Thanks, freep. Stoopy
nope, not stoopy
Sorry!
close though....
as if that could be a word. The words tonight are all super normal and familiar :-)
freep, not the ones i gave stats for. they're weird as.
I'm kidding
that was more a word than many of these. I feel like it's a drinking game - like someone was drinking and made up words
oh. now i apologise. apparently my sense of humour has left the building.
Eh. There's no tone of font in chat. No apologies.
fastest I ever did a grid
now I can sleep :)
whew. FW. a po5 to finish. odd grid, indeed.
Can't get that st6!
plural gadget of verandah or bend
I need a g5 and a w5
Oh man. Sorry I missed that! Was just jealous everyone was knocking this grid off so fast!
think of Gwyenth's product line and her website
g5 comes off the sticky word
anike do you have the time teller ?
Thanks ursh - I needed that.
Got that one...must be another
Yes urchin
Sorry rush

My tablet is making up it's own words
anike - both g5s come from there (and made up words might work today!)
How silly of me!!!
All done now. Thanks

that was yesterday
oh sorry

lolll....lickety....thanx mate.
tyvm granny
oh, man! all that work, thank you, GR!
np's. sense of humour restored. grinning here.
the comedic timing could not have been better.
i love touches of irony like this.
i know Q.
I was late today due to more fun and games on the PC = trying to enable a background way of sending things to the printer from an iPhone without having an Air Print compatible printer. :)
better late then never! thank you, Lickety, for continuing to exist.
of course you are, lickety. wouldn't be you if you didn't want to do that.....loll...
I don't mind you being late, personally - I kind of like the time when we're left to our own devices. :D
FW
but eventually the lists are inevitably highly appreciated.
congrats, aeb!
goodnight all...zzzzzzz
yay, done, too. laters! :D
Two things worth mentioning. There is another list site, made by a Babble player: https://tinyurl.com/vsjxqbr
ARB has instructions in her profile on how to create a list on an Excel spreadsheet. It takes much less time than typing it all out in the chat. Go to RANKINGS, do a CNTRL + F, type in ARB. To find the profile.
I will see if I can put the instructions in chat, without it blowing the chat width.
Instructions for putting babble grid results into profile: • Copy word list into an Excel spreadsheet (the word, the number of letters and the points go into 5 columns (because of ? for dictionary). • Copy the first word,letter and points into the columns B,C,D, so that everything lines up. • Then insert a column after the word. • Then write a formula in the first line after the word, example - " =left($B1,2)" (the $ makes the formula absolute) • Then copy the formula all the way down (put cursor in bottom right of the top cell with the formula and drag down to end of word list). • Voila you have 3 columns with first 2 letters, length, points

oops...
libarebel, you're posting in the chog!
Could I get the stats for the 2 'c's in column 2 and the lone 'v' in column 3, please?
Found the
Found the 'v' thanks
Found the 'c's as well thanks
It's kind of funny when someone says oo4 for posting in the chat and oo4 is a word : D
Yes, it is.
You can go through the chat and do the entire puzzle.
The flip was kind of trippy today, wasn't it
Looks like it.
We have had five inches of rain over night and it is still raining, hard.
Wow Bea, you must be at the "enough is enough" point
I'm getting there...
Good grief, Bea!!!
I dumped the rain gauge yesterday. It had five inches in it since Monday,
Could I please get a clue for the st9?
compound word, Marc
Pretty easy on to find
The first word is st4 and the second word is a 5 letter work correct?
Yes.
got it thanks
Not me! Can you clue further?
You use it to time something
st4 plus what Molly said
OY! TY!
No, you actually use an st9 to time something
Track coaches use them all the time
FINISHED! VERY EXCELLENT!
Congrats!!
Tx for st9!
I guess poopy isn't a word in enable
I was so disappointed it wasn't. I use it all the time.
and you have to have boogy to make woogy work
If you have a boogy, go get a tissue
that's snot funny
II laughed Molly
just being nosy in the chat today
What is green and stands on one leg? A phlegm-ingo
oh I can't hack this
i figured out the 9 is an s
Because it is our last one or because it was clued in the chat...
Nothing gets by you, Ru
do we need to a-bridge bthisnasal chat
it's my last one
yes its st9 ru. a compound word
I predict you will say some version of "damn, how did I not see that" when you get it
and i had the wa.. jeeeez
In my defense.. I never ran track
I'm pretty sure they use them at swim meets too.
And football coaches use them for various things.
I should have played football in high school.
I think it has stopped raining for now. Need to see if Emma will go out...
See you all tomorrow.
One of my sons wanted to play football in high school. I made him go to football camp so he could see how much work it was going to be. He changed his mind.
i'm not afraid of hard work. it might have been fun.. but I was more of a hippie in those days and the sports crowd weirded me out
The hard work gets harder around here when you have two a day practices in 90 degree weather with high humidity
well that I could not do.. i wilt in humidity
I don't know how anyone does it. I would pass out.
any clue for the st9?
nm...got it
i used to play tennis in the heat of the day 100-105 degrees, but we don't have humidity out here
You're so lucky!! Humidity sucks!
I always wanted to live in a humidity free place
not me bichon. you gets wrinkles
my skin dried out when I moved to DC from Houston
hi all
You can alway lotion up.
yay I gots a 9 all by myself . . . well with a little help from Ouwa
what? there's a 9 in this mess? just got here.
my skin is super dry in the humidity even. can't imagine it with no humidity.
I am with you hokie. I prefer a little humidity to cracked dry bleeding lips
yes there is a 9
but I do hate being out in it
I do prefer the high heat with no humidity to lower heat with high humidity for outdoor activities
Since I don't use A/C out in humidity is not that big of deal
3rd row finished! ;)
wtg hokie I am just puttering along
2nd column done!
1st column done!
14 left, some of these are hard
haha I still have 27 left. . .

ty, car
take off one of the last vowels for the to 4/5
tope
Exactly!
oh
a small one
eek, sorry
thanks car. appeciated!..FW!
wEll done!
yay, Flask
This is such a small grid, if people keep posting their words in the chat, we might have all the words in the grid. WITHOUT JMC posting her word list. : D
I havent done that in years!!!! [blush]
Oh Molly stop it!! Its a game...and everyone can play however they want without you cracking your great big whip!! As for giving clues and asking for clues....you do it just as much as the rest of us.....but of course, we all understand that it's for your favoured clique....which is fine...but don't feel free to criticise the rest of us!!!
Molls was just teasing Flask
I, for one, am grateful for the clues!
can i have a clue for the v please?
And she said nothing about clues, She was joking about putting the answerrs in the chog.
va + you in Spanish
I am too. And I respectfully disagree, jmc. Molly is always ranking on people for askng for clues, and complaining when people do. She could choose to shut the chog off, as others do. But she is somehow ALWAYS here.
thank you!
jmc. The very last sentence was a tease at you....the rest was yet another big dig at the rest of us!!
hear, hear flask!
she wrote: This is such a small grid, if people keep POSTING THEIR WORDS in the chat, we might have all the words in the grid. WITHOUT JMC posting her word list. : D
so maybe y'all are a little thin skinned today. not saying what she does other times.
but since we are all under pandemic stress we should all cut each other some slack. I was not offended and wrote [blush] as humor not actual embarassment.
and sorry I missed Whoo hoo for flask
Come on folks, Molly wasn't saying anything about asking for clues. She was just teasing jmc about the time she copied her whole word list into the chat lot.
OMG jmc...read what you've just written...YOU are not mentioned until the last SIX words....and that was aimed at you...yes....we all appreciate that part was a joke TO YOU...but not the first part!!!
and copying the word list happens occasionally, by accident
and BTW it was a really loooong list
Flask you read what I just wrote she said noting a thing about clues
and it is always funny
I wish I had witnessed it, jmc. It is legendary :D
copy and paste where she used the word "clue"
haha saan I nearl died from embarrassment that day but everyone was lovely about it
again, respectfully, I am siding with Flask here, I feel Flask's reaction is probably a culmination, as mine is. A lot of us are sick and tired of being sniped and never "quite" mentioned, but aimed aid with dig after dig and complaint after complaint. The chog is not the happy place it once was, and it is commonly known why that is.
MANY people are absolutely fed up with it.
so babble lives matter?
hahahah
be fed up when it happens. be kind and forgiving when you can
Thanks Trif....am feeling so exasperated now....it just takes the fun out of the game...
tu et n'est pas seul, flask mon amie
oast
oops. sorry!
I am sorry if I added to your frustration flask. I believe that a cheerful answer and ignoring the rest is a way to have a happer Babbleland.
tsk trif penalty box for you!
twice! haha
there is champagne in the PB today to cheer us all up
I know, I know...hope there is still some reisling in there from the other day....and for the record jmc? Many of us have been "looking the other way" for so long now that it's untenable, and too many good people have left, do to the endless negativity.
<--- contemplates typing a word into the chog just to get a glass of champagne.
well slap my mouth and call me Merry Sunshine. I have spent many years in more negative places than Babbleland. Being a leftist/liberal woman lawyer is not all beer and skittles. I have learned to refuse to be driven away.
I thought about that too origami
ask Trif to slip you a glass
y'all know it's only virtual champagne, right? lol
me too
come on in the pb, it's great in here!
Yes, trif. Please pour us all a glass :D
virtual champagne is better than no champagne! hahah
you lonely in there Trif?
dearests, I have been in isolation for going on 8 days. I am drinking ALLLLL the champers myself!
*grabs some glasses and passes them around*
When will you be released, Trif?
I'm certainly lonelly in isolation! two more days, hopefully....
took second test today, should have results by friday
Be kind and forgiving you said JMC....however there is a limits as to how many times we can be expected to do it
good luck
now now I was in isolation for 10 days and quarantine for by myself for months
70 times 70 as I recall flask
same. it's not fun
trust me, jmc, that marker was passed months ago. we have archives to prove it
aww Trif,,, I couldn't take isolation.. I'm sorry to hear this
i brought a jigsaw puzzle and a sewing project in with me, and the hubs has brought the goats to the window a couple of times a day....the hardest part BY FAR was existing solely on hubs-supplied foodstuffs. He is a NICE, nice man, but the cooking? god help us all
*Psst...JMC...it was just a joke to you about the time you posted your word list in the chat* Everyone else, enjoy the champagne.
watched some fantastically girly British television, read three books.....the time passed
I know Molls.
Well Trif I am glad you are not alone when you were out of isolation.
the HARDEST of ALL part was not being with the rest of the coven when my mums gravestone was installed. but I couldn't go - doctors order
thank you jmc
The hardest for me is not getting to hug or kiss my boy when he brings me groceries. I am so ready for this to be over but I have friends (including a Babbler or two) who are medical personnel and I am not willing to make their life harder so I stay home alone.
I can't even imagine, jmc. I know so many providers who have been alone for MONTHS now. I just can't imagine it.
I am making protective gear for one of them who is in charge of a clinic for immigrants and low income. She want gear she could wash rather than the disposable gear. She gives the masks I send to patients.
yup. that would be hard. when mother died, we did an immediate family only get together, waited a few weeks for the burial service so everyone could get cheap airfares, but that was several years ago.
Oh dear, MOLLY YOU JUST NEVER GIVE UP, DO YOU! everyone in here knew the last sentence was a joke to JMC.....but the first pat was not!!! You were not all involved in the conversation .....so you've obviously been watching the chat and decided to jump in.....that was no coincidence.....
and you could have let it go too flask. she spoke to me. There is no private room here. She doesn't have my email and isn't on FB. Take a breath.
which of you remember the troll that catfished us and nearly destroyed Babbleland?
I have 18 left and am taking a break
JMC...she's a very clever woman and knows what she's doing!!!
I think I know that one you mean, jmc.....the british boy? sometimes I suspect he has returned in yet another new identity
I think he was a celebrity Trif....
he certainly thought he was, lol flask
Trying very hard here to remember his name...
always the "poor innocent victim" that one - oh, the endless rants through email and on his webpage! "All i did was make an innocent comment, and I was attaaaaacked!"
don't bother, flask, he is not worth remembering
so... when I rent a waterslide for the kids' bday(s) this summer, do you think I should get the 27'Hx61'L or the 18'Hx46'L that I normally get? We grownups are not spring chickens anymore, lol.
OK...:)
none of his comments were ever innocent either. NONE. zero.
it was initials, as I recall.....
but I am not spending any more time thinking about him.
Is it BR you're talking about?
Yes I remember him....
no, the british guy
who made up the korean guy
Julian Clary!!!
and totally attacked that poor australian woman who got a dog
flask! Throw salt over your shoulder, FAST!
lololol
You mean nancyboy?
that's is the one, ruru. As I recall, you were the one who tipped me off about him not being real
Am sure he had an accomplice too....
I am not sure JC was involved in that one
oh and there was also 'fauxmage' or whatever her name was
They were friends of Neil as I remember and not JC
i thought he was?
there was also another babbler, a man, who's name I cannot recall, and don't want to, that friended a bunch of us on facebook, when we were all new to facebook and would friend anyone, who turned out to be .....unwell. total stalker material. that wasn't funny though, that was SCARY
A group of gay guys getting their jollies by pulling the chain on some players here
I've gotten my nose a little out of joint from time to time over the years with something snotty being said but I have to advantage of a horrible memory and I can never remember later who annoyed me.
that is a blessing to be sure, kitty chan....i guess?
It's not always a curse anyway
To be honest with all, I dunno where folk get the energy or the wherewithall to be so nasty.....and how do they remember all their lies???
do you remember the name of the nice australian woman who JC ran off? she owned a dumpster company, and was so lovely
I don't remember how nancyboy got unmasked - ruru? flask?
Sorry I can't remember....
no...but am almost positive he wasn't alone...
I researched death notices in England. You mean that guy Frank trif?
yes!!!....that was his accomplice!!
Why Trif, who dies??
I honestly can't remember.
died?
nancyboy apparently did.
and we were all so upset - and then it turned out he wasn't real to start with
hey all
Thats right.....its all coming back to me...
Hi mool
Hi mool....
goodness! some sort of something is happening outside! horns blaring, sirens....whooping.....can't for the life of me see what it is all aobut
happy Woden's day all
Was it not the FRANK that was supposed to have died?
and the same to you mool
okay, no panic - apparently it is a parade for the fifth graders who just finished elementary school.
Aww lovely!
truly. those poor kids. I hope they can go back to real school in the fall, and not spend more months flat on their butts in front of tv
We also tracked down through reverse photography that Nancyboy's photos were actually a Famous Japanese Actor and not a poor Gay Korean boy
And Frank wasn't the worst stalker here TRif
I dont know that it was frank. I seriously don't remember the guys name. Unfriended him after a week, and he seemed to disappear off fb
and there are a couple of players who kind of regularly make up stories fairly often too.. .but those are mostly harmless
it was Frank.. I'm sure of it Trif
there is a very, very real reason why I have that line in my profile about how you really can't trust anyone in cyberland.
supposedly Nancyboy's boyfriend and future husband
Nothing more true Trif...
no, defintely not him.this was a all-too-lonely straight man targeting women through babble and fb
i have met in person several babble players and a few have become really great personal friends
I think we are talking about two separate people- the two things were not concurrent
in that case I don't know who you mean trif
definitely agree on that score, ruru - for the most part babblers are great.
dots
dots what paco?
7 left and just completely grid locked. can't see a word to save me
one left for me
go mooling go! get 'er done!
yeah, this last one has be a bit stumped tho
topical phantom today: not sure I should enter it here though.....
You know, I have just looked down the list of who's online....and made ab observation....there are more people on Babble that DO NOT chat rather than do....
most players choose not to chat flask..they just do the game
I didn't chat for years
go on Trif....you know you want to...lol
yeah, I dont know if you can trust that - if you leave the window on a tab, which many do, you are always "on"
shhhh flask - wypepo
lol...
Oh I think I chatted right away!!
i didn't for a long time too
now you can't shut me up
I think when I joined, I just thought it was what was kind of expected....
oh for the love of GAWD - I can hear the DH talking to his mother on the phone....to hear him talk, I've been a constant care burden to him....not one word of a lie, I had to video chat him through "making a salad" -- Im the farthest thing from high maintenance there is.
mool...have you found your last word?
not yet
found it
Thought I'd tried it several times, but apparently not
you want a clue?
that's fw for me
huzzah for mooling!
well done to mool.....
fw, hagd all!
huzzah for amelu!
that's why it's important to keep typing the words, sometimes you didn't put it in
that was a lot easier than yesterday for sure
Anyone need clues before I head off?
what does the six start with, please
I gave up yesterday with 23 to find
I muscled through the grid, got help on about 10 words I think
managed to guess a couple that were a bit ridiculous
st Trif
didn't like yesterdays at all...
Certainly chewed through a lot of time on it
do you ever find words you thought you had put in have disappeared?
not for me, no
I get that often, Flask.
Oh, I do it often....lol
st.....hmmmm.....
Hi zooz.....thought I was going mad!!
my biggest sin is forgetting to enter plurals
want a clue Trif?
not just yet, flask, but thank you
and hello zooz!
Hello, Trif â¤
does movieman still babble? haven't seen him in an age....i guess he's watching movies?
I am sure I see that person ask for a clue about a month a go.
hi all 8 left
Hello, Peri.
stuc
stuck even
Peri, life is good. I'm getting a pedicure on Saturday.
yay for you Molly. not sure the places near me are open but I just might treat myself too

Finally found my last two words! Which are supposed to mean a pound of yarn.
Happy babbling everyone!
Yay for Peri. Time to go clean something? : D
better than a pound of flesh I guess

the party is a term sometimes used for a group who spy on others.
on tv. rooting for your team
i havent heard that called a watch party. i have only heard the term for spies who are watching others.

Well done JMC. I will always remember that funny incident when you posted your word list in chat. I probably won't mention it again though. Yee Gods.
