got the 10
119 points
Ok, *gotta* go to bed. Starter list for teh biggies: 10/119 i 8/70 i 8/75 S 8/55 O (two eights missing) 7/32 A 7/44 E 7/44 H 7/28 N 7/36 O 7/40 O 7/56 W (six sevens missing) Too tired to come up with definition hints now - in the morning!
1 to add ... S7/44
a second W7/56
I cant find the I 10
i still have a lot of them to find, but i havent found the 10 yet either
10 for 119 - i
How does this work? Can I use any tiles? Do they have to be in order? Or can they be completely selected from random on the board?
serenade - the tiles you use in each word must be touching (top, bottom, sides, diagonally) and you can only use each tile once per word
thanks, I found the rules.
when you say you haven't found the 10 does that mean there's a 10 letter word?
Check out the first posting, seranade. it lists how many words of each length and how many words of each starting letter. the i10/119 is related to the S8/75.
yes it is worth 119 points
... and an S7/52.
thanks for the help
i10/119 relates to 8/70i i8/70 put away a blade S8/75 put away a blade O8/55 stubborn, hardened (two eights missing) A7/32 several definitions: 1) resembling gold 2) having ears E7/44 put underground H7/44 1) encouraged or 2) what the tin man aspired to be N7/28 (pl) characteristics or qualities O7/36 1) more indirect or 2) an angle closer to 180 deg. O7/40 (arch) to have penned superior literature S7/44 (for most of us) moved toward the equator S7/52 related to S8/75 W7/56 ranted ? W7/56 squirmed (three sevens missing)
thanks for the clues Krys!
A 7/32: supplied with oxygen
The other 8s are variously spelled courtesans.
And there is a 7/H/40 that goes with them. (The 8s are both H/55).
ok, i need to work on all 3 of the "courtesan" words. also need to keep working on the N7, the )7/40, and the S7/52. any news on the last 7?
4.93/3643
Found all the H words - thank you, Forthright's Phrontistery! Ricey, what was that last 7 we were looking for?
krys: id never heard of that site before, just checked it out and its fab!!
So I am short one elusive B. Can anyone help? Ba4x7, Ba5x4, Ba6 Be4x3, Be5 Bo4x2, Bo5 Bu4x2, Bu5x2, Bu6
Amazingly, I can! I'm still missing 6 Bs, but you're missing a BH4. :)
ah, didn't occur to me the second letter might not be a vowel. Thanks, testing!
i could use some help on the N7/28, O7/40, and the S7/52...havent found any of the Ns yet, actually...
If those are the only big ones you're missing, then you've already got the S/7/52. It's a part of another word. ;) For the O - consider a contest among authors (akin to a pie-eating type of contest). The winner would be said to have "O******" the others. It's a bit archaic, but does make sense and isn't totally obscure. The N is plural of an N6 which is a very common, everday type of word. Think outdoors. The third N is an N5/10 that appears in these puzzles pretty often.
all i have of those is the S. Think about how one carries a sword.
ahh, i had the S6 version of that word...didnt know about the variable in spelling!
ok, got the O7, now i just gotta work on the Ns...none of them are popping out at me, so i think i gotta noodle! hehe
I believe the 6 is the noun and the 7 is the verb.
ahh! finally got the N6/7 combo! one of those *DUH* moments! gonna noodle around for the N5 now!
The last 7 is a D/44--it's an obscure spelling of an obscure cereal grain that's shown up here before--play with a gloomy D4 to find it.
(and three shorter variation(s))
BTW - My 6/7 verb/noun statement below is about the S words - not the Ns, in case it confuses anyone. :)
ahh, that makes sense then, testing :)
hrmmm...this D7 is gonna drive me bonkers, isnt it? hehe
my goodness, you guys have been productive over the last hour! I'm close to finishing the H's and the O's: OBx3, OUx5 (missing one) HA4x7, HA5x5 HE4x2, HE5x3, HE6x2, HE7x2, HE8x2 Hi4x1, HU4x1 (missing three) Can anyone help?
There are Oux6--one does not share the others' third letter
HA4x8, HA5x6, HE4x3 You're missing an OU. I have 1x5, 4x6 and 1x7.
Much thanks to you both!
i thought there were only five eights?
sorry, nevermind, i can't read.
Yep.
Hee hee - that was in response to your question - I'm not saying you can't read! :-D
OK, I'm going to do a dump of all the letters that I'm still missing something. I'm only missing 1 or 2 of each, so hopefully they'll help someone. And hopefully someone can help me. :) AA4 AB4x4, AB5x3, AB6 AE6, AE7 AR4x3 AU4, AU5x4, AU6, AU7 DE4, DE5x2, DE6 DO4x4, DO5x4, DO6x3, DO7 DU4x3, DU5x2 RA4x6, RA5x3 RE4, RE5x3, RE6 RH4, RH5 Ri4, Ri5 RU4x5 SA4x2, SA5 SE4x3, SE5, SE6x2 SH4x2, SH5x4, SH6x2, SH7, SH8 SN4, SN4x2, SN6x2 SO4, SO5, SO6x2, SO7 SU4x4, SU5x4, SU6x3 TA4x7, TA5x3 TE4, TE5, TE6 TH5, TH6x2 Ti4x2, Ti5, Ti6 TR5x2 TU4x2, TU5 TW4x2, TW5
You're missing an AR5. you've given me what I needed too, A-wise.
RA5x4
And that led me to an RA6. :)
I'm missing a ton of S's, but I have SA5x2
Found the last D: DU4x4
Doh - That was easy once you said so. Why don't they appear the first time you look????? So, that leaves for me a T5 and a T6 that add up to 39 points.
Nope, make that 38 points.
TU5x2
and TA6.
can anyone give a clue for the AU6 and Au7 please.
Treble99 - this is a golden clue ...
Bah! I have a paper due on Friday!
treeshar! papers are for suckers. especially when there's babbling to be done.
Well, my paper is babble, so there you go. If I were to take my paper, and put it up in a 5 x 5 grid, how many coherent throughts do y'all think you could make out of it?
