BabbleStats (run for the hills!!) 9 - 4 8 - 9 7 - 28 6 - 68 5 - 118 4 - 154 ----------- total: 381 ---------- A - 17 B - 49 D - 41 E - 15 i - 11 M - 13 N - 9 O - 11 P - 31 R - 39 S - 80 T - 56 V - 9 I have saved the list and I am happy to post some breakdowns of the bigger letters... would ike suggestions about how to do it without giving away too much information - first two letters? Word length? What's your preference?
I found some! Three of the four nine-letter words are related.
the first two lettes would be nice
381????? eeeeep *80* Ss?????? eeeeeeeeeeeep
Atalante - that is very similar to what I thought... I figured if I get the Vs, Ts, and Ss (which will be 145) I'll be happy..... But actually almost all the S words are in family groups so once you see one you are likely to get quite a few.... 134 words 4.91 1778
i think the most helpful at first would be a breakdown by word length...at least for me. :)
OK *rolls up sleeves* I'll give this a go ...
I've rolled up my sleeves and given it a first go. It's not a bad first go, but completing this puzzle seems near impossible. Did find all the Vs though! That's my only completed letter so far. And no 9s. 2 8s and 13 7s though, with 278/3418 so far. All clues welcome at this point! I'll put some together for what I have in a few minutes.
Good morning everyone! I'll post word lengths for S's and T's...
Its 16-24pm in Manchester
im trying to work on the harder letters first, but i think the prospect of so many words is actually causing me to find less than usual!
It's 8:30 in the morning for me here in California. S's 8 - 1 7 - 5 6 - 16 5 - 28 4 - 30 T's 8 - 1 7 - 4 6 - 8 5 - 19 4 - 24
I know same here
A couple of 8s and a few 7s so far: 8-45 D - givers 8-55 P - preached 7-40 A - caused to stop 7-44 D - lowered in quality or value 7-40 D - lowers in quality or value 7-32 D - most thick or heavy 7-36 D - gave 7-32 D - gives 7-32 D - giver 7-40 R - gave back money 7-36 R - a means by which money is given back (plural) 7-40 S - impaled for cooking 7-32 S - a person on his feet 7-32 T - proceeded rapidly 7-40 V - most expansive
P/7/44 - hobby P/8/55 - hobbies
P/7/40 - caters to the lower tastes and desires of others
P8/60: activities that occupies one's spare time pleasantly
Except for the point difference, the P8/60 and P8/55 seem the same.. are the related?
My bad - I copied wrong. It's 60 points, not 55.
dang, i actually thought i had one you guys didnt...hehe
testing: could the D7/40 and D7/44 you have also be defined as "To engage in argument by discussing opposing points" ? (just wanna make sure i am crossing off the right words)
I can add: D7-44 and D7-40 - to deliberate or engage in argument S7-40 1) spawned or 2) quarreled with R8-55 to revive or restore this 8-55 is a combo with three of the 9's!
evanadine: they're two separate pairs of words, really close in spelling
okie dokie...i didnt think testings clue was an alternate meaning, but i wanted to make sure. :)
S8 - 50 S7 - 36 S7 - 40 A form of boxing The S8 is a plural of the S7 36, it either has something to do with acid or is an odd spelling of a desert :)
Taglos - I think you mean "dessert" in your last clue. ;) Good word though!
gah, I always do that :) Sooner or later I'm going to get a big plate of sand after dinner!
Or go trekking though some chocolate mousse on camel back! :-D
mmm..mousse... gotta put a cake in the oven before this day turns totally unproductive! 7-36R - that stiff wire collar thing you always see on dresses of Queen Elizabeth I.
cant figure out any of taglos' last round of clues...and still working on the S7/40 from before..."impaled for cooking" got all the rest so far though! i dont think ive ever found this many words in a puzzle before...hehe
any clues for the dessert please
As jlm_mi taught me, chemistry words usually end in -ite, -ate -ose (sugars) -ase etc. That's how I found the "dessert" word.
It's an acid, not a dessert in reality. But it does look like a dessert, so the funny clue makes sense, but more after the fact. :) It's an acid that you've likely seen on food packaging if you are an ingredient list reader like me. Maybe that's why it's easier for me to find the chemical words! :)
ahh, got it...hehe...now im hungry for the lime flavor!
Hopefully I won't confuse as many this time :) T7/40 - Played on a little drum. T7/36 T8/50 - A small, shallow drum The T8 adds an additional letter to the T7/36. I think it's related to an instrumet we'd be more familiar with. While being a drum of sorts it has jingling discs in the rim.
Well, haven't found those drum words yet, but they got me thinking drums and I found a T/7/44. It's singular of a drum you typically hear in plural form. A kettle drum.
Oooh - You can almost make tsetse. :)
which means you can almost make testes...haha
Got the drum words! I had the T5/14 related already, took me a bit to realize the rest were there.
evanadine - Think more singular. ;)
I want to make oneder. You know, the one-hit "One-ders" from "That Thing You Do". LOL!
BA - 23 BE - 3 BO - 13 BR - 10 DE - 16 DO - 25 SA - 21 SE - 6 Si - 7 SN - 3 SO - 14 SP - 16 ST - 13 TA - 13 TE - 10 Ti - 5 TO - 20 TR - 8
Krys10 - I think I love you! :-D
My goodness, that's nice to hear!
Thanks Krys! The first two letters should make tracking down the couple of S and R words I'm missing easier :)
cant find the drums and I am missing a 9, I have 3R9s a clue for missing one would be helpful. Thanks
I don't know if anyone's found the last nine yet. No posts that I remember.
I think we've suffered long enough: 9 (i, rx3) 8 (dx2, ix2, px2, r, s, t) 7 (a, b, dx8, ix2, m, px2, rx3, sx5, tx4, v)
Re4 x 4, Re5 x 1, Re6 x 5, Re7 x 3, Re8 x 1, Re9 x 3 Ro4 x 10, Ro5 x 8, Ro6 x 4
Doh - I had a BA6 all along that I didn't pluralize. So that makes the BA7 for 40 points. It refers to people who have formed a group together. Or it could also be someone who adds decorations to hats and cigars. ;)
Found 3 (related) of the big i words. i/7/44 - to paint by applying thick layers of pigment i/8/65 - did the above painting i/8/60 - does the above painting
7/36/M - cell division process
Actually, that should read "cell division processes".
the other seven and the nine i words are the same meaning, different (italian) spelling.
D/8/60 - Tough to give a meaning without using the word. To remove from something (past tense). A form of it's opposite would be used to describe paper towels. With a D/6/27.
interesting found a p 8
4t8 - I think all the 7s, 8s and 9s have now been hinted at in the log, all with meanings and points, I believe.
Having trouble finding the D8
people who give away things
thanks
Is there another D8
Missing an A if anyone can help. AB4x2, AB5x2, AB6, AB7 AI4, AI5 AN5 AP4, AP5, AP6 AS4, AS5 AT4 AV5
@Treble99 There are 2 D8 words, check these two posts for the clues. 03:59 pm 02:54 pm
