hiya chic, fran, nan, orn, etc. & thanks!

12:52 am

12:52 am

ooooh chic - yours is creepy - i have a creepy one picked out too - but first i wanna throw out some words

12:52 am

hiya une!

12:53 am

phantom - erotica (so... many.... 7 letter... phantoms.... arg!)

12:53 am

I just hate it when erotica is a phantom.

12:53 am

12:53 am

phan - concern

12:54 am

12:54 am

1st grey box!

12:54 am

yay helen, congrats

12:55 am

Darn. When I have to curse my kids back to bed at night, I rebed them. I do.

12:55 am

really wish i could go pro and get stats back but have no credit card, alas!

12:55 am

helen, that upper left A?

12:55 am

ne8/50 all those hours watching CSI are finally paying off!

12:55 am

sprite - i rebed myself almost every morning!

12:55 am

Beast, do you have a bank account? you can go through paypal

12:55 am

you betcha orn!

12:56 am

LOL

12:56 am

sc7/32

12:56 am

See? Perfectly normal word! :)

12:56 am

ty une

12:56 am

cool i am so excited now, is it easy to do?

12:56 am

thanks une!

12:56 am

beast, just set yourself up in paypal for bank transfer

12:56 am

beast, yeah, it may take a few days to confirm the account before you can use it, I forget - but they give you a little money in the process!

12:57 am

Helen... and if we sleep with our love, we cobed, right?

12:57 am

cool will get it set up

12:58 am

enable has obviously never played many online games. necro is a perfectly cromulent word...

12:58 am

be back in a bit

12:58 am

absolutely sprite!

12:58 am

Almost every selfrespecting game has a necro. But you can make a valid word of it.

12:59 am

yeah, I have that

12:59 am

yay, found it!

12:59 am

Thanks Sprite...that gave me a co7/36 and co8/50

12:59 am

I need some paypal advice - theother way round. I have books to sell and would like to accept paypal but don't know how.

12:59 am

jilli, it doesn't tell you how on the paypal site?

Okay - the baby is FINALLY asleep. So, off to beddy-bye with me, too. Nitey-nite!

12:59 am

at 145 I'm comatose--off to bed--TTFN--happy babbling!

1:00 am

night shminky!

1:00 am

night une and shminky

1:00 am

lol Hugs... now let's see if I can find them :)

1:00 am

Night Une!

1:00 am

And Schminky too

1:00 am

google paypal and read the users remarks, jilli

1:00 am

I'll have to check the site again - didn't understand that before

1:00 am

jilli, our DJ business is set up with a business paypal, but i think you can have a personal account accept money also.

1:01 am

night une!

1:01 am

Got them, I think, Hugs! Build on 6, right?

1:02 am

There were so many negative reports on paypal, that I refuse to use it. World Pay is a much better option -- affiliated with the Bank of Scotland

1:02 am

That's right Sprite

1:03 am

Fran, I don't know if mine is business or personal - the books are self-published ones on the development of Great Danes, which I wrote.

1:03 am

Have been using paypal for years now and never ever had a problem.

1:03 am

ditto for me too, sprite

1:03 am

ditto three

1:03 am

i've never had problems either

1:04 am

Does World Pay have a website too? Dumb question, I bet

1:05 am

probably

1:05 am

ooh, I got a gray one besides the upperleft A!

1:05 am

www.worldpay.com

1:06 am

most of the problems with paypal seem to be occuring at the vendor's end.

1:06 am

Bottom R, Ornith?

101 - going for the icon - of course it's huge when i have a ton of stuff to do tomorrow plus dinner theatre at night, sigh! brb

lol orn- you rock!

1:06 am

nope sprite, a real one... right side S

1:06 am

and I would be the vendor, nan

1:07 am

so all these sevens people have ... are they normal words? 'cause i've only got three and i feel very dim.

1:07 am

WTG Ornith!

1:07 am

elphaba, not only are they normal, most of them are SILLY. I've only got 4 myself

1:07 am

i've got 4, elphaba, and they're all normal

1:07 am

i've got at least one silly one

1:08 am

thanks for the URL, une. I'll be checking all this out. Too bad this grid is so big - bridge all afternoon tomorrow, sigh

1:08 am

anyone have the 9s yet

1:08 am

and 'idiotic' is a phantom.

1:08 am

but no ob words or re words. alas.

1:09 am

I only have 3 7s, 1 8, no 9s

1:09 am

I still don't have those two sevens either, elphaba

1:09 am

1 8 here too

1:10 am

i guess this feeling of inadequacy is due to writing down all the ones people said they had ... it makes a bigger list than any one person. :)

1:10 am

at my age, resag is a word

1:10 am

ob7 indecent

1:10 am

Ob9

1:10 am

I've 8-7's and 3-8's... but still no 9's

1:10 am

ty sprite

1:10 am

I've got two 8s... there's one on the non-silly co7, and one ne8 you'd hear on a crime/medicine show

1:10 am

That is Ob9/78, definitely NOT indecent. Very good.

1:11 am

hello all, how is the grid?

1:11 am

thanks une, you can make it more indecent

1:11 am

ob8 is MORE indecent! :-)

1:11 am

the crime show one is also rather buffyish (for those non crime show fans)

1:11 am

just got the ob7-8. thanks. no idea on the ob9 yet

1:11 am

thanks une

1:11 am

you are ahead of me hugs -- only 7-7's and 1-8 here

1:11 am

ty une

1:11 am

I think most of us have problems with Ob9.

1:11 am

ty une

1:12 am

aha! thanks sprite. ob9 school is where you send your dog

1:12 am

1:29 am

Yeah miranda. We want you to only enter valid words in this one :)

1:29 am

thanks sprite, that gave me one, even if I'm still struggling with the 7/36. I bet it's a total fish..

1:29 am

en 7/32

1:29 am

thanks for the di9

1:29 am

already did miranda! it looks like a perfectly good word, but isn't!

1:29 am

Well--I rebag things a lot!!!

1:30 am

makes sense to me!

1:30 am

1:30 am

1:30 am

hi beast - we've all been cluing the long words, might want to scroll back

1:30 am

1:30 am

1:31 am

ahah! thank you sprite. I was looking in for rec????.

1:31 am

hi beast and ty sprite

1:31 am

Hehehe, that's the other one. It was just there to put you on the wrong foot ;)

1:31 am

1:32 am

Yeah! Found a compound all by myself! No7/44.

1:32 am

everyone be careful...the grid has co****s

1:33 am

elphaba, very close. Think horses and feeding them.

1:35 am

oh! i know that word!

1:35 am

oh, thanks sprite!

1:35 am

though my first guess was rather horsey too

1:35 am

how about that en7?

1:35 am

ooh, and just passed halfway :)

1:35 am

Ornith: you want it again?

1:35 am

ugh, i just want to gray out another box. i'd even take the lower left R, which is making no sense to me

1:36 am

oh, darn, thought I found it for you, but it put it on a different R.

1:36 am

thanks for trying :)

1:36 am

elpha do u have the other single r

1:37 am

sprite, did I miss an en7 clue, or is that the clue?

1:37 am

damn, i thought i had it there ...

1:37 am

ha... got the no word...la la

1:37 am

taz, nope.

1:37 am

1:37 am

That was the clue, Ornith! I'll play it for you again... on stage. Plural.

1:38 am

oh, durr. fish. thanks ramix

1:38 am

elphaba: more like the underground world of a tree, is the lower left R.

1:38 am

the lower left R is ro7/28...

1:38 am

hi ramix

1:39 am

huga - thanks, i wouldn't have thought that was a word

1:39 am

nope

2:13 am

Hi pinecone. I'm just staring at it. It won't appear.

2:13 am

latin therefore e4

2:13 am

i am assuming it uses the cr4 steve irwin thing at the start

2:13 am

yes, but then you need a hoop after the animal

2:13 am

mkl, beast, there are two of the round letters in the word, and yes, the cr4

2:13 am

yay i found it

2:13 am

yes and a round letter after that tthen the opp of wrong

2:13 am

That's right, beast, plus the next letter of the actual word.

2:13 am

first 5 letters are the alligator, the last three are from the mineral

2:14 am

animal + hoop + mineral ending

2:14 am

silly work go6

2:14 am

That's spelling it out...

2:14 am

am watching footy while i play and it is very very close at the moment

2:16 am

I'm slow too...I'm now searching for the silly g word

Hey sprite. That's hilarious

2:19 am

2:19 am

2:19 am

LOL Ornith!

2:20 am

2:20 am

Hello All

2:25 am

that's a silly word, fran!

2:25 am

Yeah Beast, I talked to DQ right after she'd auditioned. Was really cool to hear she got the part. Awe, would love to but I don't think I'll be able to spend that much time.

2:26 am

2:26 am

2:28 am

Can someone clue me on the other 9 letter word? I have the one having to do with church.

2:29 am

K will email it. You might want ot ring DQ to see who is joining us, in case of smoking?

2:29 am

I don't mean "great green go**", btw, taz, it's sillier than that - doesn't look real.

2:29 am

mkl: if you are very good, we will help :)

2:29 am

2:29 am

I don't know how you are around cigarette smoke... tis a pub of course.

2:33 am

lol mkl, yes, that is one of the problems I have with that word...

2:33 am

Email off Beast.

2:34 am

Does it help if I say there is no A in the word? And it ends the same as a bunch of people who listen to you perform.

2:35 am

Got it. Sprite you're a wonder

2:36 am

2:38 am

gnite for now ty orn for you help

2:39 am

yw and gnite taz

2:39 am

Finally. Hit the halfway mark.

2:39 am

ramix, it is a compound (well, maybe not, but okay). First part you can carry things in. Last part is your bottom.

2:39 am

ramix, it's two three letter words stuck together, and the second one is rude

2:39 am

wtg mkl!

2:40 am

Must be firm with myself - lots to do today.[ Mutters to self 'I must not sneak back to Babble - I must not sneak back to Babble'.....] bbl

2:40 am

lol JBF... good luck!

2:41 am

Is it rude, Ornith! Okay ramix, then not your bottom, but someone else's :)

2:41 am

ah,...sprite and ornith. what a strange one

2:42 am

or alternatively a donkey carrier :)

2:42 am

I think it is alt. spelling of leftovers of sugar cane. Usually takes an -e at the end.

2:42 am

LOLOL ramix! Brilliant :D

2:43 am

I dunno ramix, I would have put them together the other way round for that

2:43 am

Just checked lickety. Not up yet?

2:43 am

Ornith: that would be the thing you put the things in. This way it is the donkey who carries :)

2:43 am

He's probably still at soccer mkl Morning all

2:43 am

wasn't last I checked, mkl. I looked when I hit halfway too :P - that's my standard for going there now that I have stats

2:44 am

exactly...and this donkey, he carries the latest kate spade

2:46 am

hey, I just found the next new thing for apple to make: the ibed!

2:46 am

Me too. I used to get half the words and consider it a win. I realized I had stats, and now I don't quit till I'm finished. Man, how addicting

2:46 am

Does BJ's list have 2nd letters? I am down to 8 and have nowhere to go.

2:46 am

hehehe ornith...i thought the very same thing!

2:46 am

yes, sprite

2:46 am

Lol Ornith. THey already made the a4, though.

2:47 am

BJ's wasn't up either when I looked a little while ago and yes it does sprite

2:47 am

Argh... now I need a list and now there isn't one? This is cruel, lol.

2:48 am

I need 2 more 6-words. How does one monkey 6-words...

2:48 am

you're farther than anyone else and you didn't even start at the flip, sprite! you don't get to complain!

2:48 am

morning all.. i heard that one of the 9's has something to do with church?..is that right??..

2:48 am

But I love to complain! Nag, nag, nag...

2:49 am

hi rolin, yes, that's right. Clergy related.

2:49 am

rolin, yes, it's di8 and 9

2:49 am

di???..ooooh i was looking for co...makes it difficult really..lol

2:51 am

sprite, do you have gr5/18...it's kinda a hard word to clue..think poetry

2:51 am

hiiii all :)

2:51 am

Lol rolin, you sound like the man who is looking for his keys next to a streetlight. And when they ask him if he is sure he lost them there, he says: "No I lost them there in the bushes, but it is too dark to look for them there!"

2:52 am

Morning rolin, your Rodin clue word is back in the grid today

2:52 am

ramix, it's a water bird

2:52 am

yeah...sad huh...?..lol

2:52 am

Oh yes, I do ramix, thanks. Hey Ata! *hug*

2:52 am

heh ornith...you would know...with your name and all...

2:52 am

Morning Ata

2:52 am

Ata, did you finish the cat and did your friend love it?

2:54 am

it got finished: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/40 111758/ but she hasn't got it yet :) I need to send to her on Monday!

2:55 am

hehe, actually, I don't know all that much about birds, it's short for ornithopter. I just happen to know that one for some wierd reason.

2:55 am

Ata, it's really incredible. It looks at me! Great!

2:56 am

Actually, with that attitude, it probably looks _through_ me :)

2:56 am

ah so ornith! mechanical bird eh?

2:56 am

yep ramix

2:57 am

it was *hard* work, but worth it!

2:57 am

I love it. She will too, I just know it.

2:57 am

that's really nice, Ata!

2:57 am

hmmph...and why isnt gooies a word...i have the gooies...you know, when every orifice is leaking....

2:58 am

I think she will do:)

2:58 am

Okay, checked BJ's and he posts with yesterday's stats that due to a change in his schedule the clues will be up 6 hours after flip.

2:58 am

ramix: try another last letter...

2:58 am

i have that one sprite...but i still believe gooies shd be a word

2:59 am

Ata, you wil love Cr8/50, I think. It's my favorite today.

3:01 am

I like the ad5/16 so far

3:02 am

Both of them and one plural, lol. Cr8: tough-skinned mineral?

3:02 am

hmm...what does do 5/16 mean? sounds like a horse's name

3:02 am

clues for the ad5(s)?

3:03 am

It is a marble, ramix. Don't forget the plural.

3:03 am

Ornith: building of brick and clay.

3:04 am

oh, geez. I missed some obvious ones tonight, didn't I?

3:04 am

ornith, spanish spice, and clay building...thanks sprite

3:05 am

You're bound too, Ornith. There are so many today ;) I am certain I am missing some very obvious ones too. Checking for plurals etc. gave me 2, down to 6 now.

3:05 am

*bound to*

3:05 am

I still need 88 :/

3:05 am

and 6 of them are 7's, which means there's no way the monkeys will find them

3:05 am

dont worry ornith, I still need 230!

3:06 am

atalante, I started at the flip!

3:06 am

oh, wait, that's not actually so bad, now that I think about it... one a minute on average, although most of them were in the first hour

3:07 am

thats definitly not bad!

3:08 am

I want Crebain

3:09 am

and sorceror

3:09 am

it's sorcerer, and yeah, popular phantom tonight

3:10 am

I know *sigh* still want it LOL

3:10 am

3:10 am

7s: Ab40, Bo55, Ce36, Co36, Co32,Cr32, Ec40, En32, Es36, Gr40, Ne40, No44, Ob40, Re32, Re36, Re28, Ro28, Sc32, Sc40, Se32, So36, To28

3:10 am

there's a lot of long phantoms today

3:11 am

thanks sprite! now to figure out which one I'm missing

3:12 am

Well, that Bo55 should be Bo44.

3:12 am

thanks sprite

3:14 am

And the Re7/28 is NOT a regular Re-word as in -again-.

3:15 am

rebed should be allowed. I rebed often during the day!

3:15 am

LOL, I am right with you, Ata. Lots of us are.

3:15 am

ok, figured out which ones I need....

3:15 am

and i debed in the morning from my ibed

3:15 am

And since we are all with you there, Ata, we cobed.

3:16 am

LOL yes!

3:16 am

3:19 am

3:21 am

hehehe, brilliant!

3:21 am

hmm that's a toughie sprite

3:21 am

don't think I know that word sprite

3:21 am

Do you have As5/12? The race one? Change first letter, then make past tense.

3:22 am

Well, I'm down to 117 left. Since lickety isn't online yet, I think I'll go do something equally fun. Like putting bamboo slivers under my fingernails. Nite all

3:22 am

3:22 am

ah...danke sprite

3:22 am

oh mkl, can I help, please? ;)

ok... re7/28?

3:24 am

Great Ata :) We are close, it is so exciting :)

3:24 am

i see lickety isnt updated.. thought it was a bit of a coincidence that there was 208 words today too..

3:24 am

its such a *lovely* design now!

3:24 am

afraid not, philod. and we've needed it, too!

3:25 am

Ornith: chymosin. Ends in protruding thing in face with other vowel.

3:25 am

I am looking at it all the time, Ata, I think I am in love, lol.

3:26 am

very apt phantom.. sergio garcia..

3:26 am

lol philod!

3:27 am

had to look up the clue word, but thanks, sprite

3:27 am

se 7/32?

3:27 am

you believe in coincidences, don't you? while I was drawing the last draft, one of my good friends was drawing this - http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/39 667774/ - completely separately!

3:29 am

That is almost scary, Ata, LOL! Synchronicity, again :)

3:29 am

yes!

3:30 am

Se6: to discriminate or distinguish in thought Se7: 3rd person singular.

3:30 am

We've got a lot of that during the creation of the tattoo, Ata. Nice :)

3:31 am

I didn't know that was a word

3:31 am

oh, i still dont get it

3:32 am

ata, do you have a link to the thing you're drawing for sprite? I want to see it now

3:32 am

ramix: Se7 usually starts Dis.

3:33 am

Once it is finished, you can have a peek, Ornith :)

3:33 am

If that's okay with you, that is, Ata.

3:33 am

exactly, Ornith :)

3:33 am

patience, young padawan etc etc etc ;)

3:34 am

i must still be asleep.. cause these clues are going straight over my head..

3:34 am

LOL!

3:34 am

aargh....total blank....all i can think of is segregate

3:34 am

it isn't that cross tattoo in the gallery, is it? that's gorgeous.

3:35 am

ramix: it rhymes with what we do with the money our jobs give us, before we spend it ;) Ornith: mine is even more gorgeous!

3:35 am

nope - that was a design I did for my best friend. She actually had it coloured in yesterday afternoon! I'm waiting for her to come onto IM so I can see photos!

3:35 am

Wow, that's also exciting, Ata! Last phase of the tattoo?

3:35 am

yup! will show photos tomorrow!

3:36 am

oh, how cool. I have a design in mind for a tattoo myself that I CANNOT draw... I can draw, but only very specific things. then again, I'm sure I can't afford to have it done just now anyway

3:36 am

Love to see the result!

3:36 am

can someone tell me how many words today please?

3:36 am

mama!! gaaah!!! can you do a 'for dummies' clue please sprite

3:37 am

philod, 278

3:37 am

278

3:37 am

I once drew a cat for my kids. My son looked at it and said, very gently: "That is a nice elephant, mom. Really."

good nite everyone - leaving meself a whopping 111 for manana

3:37 am

LOL I think I'm starting to specialise in that. "Have a tattoo design you can't draw? I'll do it for you!"

3:37 am

ata, I like your design for phedre's marque better than the book one!

3:37 am

thats a lot of words!!

bye-bye :)

3:37 am

only about 250 left :)

3:37 am

*mutters* so do I Ornith. So do most people, really ...

3:38 am

lol sprite

3:38 am

See Ata? I agree with Ornith about Phedre's marque too. You could do more tattoos ;)

3:38 am

the one on the book cover is just Not Right

3:38 am

If you have time, I'd love to discuss your doing mine, Ata!

3:38 am

the book cover one was never properly designed. the artist guy just created it without any consultation with Jacqueline Carey etc

3:39 am

and so ... yeah, its not right

3:39 am

the sad thing is that people have gone and gotten the book one for real

3:40 am

ramix: start with 'to tear apart', first 3 letters. Then repeat that 3rd letter. Then add first word of famous soup ".. the world turns" Then add vowel.

3:40 am

we can certainly discuss! my email / IM addys are in my profile! and yes, I think that's just *weird* really. A not very right Phedre tattoo ...

3:40 am

The one on the book is plain plain. Just not anywhere near the one Carey must have pictured.

3:40 am

Another big grid, so I guess I will not be playing again today

3:41 am

I'm really pestering Jacqueline Carey. Not nastily, just showing her work Kushiel work, cos I know she loves it. Hoepfully one day, she might sack her illustrator and hire me :P

3:41 am

Errrr... famous SOAP. Not soup. Sorry.

3:41 am

She will, Ata. She'd be nuts not to. I am positive she feels you resonate to what she has written.

3:42 am

oh, you have msn Ims. darn. don't have that one. will email you then... unless you have AIM as well?

3:42 am

and yes, please please pester her! that's been driving me nuts, and I really like her books.

3:42 am

have AIM! its a bit dodgy - ie works half the time LOL my name there is elegaer

3:42 am

Am having trouble waiting for the latest one to come out in paperback, going to be most of a year

3:43 am

but hardcovers are so expensive, and space is at a premium for me also.

3:43 am

my friend who has the cross tattoo has met her and talked to her a lot about Phedre designs ... she has a poster we made up of friend's tattoo Phedre style and I know her publisher likes it ... so am (probably futilely crossing fingers)

3:44 am

ok, one more clue, and I'll break 200 and stop with this for the night: to7/28

3:44 am

I would have waited for the paperback too, but friend got me a signed copy at the booksigning :)

3:44 am

*lights a candle, sends up a couple of prayers and crosses fingers too*

3:44 am

oh cool!

3:44 am

Ornith, think bull fighters

3:44 am

no wonder...sprite, you're giving me a clue for the re...i was asking for the se

3:44 am

wow Ata!

3:45 am

woot! is nice to find another person who loves the books on babble!

3:46 am

alright! less than 100 left now and no more 7+'s

3:46 am

have you read her non-Kushiel pair of books Ata?

3:46 am

noooo, I'd really like to though

3:47 am

Okay, ramix, Se7. First 3 letters 'dry' as in wine. Then "to deserve, to get (money)", drop one vowel. For the 7 make into 3rd person singular. Or try: to whom it may con.... and put another start on it.

3:47 am

they're really cool (and in paperback) - it's like Tolkein told from the point of view of Sauron's servants. And with more moral ambiguity

3:48 am

I want to read those too!

3:48 am

really? WOW! I want to read them more now!

3:48 am

But not this weekend, Ata, you've got work to do (evil grin)

3:49 am

if you lived near me I'd lend them, but... heh

3:49 am

*fingers hovering over my amazon link now*

3:50 am

finally!!! gawd i need a beer after all that effort! thanks sprite!!!

3:50 am

np, that will take 2 days at least to get them to you, LOL

3:50 am

Morning all! I have four of the 8's - CO 8:50, CR8:50, DI 8:50 and NE 8:50. Could anyone tell me where the other one is please?

3:50 am

yw, ramix, glad you got it :)

3:51 am

lol true :) *clicks amazon link*

3:51 am

Ob55, Sue.

3:51 am

hi sue! it's ob8/55, more ob7/40

3:51 am

Thanks Sprite. I shall look.

3:52 am

I have a 9 from OB - is it related please?

3:52 am

nope sue

3:53 am

Got it! Thank you very much all.

3:55 am

Almost opposite, lol.

3:55 am

sprite, given the books we were just discussing, how can you say that?

3:56 am

I want to nag. I am down to 4. I want a list! Ornith... actually I think Ob9 is Ob8 than Di4, but hey, who am I :)

3:56 am

duh...just got the gr7 word!

3:57 am

I may not have the di4 you're talking about, sprite

3:58 am

wow! go sprite go!

3:58 am

It is the slimming one, Ornith. Very Ob7.

3:59 am

lol sprite

4:00 am

why do I keep looking for obscure when there is no U?

4:00 am

I keep looking for generous on the same basis Atta!

4:00 am

Because you are a good girl, to whom all things Ob7 are obscure?

4:01 am

sprite, do u have the eg6/24

4:01 am

Missing R was R4, my husband's name in plural. Yeah, no wonder, there is only one like him!

4:02 am

Re7/36 minus first letter, ramix. I still need 3 x an S-word :(

4:03 am

they certainly all seem obscure!

4:04 am

Good morning all. Just getting started so I have a lot of catching up to do!

4:06 am

morning Haz!

4:07 am

Hi Haz!

4:07 am

(Waving to all)

4:07 am

Where are you getting your stats from? I've checked both lickety and babanon and today's aren't up yet!

4:07 am

hi Haz

4:08 am

Or it's because you have an artist's mind, Ata, that sees what isn't there and makes it into something beautiful :)

4:08 am

Sorry, I'm very rude. Should have said hi to all!

4:08 am

No stats yet, hydra, except for the babble ones. Some listings in the log though from people who have the biggies.

4:08 am

hello hydra

4:09 am

sprite is down to 4, hydra, so he knows what he's missing. the rest of us... not so much :P

4:09 am

Oh, I see! I thought I was missing out. Morning, Ornith! Or is it afternoon there?:

4:09 am

I think we're making them up as we go along, Hydra!

4:09 am

sprite is a genius!!!

4:10 am

Morning all :)

4:10 am

oh yes, that sounds better Sprite!

4:10 am

Hands up who else tried "genius"?

4:10 am

I like the babble t-shirts. Don't which colour to go for,

4:10 am

it's, um, stupid early/late o'clock here, hydra

4:10 am

7s: Ab40, Bo55, Ce36, Co36, Co32,Cr32, Ec40, En32, Es36, Gr40, Ne40, No44, Ob40, Re32, Re36, Re28, Ro28, Sc32, Sc40, Se32, So36, To28

4:11 am

copied from the log :)

4:11 am

sprite can i pls have a clue for so7?

4:12 am

*raises hand* And that while all I need are Ss.

4:12 am

ramix: even less drunk.

4:12 am

No idea there were so many. I only have the gr one!

4:12 am

thanks sprote

4:12 am

LOL

4:14 am

ah so i only need ne7 and no7...hmm

4:14 am

errr...sorry i meant sprite

4:15 am

ramix: ne: dead tissue like. No: compound, to feed a horse.

4:15 am

*to feed a horse WITH

4:15 am

dead tissue like...isn't that ne8?

4:16 am

Argh, you are right. This is person with dark skin like.

4:18 am

hmm..i'm having a hard time with the spelling of the dark person...hah...and to think i'm one!!

4:19 am

Lol, then you are SO close :) You need the 'like' ending, the robot ending.

4:20 am

Yeah, found one S :)

4:21 am

black person = 5 letters

4:21 am

yay sprite!

4:21 am

Need one 4 and one 5, bet it is a combo.

4:21 am

buggy insect = 3 letters? that equals 8....

4:21 am

ramix: add first 2 letters of a good thought, something you think up.

4:22 am

ah

4:22 am

shame on me!!! how could i of all people miss that one

4:22 am

Hehehe, too close to see? I missed my husband's first name, lol.

Crikey - 278 - and I'd been spoiled by the shorter grids. Sigh

4:24 am

From which s do your final words begin, Sprite?

4:24 am

I am monkeying like mad for the last 2, matty, so it can be done. Lots of beautiful words today!

What's the theme today?

4:25 am

Haz, from the bottom right one.

4:25 am

matty, it's playing card backs

4:25 am

I think my icon SHOULD be on the back of playing cards.

4:26 am

do you have s5 more painful?

4:26 am

Do you have male child plus vowel, then pluralised?

4:26 am

Yeah, got that one, thanks ramix.

4:26 am

sprite - do you have the unit of sound measure (s)?

4:26 am

broll, I think not! Don't know the word though.

4:27 am

See Haz's clue.

4:27 am

Haz: yes, got those, thanks for helping :)

4:27 am

Ah, same word. Alas, I have those.

4:28 am

Do you have the person/people who think they're superior?

4:28 am

If a sorcerer exists, why can't we sorcer? And that would be 6 *mutter mutter*

4:28 am

so4/4 and 5/10 - to offer oneself for bed and board (clockwise fromthe s)

4:28 am

lol sprite

4:29 am

Haz... that's it! Thanks, that gave me sparkles :)

4:29 am

Well done, Sprite!

4:29 am

Well done!

4:30 am

YAY SPRITE!

4:30 am

yay spritey!

4:30 am

wow awesome sprite

Congrats Sprite! Hi Sue, Ornith, Atalante, Haz and all

4:30 am

Okay, let's see if I can copy the list, delete some parts and put them on BabAnon.

4:30 am

Atalante, you have email, or should shortly

4:31 am

Good morning matty!

Is there something wrong with the list, Sprite?

4:31 am

no lists are up yet, matty

4:32 am

got it ornith :) will read and absorb and try and kick AIM into working later!

4:34 am

hmm...a person that administers censuses....why isnt that a word?

4:34 am

SPRITE! ORNITH! tattoo shaded - http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/40 248651/

That'll be what's wrong with the list then :D I've changed my icon.

4:35 am

What word were you trying, ramix?

Oooh - the rude Cabin Boy (who was in fact called Tom) is in the grid!

4:35 am

It is, ramix.

4:36 am

the fcc guys with the er at the end, oh you're in england...well those that replace bad words with bleeps

4:36 am

Try it with or at the end.

4:36 am

plus er at the end

4:36 am

looks great, atalante!

4:37 am

WOW! Just great, Ata!

4:37 am

isn't that amazing! woohoo!

4:38 am

thx haz

4:38 am

You're welcome!

4:39 am

ramix, the -er version has a verb - to swing around that smoky thing in a church

4:40 am

ooh...thanks ornith

4:40 am

yw ramix

Ouch Ata :D I know the John 3:16 - what's the Leviticus quote?

4:43 am

Mornin' All

4:43 am

And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD [am] holy, and have severed you from [other] people, that ye should be mine.

4:43 am

hi Odin

4:44 am

Good morning Odin

4:44 am

Hey Ornith big grid today

4:44 am

Hi Haz

4:44 am

Yep, and no lists up, though sprite finished and is working on providing one

4:45 am

2nd letter stats are on BabAnon.

4:45 am

I have just begun...good of Sprite to do that

4:46 am

May blessings be upon you sprite!

4:46 am

Mornin' Sprite

4:46 am

:)

4:46 am

Hi Odin!

4:46 am

Thanks for posting the list

4:47 am

thanks sprite! don't think I'm going to try and tackle my remaining words now - my cold is bugging me - but will help a lot later!

4:48 am

speaking of which, I really ought to sign off and try and get some sleep

4:49 am

Later ornith...feel better

4:49 am

Sleep is a great medicine, really. I should take more of it too.

4:49 am

goodnight all!

4:50 am

Goodnight Ornith -sleep well.

4:51 am

I am off too, gonna play with my kids. Have fun all and happy hunting! *hugs*

4:52 am

bye sprite and thx again

4:52 am

Bye sprite - have a good day.

4:53 am

Where is the list posted, please? Thanks for being such a good babble friend, sprite :)

4:53 am

BabAnon, General, "2nd letter stats 23-9-06"

4:56 am

Sadly, I have to get ready to go shopping. Grocery shopping. The excitement of it all. See you later!

4:56 am

u know...it's 3am here...maybe i shd catch some zzz's too

Thanks Sprite- just out if interest, does anyone know if Lickety will be publishing his stats today? (I'm bad - I find it easier when I don't have to work out where the words go LOL).

No asbo - clearly not in touch with modern British culture!

5:15 am

do you feel as if you are here on your ow mattygroves?

Yep! Either that, or I've peed everyone off LOL!

5:16 am

I'm here. Just trying to work mt way though this maze! Good morning all.

5:16 am

im here, going round and round this grid, sometimes just staring into space actually

Morning guys - looks like it's just the three of us :D Anyone have an eight or nine yet?

5:17 am

hi frances

5:17 am

hi everyone, I just got here, I knew we were in for a big one after yesterday's

5:17 am

Nope

5:17 am

Hi jg

5:17 am

its a no from me

Hi Ted!

5:17 am

is there a theme today, I need to change my icon

5:18 am

Hey Pap

Playing card backs, Ted

5:18 am

I've decided to keep mine as it applies today

5:18 am

thanks, matty, guess I should find me a deck

Hi Odin

Frances, how does your kiss apply today?

5:19 am

sn4/6

Oh yes, so it does :D

5:20 am

Hey matty

5:20 am

hope it doesnt matter if i'm not an icon changer....too lazy i think

5:20 am

Just enjoy the fun jg

5:20 am

whatever floats your boat jg

5:20 am

thanks guys

5:20 am

no pressure here except from the grids

5:21 am

cant believe there are so many words in this grid and i cant find any at the moment!

I'm not doing well either. 70 words, and no long ones.

5:22 am

im less than that!

5:23 am

am here too!

5:23 am

hi atalante, how ya doing

I'll help if I can, but I have only six 6s, three 7s and no eights or nines.

5:23 am

STUCK! thats how I'm doing LOL

5:24 am

I have an 8! ne8/50

5:24 am

how about a 7 letter challenge matty

5:24 am

Sounds like we are all having the same problem with this one

5:24 am

I have co7/36 cr7/32 and gr7/40

Can you guys clue the eight (and other sevens) - the only 7s I have are what kids get when they touch each other (especially if the touchie is unpopular) (that's co7), I have a cr7 meaning to be more angry, and an so7 meaning to be knurder (work it out)

5:26 am

Just found another ne7/40

5:26 am

ne8/50 - the state of dead flesh

thanks Ata! Got that one!

5:27 am

Good one Ata

Now..

5:31 am

matty so7 Silly question - is something to do with knots on tree trunks?

Nope. It's when you're even more knurd (spell it backwards)

5:32 am

Thank you DOH!

Now - tell me about knots on tree trunks?

5:33 am

thanks matty, success at last

5:33 am

I see that the opposite is here!

5:33 am

A knot on a tree trunk is also known as a knur

Oooh - I see. I'm alluding to Discworld.

Is that you finished, jg?

5:35 am

no way, i just meant i got a seven letter word, thanks for the vote of confidence!

I've got an ob7

5:37 am

still looking for my first one, jg and the 8s and the 9s, but then I just started.

And an ob8 (related)

5:39 am

ted, so 7/36,, think drying out after drinking and more or that...not very clear but have a go

5:39 am

thanks, jg, I'll look for it. I've only found 40 words so far so I have a loooooooong way to go

5:40 am

yay, found it, thanks

5:44 am

can I have a clue for the obs? I've been trying to find them for ages!

Gee, apparently this woman, "Being the wife of late Chief of Defence Minister Mr Gobah William of Guinea Bissau .My late husband was assassinated by unknwon military men suspected planed by the present government." wants to share $7 million with me, if only I'll help her move the money. D'ya think it's on the level :D

5:45 am

I'd go for it, matty ....

5:45 am

musical instrument atlante

Ata, the offer below could be considered ob7/40 on one level - so could a dirty movie.

I wonder what one has to do to be 'unknwon'

5:46 am

OH! ty!

5:46 am

Matty, I think you'd be selfish and foolish to pass up this offer of a lifetime. I only wish they'd contacted me.

I can forward you the offer if you like?

LOL!

5:47 am

found my second 7 letter word. co7, 36

5:47 am

no, no....that's okay, but clearly you were chosen very carefully

5:47 am

and my first 8

Clearly, Eva. What 8 did you find, Pap?

5:48 am

the plural of the co7

5:49 am

to compel

5:50 am

many who force to you to act or think in a special way

5:50 am

thanks pappou!

5:50 am

co 7/32 is body louse

5:50 am

take that forst to out, it's still early

5:50 am

oh geez, I can't type this morning, sorry

5:51 am

got it, thanks

Brill, thanks Pap!

5:52 am

thanks, pappouted!

Body louse, JG?

Never mind - you mean kid body louse

5:53 am

what little kids say when they are teasing someone, Don't touch him, he's got the co-------

5:53 am

matty, rhymes with something you put on babies feet to keep them warm

Yah - had that one (one of my first).

I just didn't connect louse with kid touching disease

5:54 am

thats what it said in dictionary

5:54 am

I was here at the flip and have just come back in--do we know if lickety's clues are coming soon/later?

Makes sense - the word must have come from somewhere.

Dunno - but Sprite has apparently posed clues in BabAnon

5:55 am

Just off to the post office. Back later

5:55 am

bye frances

Found a nine - ob9

5:56 am

clever you

If someone is a co8/50, he forces you into ob9/78

5:57 am

Anne-are you lurking?

5:58 am

does that 9 build off a small word

5:58 am

smaller word

5:58 am

pappou-you take an unruly dog to o school

It does, but not in this grid, I don't think.

5:59 am

ah ha! thanks, got it

5:59 am

oh hurrah - i've got the ob/9 *cheers*

Hi Fishy!

6:00 am

Hey matty - :) really need to go food shopping, but can't seem to get away from the grid!

6:01 am

I don't usually go to a list until I have more than half the words on my own. I still have a long way to go so I don't know the combos yet

6:01 am

the food will still be there, LOL

6:01 am

hehe... my thoughts exactly. :)

O usually only go to the list when it is there

There is a list of sorts that Sprite has posted, but I haven't checked it yet.

must be very recent posting

6:03 am

thanks, matty, I'll check it out after I find 50 more which at the rate I'm going will take all day, LOL

It's on babanon

Having said that, I haven't looked.

cr8 found...that's 4 of the five 8ssss...

6:09 am

fish, I found a gr6 that relates to where you need to go today

Thanks Pap!

That's 100 words. I am now going to get my teenage daughter up. It's 10 past noon here.

6:10 am

sounds like my niece

Found di8 & its plural 9.

6:15 am

do you have a clue for it and the cr8 that you found

6:18 am

Good morning all!

6:18 am

hi flask

6:18 am

a3 afear

6:18 am

sorry

6:18 am

are both 9's obwords?

6:18 am

my kitten says hello

No - one's a di9

6:19 am

any clues for either of them please

6:19 am

Hiya 'kitten'!!

The CR8 - not a 'gator but a cr**, then a couple of vowels, then do re me fa so la ** do

6:20 am

great clue matty, ta

For the di8/9 - think church - an area in which a church has sway is a di****** - that's not the word - but close - affairs of the area are di8/50.

6:25 am

time for breakfast, see you all later

6:25 am

by ted

6:33 am

6:33 am

6:33 am

6:34 am

whats CSI?

6:34 am

Crime Scene Investigators

6:35 am

oh right!

6:35 am

any other clues?

6:36 am

necrotide

6:36 am

adjective describing dead tissue--think of the prefix meaning dead

6:36 am

ends in ot4/5

6:38 am

thanks Unea....at last, got it!!

6:38 am

yay, flask!

I have 12 of the sevens...anyone have more? Anyone wanna clue 'em? I've seen some clues in the archive, but the re's in particular are giving me trouble.

6:43 am

morning, all

6:45 am

Matty, there is an re7/32 re+what Christ was nailed to. Did you have that one?

I do now, Cat! Thanks!

6:46 am

you're welcome!

6:47 am

re7/36 to be hypnotised and taken back in time/memories

Got that one, Fi.

The sevens I have:

6:49 am

re7/28 re+double consonant+first b***, like in baseball

ab7/40. It makes the heart grow fonder.

Thanks Cat!

co7/36 - one who forces.

6:49 am

you're welcome! That's all the re7's

6:50 am

Oh didn't have the ab7 thanks matty

co7/32 - body lice - what kids give each other, especially unpopular kids (but I'm not bitter)

cr7/21 - to be angrier. Or more perpendicular

6:50 am

LOL Matty!

ec7/40 - to murder the environment (I guess)

gr7/40 - guys who sell you fruit, veg, tinned goods and stuff. What 'shop assistants' used to be before superstores.

6:51 am

fun clues, even the hypnotize that I still did not get...

no7/44 - what you put on a horse to feed it on the move. Or what I need to catch snot, since my honker won't stop running.

6:52 am

eeeewww matty but do get better soon!

ob7/40 - perverse, disguisting. Like porn films.

6:53 am

Pam, it's like being hypnotised, taken back into "past lives" they call this re*****ion.

re7/21 - to make someone angry again. Or make them perpendicular again.

re7/36 - to take someone back, or to turn into a child again. The second part is kind of like the little green stuff you put in egg sandwiches, but with a differnt first letter.

6:54 am

thanks, cat, still don't see it

6:54 am

can u elaborate on the ec7/40 please?

6:54 am

Also think of re+ plus the ending if a female tiger?

6:54 am

but, it may be me... my head and heart have been torn apart in the last 2 weeks, so it is hard to concerntrate

6:54 am

*of not if

6:55 am

I'm sorry to hear that Pam, hope things get better for you.

re7/28 - re** Faire (what we had at Reed - people dress up in medieval clothes and stuff) plus German for what is currently running on my face (see clue for no7)

sc7/32 - people who kick balls into goals a lot.

sc7/40 - a miser. From Dickens.

6:55 am

got the clue--the tiger one, thanks... and thanks for the nice wishes

6:56 am

You're very welcome Pam

6:56 am

there is a great sc7/40 - think of a Dickens book

6:56 am

pam...try re + rhymes with what a woman can wear (dr***)

so7/36 - some who is more knurd (spell it backwards)

And the ec - think ec*warrior and infanti****

6:57 am

lol...very clever Matty!!

6:57 am

I love Dickens FM

Right, those are my sevens clued. Can anyone clue what I don't have? LOL!

6:58 am

Got it Matty...thanks!

6:58 am

Did you clue, ab***** makes the heart grow fonder?

Yep. First one I clued, Cat! :D

Good old alphabetical order

6:59 am

trees have r4/4 - make them more so for the ro7/28

6:59 am

Sorry! LOL I'm still a-huntin here, missed it!

7:00 am

HAve you got the ne7/40?

7:00 am

How about more "not drunk"? so7/36?

That's my knurd, Cat!

Thanks Fi - I have the ne8, but not the 7

7:00 am

re7/28.....Cat can u elaborate on it please....

7:01 am

and there is an es7/36 that builds off the es5

As Cat clued it earlier: "re7/28 re+double consonant+first b***, like in baseball"

Oooh - i don't have an es5...

7:01 am

The es sounds like the horse racing venue up the road from me.

7:02 am

I don't know anything about baseball!!

Well, the word contains two components, the ball and the ... ba...

Where do you live, Fi? What racing venue?

7:03 am

thanks fmitch

7:03 am

Afternoon all. I've found 'sod it' and 'ASBO' but they don't count.:)

7:03 am

Think My Fair Lady, or Royal As*** Berkshire

7:03 am

nice try jac

Oooh. Now I know (all I could think of was Epsom!)

7:04 am

got teh racetrack, but am completely stumped by the baseball

7:04 am

again, though... it is me

7:04 am

matty lol me too x

7:04 am

and there is a 3 day race meeting on as we "speak"

7:05 am

me too!

7:05 am

got the racecourse!

7:05 am

Pam. try instead of first b***, try Miltary b***, does that help?

7:05 am

pam- re+double cons+b***ball

7:06 am

yes!!!!!! thanks!!!!!!!!! was looking at the wrong consonants...

7:06 am

cod for me

7:06 am

thanks beebee, my brain is fried, thats a better clue

7:06 am

Enable's not garden-friendly; no 'godetia'!

RE** and stimpy?

Clues are up! Bit late I know!

7:06 am

thank.... you.....

7:07 am

hi, jac

Hey Lickety - you're a STAR!

7:07 am

Not a prob Lickety - thanks as always

7:07 am

yes, thanks, lickety!

7:07 am

Thanks Lickety!

Thanks matty - Normally I'm 1 min after flip - today was trying!

ok, thanks everyone else too!

So...who's going to the list then? I have 114 words, and probably will resort - but may well strech my legs first...

I'm sure I'll resort - I'm just not good enough to finish without it.

7:09 am

going to perservere without it for a while

7:09 am

got the baseball one!!!.............AT LAST!!!!!!!

7:09 am

matty - I've only just started. No list at this stage.

7:10 am

hi everyone - thanks lickety

7:10 am

Im at 162, wow I'm at 162 didn't realise I had scraped that many together (great clues in the log always help though).

7:11 am

FMitch Did you know that there is a cricket ground in the middle of that racecourse. I was there scoring a couple of weeks ago.

7:11 am

hi saph :)

7:11 am

How come I still have yesterdays list????

7:12 am

I did indeed Frances, was it moved or altered with the big rebuild?

7:12 am

No. They had to move the golf course across the road but the cricket ground stayed where it was and it really is lovely.

7:14 am

No 'debag'? Good grief!

7:14 am

Can anyone tell me why I still have yesterdays list please??

Try refreshing - shift f5 to clear the cache?

7:14 am

Sorry Flask. I haven't looked at any lists yet.

7:14 am

Yes the golf course has aparently settled very well and is already a good course.

7:15 am

The cricket ground is so quiet and peaceful. You can just see the rails of the course on the boudary.

7:16 am

I mean boundary

7:16 am

Oh well.......no list for me today!!

7:17 am

abode

7:17 am

sorry!

7:18 am

Morning, Babblers. Just a quick stab at the puzzle here before I have to run out.

7:18 am

tis okay Flask, I didn't have that yet! :)

7:18 am

Flask - sprite posted a list on BabAnon it that would help? Go to Babblers Anon then general and then it's about the 3rd post down on the list I think.

7:18 am

Good morning Judy

7:18 am

Oh well.....you deserve it....after all the help you've given me this morning!

7:19 am

ok Mitch....thanks!

Flask - I think you're suffering from a Proxy Caching problem. If Shift F5 - or Cntrl F5 or menu - Refresh, or restart browser doesn't refresh - then you need to clear your internet history. Everyone else see's it fine.

7:19 am

still doesn't explain why I can't get Lickety's tho'....

7:20 am

Ok thanks...I shall try again!

hi everyone... bit of a big grid today, nice for the weekend

7:21 am

Frances - does that mean you are fairly local to the area or do you travel all over doing the scoring?

7:21 am

hi mrp

7:22 am

Hey MrP, feeling any better?

7:22 am

I can email you the clue page if you'd like Flask

7:22 am

Hey MRP

7:23 am

eye a blurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, time for a hot drink and bed me thinks, have fun all and thanks for the clues byeeeeeeeeeeeee

7:23 am

Oh how awful MRP, the flu is terrible, hope you feel better soon!

7:24 am

{{{MRP}}}

7:24 am

LOL! Just noticed the ad for Babble tee-shirts.:))

7:24 am

Flask, where can I email it?

7:25 am

I have it copied to email already

7:25 am

8:09 am

hi Miss :)

8:09 am

LOL I just glanced down to see how many words left and my poor bloodshot eyes saw 419 and got confused, I thought there were that many left! That's just how many points I have... maybe I should tackle this in the AM.

8:11 am

sounds like it's time for bed Miss...

8:11 am

Hi Miss, stick around for a little longer. What time is it over there?

8:11 am

Oh it's almost 11PM (10:45PM to be exact)

8:12 am

But it's been a long day, my nephew slept over last night (he's 8) and the young fellow gets up at the crack of dawn!

8:12 am

Well, I guess you might want to hit the sack, then.

8:13 am

I'll stay till right at 11 LOL, unless I fall asleep and "drool" on the keyboard or something.

8:13 am

We'll probably still be at it when you get back up!!!!

8:13 am

8:34 am

'negro' isn't a word? I don't think it's a derogatory term either....

8:35 am

I tried that also and I didn't understand why it wasn't a word either

8:35 am

I think it should be

8:35 am

Take that word Charm and build on it for ne7/40

8:35 am

add the opposite of ego to the end

8:35 am

hi-- i think it's a proper noun (negro)

8:35 am

but it does take the ne7 based on that....

8:35 am

Thanks FMitch

8:35 am

Hi, FMitch and bonkler.

8:36 am

hi all, trying to grab a few words before heading to work

8:36 am

afternoon all..does any one have a clue for the di9 pls?

8:36 am

Hi Charm and all, been lurking and chatting on and off as am also working

8:36 am

that's because the ne7/40 is an adjective describing the proper noun?

8:36 am

Hi bonkler I have to go to work today also YUCK

8:36 am

8:36 am

Hi Doren :)

8:43 am

Good afternoon everyone! I see the blessed Lickety has come up with the goods.... I was on earlier this morning when the list wasn't up. I'll try to find a few more before consulting it.

8:43 am

Hi dorens, didn't mean to leave you out, had to put in that di clue before I forgot it.

8:44 am

Hi Haz

8:44 am

Hi Haz!

8:44 am

Good afternoon Haz! good to see you.

8:44 am

hi there Haz :)

8:44 am

what is your icon dorens?

8:44 am

Hi FMItch - I hadn't seen you around earlier and you went AWOL yesterday!

8:44 am

Yes, Dorens, I can find words and not feel too guilty. I notice that you are from NJ. I have a sister up in Montvale.

8:44 am

thankds pida. but the day i iget insulted by no hello's from any babble friend, i need to have my head examined (my nose is much in the grid today too)

8:45 am

Sherb! You know it's the weekend when you are here!

8:45 am

i'm in mountan lakes....not that far

8:45 am

shorty, it's a ginko leaf left over from the tree day....i just like the way it looks

8:45 am

Sory Haz flipping work got in the way, Im printing stuff now too but managing to do a little babble at the same time.

8:45 am

sure is Haz... I can indulge in Babble and Quote Puzzler to my heart's content :)

8:45 am

Oh ok thats cool thanks

8:46 am

Hi shorty

8:46 am

in fact, I have the Honeycomb on one side of the screen and the babble chat log on the other... bliss :)

8:46 am

Hi pida

8:46 am

That explains it FMItch. And Sherb - don't concentrate on quote-puzzler any more than you have been doing or your scores will go throughthe roof.

8:47 am

I've never worked out with honeycomb whether it's best to concentrate on backwards/forwards words or longer ones. It's a fun puzzle though.

8:47 am

good mornging all.

8:48 am

Hi Bloodaxe

8:48 am

Mornin Blood

8:48 am

Hi bloodaxe

8:48 am

hello Bloodaxe

8:48 am

I'm aiming for the monthly QP prize... only problem being you have to play just about every day... beginning to feel like the tyranny of daily Babbling...

8:48 am

Bloodaxe - good morning to you.

8:48 am

hi bloodaxe

8:49 am

how's the grid today?

8:49 am

backwards/forewards is the most important thing... although from yesterday there are extra points for longer words, so we'll have to see if that changes things...

8:49 am

Is the QP prize of monetary value or are you playing for pride mostly?

8:50 am

pride, completely... I think the actual prize is a book token... might not even be usable in the UK...

8:50 am

some big words but nothing really weird. yet

8:51 am

Then it's a bit like Crufts - the prizes there are of negligible value in monetary terms, but are highly sought after!

8:52 am

Haz, really nice pic of the dog....

8:53 am

Thanks Charm. It was taken to let Atalante and others see how nice she looked after being groomed the other day. She smelt great as well!

8:53 am

Nothing so pleasant as a dog just home from a bath!

8:53 am

Ours takes about 2-3 days before he stops smelling of 'wet dog' and goes back to having not much of any scent....

8:54 am

Hi Haz long time no see

8:54 am

I know - they must have a special shampoo at the groomers. I'm tempted to get some for myself, it smells so good....

8:54 am

lol!

8:54 am

Hi faeriekae! I was charmed to see Shorty's picture of you. Now I know what you look like!

8:56 am

Awwwww Shorty is a Sweetheart we had such a good time together.

8:57 am

It must have been fun! Next time, you'll have to wear your babble t-shirts and it'll be a proper convention.

8:58 am

I dont' have a BABBLE T-Shirt I want one now

8:59 am

Scroll down to the bottom of the page - they're the latest thing from Dr_GOd.

8:59 am

I will that is awsome I have to have one

9:00 am

(I'm on commission from Dr_God for every babbler I get to buy a T-shirt)

9:01 am

Do you get a free word with each sale Haz?

9:01 am

I get an early look at the grid.

9:01 am

its the witching hour here so I shall say goodnite all. Bye

9:02 am

Haz, you should have held out for the free words....

9:02 am

bye lynxxx - later.

9:02 am

LOL FMitch :)

9:02 am

Bye lynxxx - sleep well.

9:02 am

Good Night Sweet Dream Lynxxx :)

I got those (as5 and es5). TY

9:54 am

Thanks Dorens

11:15 am

Of course. I should have known those words. Use them all the time. NOT (sigh)

11:15 am

ce5/16 reverse the order of the third and fourth letters of the ce5/18 and add a vowel on the end.

11:15 am

Hi Monkey - I don't think we've met.

11:15 am

Just the 5/14 left

Curtis, I mean no offence, really. Sorry for having misclued you, and sorry for implying that you wear frocks.

11:27 am

matty dont gove iot a second thought

11:27 am

Oh, Bloodaxe, still no flag for you? Maybe Dr. God takes it easy on weekends. :(

11:27 am

the ONLY reason i brought it up is so you know for the future because i use TI in clues and i dont want YOU to be confused

11:28 am

someday I'll have a flag:(

11:29 am

thanks ank

11:29 am

OK , so how about a clue for the di 8 and 9??

11:30 am

*sigh* Give it a couple of days... maybe if no flag by Monday afternoon, you drop him a note. I just used the link at the bottom of the page, but I'd say, give him a little time. :)

11:30 am

it's an adjective describing a Catholic area/district

11:30 am

Is that a Boston in your icon, Blood?

11:30 am

inge - ot has to do with what a bishop runs

11:31 am

di8/50 - relating to church affairs, specifically a district under a bishop's authority. (praying that chj is not a church authority)

11:31 am

Haz, LOL!!

11:31 am

yes and no. She's my mothers, and her name is louise.

11:31 am

You will be in trouble if he is Haz!!

11:31 am

Excommunication looms.

11:32 am

Usually, when I'm home,I don't really like her, but for some reason she's the only thing I miss from home so far.

11:32 am

LOL Haz and Fi!

11:32 am

lol Haz :)

11:32 am

Louise is .. half Boston? "yes and no" ? How long have you been gone?

11:33 am

Doesn't look very friendly Blood....lol

11:33 am

"Do a deer a female deer" - honest I know the words

11:34 am

FMitch, in Scrabble, you can play "ut" which is, no kidding, do re mi fa so la ti ut!

11:34 am

I guess I'm persona non grata at the moment...

11:34 am

She's full Boston. She was the runt of the litter. My mother has had her for over two years now, but I haven't lived at home for about 7 years. As far as missing her, I've been in Morocco for a little over a month now.

11:35 am

how do you like it, Blood?

11:35 am

hey all, i know the di 8 and 9 but can't seem to spell it, can anyone help me?

11:35 am

Do you work in Morocco Blood?

11:35 am

I T

11:35 am

11:35 am

lol...Matty!

11:35 am

and i LOVE morocco. I'm going to school here for a year.

11:35 am

blood i think your dog is adorable

11:36 am

Oh, not long at all! Well, it's strange the things you'll miss. What I miss most about Illinois is not Chicago, but the big skies all along Route 55. Louise-ifer! That's great!

11:36 am

Ankh I will have to remember that.

11:36 am

MATTY!!!!

11:36 am

di+4th vowel+ **asar palace + *** e of mind

11:36 am

so, Blood, how did you decide on Morocco?

11:37 am

Sorry... :D

11:37 am

She looks like she's snarling Blood!

11:37 am

Fmitch, do you play regular Scrabble too? Hey, how many of us here are Scrabble fans? *raises own hand*

11:37 am

11:37 am

I play Scrabble everyday....I love it!

11:38 am

no problem - been there with simpler words LOL

11:38 am

i took a year of Arabic at my home institution and they have a partnership with this University in Morocco. I'm studying Political Science, Religous Studies, and International Studies, so Northern Africa just seemed like a no-brainer.

11:38 am

Very rarely Ankh sorry to say

11:38 am

Where are you from originally, Blood?

11:38 am

flask i Theres an on-line competitive scrabble game - free too. Do you want info?

11:38 am

wow, sounds terrific!

11:39 am

Origionaly from North Dakota matty.

11:39 am

Are you talking about Wordbiz?? Bichon

11:39 am

Wow - that's a change! North Dakota to Morocco. Any culture shock?

11:39 am

ok 121 left gotta eat see you all later...

11:39 am

I have been to Tunisia....it was beautiful!!

11:40 am

Yup. I used to play a lot before I got caught up in this game

11:40 am

seems like it would be MAJOR culture shock!

11:40 am

Bichon, I do! Wow, Bloodaxe, I am pea green with envy here.

11:40 am

actually none at all matty. I've fallen in love with everything I've seen here.

11:40 am

By Enomis

11:40 am

eons

11:40 am

family coming to visit while you're there?

11:40 am

Blood, is it hard/same for female students?

11:40 am

Bichon....my only complaint about Wordbiz...there are too many idiots......

11:40 am

haha..well you ALL are welcome to visit. I'll give you the grand tour. and if you are interested, I'm keeping an online blog of my travels...

11:41 am

and there's nothing you can do about them

11:41 am

Flask, where shall I find wordbiz?

11:41 am

my sister and brother in law want to visit from Canada.

11:41 am

google scrabble and it's there

11:41 am

down to 2 and im tired of monkeying around---ne6/21 and the last or6/21

11:41 am

thanks Bichon....

11:41 am

sere

11:42 am

Thanks, Bichon. Hey, how come no flag for you?

11:42 am

the female students have some troubles, but not on campus really. the school is segregated as far as dorms go, but the university is pretty relaxed. they run into some issues when they visit more conservative cities, or if they go to town alone.

11:42 am

How do I do that?

11:43 am

fill out profile....I think!

11:43 am

Bichon, click on "my account" and enter a country, I guess.

11:43 am

what took you to Tunisia Flask? I hope to be in Egypt for the winter break.

11:43 am

ne6 - the end of Little Ab*** and the start of the feathery duck

11:43 am

Blood, I would be bugged by not being able to go about alone, but otherwise, I would have loved Morocco!

11:44 am

thanks haz

11:44 am

you're welcome!

11:44 am

*now positively OLIVE with envy!!* I wanna go to Egypt! Pyramids! arooooo!!

11:44 am

I don't know what the feathery duck is...

11:44 am

morning all

11:44 am

type of down matty

11:44 am

It's not too bad Ank. They recommend that no international students travel alone. But the town the university is located in is very safe. It's a small resort town.

11:45 am

Think what some old-fashioned quilts were called.

11:45 am

e + apple c****

11:45 am

Got it - thanks (it's a type of spirit, isn't it?)

11:46 am

Haz, not eider... huh... stuck.

11:46 am

Hiya KL

11:46 am

Egypt should be great. I should be there for a couple weeks. My Arabic teacher from the States is from there and will be home for the break. Her son is getting married, so i may even get to attend an egyptian wedding! I'm crossing my fingers.

11:46 am

OOOH!

11:47 am

I am competely confused now with that ne6 clue.

11:48 am

ne + do ** mi + not the ego but the **

11:48 am

10 sec rule--I got it

11:48 am

ne + the first letter of what you do with a bood _ the 2nd and 3rd vowels+ a poor mark at school

11:48 am

does any one have the lat or6/21

11:48 am

DI5/14 - not the one that starts like a machine to narrate into for typing....

11:48 am

ne6 - the start of the word is the ending of a character Little Ab*** - or Little jack Hor***.

11:48 am

can any one clue the ob 9?

11:49 am

excuse me that shoud be book

11:49 am

Ah - have other people taken on my rule? LOL

11:49 am

Still looking chj for the or6

11:49 am

The OB9 - you send your dog to school for this

11:49 am

you send your dog to ob9 school

11:49 am

Bichon, you have a flag! :)

11:49 am

Yes, Matty, a rule that is so true

11:49 am

ha! no wonder i couldn't get it, i have a cat!!!

11:49 am

Wow, Matty, CHJ, I never would have seen it.

11:50 am

But still, can someone clue that di5/14 for me, please?

11:50 am

di + an army *** you sleep in

11:50 am

or plus same vowel, then the ending of the ei4/5 (duck)

11:50 am

yes ankhorite now I do

11:50 am

thanks chj-Great clue

11:50 am

go 5/16 anyone?

11:51 am

Never mind - my monkey found it

11:51 am

or6/21 the second, differs from the or6/21 the first by one vowel within the word.

11:51 am

And my monkey just found the go5/16!

11:51 am

<sigh> There are too many. I know I won;t finish today

11:51 am

hydra the deity + an alien in a movie title

11:51 am

haz there is no DER in the grid

11:51 am

I sometimes think our monkeys could finish the grid without us!

11:52 am

debs

11:52 am

CHJ, drop the "r" -- that's the possessive in the language it came from.

11:52 am

11:52 am

11:52 am

11:52 am

Thank you, Bichon

11:52 am

Oh no, Bichon has first dibs

11:53 am

11:55 am

11:55 am

tier

11:55 am

11:56 am

I love my biscuit so much. We had a Muffin, but he passed last march. He went over the rainbow bridge

11:57 am

Cherrypop, no flag for you? You can enter your country at "my account" (upper right) and it will appear automagically.

11:58 am

Automagically=-done with automatic magic. Great word Ankh

Thanks and hi, Cathyar! Oh, yeah, Bichon, it's what Freud said is the only unambiguous love humans ever know.

12:03 pm

12:03 pm

One of my bunnies sleeps in bed with me. He jumps up next to me at bedtime and when I wake up during the night he is nearby--at my head or my feet usually. And if I sleep "late" he is my alarm.

12:03 pm

So you understand, Scrabbler.

12:04 pm

do5/16 the first?

12:04 pm

Scrabbler, had no idea bunnies did that--how adorable!

12:04 pm

I cannot imagine life without him. Sebastian is the most intuitive and social bunny that I have ever had.

12:05 pm

1:02 pm

I won't hold my breath!!

1:02 pm

It's the corner R that's driving me wild.

1:02 pm

3:49 pm

also looks good except for the chicken, right?

Yeah, I suppose.

I was pretending it was tofu

Moroccan tofu

3:49 pm

ok. good. i was worried that portland had changed you.

I don't think Portland could possibly make me LESS vegitarian

The other day there was a vegan bbq on campus

3:50 pm

thanks, Aloyisius, for the se6 (just stepped away to supervise the 4yo).

3:50 pm

haha..right. if anyplace can make someone vegetarian, portland is the place.

Keeping quiet (for a change!) here and trying to catch up on lost grid time...

Hey, play nice guys.

lol

8:10 pm

2nd se6/18 please

8:11 pm

8:12 pm

Jacula ProfileUnited Kingdom Mercy - you might have a parking se6/18 on your car that bleeps when you get too close to something. (It sounds like someone who decides what can and cannot be watched on TV and in the cinema.)

Good question, bloodaxe!

8:12 pm

haha..thanks gwen!

8:12 pm

the word i couldn't but in was an 'n' word. it's the only word i've encountered that i find truly impossible

Like the spanish Mr, but w/o an i

8:13 pm

Can't believe I'm asking for this, but how about bi5,14? Just sitting here staring

8:13 pm

Jacula, can't get the se6/18 even with your clue

8:13 pm

hillary - best not to use grid words in posts, where possible, but I realise you want to make a point. The dictionary doessn't allow 'dunny' either, as we found out yesterday.:(

8:13 pm

thanks snp.

8:13 pm

2 to to.... probably right in front of my eyes - but eyes are crossed: so5/14 (after soft drink) and first to 6/24

Must just be a language barrier thing.

8:17 pm

Bloodaxe - I'm not sure if what you just typed sounds normal or perverted. ROFLOL.

8:17 pm

there isn't too much of a language barrier. all classes are taught in english so they understand. I think it's just more of a cultural barrier. and yes jac. the people here are beautiful.

8:19 pm

bichon - se6/18. See my clue to Mercy earlier.

8:19 pm

thanks Jacula, not sure I can sit here that much longer. will take a break and come back later.

8:20 pm

any clue for an6/24?

8:20 pm

Good idea, peri. The grid looks much clearer after a break.

bichon for the se 6/18 take the last letter of the one before and put it in the fourth spot

8:20 pm

jacula - got it thanx

So7,36 is to be more of so5,14

8:38 pm

8:39 pm

oh, and reverse the vowels. doh!

8:39 pm

gwenski - my other half is sometimes very useful for finding Babblets, since he's mildly dyslexic. Mind you, I wanted to kill him the day I'd left one word to find and the found it and put it in! It was like someone tearing the last page out of a good book! He's not made that mistake again. LOL.

8:39 pm

2nd sc7?

8:39 pm

ebenezer

8:41 pm

AHH. I switched a couple letters and got it. Thanks heathen

8:41 pm

i was wondering why people were typing ebenezer all day (LOL) Merci!

8:41 pm

Jacula - Mine can find words too, but it's frustrating to me when he starts calling out random words, without looking to see if I need them.

8:41 pm

Mercy - bo5/18 & plural 6 = a narrow stretch of water. Thing 'morass' or 'marsh' (or slang word for toilet + a little Princess Royal.

8:41 pm

enomis, LOL!

8:43 pm

Sweet revenge is whipping him at Boggle, tho.

8:43 pm

to 6/18?

8:44 pm

Enomis - Out with my old schoolfriends in a Fench restaurant (so-called) earlier this evening, we decided to speak only French to the teenaged staff. Their French accents (speaking English) sounded so false.

8:45 pm

LOL Jacula! Merci

8:46 pm

If any true French chef entered that restaurant and ate there, he would be apoplectic, as was this UK cook. How is it possible to make canard stringey??

8:46 pm

to6/18= bullfighter

8:47 pm

choco covered go****s are great at pirate movies

kalea, the di 8 and 9 pertains to the congregations headed by a bishop in the Catholci church. You might recall reference to the word when the priest scandal was going on .... both words require a vowel change at the end

10:11 pm

Figures

10:11 pm

We will have a huge cake - we dare not have candles for all of us on it though; we may burn Dublin down! When we are 60, were are partying in purple hats on bicycles with baskets and will shout at everyone in the street... LOL.
