hi 9
I guess you might use it if you were in the business of mining gold.
no, but we see a lot of "words" that we've never seen anywhere
di7
yeah, gillie. I was just wondering if anyone had. And yes, Nan, that's certainly true. It's just so odd to see a word as a completely different part of speech than I'd known it
thanks, dizgrannie.

Hi Trif, pretty awful out
hello. yup. snowing sideways.
and that we have global warming contributing to all these extreme weather patterns
no newspaper, no mail
I am hoping our electricity holds out. It REALLY sucks when that goes
we are having one of the mildest winters on record --- makes me worry about what kind of fire season we can expect this summer
indeed, cybernan. i fear droughts more than almost anything
winds are really picking up here
hope the ents stay quiet
We're having the coldest and snowiest winter in a long time
the ents?
woody creatures from Tolkien - trying to avoid PB

ce 6/21 following the penny please?
nm - found it
di 6-7 please?
or the et 7?
nan, the et7 builds off the et4 right before it. I'd never seen the word, but it's a chemical that helps with the process.
the di duo is orders from a ruler like a strongman (and the word sounds like but isn't spelled like that type of leader)
STUCK ON CE 6/37
thanks for the di6/7! weird words
STUCK ON CE 7.36 AND IK AM SO GODDAM TIREFOF THIS FRIGGFIN GAME AND THE ABSURD WORDS

Still amazed that Pen has resorted to *** clues
i was responsive to the person asking for a clue.... ;o)
heck, I saved her life!...
back to my crossword puzzle....bbl to finish this...
Babble playing really can't become a matter of life and death.
*Sigh* We just cleaned the car off AGAIN and it's freaking snowing AGAIN. I hate winter.
Molly are you from NJ?
evening all!
Hi dan
just found my third currency word :-)
57 to go won't finish
i know what you need, molly. you need to live in a condo complex, with a garage for your car. that way your car stays clean and someone else plows/shovels the access to it.
or just pay a local kid to help you out
top row grey!
seems to me there is no difference between one at8 and the other!
hi everyone -- could I have a clue for the et 7 please?

hi penquis. WINDY here
hello lynxxx
cold and windy here...waiting for the snow to fall....they upped our expectation here to 6 to 12 in.....
Te7 please?
hmm, looks like that is one of my 4 missing t words
Bummer
i have te 6s, no 7 as yet
te 7 is like te 6 that comes after it....form of the same word....
includes the sometimes vowel...
ah!
te & a ***** boy
that finishes off the lower T!
ooh and remembered what i forgot to put in and that is Ts Trammelled
Don't get it :-(
Aahhh nm!!!
just when I was going to clue Pelosi
do i have to find any sch- or sth-?
sorry for that sound I am sure you all just heard - a spider just crawled on me. I think my dog just learned some new words
howdy folks. not sure I'll finish this one.
no Hursh
hello hokie!
hi Carla
oh good
hi carla...
tried playing earlier today and really struggled on some of the tiles. also did not have coffee today. are these 2 things related?
still 124 left
it's the C that are Cantankerous
all my tough ones went round and round in the bottom right corner
have 19/43 c's
finished with the Cs but have 21 left....
could not get near half on 8 different tiles
90% done!
100% done - thanks to Lickety, tough grid with unusual words. Bye all
ooooh nice cy7
well done!
and you can even past tense it
and drop a letter from it...
yes i just discovered that too!
well that's a stupid past tense, but thank you and pen
oh, say, what are the 9s?
hi 9/72
ce 9/72
am i going to require clues?
pretty sure I am
oh, not for hi9 i'm not! woot!
they are both ordinary words...
oh, I see the H
woooooot got ce too
thanks pen
yw....down to 4 here...
me too, was just about to type,"if there was an i nearby it would be ce9", but decided I'd better type it in first to make sure.
haha
DI 6 33 and di 7 48 pretty please
50 to go here...
ooh i was so proud when i found those
think of Putin, Stalin, and the like, but use the higher point tile
just monkeyed the di 6/7...first one....weird!!
hurshy, tyvm, what a weird word
What??
it is a harsh settlement imposed on a defeated group
such as perhaps some felt the Treaty of Versailles was
Wow.... googled it
ok, can't find my last word.....can anyone clue the ed 8?
didn't even know there was an ED word
ed 8/45....
E + de7
you clever une, you!
this grid is way hard!!!!
Es Eliminated!
Yes it is!!!
still can't find the hi9. Is it a compound, please?
ty, une....i was all around that one...i am done...
Not compound
no, trif, it is an obstacle
ugh, thanks une
Something that holds you back
shoot - was using wrong h.
all set
heading out....goodnight all....
What is the other 9?
Gnite!
ce 9
ce 9
ce9
also an ordinary word....bye
we chorused
lol
I hate C's!!!!
what are the odds you'll find it though? 100%
(cause it's a ce9)
can anybody clue the first da6/27? I know it comes from the corner D...
my little angel roo (pictured here) is da6/27
she has da6 paws and a da6 tongue and a da6 way of walking
Like lace....delicate
ty both
Clue for ce9??
gave you one at 6:56 une
ce 9 absolutely sure
hubs just made an interesting suggestion....night all!
that's firewords - thanks Une, hurshy, marksdolly and all cluers
*raises eyebrows*
Tx!!
Congrats!
woka woka
i am sad you did not notice my clues when i gave them une :(
Didn't have the base word
such is life
Hee hee
woot, finally grayed a 2nd tile (top A and top i)
top H is pretty easy
you just have to past tense in a way that you wouldn't normally expect
was working on it and just looked and it is gray, so I have to see what I tried.
haha
yep, like you said.
now just 2 d's and I'll finish the top row
there are 5 di that come from there
ok, 2 di's it is
3 of them go together
(another past tense you wouldn't expect)
already tried dinty more beef stew
moore
well that would make four that go together if it counted
ugh i do NOT see how i can make any more ch or cy words
well, i only have 10 left, might as well just list now
I think I'll shoot for 100 left
tada!
well done
any clues for the EN7 and 8? less than an hour and 60 words to go! Argh
joy, en7 and its plural en8. someone who goes into a contest
Thanks granny!
