
and im still upset about dethade
38 words left!!!
the
74 left for me
how come i dont get an american flag?
because you're not a pro member
62 left here
oh.
HI everyone, it is a beautiful day here in PA
billmster -- thx -- never heard of the word, but it works!
i feel deamericanized
30 more to go
yeh? its a breezy day here in Jersey..
you have to pay $15, and then you can get a friends list, flag, profile, icon, etc.
heh, my americanese ness isnt worth 15 bucks.. i'll just pretend i have one
I added mine. Sorry - I'm another girl!
61 left for me
You also get some kind of stats panel that helps you with the game, I think. I'm not sure, though.
MM -- no need for apologies -- I prefer the company myself ;)
I just started - have only entered 58. Have to do this one on my own. BGL is traveling back to PA today.
the other benefit of being pro is you get the tile and word stats panels that yo uare sing at the moment. Dr-G has left them there for now but will be shutting them down to no pro in a week or 2
my last two!
hi
oh
hi da
guess i'll be quitting in a week or 2
th 6,27? or 5,16? they're driving me buggy!
i am new
BGL and I were discussing the merits of Pro play this week. After playing on my pro account last week I have her convinced it is definitely worth it.
if all else fails i could always go back to boggle
back again, to *try* and finish! :-P
Hi Mikey! I missed you all this week.
silver - you can always look at lickety's site
yeh
Also, the cost is very inexpensive when you consider that it helps Dr_God keep the site available period
Absolutey GW --- for the amount of time I spend here it is a major bargain!
wassup do u play puzzle
hey renfield
i couldn't believe how cheap it was to become a pro!
hey pbr - hows by you?
ga5/15 and ga5/24 anyone?
Musicmom... what are YOU doing here? Glad I read my e-mail before coming to this site or I would ahve been very confused!
LOL I didn't think you would be home yet. Now you know I've been talking about you.
found the ga5/24 by accident, the x is in it
did you guys have a good trip back?
ga5/24 - take yr ga4/6 and then use the tile value to work out the last letter (highest scoring)
peri - do tell!
i can't see the 1st ha 4/8, anyone
ACtually I didn't, I really need to type my sermon... We did have a good trip - no stops so it took us 6 hours flat.
found the ga5/16 by monkeytyping
aw, Musicmom; i've missed you, too! :-)
Hannah left her toothbrush at J's parents
th 5,16 anyone?
Yeah - I'm only here for about 15 more minutes. I have to clean up some and get ready. We're watching parker tonight.
renfield -- with me, great. shared with GW a bit ago that my grand nephew got off to a rough start, but am confident the little guy will be OK also. had been gone about a week so the new site was welcomed to me
Pro is well worth the tiny amount of money
5/16 yeh
no..
the second one
It's Sarah's toothbrush. I gave her another.
they can just throw that one away.
PBR - sorry to hear about the rough start. Glad to know things are going to be better.
first ga4/7 can't see it
i love that we no longer need to scroll up and down w/ the words and the grid!
me too
Me too Ren!
and ja, Saffire; it's super cheap to register a pro account here.....and only a one time fee, too.....so i can't understand why everyone doesn't do that, since it has distinct advantages! ;-)
sorry da, didn't mean to ignore. I was helping my son with something. Yes, I'm playing the puzzle and welcome to babble!
OKay, Sarah's toothbrush... well, too many words for me today. I just stopped by to see the new format. Now back the sermon before the Derby...
Bye BGL ---- talk to you later.
I am happy that even though there is a delay, the words entered eventually catch up
Renny? :-/
mikey!!!!!!
nevermind found the ga4
Okay I really need to do some other things right now. Be back later.
and it helps tokeep the site going! bargain for the hours of pleasure it gives!
oh, ok; that's better, Renny.....sheesh; you were chatting all around me there, so i wondered why you weren't saying 'hi' since i slipped back in? :-P
(((((((((((((Renny))))))))))))) :-)
so long, musicmom
((((MIKEY)))))
((**Mikey**))
exactly, Saffire! ;-)
{{**Renny**}}
((((WOLFIE)))
(((((((((((((GreyWoulf)))))))))))))
lol
hey! we really get fireworks now!!!
ha4/8 and ha5/14 anyone?
soooo cool!
i feel like the waltons!
So where's Johnboy?!
is that right, Renny Sue? ;-)
i think i probably came in just after someone explained this, but what ARE the advantages of goinf pro? i've looked everywhere on the site and can't find an explanation (Dr_god, you should work on that! I'd probably have bought in a hearbeat if I could have just found what it is I'm buying exactly)
ha4/8
does anyone know the 'c' words?
ha4/8 is the middle of a whole.
ha4,8 used a double vowel
that's right mikey joe
ha4/8 divide into two
jee whiz, do you have the other ha 4/8? I can't figure it out
ach; Mikey Joe? lol.....actually, Renny.....my middle name *does* begin with a 'J'.....but it's *not* 'Joe' or 'Joseph'! :-P
ha 5,14 is Of or relating to the deepest regions of the ocean
just found it...use the same vowel in the middle twice
If you go pro, you'll get an online profile, a country flag, an icon, a special stats panel, etc.
JeeWhiz, have that one, need the other ha4/8 please
thanks, wizard!
h vowel vowel cons!
hmmmm mikey.....whilst that be'ath james
maybe sounds like the other ha
thanks everyone found it
jo - i know the c words
no, Renny; it's not 'James' either.....
do you have a spare to share Renfield?
ren, you may know the c words but do you know the eggman?
need help with ha5/14
coo coo cacho
hmmmmm mikey......willst that be' ath jason
Hello Musicmom, you are back!!!
greywoulf, at least use words in the grid.
gw, are we doing sargeant pepper?
lol gw!
lol wolfie!
lol; no Renny.....it's not 'Jason' either! :-P
Mikey -- how biblical is you middle name? Could it be Jeremiah?
seriously. what the heck is up with the 1st ha 4/8? I have the one that means to divide something. what's the other please??????
could ir be jeremy?
oh, i only have the dividing 4/8
jerome?
h + first letter x 2 + f
ha 4/8 -- try putting in a double vowel
1st ha 4/8 has a double vowel
bless you both.
anyone have the ha5/14, clues appreciated
how about that aa5?
ja, Inge; sie hat zurueckgekommen! :-D
oohed and aa***
oh.....
sorry peri, i need it too
*does a little happy dance*....Musicmom is back; Musicmom is back!!! ;-)
ha 5/14 - I ha* a farm but Weird ** Yankovich took it away
ugh 34 words left and no fresh luck
ch1212! That was awesome!
haha, that was cute.
lol; no wassup, it's not 'Jerome', nor 'Jeremey' either.....nor 'Jeremiah', Woulf.....although ja, it is a rather 'Bilblical' sort of name! ;-)
oh stinko - i missing a "s" word...
ty wassup :)
and before you ask, no; it's also not 'Joel' :-P
ch1212, thanks so much
joshua
does anyone have any 'c' words? i cant find the last two
joshia
jorge? jose? juan? jesus?
but.....it's also the name of a place, and a river :-)
jael
lol, no; none of those, wassup :-P
jerusalem
jericho
juarez
no, no, no; none of those are correct either, sorry!
jordan?
'Jo____'
jordan?
what is the second letter?
i'm thinking south of the border...can you tell? ole!
Jordan
i think fmitch got it!
sorry, I didn;t know fmitch already said that
*wonders what to award to the 1st person to guess it correctly?*
But musicmom must be strolling in her garden. She isnt answering my post.
oh, SummerBreeze; sehr gut!!! :-D
Michael Jordan.
although, did Fmitch have it first?
Is that yes?
ja
Nice name :)
Fmitch had it first
ja, wassup; only my parents knew nothing about that other 'Michael Jordan' when they named me.....and 'Jordan' is my middle name, not my surname! :-P
LOL
And this Michael Jordan is not even into sports!!!
Yeah, I had a friend in elementary school who was Michael Jackson and it was his surname. You can imagine his childhood... Michael Jordan is a good name and the famous one is a good guy...
my brother-in-law is Michael Jackson, although Jackson is his middle name
lol; that's right, Inge! ;-) i'm an 'artsy fartsy' all the way :-P
50 left to find, taking another break
59 words left to find and i cant see any
both ho 5/12 elude hint?
I gotta go folks -- Kristianna is dragging me towards the door to go play outside --- I'll be back later :)
I need to take my kids somewhere. they're awake from their nap and I promised to take them somewhere fun.
see you all later I hope
I'm upgrading to pro now
ja, but i don't share his surname, wassup; that's only my middle name ;-)
later wolf
ho 5/12 - The Germans wear lederho***
Although an arguement could be made that ballet is more athletic than team sports
good idea, Wizard ;-)
ho 5/12 is the plural of the preceding ho4/5, to whittle or sharpen
just finished the grid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ho 5/12 - likes sharpens a knife
danke ch1212!
did you see your fireworks pbr?????
Congratulations for pbr!
well yes, Inge; i wholeheartedly agree that it is, indeed.....but i'm not into team sports; i do enjoy and appreciate watching gymnastics, though.....and ice dance, etc.
yeah, the fireworks are kewl!!
I would say they are the most similar to ballet anyway.
thanks renfield should really hace found that one!
have
jeffer - having 2 ho's in different areas threw me off to day.......
oh just saw your clue benda ty me too, ren ( i think)
Mikey, I hope we didnt scare away your friend Mary yesterday. The discussion was fast and furious and little attention was paid to her arrival in babbleland
no problem jeffer...i
wow... an hour later ive only done 5 more
silver...you must be really laid back :D)
no, just clueless
Does the :Who's Online" list ever shrink? We are up to 179. Two days ago it was in the 20's. are there 179 perssonsosn listening in?
i've been trying to change my picture and have been having difficulty -- off I go to try again.
the word is persons. It got posted before i was done.
or working the grid and not chatting...or logged in and away from their 'puter
Or 179 players lurking about for clues?
oh no, Inge; Mary had to go, anyhow.....but she'll be back.....probably in the week, so not to worry! ;-)
well, i just logged on guys -give me a chance here --- hi everyone!!!
hi mikey!
Mary and i play Literati on yahoo's site.....as i do with several other 'Babblers' in here! :-)
hey helen
Hi, Helenkeller
hi, helenkeller
hiya ren!
hi helen
hi inge, jean
Some, like me, logged on earlier, but decided not to play, but I didn't log out again, I have looked in from time to time, to read up on the chat, and see how you are all doing
Are we back at the Walton's???
lol inge
exwren - there are no re's today
i only have 2/17 of the bottom middle T
help please with to 7/ ?
oh, Inge; the reason the Who's Online list was smaller a few days ago, was due to a lot of members being logged in on the old site, when this new one was the 'beta' test site; but now we're all in the same place, you see.....if you'd added up those in the Who's Online list in this version, with those online in the old site, i'm sure it would've amounted to about the same! :-)
Hi Jean. So there are 179 potential listeners out there. WoW.
think mountain climbing...using one of the digits on your foot
so mieky, does that mean the other site is no more?
Thats always the first thing that I look at, but I had other things to do today, and I thought 181 was too big for me undr the circumstances
ja, ExWren; that woudl be me, too.....left myself logged in here all day, and have hopped on from time to time, as i've found a few spare moments here and there! :-P
ooh thanks ren
ach; 'would'.....typo! :-P
yw jeffer
to 7" diget on your foot plus to have and to ****
got it ty inge
if i cant find a couple more words in the next 5 mins im off
that's correct, helenkeller; if you've noticed, this one now resides at http://www.playbabble.com/, in place of the old one, which for a limited time for testing purposes, was posted at http://beta.playbabble.com/
Hi everyone! I just became a pro member
congratulations, Wizard13335!!! :-D
jojo have you visisted angel song's web site? lots of helpful hints
congrats..
Welcome, Wizard, and congratulatons
evening all, back to attempt a finish tonight
congrats!!!
hey hey wizard!!!!
ahhh, i see -- i don't notice that kind of stuff cause i just add the site to my favorites list & click on whatever i want to call it (not what it actually is) :)
and i have a shadow thing that makes me like guy-ish
it's the glass ceiling silver
ren, what is the website? ive not heard of it before
welcome wizard
oh; you're female, silvertiger? ja; i think there should be male and female silhouettes for those 'no picture' icons! :-P
haha yeh
silver -we call ourselves 'targets' - a secret splinter society that lurks in the shadows of babbleland :)
Welcome Wizard, congratulations
haha okay targets huh?
look down to frineds of babble and click on angelsong's babble page
Thanks. I got to upload a Star Trek avatar :D
i was never a free member; i joined with a paid account
for those who may not know yet: A third page has been added to the online resource page.
silver - i will teach the secret handshake when no one's looking ;)
i look forward to it
wizard - i see the enterprize is that correct?
hahahaha helen
yes
helen, did you see the bit about non-pros having stats free for two weeks?
yes, i did jeff, those evil pushers will try anything to hook poor unsuspecting sould like us :)
ooops - i mean 'souls'
i cant get on to it - parental controls
i know - if i do it i will have to stop using BJ's
jefff - i use lickety -both of those are godsends
'evil pushers'? hmm; i think Jamie should earn a little something from this, for all he provides for everyone's enjoyment.....this probably isn't cost free to provide, in the first place, and a $9.95 US *one* time fee is very cheap, and more than reasonable, i'd say?
;-)
right. joey is off x
isn't it a $14.95 fee?
cheapest addiction I have...I've been without for almost 3 weeks...!!! hello friends!!! : )
either way, i have $2.36
gotta save up for that eduation...
I've just made an important discovery, when you go to read someone's profile, you get to see an enlarged version of their icon! (perhaps you already knew this)!
uh mikey, may i introduce you to word "sarcasm" - of course, i love this site & appreciate all the hard work of the handler my excuse: lazy, poor & unemployed
(((((((((((((EasternBlue)))))))))))) hey; nice to see you again!!!!! :-D
I'm back for a few...27 members on the map so far...:)
uhm, helenkeller; perhaps you failed to catch my winking emote, right after that post, hmm?
not only that, helen, we are hard-core, dyed in the wool, old-school purists
oh, wow; really, ExWren? hey; i'm going to check that out! :-)
fe5/8???
thanks Mikey...good to see you too!
mikey - i gotta talk to the dog about that - doesn't always get everything right -- bad doggie! :)
daisy - what map??
ExWren Just checked profile icons and they are the same size for me - minute
http://www.frappr.com/babble
TnDasiy I cant get onto the map. Stidmaama said it doesnt work with Firefox.
This is a map of our group. shows where we all are.
need clues please for the first few th/'s all
doesn't work with Firefox?? grrrr!
Inge I did it with firefox. I copied and pasted the address out of the chat log
Frances, did you click on the handbag?
WTG mm:)
ExWren
so no one with the fe 5/8??
OK I will try the fifth time now.
ExWren Yes I did
persistence pays off
silver...poop-like
Well I don't understand Frances, tndaisy has a lovely white rose
ty wren...grew it myself:)
my JFK's are my babies
there's a new link to the Babble map on Frappr in the Babble Links section of the online resource pages.
anyone have a hint for on 7/44?
ja, ExWren; wow.....very cool.....i've uploaded a bigger photo now, since they display at what appears to be bout 100 x 100 pixels now, in the bio pages! :-)
Great, Angel:)
Actually Frances, it didn't work with your icon!!
ExWren Just checked that one and you're right. However, all the others I checked were same size as in log
daisy - thanks...I just added myself to the map!!
on 7 strts with a no, then what you do to clothing after ironing
YAY Blue!
hmm; that's strange, Frances.....mine seems to display at the size it was when i uploaded it?
It must depend on the type of photo which is used
thanks jeffer...going to go see what that means now
either that, ExWren, or perhaps the old site resized the photos that were uploaded, and saved them as 60 x 60 pixel thumbnail images? i have a feeling that was likely the case
darn...no definition. but the word reminds me of a neat video I've seen of someone fo**ing a shirt.
saw that too
when i check the bios, mikey & tndaisy are large photos (very nice) & east's is the regular size - if that helps
seth
th 6/24 both please??
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
JeeWhiz, i got the pooplike one--the fe5/18, but i need fe4/8 <---i had a typo earlier
when I draw mine...they're small....
whew - at least it didn't count -- i have yet to make it through a grid without typing a word into the chat!!!
jeffer...do you have th5/14 before one of them? then add a consonant to make it an adjective
and i don't have the other yet
th 5/14 please anyone? ( like you benda)
anyone? fe 4/8
anyone get the prompt "word couldn't be added. contact Dr_God"?
fe** - when an editor checks your article or story
I give up. Tried fiddling with pic and sill no joy!
fe 4/8 = fe+ who **ot the **erriff (** backwards)
haha thanks guys
creative.
th 5/14: common article + west coast surfer state abbreviation
Hello everyone
LOL
fe 4/7
hi douglas
hi doug
trying to test a new icon
hurshy? do you want to chare that with the class?
share
did that help, jeffers?
douglas... went from a borg to a cute puppy... that is very funny
ahhhhh
I was looking for one of those pictures where the coffee cup is cut in half, and it's written on the cup, "You said you wanted a half a cup of coffee..."
and you couldn't find it, so you went with a puppy?
Yep...
hurshy <3 douglas even more now
Douglas, you were a borg? Like from Star Trek? I know I'm a maniacal fan of Star Trek...
Locutus, to be precise
yay for wizard! he was locutus
EasternBlue - I love your tea cup!
I wasn't locutus...
Wiz...I love you:)
ooooh wizard - you should have been here last week for star trek day - i've never seen the site so totally focused on one topic the entire day
no, two statements. i was answering your question. which was stupid anyway since douglas was here to answer it himself.
It was a great day indeed, helenkeller
aw man, I wish I had found this site a week sooner so I could see Star Trek day. lol
was away bendamaline yes, thanks
*fond memories*
you can still see it wizard, in the archives.
oh no, 7+ hours left!
it was april 27.
you won't see the icons but you can read the chat.
Evening all, gosh there is a lot of people on today.
Oh Wiz! and you're a dawg/cat person too! *swoons*
good evening katie
176 people... including a long-dead mathematician... eureka!
108 words to go..........
Well I succeeded and put my marker on the map. I am no #30 in teh babbler group. Can see your marker, Musicmom.
no problem jeffers!
thanks dalmation... 8 D
Inge - did you see <G> that my lilies are blooming?
So if you're just starting like I am, if I get 30 words/hour, I'll get the fireworks before the flip
66!
*sings* he solved the problems of his days, using math in amazing ways... his great work lives on today... archimedes...
Olaf is in the grid, but not in the dictionary
Thanks for sharing the map! It is really neat and I am now on it too!
like Count Olaf from a Series of Unfortunate Events?
Precisely. Usually Olaf is clued in crossword puzzles as "one of a number of kings," or "Scandinavian saint."
really?
...ive always hated crossword puzzles.
back again, and it's still not raining! :-) hoping to find the rest of the words. Hurshy -- assuming you finished, want to play GWSIM?
but crossword puzzles allow proper nouns, and babble doesn't.
Although it shouldn't be long before Olaf is clued as "relentless persuer of the Beaudelaire fortune."
my connection is a little whacky...I think I may sign off for awhile...bye!!!
i haven't finished
i was at a lacrosse game
sorry I missed you easternblue -- later
how many do you have left stidmama?
i have 38 to go
lacrosse, they played it at my first college, but I never went to a game...
hiya stid !
I have 72 to go -- almost any guess will "hit" I am sure!
hi helen! I just got in and will email you later... :-) how's today going?
se 5/14 - the beginning of a piece of a line, plus the opposite of yes
I'm over 10% done...woo-hoo!
the beginning of a piece of a line?
way to go Douglas! almost didn't recognize you just now, have you assimilated the puppy as well?
the beginning of the word for a piece of a line
going well - i feel like i just got here, but i think i may have already been here an hour - 80 to go
oh, i got that word.
heh...
lol stid, you a star trek fan?
tiger....oranges have ***...separate pieces...
i think she just knows bc douglas has been assimilating everything in site
fan, yes -- expert no... have n't been able to watch as much since we had kids...
tndaisy, i hadnt realized i already got it :) but u guys get so creative with these
oh stid, i didn't realize!
38's pretty good hurshy -- what didn't you realize?
Well, I have to leave now to fix supper, because we have tickets to the DSO tonight--Chopin, Lutoslawski and Mozart. Cconductor Pesek used to be in Liverpool now Prague. See you all tomorrow. Bye
that you were a fan
have fun, inge! It sounds wonderful.
bye inge
bye inge
well -- it got my start in the late 60s when our babysitter would let us stay up past our bedtime so she could watch the original series... ;-) of course back then our TV was black and white and really tiny...
btw, thanks for the se clue, now down to 71!
i am too young to have had the privilege of seeing TOS when it was new, but i became a fan at the tender age of 7
which was before next gen came out
yes - i never understood the green blood thing i was yound & it always looked black
does anyone know sn 4/5???
a classic babble word :) s + nancy drew's boyfriend
th 6/24 (second one) and th6/27 please?
i dont know who nancy drews boyfriend is...
google!
o
google.
haha
google knows everything
yes it does
The Borg has realized that this assimilation thing doesn't really play very well in the Greater Community of Worlds. Besides, we've already run into species for whom resistance was definitely not futile, (we call them Species 8472, you humans call them the <a href="http://www.startrek.com/startre k/view/series/VOY/episode/69018.html" >Borg-booty-kickers</a>). So we like to think of this as a kinder, gentler Borg...
great for projects, papers, and misc. info
okay, ive got something to add to startrek convo
*giggle* ROFL
hey all i'm new at this. can you all give me some clues for some words?
Oops, HTML is not accepted yet...
my dad and i used to watch it and my mother made us stop because she thought the faces were disgusting..
aw, douglas, it was hilarious when you said the assimilation thing was nothing personal though
mothers! pfft.
floe
ooo i got another one
careful hurshy... we're not all alike! :-)
*hands CATHB the requested bit of ice*
the black guy
whats his name?
worf?
jeffer, I don't have those yet, but am looking now! ;-)
thx cath - i got that one already - how about something i can really use? :)
erm, in real life
brooks?
oppd..sorry wrong box..have not got the hang of the new layout yet
timaa, print off lickety's list at the bottom that will give you the first two letters and point scores for all the words in today's grid :)
th 6/24 (second one) and the 6/27 please
avery brooks?
his son goes to school with my best friend... ha!
more startrek info.
oh, you mean from DS9
no prob - i've done that every day so far
erm... thats all i got.
you referred to disgusting faces before, that is why i thought you meant worf (not that i concur with that assessment)
ahhh captain sisko - i always liked him - great voice
thanks
oh, no.. jus random thought, sorry
i dont remember any names, i think i was like 7 when i watched it
*waiting for someone smart to respond to jeffers request...*
both th6/24s are similar to the preceding th 5/14. add a vowel for one of the 6/24s (making it plural) and a consonant to the other (making it an adjective)
I don't have th6/27 yet
what was jeffers request?
I'm not really up on my DS9. I don't think the Borg were in any DS9 episodes, were they?
Heh...when I saw hurshy say 'DS9", I tried in vain to find a 9 letter word starting with DS.
well there are at least 5 major characters who are black, if you consider all the series...so it is hard to pick out "the black guy"
th 6/24 (second one) and the 6/27 please
sorry
lol, sorry kickstart
im also from the ghetto incase no one could tell...
i couldn't
ty benda
you can almost make ghetto on the board today
ty bendamalina :-)
just going to clean out Fuggles cage....living on the edge on a saturday night!!!! bbl
no prob, jeffer...i'm probably going to need help on the th 6/27...right now I'm a little confused because babble says i need 4 more words, but by lickety's list i need 6...
of course DS9 is sort of... i mean esp in the early years... they didn't boldly go!!! so i'm not up on it either douglas
so what is the avatar subject manana?
teacups!
Fuggles -- is that the watery hamster?
no
manana means tomorrow
silly
no tomorrow is not teacups... tomorrow is ... ???
teeheehee
sports tomorrow
I'm working on trying a strategy of bringing up the BabAnon list right away, and working through the fours I can find...
Cute puppies don't get the skin condition hurshy's students do...
thank you Douglas! 20 points to you...
I want ascends to be in the grid
can somebody give me some words please
'fest' was not found in the dictionary? I thought it was a different word than festival.
no
well i want antidisestablishmentarian, but since doc has only made space for 13 letter words, i guess THAT'S not going to happen.
fets
oops, sorry
I just found the plural of a flat, winglike anatomic process or part, especially of bone.
st 5/10 please?
are you looking for a rock jeffer?
hint: achoo...ewww
or the secretary taking shorthand
I found something you don't want in your pool
10 points to Hurshy....

thecalx
jeffer you probably have the rock already
st5/10, one is a type of pad for dictation, the other is a rock
I got all the al4's doo-dah, doo-dah...
oh yes i have that little rock
nice.
so is it safe to assume everyones in their mid 50s
lol, no
point determined - why? because i like the name
94 currently
o...
oh....age ;)
i feel like the youngest one here.
ty benda got twp from that st/ bit of an anticlimax, tho'
i'm 28, silvertiger
how old, st?
ty hurshy and stid
yep... definitely the youngest.
36 here
we have kids as young as 12 at least
18
plenty old! ;-) that's all I'm saying....
don't worry silver, there are younger babblers, we are all ages
what stid said
ok, well i blame my age on my inability to find words.
HA
hurshy how can you be so young and know so many words?
that is a good one.
ohhh and my ghetto environment!
okay the Derby is about to start, so I am going for now. bbl
bye stid
bye!
i read a lot.
point determined
i... dont
i hate all the books we read in school
:(
you read Babble books?
more words please
i do like harry potter... but i never jumped on the bandwagon, i drove it..
ok, i got th 6/27 by monkeytyping. it's the plural of th5/16: a common article + the first two letters of a tiny little annoying insect that swarms in your face while you're stuck in outfield in little league.
lol jeff
no jeffer, but i also have a good memory, so i remember the weird words i've encountered in previous grids fairly well, in addition to knowing a lot of words.
so silver, let me return to your earlier point, which i love - if you were better at finding words, you would be older?
wow bend - those are some monkeys you got there - thx!
In honor of the Kentucky Derby, I will put up Sea Biscuit as my icon for today...
doug - put up secretariat
heh yw helen
ugh...still 34 words left!!
the most awesome ever - takes my breath away every time is that race rerun
am i the only one who found that hilarious?
yeh
if i was older than i would have more experience with random words
lol silver - hurshy made a tricky point
no no silver it is the other way around - that is where your brilliant irony comes in
I read the book, didn't see the movie...but it was a nice story of redemption...
how can it be the other way around?
yes - a real tear jerker
hurry doug - it's almost posttime
We saw Cigar and John Henry yesterday at the Kentucky Horse Park. Still magnificent animals. Love to watch the Derby - have never gone to it.
that's why it's so funny!!! read your original post.
helen, what r u on about>
well my wife was told when little that she only has so many words, and not to use them all up too soon
firworks! yay!
haha---thats funny.
wtg bend !!!!!
nice job bendamalina
...63 left
Hooray for bendamalina!
here we go >>>>>>>
but i did feed the cat...
sigh.
(YAY bendamalina) *back to the TV...*
benda could you run the th6/ by me again? um slowly ?
excuses excuses.
th5/16?
heh
so anyone from RI?
me!
kickstart...i just did a hint for th5/16...look a bit further down
th 6/27
really??
i don't live there now but i did from age 9-18
oops, nevermind...different word
what part?
coventry
...i'll pretend to know where that is as i MapQuest it
ok...one more time for th5/16 AND th6/27:
i can prove i am a rhode islander. buddy cianci, del's lemonade, pizza strips, bubblers, coffee milk, "i want to go to scarborough... that's where all the guidos go"
k, i got th 6/27 by monkeytyping. it's the plural of th5/16: a common article + the first two letters of a tiny little annoying insect that swarms in your face while you're stuck in outfield in little league.
I've got all the ca4's, oh, de, doo-dah day!
yeh? i have no idea what all that means... im from jersey
wow 7 lengths!!!!
hi everyone
! then what did you ask for? here i got all excited.
haha
im going to school there in the fall
oh, where?
brown.
thx, got it :)
lovely. well not LOVELY, but good for you.
haha y not lovely?
th 6/27: a common article + the first two letters of a little woodland creature that sits on your front lawn
is that a bad thing...?
brown... i don't know... has sort of a rep as a weird ivy
(and then make it plural)
weird ivy?
come on, explain...
ok benda got it - read the clue & understood, but kept trying to force the "a" in there. Thanks
i don't know how to explain it. i've just heard that it's a little weird. i don't know why. i'm sure it's all just rumor. :)
no problem :) I just had a flashback to my childhood though....
3/3 7s, finally!
well...i visited
theres lots of "happy" people
but besides that.. it didnt appear to be weird
well...there always are on college tours :)
it wasnt a college tour
whoo! that was intense! back :-)
Ok back to attack this grid. Have now become addicted to getting fireworks!!
it was a tour by a friend that goes there
i'm sure it's not weird, really, probably people were just exaggerating.
I've just read the "chatter" are you all smoking something??!!
but now im just interested in knowing what they meant by weird?
Nice icon Mari!!
if i knew exactly, i would tell you :)
stid - i watched it too - i don't think anyone else did - 7 lengths! wow!
oh... its okay, i still feel accomplished.
ok last one to 6/24, please
I'm glad that you said that Mari as I wasn't sure if it was me or them that had been on something :)
I've got a thick creamy East Indian stew made with lentils or other legumes, onions, and various spices
you should, silver! that's great! and i can't wait to talk to you in the fall when you learn all the rhode island terms :)
haha
i'll google some and use them
to 6/24: digit on your foot + something you wear on your head
that was so amazing. for a while, when he dropped back, I thought he had just given up -- and then BAM! right out of nowhere... whoo! (again)
Douglas -- you are making me hungry!
and ten points to Douglas, BTW
i also like the hats :)
Could be that it's time for bed KatieW yes I'm rather proud of my icon!
i don't know this stew, what letter you on now douglas?
It's also one of the da4s
wow Douglas...sounds great, can I have some?
you mean roald?
Fuggles is out playing, I fear bed is still some time off....that and I still have 74 words left. Bought some paper on the way home so at least I now have a list
I love indian food!
ty bendamalina
people say i look indian!
im so immature...
*** dishes out bowl to bendamalina *** Watch out, it's a little hot...
I LOVE FOOD! lol.... and very hungry at the moment, brb again...
are indians immature?
hmmn, now I'm feeling should make some for dinner! I have lentils....
probably not as a people
ooo, but i'd need a batura
there might be a few amongst them
Well I didn't know the eg 4/7 was actually a proper word, just put it in as a shot in the dark
or garlic naan...oh, i'm hungry now!
ten points to katieW
no, but im not indian ... im just immature
i was thinking of silver's consecutive postings a minute ago. lol
i know jeffer :)
I have 63 left now, still don't have the dangblasted th 5/14...
why do you think you are immature, silver?
KatieW don't tell me you don't use it constantly?
hey, i have 63 too!
katie...i like to say that word sometimes, and my friends look at me strangely. mostly i just say something silly, like sugarsnaps
because... im random and unnecessarily.
hurshy, i shoulda known!
Oh I use it, I just didn't know that it was a proper word!!
we LOVE unnecessary randomness.
o great.
no 10 yard penalty for that.
ok stid...th 5.14: a common article + abbreviation for the westcoast surfer state
Hi Katie W i thought you were visiting the folks ;-)
who here has a Mac and is using it right now? (Raises hand)
Proper word - we're playing Babble here!
ca 5:18...clue anyone?
...emachine here... im broke :0
Even with an exhaustive search, I'm only finding one of the de4s...hmm...
benda i thought i knew indian food - what's a batura ?
Just a quick visit today I was up visiting my God Daughter it's her b'day tomorrow
Anyone got a clue for ca4/5 even monkeying wont help me
ca 5/18 places you drink ca 4/8
ca5/18: plural of preceding ca4/8, a place to get a small bite to eat or a cup of coffee
..much like a bistro
douglas, can't you hear me?
Hey Norms where did you come from - (answers on a postcard please)
I'm here...
God daughter ?????
I was just looking at the ca conversation...
ca 4/5 sounds like what's on an angels head
It's the ca 4/8 but replace the last letter with a vowel
ca 4/4 rhymes with the thing on top of an angel's head
i SAID douglas CAN'T you HEAR me
Been watching you 'talking' lol
hey, i had that word... except, never pluralized it
yay 62 now!
111 left here :(
I'll have you know I'm a very responsible person and someone trusted me with their child's spiritual upbringing........and yes they did know me before the did it!! Her name is Zoe and she is 5 tomorrow.
waiting for lightbulb...
thanks bendamalina - I got fireworks
jeffers..it's a wonderful bread that is deep fried and puffs up to this giant looking thing that is just full of air. I think it is south indian
hey exor, I have 111 left, too
well... ive been on for like 4 hours
Pluralizing is a common strategy, silvertiger, especially when there is an e next to an s like today
YAY Norma! and thanks benda -- finally saw your clue in the chatter
douglas CAN'T you HEAR me???
Who belongs to Zoe ????
o no, naan is my best
yes, naan is tasty, too!
Oh... D'oh!
ecal
there's the lightbulb
Nigel & Tracey, friends from Coventry (England) haven't see them since I moved so good to catch up
yay norma! congratualtions
and yw stid, anytime!
sorry meant to put that in the babble box
I was looking at the wrong de... D'oh!
Sorry Katie just being nosey :-D
does anyone else see one's fire works?
no jeffer
batura manages to be soft and crispy at the same time..(at least the stuff from my favorite indian restaurant-I haven't tried making it)
Bendamaldina your clues are better than your spelling lol
now playing
lol norma!!! i tipe gud
Norma...no problem I can appreciate you would be amazed with my natural affinity to children that someone would trust me with theirs!! Well done on the Fireworks :)
o that's a little disappointing ...
good afternoon friends...how's the grid?
In one the the Looney Toon cartoon, Foghorn Leghorn says "Why Ah just ****s on boys," when asked by Prissy if he would make a good father...
Can I have a clue for aa5/14 please
Katie if you are so responsible with children when can we expect some to smother???
Katie a big sigh or an anagram of ahead
hurshy now that i have the benefit of a stats panel i see your reluctance to break out a list...
Sorry I'm sticking to hamsters lot less trouble (I think!!) :)
aa5/15 is the past tense of making a noise of understanding
hi kristinc -- it would probably be not that bad if I weren't being dristracted by the Derby, shopping and chatting....
aahed
Sorry sorry sorry
How is Fuggles by the way ???
*smacks katie with a wet hamster*
hahahah katie! Dr_God should be here
good Stid, think I'll join in.
ty jeffer... but it wasn't the stats panel that did it, it was finding out that other people do it. the gauntlet had been thrown.
LOL stid, now laughing after frightening both me & fuggles with the scream!!
hey Douglas..do you have a good recipe for da 4/6?
Or better still stidmama a damp edition of the Radio Times
Hurshy & Jeffers what on earth are you talking about
Accessing...try http://www.ivu.org/recipes/indian-bean s/dahl.html...looks pretty yummy to me...
listlessness
Great clue by the way Norma :)
benda - i do
thanks Douglas (I won't even mention that your url uses a babble word)
I tried listlessness but it really hurt. Had to return to it just to be able to see fireworks again. I do now do more before I turn to the list though :)
ok....what is it jeffer? I'm in the mood to make some tonight!
i am listless today, but only until hurshy finishes, then I'll give in... ;-)
i like listlessness most days but i have had such a rough week and have a headache so i might get it soon, i have 30 left.
hang on a sec, benda
are we playing GWHIM today?
no.
Thanx Katie W - time for bed "see" you all 2morrow
ok
some people don't like it
Night norma
so we aren't playing it anymore
down to 59... (good night Norma)
bye norma
but... I liked it :-( is that what it was about yesterday?
Goodnight Babblers - be around 2morrow sleep tite all
I like GWHIM but if you have a headache I would think it would be the final straw
oh well. cest la vie
One of the words is what you say when you get fireworks...
Wow, Mac Dictionary works great with this game
ho 5:14??
ho 5:14??
yay?
clue..
Mari where did you get your icon from ????
guess!!
I might have know Katie
God only knows!
h + some number + some letter
The power over the icons is mine!!!
Will you all wait for me!!
ho 5/14: sharpened, as skills
i have to say this:
Keep up with the conversation mari lol
What Helen what?
ho 5/14 - To move or advance toward a target or goal
it burns me when people stop doing something they like cause they cave into pressure
I have other skills
Did I miss something yesterday?
personally, i couldn't care less what hurshy is missing (certainly no offense intented) because i'm much more concerned with what HK is missing - lol -but i think it's cute you play it
ho 5/14 one is to sharpen, the other is leder***** (traditional german pants)
Such as???
Mari - you certainly do. Norma - don't be mean, play nicely now
oops...i just gave a clue for ho 5/12, no 14! sorry
THAT'S IT i'M GOING TO BED!!
good night, mari!
besides - it's not like hurshy is an idiot & has half the list missing - it's usually only a few words & the game ususally does not last very long -- too bad if some people don't like it - chat is for everyone
Katie are you being the 'grown up' ??? Nite Mari 'speak' 2morrow
What exactly is the ed4, exactly?
I'm not driving 68 miles to sort you both out, now say goodnight to each other nicely
hi this is the first time iv used this thing
Night mari nicely
ed is for lots of things, douglas! LOL usually past tense....
Night all (nicely)
Night Katie nicely
Helen, agree with you totally, I don't always join in but I love watching it. Very useful for clues as well.
i have no idea douglas, and i can't find it in the dictionary
helen - i'm not caving to pressure. it's more like... when we wanted to have a joint service with all the churches in town when i was in college, it was a problem because the catholics don't think anyone else ought to take communion, and i said, well, how about if they just take communion and we don't. a voluntary sacrifice.
Night Mari, speak to you tomorrow
so i think if you guys want to play GWHIM - go right ahead and forget about what people like & don't like - there, i feel better now, don't you? :)
ah, it's a letter used in old english. i just wikipedia'd it
i appreciate your sentiments, however, helen.
sorry hurshy - i'm not getting that analogy at all - you still had the mass, here you don't have your game
Lets face it if no one else wants to play it they won't, so people must enjoy it to join in :)
me too helen, and hurshy -- if you want to play GWHIM sometime later... just let me know.
stid...just read your ed joke...too funny
it seems like someone complained - did they?
I second helen's point, just by the way.
the analogy, helen, is that we would forsake taking communion, as i am forsaking the game.
ty mab - :))))
huuuuuuuuuuuuuuh - sacriledge - so upset i can't spell - rotten catholics!!
what is GWHIM? Sorry for being a newb ;)
i did make it clear that people should not play the game unless they enjoy doing so, but it seems that some people find it irritating just to watch.
I'm **** of hurshy...*** puts hands behind back, right toe on the ground, right heel off the ground, waggling around...***
yep...I like GWHIM b/c it always helps me get what I'm missing (just my two cents)
any clues for de7/44?
plural of the de 6/30
it's about love. but i thank you all for your comments.
ummmmm
mythoughts exactly, barrie
that's sure not very godlike of them is it - ihate catholics like that - so rigid about some things, and about other things way too lax -- ohhh, but that's a whole nother can of worms - ***stomps lid firmly back on***
<3 hurshy...
if you've got the de 4/8 add some more letters to it Barrie
o
de 7/44 is to make someone no longer able to hear
thx
stid...that symbol looks like an ice cream cone...mmm...ice cream
actually we never had the service, there were those in each denomination who found some point to stick on. it was very sad.
oh oh oh!!! I see it! I don't have any of the des, but I see it!
last thought - those who are irritated by it should take some of this xanax the doc gave me -that'll cure it!!
flad
I still don't know what the game was that people are bitching about - OK, I just wannt know what it stands for, really, I get the idea of the game from the chat
yes hurshy - that is very, very sad - the exact opposite of spirituality
I am NOT getting the ed 4... help?
GuessWhatHurshyIsMissing (i think)
missing an no4/5 have "bend your head"
yes helen
sorry dino
this won't accept ohone
probably cause you just made it up wiz - LOL
i forgot to answer your question
I hope jeffer didn't go far for the recipe. i'm about to go--my muscles are aching and need stretching after my bike/frisbee one-two punch today
but now helen did so it's ok
actually its from the dictionary, helen :P
Peri, another NO 4/5 is a place where several things connect to each other, or a lymph _____.
my own little biathlon
no 4/5: a point on a computer link? same first three letters and the head one...
wizard - as i have told many an innocent soul - questioning the whys and wherefores of the enable dictionary is the path to madness
oh right - the "wizard13335 dictionary" -LOL
Layne, thanks, thought I already had that one, but didn't
No, the Oxford American Dictionaries
I have 119 words to go with 6:05 remaining...
YW, Peri.
i'm just kidding wiz - clearly you know more obscure words than i!
I have 55 left, so far no list... but fading fast!
need help with the on7 please
it slows way down stidmama, you have to expect that. i have 38 to go.
No I don't, helen. I'm just using a dictionary :D
speaking of food...hoho is not in the dictionary
no 28
hit wrong button
29 - ok, stid - now this is more of a fair race -ready?
Sometimes people eat Rock Cornish game ****
stid-- ed 4/6 is ed + abbrebiation for secondary school
Was anybody speaking of food?
benda - started typing it out and realised its not suitable for sharing - i have no quantities written in ( i do it by instinct) anyway it would have been good ....(lamel)
hey guys- i don't usually chat, but i'm curious - what do you mean when you ask for hints for 4/5 or other numbers? i'm sure i'm just being stupid...
me douglas...ice cream!
lamely
That abbreviation for secondary school burns my biscuits!
ls1 - not stupid -an often asked question
I aws puzzling over that - think its letters/points
yeah, i've been wondering that too
baobab!
:-)
fa 4/8 - words starts with fa; has 4 total letters; worth 8 points
ok jeffers, just making sure you weren't doing too much work when I'm about to leave. I'm going to use Douglas's link, but thanks for the effort!!! I appreciate the thought
yw
i've been too cheap to update to the pro version
ls1 - do you understand now?
oh! thanks helen
I'm never sure if one word posts are words or comments but as I can't find lamely in the grid anywhere it was just a comment :)
baobab where are you?
good! yw
US
It should be noted that further information than what's in the tile stats is available at Babbler's Anonymouns, or BabAnon as the in-crowd calls it...
interesting name
burnt biscuits douglas? what's wrong with the abbreviation?
thanks
you know what baobab is?
love the baobabs in Zimbabwe
i do i do!
:-)
and N. Transvaal
do you like the trees, or little prince fan, or what?
both
Hurshy, you sound like donkey in Shrek
although started off with little prince
Pick me, Pick me
i'm a STALLION
ooo, I saw baobabs in Zimabwe -- that's almost a tongue twister.
now i sound more like him
1) I don't like abbreviations in Scrabble or Boggle, so I don't like them in Babble, 2) the abbreviations in the dictionary are highly arbitrary, 3) I didn't like it that elhi was a word...
once i actually saw the trees and learned more about i thought they were very very cool...plus, i just think that the word sounds neat
stidmama, I hope you don't mind...I just added you to my Yahoo IM...
I saw baobabs in Zimbabwe as well, but the last time I was there was in 1970
LOL hurshy
yes word sounds neat neat neat
It was still Rhodesia at the time
It does have a good sound, baobab.
i'm stuck at 75 words left...
there's a baobab near Victoria Falls that takes many men to surround
oh...that wasn't the abbreviation I meant for the word...it was supposed to be ed + the more common abbreviation. I've never even seen that abbreviation before, Douglas
oh yeah, and they still had WHEAT then too... i haven't been to zimbabwe yet but i'd love to go
i was gont to give the number but forgot it.
rhodesia changed its name cause they found out about how weird rhode islanders are and they didn't want to be accidentally associated with us in any way
douglas how come you were ther ?
I remember this big baobab tree we saw on the way to Victoria Falls...It had the sign "Big Tree" in front of it...That must be the baobab tree to which jeffer is referring
big tree HA
hey I really need some help....no 7:44??
hurshy you constantly astound me
definitely not american.
lol...who *was* rhode island named after anyway?
Of all the people on line I do think OhToWant1Thing has surpassed themselves with the name
it was named after the isle of rhodes, and jeffer, why?
wait, i don't get hurshy's hint... hrm...
on 7/44 is the first numeral + what you do to laundry once it's clean and dry, before you but it away
you knew that about RI?
i didn't give a hint
lol
no, hurshy, it's because Rhodes was evil.
hurshy...do you do the IM thing?
My father was spending the summer in South Africa, doing some teaching at the University of Stellenbosch, and doing some consulting work for the Stellenbosch Farmers Winery...It became a family adventure, passing through Zimbabwe along the way...
i was just saying how i lived in RI age 9-18, jeffer
yes, tndaisy, i have AIM
Anyone ever seen Paint Your Wagon
I thought it was named after Rhode Island Red chickens.
!! ok ok, i'm still stuck on 75 words left, and since i'm too cheap to upgrade to pro i have to work wiht the tile stats
I can't believe Clint Eastwood can sing.
i saw that hurshy - lived in Zimbabwe 20 years
that's the state bird
may I add you?
What? That seven letter you just hinted for isn't a word, is it?
Zim is much changed since I was there sevenish years ago.
BENDAMELINA thank you muchly
sorry for the late clue, georgiaj, i had meant to write a clue, and then got caught up chattering
Douglas you liked stellenbosch too?
what is your screen name, daisy, same as here?
no problem georgia...are you from GA, cause that's where I am
Sure I've seen PYW. Why?
mab that is for sure i went in 2004
no
no...it's alt1960 LONG story
Stellenbosch was wonderful! We stayed at the Lanzerac
WA
Samantha. We rented it -- I'm a big musical freak and had never seen it. Clint Eastwood surprised me.
hurshy, what color is baobab to you? Anybody else? the word, not the tree.
i went to cecil rhodes school when i lived in canada as a kid... although why any one would name a school after the man is beyond me... then again, if we can name a scholarship after him, and a country, i guess we can name a school
quite different to inland africa too, huh
That was the movie that convinced him to start directing
Alright then...i'm off to make some da4/6 and do some stretches...have fun guys, and good luck getting fireworks!
actualy in context, rhodes was not all that bad
They were over budget and behind schedule and he said "even I can do better than this"
hmm, i don't get a color from that one
daisy, i've added you, if you log on i'll send you a buzz
It's great. I'm trying to babble and watch at the same time.
Yes, it's such a strong visual in itself.
lol I thought I was on! lemme see
It's a good musical, even a great musical, but frankly a lousy movie <i>qua</i> movie
Well --- we just got through the opening credits. Maybe I should reserve commentary<G>
it says I'm online hurshy
the plot's fun, the music's great--the direction is blah
but if you like lerner and loewe, you'll have a good time
on AIM? hmm, odd
I love Lerner and Lowe!
are you invisible at the moment?
then you can call the wind mariah and have a good time
not that I know of...gimme your name and I'll do it that way
mab how come you were in Zim?
press alt+I and then type in her screenname...
...and sondheim, and Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Rodgers and Hart --- etc etc etc.
...and sondheim, and Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Rodgers and Hart --- etc etc etc.
I'm using trillian, if that explains anything
what does the first ga4,7 mean?
i'll put it in my profile, daisy, for you to see
heh. we have similar tastes, mom
okay back to the grid.
understood:) ty
ga4,7 <-- a purple fruit without the R
Not a huge Lloyd Webber fan though.
well, that's because the music is infantile
but techinicolor dreamcoat has some songs in it that I enjoy
no, what's the definition of the _other_ ga4,7?
Yes infantile but unfortunately catchy
Aw, c'mon, studies have shown that 73% of all Americans have sung along to "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" in their cars, when they think no one's looking...
o
got it daisy?
Also, 82% of statistics are made up on the spot . . .
LOL Douglas - what kind of commentary is that on Americans?
thx anyway, silvertiger, any idea?
erm... im thinking too
this is a first.
OO i got it
...past tense of the definition of "happy"
LOL musicmom...
adjectives have past tenses?
haha
erm
past tense of homosexuality?
without the y
that silly "x" is not down at the bottom of the grid today and I keep thinking it is.........somebody slap me.
Here it is: "to come over all homo"
its not even in the dictionary.. thats funny
I think i just saw the name andrew lloyd webber go by. (shudder)
only in a negative context mab
it's OK, mab, we were dissin' him
Alas mab, you did
it's listed at morewords.com, whatever that is
It sounds Middle English to me
cadal
gadal
oh. thanks stidmama. That's ok then.
whoops
monkey typing in the wrong box
im missing a no 4,4
hi can i have a big word plz
got it.
Then your glasses might fall down, slivertiger
it's an anagram of the other no4,4
yeh, i got it, thanks guys
on 6:18??
this game is so addicting...lol (-
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoc oniosis is the biggest word in my book :)
floccinaucinihilipilification
gazunheit, vic
LOL HK
katie said a wor-ord, katie said a wor-ord... oh wait, not in the grid....nevermind.
oh sorry & katie too, must be contagious
Danke schon, hk! but don't worry; it's not contagious!
lol mab
that's good vic, cause i don't think there's enough room in my brain for words like that
supercalifargelisticexpialidocious is more my speed
anyone have a clue for oh 4,6?
because i was afraid to speak when i was just a lad...
even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
so anyone know...ON 6:18???
HK that was what I wanted to type but I didn't know how to spell it!!
oh yeah katie - i'm so totally sure i got it right, lol, not!
Well, you don't have to keep it in your brain all the time. Leave it in your jewelry box and only use it on special occasions.
on6/18 - start or beginning
There will be famines and earthquakes, but these are but the on 6:18 of sorrows
Georgiaj - sorry I haven't got that one yet :(
besides katie, your word went on to the next line, making it much longer (but less fun, of course)
ooohhhhhh, niceone, douglas
douglas you keep moving up the charts. soon you will be my favorite person in the world and i will have to leave my husband for you.
I've got all the fl4's, doo-dah, doo-dah
lol vic - jewelry box - don't use that much anymore, i guess i could keep them in there
VICUNA thanks! (:
was anyone going to help samantha with the oh 4/6? just curious, ya know
*** major blushes ***
sim to aa5
Okay I can't watch a movie, search the grid and follow the chat. going with movie and grid.
oh 4/6?
oh+ it sits on ur neck minus the a
Now I get the firework clue from ages ago!!
heh. I figured no one else had it, either
i was just perusing the who's online, and there is a player called snape's baby, i love it!
thanks hurshy - see, my mouse doesn't go that way
got it, thank you
no prob
lol nut
now there's a scary thought
im eating olives... now im thirsty
i'm picturing swaddling clothes - in black!
greasy swaddling clothes
lol
hlp with on7,44?
Severus just doesn't seem to be in the market for that sort of thing...
ask douglas. he gives good clue for that one . . .
douglas?
noswald on7/44 first number plus single pleat
yes, prpbably he was in love with lily
I actually don't have the on 7/44, just the on 6?18
single pleat?
thenkyoo
that's creepy doug - but in the hp fan fiction, there's a ton of stuff about his 'love life', a ton!
what you do with cholthes, after they've been dried but before you put them away
fold them
oh
ha.
LOL silvertiger
oops?
HAHA
silvertiger What you do with your napkin
..what napkin?
Maybe Snape had an affair with Umbridge.
oh
wow... i dont feel stupid now
evan - i recall that as one of the stories - there's so much weird stuff out there, about hermioine & draco, herm & harry, just places your brain really shouldn't be going, lol
haha, an affair with umbridge?
he despised her!
well, that's how lots of people view their exes
Yeah, but he's a little conflicted, i think.
and that's stopped a man, when? silver?
im still mad that he killed dumble
Indeed, but after book six, we know that he was on both sides of the fence, kinda sorta
even worse that draco didnt stop him
i don't think he did kill dumbledore, i think he may wind up a hero
silvertiger What, you don't use one?
Dumbledore isn't dead
yeh he is
they burried him and everything
well, dumbledore asked snape to kill him i think
snape is still good
ure kiddin...
I still can't believe that that actually happened I still think it was faked, I mean how could Dumby be so wrong?
Nope. I'll lay you dollars to donuts that even if he is dead, he comes back
Yeah, yeah, why not steal the "Even Gollum may have his part to play" bit?
and draco and harry will team up to kill voldy
no, it seems right that he would die because he believed the best in people
silver - they're wizards -the normal rules don't apply - just because he died & he's buried doesn't necessarily mean anything - that's the beauty of magic!
I wouldn't go so far as to say that Snape was ever "good". But that doens't make him a Deatheater, either.
There's too much foreshadowing and obvious misdirection for me to believe it
he'll be in a painting in the headmasters office
he is a painting in the headmasters office
which proves his death
Wormy still has a part to play don't forget because harry saved him
He'll be back
ugh, yeh, he just needs to die
Ooh, just in time for Harry Potter discussion!
silver - your view of 'death' is too black & white
if there was ever a time, it was when dumble was in trouble
true, but that is so unglorious
but it is black and white
i'd like to see all three, and draco, corner voldy and POW
evan is right - dumby deserves a better end than the one he got -
they die, fawkes left, he became a painting, he never told harry, snape
wait, snape COULDVE killed harry...
And he'll get one
Silvertiger, your upsetting me now I'm just going to carry on believing he is going to come back. Just because it is black & white doesn't mean it's true, don't you have tabloids over there.
whate does superman wear
thats a clue
lol katie
We knew that, Roxyqueen...
no, im back on the dumble is really alive theory
But thanks, anyway...
there are other forms of keepin urself invincible... not just horocruxes
Roxyqueen Dodgy knickers
That's better we can all sleep a little easier now
I'm stuck on 111 words and I don't think I'm going to get anymore
he better come back
ok, glad to hear the silver
Frances you threw me there I thought that was a clue
Why does the picture supposedly prove death? All kinds of pictures were taken of people still alive
but remember that dumbledore wasn't afraid of death
any hints on sh5/14
i honestly cant help but wonder how rowling is supposed to sum up harry pothead in one last book
and he will come back - you wanna know how??? i'll tell you ----
Good answer Jera
he won't come back, he won't be a ghost, he'll leave his pensieve to harry
Putting footwear on horse, past tense
What did the blacksmith do to my horse?
through LOVE !!!!! that's what he's been preaching all along
go ahead helen
testify it, sister, hk!
I -think- there are no words at all in this that use the m.
...love?
sorry hellen kay
I'm not sure she will be able to walk away after the 7th book unless she kills him....I fear for the end of the next book
that's the moral at the end of every book
i think he sacrificed himself to save harry, which puts the same enchantment of love on harry that he had from lilly
Seriously, I think Dumbledore is dead... and Snape killed him... on Dumbledore's orders.
maybe its the standard good conquers over evil and he will still survive.
Silver, you must have picked up on the power of love theme by now
right jera!
y would dumbledore WANT to be killed by snape?
occlumency remember!
to save harry silver
No greater love & all that good stuff...
how will that save harry?
Jera, we've just convinced Silver he is still alive, don't make us start all over again!!!
how is dumble dead saving harry?
I'm looking forward to someone on the dark side double crossing someone important in an attempt to get control of the dark side, y'know, the old "no honor among thieves" bit
Oh now she wouldn't give all that away in the 6th book... what would there be to look forward to in the 7th?
...
so its like what his mother did for him?
He asked Snape to kill him so that Draco wouldn't have to kill him, thus saving Draco from going over to the dark side irredemably.
dumbledore dies, deatheaters leave
that's what i think
draco is key
Makes sense to me... I also enjoy the bonding & sacrifice of Snape for/with Draco
I just got a patrilineal clan of ancient Rome composed of several families of the same name claiming a common ancestor and belonging to a common religious cult
that will be part of the lesson, working together with your enemy
okay... draco being good in the end makes sense
I find Draco fascinating... no one gets that nasty by chance... like Snape's tortured past. I've done a bit of fan fiction re Draco's summer vacations at home
dumble being killed by his orders by snape for the good of harry doesnt.
Isn't the kid that plays Draco in the movies fantastically cast
What evidence do you have that Draco would ever be good?
yes, and snape and draco will still hate harry, but they will have a common goal
I am back -- Helen, there should be an email for you. :-) hi all!
but it does!
Yes, Katie, but I fear Tom Felton will never get any other work after these movies.
dumbledore froze harry and faced the death eaters alone and injured - how is that not saving harry's life?
Douglas, you don't need evidence. Dumbledore has faith in the good that can be found in every human.
silver, how's the grid going for you? have you found any more words?
Jera, there is that guy who always plays Nazi's so he may have a fantastic career but only as the bad guy
i have 52 left
bad guys are sexier katie
tom felton worked before harry potter, why would you think he wouldn't work after harry?
i dont like dan rad
i think he makes a lousy harry pothead.
grint grint grint for me
I have 55 left -- you are doing really well!
why silver?
can someone explain the word stats boxes to me?
im just not too fond.
im sure they couldve fond a sexier version, with REAL green eyes.
found***
i think he does good, he's not going to be a hotty, which harry isn't supposed to be. he's actually kind of dorky
bbnaz, because he's been typecast. He said in an interview that he can scare small children on the street, LOL
Jean, the first number in the box says how many words of that length you've found, and the second number says how many words of that length there are in the puzzle
silver......how can an 11yo be SEXY?????
that guy that they were originally gonna choose is sexy
Thanks Douglas I was trying to explain and confused myself
oliver wood is sexy.
bb -- ummm. daniel's growing up along with all the other kids on the cast...
yep but TF isn't even a blond. You watch, he will prove you wrong.
so in this puzzle there are no words of 8 or more letters?
OLLIEWOOD!!!
correct esprit
right, jean
I'm totally in luuuuuuv with Sean Biggerstaff...
ok thanks
hes gorgeous...
whos' that jera?
Oliver Wood.
Stid, you are right, but unless you have the ability to forecast the future (anybody Trelawny or Firenze?) then how can you say who or what is sexy.
and the tile stats, not to be too big a moron?
its the only reason my dvd skips during quidditch
I never got in the books that HP was supposed to be dead on sexy
me either, but it wouldnt hurt if he was
im just mad about the non-green eyes thing
then again, I am old enough to be their gran
the number of words starting with that particularly letter that you've found, and the number in the puzzle, just like the word stats
the second letter is how many words there are beginning withthat letter
the first nuimber is how many of them you've found
Douglas you are quick
oh, well, im young enough to date them....
he has taped glasses!
he's a dork
tyvvm
then you should be going for the Phelps brothers
okay, I am going for the list... wish me luck! :-)
I'm giving up soon I keep getting distracted by the chat and I need to leave for the football in less than 11 hours and haven't even gone to bed yet
cage
oh
aaaakkk
sorry
i still think harry potter should be sexy...
hi again - hubby came home & it took me all this long while just to read back in the chat - i like the snape saving draco/ by dumby orders idea
got to remember that return stuff on this new page
oh, they should bring oliver wood back for whatever random reason.. they didnt in the 4th movie.. which sucked
went to c that with my insignificant other and was depressed after the world cup was over and he didnt meet oliver wood.
so were you a H/Hr shipper silver?
no
i thought if anyone was gonna hit it, it would be hr and ron
hmm, oliver never comes back though
Harry Potter should not be sexy, he is a hero to both sexes
and is regulus alive as stubby boardman?
sorry, hermione*
how about cedric
katie, who does that mean he shouldn't be sexy? Hero's can't be sexy?
yeh he sees him casually and quickly
regulus is dead, but he took the horcrux, i know it
u think its regulus?
i think it would be too obvious if it was really rugulus
nope and I think dd is dead too
Not when they start to book/film at 11 years old. Let's face it the kid could have turned out awful
ddi is dead, regulus took it. can you think of another character with those initial?
yes, but we're talking about him now--he's a fine young man
haha, but that other kid they had up for it was cute then and cute now... danrad was never a looker.
do you think that JKR reads fan fiction?
i do not think draco has aged well, much, much cuter when he was younger
because if you read all the books, she keeps bringing the same name back
well, a bratty teenager, actually, but you can see the potential :D
Does Dumbledore get a **** now that he's been whacked?
for a laugh?
how about a hint for he4/5, not farm animal
just wonder if you think that she peruses what folks are doing with her characters
nevermind, found it
probably for amusement
im sure she'd avoid that
or lead people to believe... and then change it in the next chapter
straight people, shortened word
you get he* when you are angry then make plural
in some of her interviews she admits to reading some
i also think she is going to kill harry so that folks will leave her alone post book 7
right, im sure she would... its quite amusing when people are 100% wrong
ok, I'm outta here
bye bye
haha
bye sam
bye sam
bye SamanthaJoy...
Night Sam
im sure she wouldnt.. so people wont say, hey, u were kidding right? hes not really dead!
oh bbnaz - that's just downright mean
why is that?
mean I mean
shoes
she won't kill harry
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
she cant kill the hero
HK I totally agree with bbnaz, however silver does have a point
hes a hero to lil kids!
dumble dying is bad enough for the lil runts.
here book is about teaching good morals, and good over evil, killing harry would deliver the wrong message
they cant handle the main character dying
yeah, but the runts are growing all the time
well they changed the ending to wizard of oz in the movies from the book, so they could do the same if she whacks him and the kiddies would be happy
haha
If you don't mind me saying black being killed wasn't a barrel of laughs either but he never came back
dumbledore died with richard
PE 6:27?
gambon is a goof
im not quite sure if the parentals will be happy to send their kids to watch a movie where GOOD over EVIL should be the moral
i agree bb --- with the richard thing
It would be very unsatisfying, and inconsistent with the rest of the books, for Harry to die in Book 7
i believe black is not dead either & he is going to come back - it's much better here in my little fantasy world where things are exactly as i like them :)
silver, prefer evil over good?
black is totally dead
ah but JKR said she is NOT going to bring anybody back from the "dead"
i was so mad when black died
no, nut, no
I have two pe 6/24, but not a pe 6/27
blacks death is the new driving force for harry
that and dumblydore
i agree.
I think that he will kill the baddie and then die shortly afterwards therefore securing good for all time.......picking up on the theme of their fates being linked.....when is the 7th book out?
his parents, his godfather, and his mentor... all dead, all because of one man
AIE!!! HP talk..
eeks almost typed a word
yeh, he'll kill that bum.
pe6/27 is plural of the pe5/16
pe6/27 is plural of the 5/16 add a vowel to the 4/7
or thing silver
i can see that happening katie, makes sense
stid: do you have a clue for 5:16?
I cried my eyes out when Black died, my ex thought something dreadful had happened, not happy when I explained it was the book
musicmoom, I don't have the 5/16...
lol katie
nice job katie :)
i cried when cedric died
so cute, so young
stid add a vowel to the end of the 4/7
i thought krum was cuter than cedric
STID just tack on what happens when you get older or rather when they get older
he didnt talk much, but thats the point
yippee! down to 52... :-)
The angel touched the lips of the prophet Isaiah with a coal, taken with ****s from the altar
i dont think the movie accurately portrayed krum or cedric
pe5/16 is another word for wampum. Start with opposite of war (1st 3 letters) add a consonant for the pe4/7, then second vowel for the pe5/16, plural for the pe6.27
silver in the book or the film? In the book yes but I haven't seen that film yet. Nearly bought it today but it was £15 so didn't bother
oooh stid - the race is good today - 7
brb
any clues for pe5/16 and pe 6/27 please
Hello, I'm back for a bit.
about 30 bucks? u havent read all of them?
oh, sorry, the film, okay
nevermond, i got then. thanks
yeh, id say a bit too much for a film
add on to pe4,7
Right it's 1am so had better go now. Last day of the season tomorrow so have to be awake enough to enjoy it.
The 4th movie should have been a 2 parter
ok, goodnight!
Silver that's what most new DVDs cost over here
no... it shouldve just been a reallllly long movie
Night all
yeh, they cost about 20 bucks here.
also need clues for th 6/27, th5/16 th 5/12
read them all, have them on both the UK & US cd editions and own every dvd....am I sick or what?
You're company has been most delightful. Today I have half the words, so I'm going to declare victory and withdraw...Drop by my blog, Crossword Bebop, sometime and say hello!
haha, no, i think thats good
Evening, All. Any clues for the long on's? ON7/44 and 6/18?
jera - absolutely right - i felt the approach they took was, ok, here are the highlights, let's film those scenes & forget about all the stuff inbetween
i have a harry potter trivia game... prefects edition..
i also love the jellybeans
bye doug
i agree that the movie is too short and that it really doesnt depict the book well at all
oh yes, the board games, all of the action figures and the Scene This
I need to go into St Mungos for magical maladies no?
but ive watched it with a non-harry pothead reader and he enjoyed it quite a lot
personally, I am glad they skipped most of the world series.. that was too much in the book, I thought
haha, no, i think ure a healthy fan
the world cup was comical relief in the beginning
and then exemplified the horror that was to come.
i think it was very appropriate.
Wouldn't it be cool if the 7th book came out on July 7th, 2007?
no, i dont wanna wait that long...
no, actually, that would be cute... i cant wait!
bbnaz, YES!
I don't WANNA wait that long... I'd love it to be released tomorrow! But that woould just be so cool with the number 7 all across...
And I'm right behind you .. Make way for the St. Mungos inmates!
i just wanna read it over and over and over
I sometimes think I'm the only one on the planet who has not read a word of Harry Potter. I must do some day.
im waiting for the 7th book to come out so i can get the complete set...
i have the list now, and am going to dive into the grid with it. back when I need clues.
someday? u should quit babble now and go buy the books
although we sure did ruin lots.
but even if u know whats gonna happen, u never really expect it to happen when it does
Hi all!! Stidmama -- I am doing the same thing -- just got the list and have 51 to go :)
*shakes head at mab* really, thought better of mab than that
i have 51 too!

the x is in a bunch of words that don't look like real words
hi stid!
stidmama...do you use Yahoo IM as well as the email addy?
hrm, only have it once... those words-that-don't-look-like-words get me every time!
I can -- I have an IM thingy that allows me to do it.
hints anyone?
((hi daisy))
well...I hope you don't mind...I added you earlier but you'll have to accept on your end I think.
btw, my daisies are beginning to bloom along the driveway -- saw them today and thought of you!
awww:)
no, I don't mind, I'll pop on and accept right now... then back to help others. :-)
baobab, you mean for words that have x in them?
one of the words is the ga5,24
yes please prana
one of the words with x starts is c4/10
if you added the sometimes vowel to the end, you'd know it as a "normal" word
the ga5, 24 is the only one i have
lol, oops, ok
okay, I have more than half, that's good for me.
Can anyone help with OH4,6
fl4 is an actual word... that is, a recognizable word
fa4,12 has it too
oh + past tense letters
past tense of oh-

reminds me of the ca 4,10
aha! thx prana
baobab, did you get the fl 4,12 with it?
yes yes thx!
hey, fl 4,12?
u need it?
i don't
baobo, there's also fa4/12
silvertiger? when did you get back?
so I'm trying to get adjusted to this new format and my husband got me all set up w/ firefox b/c someone said it worked better. My question is...what's the difference, I can't see any.
just now
i found a word.. now that im refreshed!
...yay, only 42!
less problems with firefox
good for you! I finished a little while ago, so have others, so ask if you want help!
firefox is just much better all around, anyway
what kind of problems? (I'm not opposed to firefox, just curious mostly)
down to 43... this is going to drive me NUTS!
haha, ok, so can i have 42 words?
al 5/12
firefox will allow you to do some things that other browsers don't work so well.
think hawaii
oh, they say there are less viruses or just problems with firefox, unlike internet explorer that pops up a "will be terminated" window all the time
al 5/12 is a hawaiian word
It is more stable than the internet explorer, and it gets "attacked" less often by hackers.
i love the tabs with firefox
right.
okay, I was just wondering. We've had it recommended before but somehow I thought the format might change a bit. Thanks for the thoughts.
tabs are great!
thx Fran
i think i'm missing the words-that don't look like words at this point...
fran is great!
does that M ever get used?
what IS the latest version of Firefox?
