:-) I am a tree... I can bend... This grid is better than yesterday's, though.

hello gardenboy29

biggest word so far is a 7-40

sprite

12:53 am

65 words and nothing above 6... I am not having my day.

BabbleStats 70x 4 37x 5 12x 6 (efffhiiiistt) 4x 7 (ehpt) 2x 8 (st) ======= 125 ======= a5 e4 f29 g6 h5 i11 J2 n8 o1 p10 r3 s18 t22 y1

So these two monkies walk into a bar in Kajikastan and...oh forget it.

I'm just trying to distract myself from the ridiculous score i have aquired

sprite

Wow shortseer, what great stats! Off to hunt for those 8's... now that I know they must be in here somewhere! ;-)

too late. my eyes are drooping, maybe i'll try tomorrow.

i wish peignoir would work

yeah, that's more impressive than ...well I don't get out much so...well that's really impressive!

I only wish Ysintofort would work...

S8/55 is an alternate spelling for a word I wish I could make with that d*rn Y.

ok, i lied i wanted to find just one more word, but maybe i really am sleeping, i don't see an a on the grid but there is one in the stats, i'm confused

oh for an edit button ... that a should be a c sigh sorry!

sprite

1:14 am

I think the A must be a C.

sprite

1:15 am

Okay, ready for the other 8? T8/40: ice creams made of heavy cream often with minced almonds and chopped maraschino cherries and often flavored with rum. *lol* Quite a def!

thnaks , i would have figured that out in the morning

hey sprite... a clue on that s/8/55?

mmm icecream ... wanders off to get some ...

sprite

1:20 am

S8/55: instrumental composition serving as an overture. But in lousy spelling. No Y. No PH. Not even an A at the end. I am pretty sure that if I ever handed in my homework with this word, it would have cost me points.

oh thats bizarre... what a spelling

sprite

1:27 am

Yeah.. I forgot to mention: also no M. *lol*

sprite

1:29 am

H7/40 P7/48 T7/28 (combo with the 8)

sprite

1:39 am

E7/40

I thought the ice cream with almonds cherries and rum was spumoni

sprite

1:44 am

spumoni: an Italian ice cream having layers of different colors or flavors and often containing fruits and nuts. You are definitely on the right track. Hmmm... time for breakfast.

ok, I got it. I knew spumoni fit the description. Guess there was another name I didn't know about. I'm surprised at myself- I try to keep track of all ice cream flavors :)

sprite

1:47 am

Babble is a great game... learning something new every day! *lol*

Can't play. Have to go buy some ice cream. Even if it's -10 degrees Celsius here and some snow on the ground. Sini

Hi sini ! hey it's quite 'cool' in sydney too (20C) :)

sprite

2:06 am

See? I've learned! That crazy word meaning "having a large bosom and pleasing curves" is back and I found it!

periwinkle

2:45 am

sprite, what letter does it start with?

sprite

2:46 am

It starts with S. And it has two spellings, a 6/18 and a 5/16.

sprite

2:48 am

5 more words, only 4s and 5s, only Ss or Ts... almost done!

sprite

2:53 am

Wrong and dumb... I forgot the 4 of the N4/5 combo. 125 words / 4.65 / 1483 points. Thanks shortseer, your stats made this much more fun!

Hello Babblers - it's cold and frosty today, just the day to be inside and playing. I've got stuck with another 30+ words to find!

Wow, Sprite, you are right. What a weird spelling on that musical composition

fnurt

1:55 pm

Can anyone share point values for the 6's? I don't even have half of them so far.

fe 6 27, fi 6 39, i 6 18

to 6 21 sorry that's all i have so far. hope it helps

fnurt

2:05 pm

Thanks for the help! There is another T6/21 that is very close to yours.

A clue for the E7 would be helpful

fnurt

3:03 pm

The E7 is 40 points, it ends with a 4/5.

fnurt

3:15 pm

I am still looking for the E6, H6, and the 4th I6 (I have IG 6/21, IN 6/18, IN 6/18).

fnurt

3:26 pm

The last I6 is also an IN for 18.
