Todays Wordle is in the grid. No hints or clues or spoilers!

1:11 am

hey soodle

1:12 am

With 6 Ts in the grid, I wonder... what's the most of any one letter in a grid anyone can remember? 6 seems like a lot, but I wonder if there have been more Es at some point....

1:12 am

hey ya freep

1:13 am

howdy

1:13 am

did you check out my new avatar?

1:13 am

I assume the same letter could appear 25 times?

1:14 am

JANE !! wash your mouth out...loll

1:15 am

dang, icon/avatar hasn't translated well.

1:15 am

It's an awfully big icon, but it's pretty!

1:16 am

sorry jane.

1:16 am

found a water mammal

1:16 am

the pic you see here is not the pic in my account. no0t sure what happened.

1:17 am

the pic here is of my birthday cake with the candles 70

1:18 am

I saw it in your account. don't know what happened either. Are you 70? I just turned 70 last week.

1:18 am

70 is the new 30....

1:18 am

I shudder at 25 of the same letter.

1:18 am

so did i. last Friday

1:19 am

well, it's just a theoretical possibility.....

1:19 am

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARPJANE !! xx

1:19 am

what city are you in granny? and happy birthday to you as well!

1:20 am

melbourne. well away from all that rain.

1:22 am

ah, we're going to Perth and Exmouth next year. Doubt if we'll make it to Melbourne.

1:25 am

are you catching up with dizgrannie?

1:36 am

Any babbler in the Perth Area, would be fun to see! We might have a stopover in Sydney also.

1:37 am

you'll have to try and workout how to get in touch with diz. and Sydney, there's lickety, MrP, and Andree

2:01 am

Sorry Rose. At this hour of the morning i tend to multi task!

Today, the word I started with in Wordle is in the grid, as is the second word I tried, which turned out to be the word. Two word games working in synergy!

5:43 am

Wow, matty.

5:56 am

matty, now I feel like I cheated, but got it in 2 thanks to your statement! ;)

5:58 am

It took me 4 plays

good morning - diving in

6:02 am

hi IG

6:03 am

Good morning! I'm a little over halfway. Feeling dizzy from this...words are coming from too many different directions!

might be a record grid for Ts

6:06 am

Ts are everywhere.

6:07 am

R's too. I think I'm typing on one and it pops up on another square.

TS finished - need coffee

6:21 am

And I must get ready for work. Good job, IG.

bye, Scrabbler - have a good day

6:59 am

Morning, all! Back in a bit for last 30! :-)

7:04 am

hi Une, well done. you're almost finished!

7:21 am

are there any pt words?

7:22 am

no

7:22 am

phew

7:22 am

ooh got the 9 and 10!!!!

7:23 am

i suppose i should also have asked about ps, but i don't THINK there are those

7:28 am

gosh, that's a lot of S words

7:29 am

Just 40

7:29 am

50

7:29 am

yeah, i know, we've had more, lol

7:29 am

i'm just at that stage where i'm so proud of all the ones i've found and can't believe there are still more

7:30 am

only 3 more now, that's not bad

7:44 am

Done, time for some T.

7:54 am

Oh happy day, there's only one K 😊

7:56 am

hello all

7:57 am

*All waves back

8:02 am

morning Molly, hi lindy

8:08 am

not found in the dictionary but it's found on the cheat list

8:09 am

What is the cheat list?

8:09 am

the list of words found on the clue page

top row gray. bam!

8:11 am

Somebody needs to tell Lickety his list is now the "cheat list" 😊

8:12 am

I just don't inderstand that entire statement.

8:15 am

My take is that it's on Lickety's list, but there is no definition when you click on the ? next to the word.

8:16 am

On the clue page there are links to 4 letter, 5 letter etc word lists. There are words there that don't work in the grid. That's all I'm saying and it seems odd.

8:17 am

you mean like the A to Z lists?

8:17 am

you mean like the A to Z lists?

8:18 am

yeah

8:19 am

Think of those lists as dictionaries of just words of that length. Not lists of words in the game.

8:20 am

I figure A to Z lists are likely newer (or more frequently updated) than Enable, which is what this game uses, and not even the newest version of Enable at that.

8:22 am

Thanks for the explaination

well, was moving right along at graying tiles on 1st pass which never happens for me, but then I got to the first R.

8:51 am

It is a pleasant gird today.

well, now I'm at the P which is not so pleasant. really only one way to go unless there are PT and PS.

8:54 am

nope all pa's

interesting, thanks. have only found 8.

so maybe some big ones there

8:56 am

there are a couple big ones

found 2 more p's. will have to come back later for the big ones.

9:00 am

i have a great clue when you're ready

what is the stat(s)?

9:02 am

pa9/60 and pa 10 / 77

9:03 am

I can't wait to hear this...

got 'em, thanks!

now 1 P left

I'm ready for a great clue Ruru

9:04 am

morning, all

welki!

9:05 am

when a church goes through priests you then can figure out the pa/9

9:05 am

hi welki..

wow, barely got half of the top S

this is not a pleasant grid, bea

9:08 am

and here I thought it would involve what the minister had for dinner....

well, the pa9 this... yours is easier, rbud 😜

9:10 am

i try to minister the best clues possible

that's punny. I can't even come up with one.

9:22 am

you'd have to get to altared states to start punning this early

9:24 am

ruru is enshrined as the best punster in my bible!

9:25 am

it's all about knowing your rites

so close to having veranda and tornado

9:27 am

don't be templed into the wrong path

9:28 am

you are pew much shirl

well, 50 left, HOET. a lot of big ones left.going to take a break now. TTFN

9:32 am

don't listen to hymn, i'm just trying to be punitent

9:33 am

Ru, your clue has been officially dissed.

9:33 am

hah.. we'll take that as the gospel shirl

9:33 am

Personally, I thought it was clever.

9:34 am

you can't please them all molly.. i learned that a long time ago

9:37 am

Yes, that's true. And clever clues are no longer the favorites. People like them really easy these days.

9:38 am

not always.. but sometime yeah

9:39 am

i got the 9/10 from your clue, ruru, as it started the punfest, i thought it was great :)

9:40 am

:D you're pretty great at punning yourself shirl.. especially this early

9:41 am

always happy to word play with you, ruru

9:41 am

always happy to word play with you, ruru

9:41 am

always happy to word play with you, ruru

9:42 am

hmmm, double-dipped that last comment

9:42 am

wow, what a computer lag

9:49 am

if i can have a t4 lemon, why can't i have the t7 lemon?

9:52 am

because it only applies to Madonna

9:58 am

I was mad about that one too, shirlock

10:00 am

Bah-dum-ching Ru.

10:00 am

:D

10:01 am

But be careful or her boyfriend is going to smack you and tell you to keep his girlfriend's name out of your f*cking mouth.

you have to use the same t to get to it. I think it does take it, just not today

10:21 am

yes, it says it does not exist in today's

10:22 am

well Molly, you'll be glad to know that OJ Simpson thinks that Will Smith "went a little too far".

10:22 am

OJ really didn't need to weigh in on that.

10:23 am

lol

10:24 am

my first thought when it happened was what would a double murder (unconvicted, I know) think

10:24 am

madonna's boyfriend is 27 years old. I'm not afraid of him

10:25 am

I would say so is Jada's but I'm afraid I'd get slapped.

10:25 am

I heard it was one of Jaden's friends, is he that old now?

10:27 am

I'm amazed OJ had time to put out a statement since he's consistently hard at work finding Nicole's killer

10:27 am

Jaden is 23 and he still has whacked out hair

10:28 am

And please. Having a sexual relationship with one of your kid's friends is just ICK.

10:28 am

madonna is just icky

10:29 am

Jada is the one who had a sexual relationship with her kid's friend.

10:29 am

Maybe it's something about names that end in A.

10:30 am

yeah, my 21 year old told me about Jaden's friend and I was thinking, that is just super icky.

10:30 am

oh I didn't know that that is really creepy

10:31 am

that mother must be pulling her hair out

10:31 am

I just typed in an 8 because all the letters are here but I couldn't see it, and it took!

10:31 am

oh geez, ruru bout to get bitch-slapped

10:32 am

oh.. that happens all the time around here to me :D

10:33 am

Not as much since your friend o-o exited stage left.

10:34 am

All that spiritual guidance got me the 9/10 too. Thanks, punners!

10:34 am

ah true.. I miss that old asshole.. NOT

10:35 am

Strange, August Alsina (Jada's boy toy) never got slapped.

10:44 am

open marriages are weird.. sorry

10:45 am

sorry not sorry

10:46 am

Oh who knows with those two. They claim they never said they have an open marriage.

10:47 am

that's odd.. it's sure out there in the press

10:48 am

I'm kind of amazed the academy or security didn't escort him out of the theater

10:48 am

They should have.

10:49 am

I am kind of amazed with the huge push for "inclusion" at the awards, someone who was "included" would act like that on a night they were nominated.

10:50 am

Interesting fact: While the slap was happening, Congress stopping funding of free meals for students to the tune of 11 Billion $$$$$

10:50 am

well.. the oscars are somewhat racist to begin with.. but yes I agree he really must have issues

10:51 am

But Ru, he's a "vessel of love".

10:51 am

ha

10:52 am

not sure Chris Rock would agree with that

10:53 am

I don't know how people in the audience weren't laughing when he did that vessel of love thing in his acceptance speech.

10:53 am

chris rock should have walked up and slapped him after he said that

10:54 am

Tickets to Chris Rocks upcoming tour are selling like hotcakes.

10:55 am

godthaab, my mom was telling me how kids in her area (the appalachians) were not getting school lunches this summer, so I'm guessing it's related to that. what a shame.

10:56 am

They have to make up for all that money they gave away during COVID, so hey, let's starve the kids. Brilliant.

10:57 am

it's sad that sometimes that's the only food a kid gets in a day

10:58 am

that's true hokes

10:59 am

it's obscene that we can't just feed kids who need to be fed

10:59 am

it's so much cheaper to feed hungry kids than it is to deal with the societal consequences of hungry kids

11:00 am

Hopefully, communities that are affected by this will respond with some kind of self-funded programs.

11:02 am

self funded how?

11:02 am

this is the funding

11:02 am

Ask for donations to supply kids with lunch money. Community funded instead of government funded.

11:03 am

The communities that are most affected are not ones that can afford to ask for donations from... members of the community

11:03 am

charity doesn't work, government programs do

11:05 am

So then people from outside the area. There is plenty of individual money out there. Otherwise people wouldn't be able to afford the mortgages on their $300,000 homes, the $50 bucks a month they spend at Starbucks and the hundreds they put in their gas tanks every month.

11:05 am

it would just make fiscal sense too: it's not like the government doesn't then shoulder the costs of underfed kids, whether directly or indirectly. Worse educational outcomes, worse health outcomes, worse job prospects, increased crime rates, depreciated assets, and so on and so on. But it's much easier to pretend you're saving money than acknowledging that by not spending a little now you're spending a LOT more later

11:05 am

sure, but that's why we have TAXES. Take from those that have and give to those that have not

11:06 am

through the government, not charity.

11:06 am

No we actually have taxes for a lot of other reasons.

11:06 am

<-- would love to have $300,000 homes here in California

11:07 am

taxes shouldn't fund social programs?

11:07 am

since when?

11:07 am

I didn't say that. I said that is not the main purpose of taxes.

11:08 am

yeah, like in the appalachians, there might be one or two rich people but mostly communities can't help, that's why they need help

11:08 am

but how does that negate the fact that we should use taxes to fund social programs? just because we use them for other things too

11:09 am

It doesn't and I never said it should.

11:10 am

okay, so why disagree with using taxes to fund social programs?

11:10 am

unless you think I meant that that's the ONLY reason we have taxes?

11:11 am

For those who are interested, All For Lunch is a national organization that helps kids who need it get school lunches. You can donate on line.

11:14 am

Feeding America is another place you can donate.

11:22 am

time to get to work.. have a great day everyone

11:28 am

super excited - had a video chat with a lady at a local pet rescue, we're doing a meet & greet of a pup with our current dog on Friday!

11:34 am

good morning everyone

11:34 am

hi nan

11:37 am

If you want to help hungry kids in Appalachia, Americans Helping Americans has a program you can donate to.

11:38 am

i just donated blood! woot

11:40 am

Mael, it is a crime that a rich country like the U.S. has a population that relies on schools to feed kids.

11:40 am

just been through the chat -- don't really understand what everyone is so upset about: Man insults another's wife, husband slaps man. Done and justified.

11:42 am

yeah, I kinda felt the same, nan, but boy, did the masses (many without the "m") give me heck on FB about it.

11:45 am

"bad role model", "she can stick up for herself", "violence is never the answer", and the ever-present bits about it being sexist and/or politically incorrect.

11:45 am

So you two are condoning physical violence? Just curious.

11:45 am

there's another one! imagine that.

11:46 am

Okay, question answered.

11:47 am

the host was not funny molly - he was way out of line and got what he deserved. And as far as punches went, it was obviously held back and meant to make a point rather than cause serious injury

11:48 am

Wow

11:48 am

are you saying people should be allowed to go around insulting others and saying whatever they want without consequences?

11:49 am

I figure, sure, it's bad to get violent, but there are times when it's just not the worst thing in the world. And be real, there are plenty of women who appreciate when their man sticks up for them, even knowing it's not the "correct" thing to do. I'll be interested to see if she has anything to say about it, because really, her opinion matters the most.

11:50 am

and it was a slap, not a punch. I figure alcohol was involved, and it sure could have been worse. Not "condoning", just understanding.

11:50 am

No Nan. But I will never say that if someone gets insulted it is okay for them, or someone who cares about them to slap the insulter in the face. That is not how I raised my kids anyway.

11:51 am

No not condoning but it sure sounds like "making excuses for".

11:51 am

phantom: veteran

11:52 am

There were plenty of other ways Smith could have defended his wife. We live in a world of people sounding off on social media and in the press.

11:53 am

Call it what you want, you like confrontation, and verbal slapping (which Rock did) can be just as bad, sometimes worse.

11:53 am

there is a difference between insulting someone and ridiculing someone in public, which is what he did. I still say he deserved what he got -- and if that is what is style of comedy is, I am surprised it hasn't happened sooer.

11:53 am

agreed, rbud -- certainly more hurtful than a slap

11:53 am

I don't think the police would look at it that way if Chris Rock decided to press charges...

11:54 am

charges for what? a slap? lets get real -- the police can shoot someone on a whim and think they should get off

11:55 am

I bet most of the people fussing about the "violence" of it all don't mind football a bit, but hey, what do I know?

11:55 am

that qualifies as an assault nan.. not sure how that plays out in Canada, but here it is a crime

11:56 am

so if you defend yourself in the US it is a crime?

11:56 am

I also have several FB folks who still believe it was all a put-on to raise Oscar ratings, and I consider that a definite possibility, too, I have to admit. They ARE actors, after all.

11:57 am

i really doubt that RB.. not too likely

11:57 am

Smith did not defend his wife- He laughed at Rock's joke, then saw his wife was upset and tried to save face.

11:58 am

Let's just see, like I said, if his wife says anything, and whether they take his award away. That will tell a lot.

11:58 am

he wasn't defending himself nan and it wasn't an appropriate joke, but it was just a joke. We can't start all climb up on stages and start assaulting comedians

11:59 am

I don't know much about the legalities of it all, but do think verbal assault should be dealt with in the same manner as physical assault.

11:59 am

It wasn't just a joke to her, Ru -- that is the whole point.

12:00 pm

Anyway -- what was a molehill is now a mountain. I wilsh people would get as upset about what Putin is doing to Ukraine.

12:00 pm

I don't know if Chris Rock knew she had a medical issue with her head.. but part of the price of celebrity is that people can take you to task

12:00 pm

No way - verbal assault is subjective which leads to elimination of free speech

12:01 pm

phantom: attorn

12:01 pm

Inappropiate behaviour under the guise of comedy is still inappropriate behavour. I am surprised Don Rickles got away with so much

12:01 pm

assault is assault, KT --- free speech does not inclue defamation of character or assault -- free speech is the freedom to express an opinion on something.

12:01 pm

I don't agree with that godthaab

12:01 pm

I think they ought to line up the Academy Award board and smack them all, haha, for what they've let its level sink to. No dignity, nothing special, just a joke-filled roast.

12:02 pm

agreed, godthaab

12:03 pm

defamation of character is covered under free speech in america if you are public figure

12:03 pm

nobody's character was defamed

12:03 pm

agreed meatball - it was not def of character it was a joke

12:03 pm

right on meatball

12:04 pm

It used to have elegance and the awards meant something - now it's a big comedy routine.

12:04 pm

if i could make a small suggestion? take ten seconds to consider whether you really want to be expending your emotional energy on this discussion, or not. just a friendly suggestion. :)

12:04 pm

I hope I never get to the point that when someone says something hurtful then laughs, I will call that a joke.

12:04 pm

I'm not emotional about it at all

12:05 pm

Amen to hurshy

12:07 pm

i'm finding this a pretty nice grid overall, how bout you guys?

12:08 pm

struggling with the re

12:08 pm

Have 89 left and will never finish

12:08 pm

ah yes, re words... always a bit annoying

12:08 pm

let me see, i have 13 of them

12:08 pm

very first re5,10

12:09 pm

showed an episode on TV again

12:09 pm

thanks hurshy

12:09 pm

oho just found a 14th re word

12:09 pm

I think it's ok to have discussions here about lots of topics.. no one was flying off the handle and while I don't agree with RB and Nan, i respect their thoughts on the subject

12:10 pm

it is definitely ok to have discussions about lots of topics

12:10 pm

to me, this one is insanely boring and pointless, that's all

12:10 pm

:D

12:11 pm

it's a lot more entertaining than clue after clue after clue

12:11 pm

hmm, if you say so...

12:12 pm

We've been to 2 movies in the las year. It was "Belfast" Thought it great with a super ast. Ignored at the Oscars

12:12 pm

what kind of movie was it? historical about the IRA and things, or...?

12:13 pm

For those condoning what Smith did, I can only suggest that if someone walked up to you and slapped you in the face for something you said that they perceived as offensive, you would be singing a different song.

12:13 pm

Life in Belfast with sectarian violence. Family decide to move to Britain.

12:14 pm

I tried to talk about meeting a new pup on Friday, but got no reply. Which is ok if no one wants to talk about pups!

12:14 pm

did they move to britain at the end or beginning?

12:14 pm

Please! aslindy

12:14 pm

oh lindy, were you meeting it to possibly adopt?

12:14 pm

yes, we are hoping to adopt her on Friday

12:14 pm

aslindy, i think it’s great!

12:15 pm

Hallo all!

12:15 pm

what kind of doggo is it?

12:15 pm

What kind of dog?

12:15 pm

she's a lab/bully mix

12:16 pm

beautiful brindle, not quite 6 mos, her name is Wilma

12:16 pm

you'll have to find her a boyfriend called Fred

12:16 pm

If were ever get anoth pup [not very likely] it would have to be a snaller dog

12:16 pm

there were 4 pups, Fred, Barney, Wilma and Betty

12:17 pm

ahh cute

12:17 pm

from a hoarding situation. they spent their first 14 weeks shut in a bedroom and never went outside. :(

12:18 pm

aw, well, at least they were rescued after not TOO long

12:19 pm

yes. she is still a little timid and not fully house trained, but we'll get through it. Pipper will help.

12:19 pm

Wilma sounds adorable!!

12:21 pm

hello all.....six Ts are way too many....

12:21 pm

they're Totally Tubular

12:21 pm

Truely...

12:22 pm

I was going to share her Petfinder pic, but they've already taken her off there!

12:22 pm

Don't worry Lindy. People can talk about dogs or cats here all day long.

12:25 pm

Lindy, so happy for you, my girl is a rescue, too, it has taken her a long time.... I've had her 2 of her 4 1/2 years.....to come out of her shell, but she's a happy girl now

12:28 pm

we've adopted a lot of dogs & cats over the years. plus when I was much younger I adopted a mustang through the government program, so I am used to training all kinds of animals.

12:30 pm

I would dearly love to have a cat again, but at my age it isn't fair to adopt a kitten and older cats that aren't disease ridden and used to being an indoor cat are hard to come by

12:33 pm

I follow several nearby pet rescues and see lots of cats and kittens available all the time. Don't give up looking if that's what you want!

12:33 pm

I just adopted another Labrador.. so I hope I outlive them

12:34 pm

time for me to do some shopping. remember to have fun!

12:34 pm

oh, ru, looooove labs Shadow was our last one, then mine after my husband passed. Such a good boy.

12:38 pm

I agree with Ru. I enjoy conversations about current events where people have different points of view. That is what life is about. We don't need to treat this place with kid gloves. Most of our conversations about hot topics remain civil.

12:45 pm

congratulations ru on your blessed event - are labs the long-haired ones, or short? get my blond dogs mixed up.

12:46 pm

oh cool, bigger board

12:47 pm

hi mool....

12:47 pm

hey pen, happy whatever day it is

12:47 pm

ditto...

12:48 pm

tx

12:51 pm

oh i see - retrievers have the long hair. both breeds seem like good-tempered, loyal guys. and labs are good seeing eye dogs, yes? this exhausts my knowledge of big blond dogs.

12:51 pm

Most labs are black or chocolate brown

12:52 pm

and they commonly are filled with bunsen burners and test tubes

12:52 pm

Haaaa! You've heard the joke about the lab tests and the cat scan (and the dead duck)

12:53 pm

yes, but go on

12:53 pm

oh, good to know Une. had no idea. anyway, handsome breed.

12:54 pm

Handsome and very very good family dog!

12:59 pm

driver duty calls - bbl

1:00 pm

bye nan...

1:06 pm

Molly, I don't mind disagreement either. It wasn't the fact of the disagreeing, it was the bothering about celebrities. But I wasn't saying people had to stop, either - just wanted people to check in with themselves and make sure they DID want to talk about that.

1:08 pm

i did admit that i found it a boring topic, especially since we were now on our second day of it, but people don't have to stop just cause it bores me personally.

yeah, I've never stopped rambling on when I'm sure it bores people. 😜 REHI

1:12 pm

hiya hoke

1:14 pm

I think that's my daughter's theory anyway :)

I actually always have to have music, podcast, tv, etc. playing and mr. homie attributes it to my latchkey kid upbringing.

1:15 pm

My daughter is like that...always has something going on in the background, even while talking

1:16 pm

1:28 pm

the OV 8 is not in the dictionary...

1:29 pm

1:31 pm

idk why not. you didn't put enough sugar in the lemonade, so it is ov8

1:34 pm

Seems I can't count.

mind didn't land me in the PB because it wasn't a word

1:34 pm

yes, probably more grammatically correct....

1:35 pm

re my clue for ov8. Should have been ov7

1:38 pm

I enjoy the chat here. No matter the subject or views. Thanks for the clues. I got 171 words with no other help, so I'm happy. Back later. Or maybe not. Have a great day, either way! :)

1:39 pm

1:41 pm

did you do the Bee today, carla?....

yeah, still 4 pts. from genius. was only 1 yesterday and couldn't get it.

1:42 pm

you can have a more t4....

1:42 pm

Oh oh, everyone hush up. News of The Bee!

1:43 pm

**Hopes copious Wordle chat is next

Does anyone play world? Do I really need another time suck?

1:45 pm

For the endless talk it gets it really isn't all that

1:45 pm

worders like to talk about word games....whatever the game....

I forgot the other one I used to play- with the 3 minute grids. WOrdsplay?

I like Wordle. That fact it's once a day makes it a quick yet thoughtful diversion, particularly when I'm working

1:46 pm

yes, WordSplay is still there....

And words with friends is useful as a time suck

Let me try a few wordplay. It's crck compared to this, which is a slow drug.

1:47 pm

exactly, wordle is fine as a quick diversion, but nowhere near as awesome as babble

1:47 pm

yes, that's true....

not that I know anything about that haha

bbl

1:48 pm

bye, Kap...

1:50 pm

wish NYT picked up babble - how great would that be for Jamie?

1:51 pm

only if they kept it free....

oh, just found a 3 word set! 41 left.

2:00 pm

nice.....59 here....i just found a three word set as well....;o)

2:10 pm

need a break....bbl to find the rest....bye, carla...bye everyone else...

bye pen

2:17 pm

still 44 left for me

34 now

2:17 pm

paverite - a style of stone or preformed brick that holds a particular appeal

15 upper S still

2:18 pm

14-9-12-7-0-1-1

1 P left. I wish it was paverite.

2:18 pm

4 on that S for me

2:19 pm

4 Ps left

9-3-8-12-2 really trouble with the 5s and 6s

found 2 s's

2:21 pm

astronate - space baby

interesting

2:21 pm

it's going to happen at some point one would think

I need one A there and 4 from the other

2:22 pm

3 A's on that one, 2 on the other

oh, found 2 A's, finished the 5, and realized my earlier statement should've read too many 6's and 7's

2:23 pm

2 on that one...2 on the other

2:23 pm

2 on that one...1 on the other

ooh, finished the 29 T

2:25 pm

30 to go

28

2:25 pm

11-4-8-5-0-1-1

2:25 pm

still have 3T on that one

think I will look for 4's

2:26 pm

yeah, haven't gotten to that point yet

oh, now have all T's

2:30 pm

Still one T on the bottom (just finished the other one)

that was my last one, a 6

that's my guess for yours

2:31 pm

could be

get rekt

top two rows gray! of course my last R was a 4 that I entered this morning.

2:36 pm

oops just found the 9/10...was going to joke define it

haha

2:37 pm

7-1-7-4

wondering if it was the ruru version or the rbud version

5-0-3-12-2

2:38 pm

what local church leaders do :)

similar to both

2:38 pm

yeah, I can speculate on the ru version

there's another 4 I already did

2:40 pm

still 4 S's on that top S

2:41 pm

10 tiles with 1 remaining, and 2 with 2 remaining

still 10 here on that S

2:41 pm

yeah, there's some uncommon words on that S

P S10 R A V3 R A2 N

2:44 pm

R P S4 E A2 V O R2 A S T N D

somewhat stuck now with 20 left

2:44 pm

definitely have more tiles than you :D

ooh, found the middle row R

what are my missing 2 8's?

guess I could go read the flip

2:47 pm

I'm guessing one at least is an S

2:47 pm

if you want a clue, let me know...will help with your S anyway

good statistical guess, and correct. sure, I'll take a clue.

2:48 pm

there is a 7/8 and a similar 7 that are all musical terms, so think italian

2:49 pm

my other guess is an a8 which is related to a 6

2:49 pm

found my final 5

have been trying stuff with that double T but nothing so far. will try some other things.

I have ar8

2:50 pm

think italian

2:50 pm

which should help at one end..

2:50 pm

you have su8 right?

the 5s must be easy or mostly pl because it's very unusual for me to finish them first

2:50 pm

oh nevermind, doesn't exist

2:51 pm

oh, more s8 help coming

2:51 pm

there's a 7/8 s that is "hot"

2:51 pm

and "spicy"

2:51 pm

actually don't need the quotes, they're literally hot and spicy

oh, phone call

2:52 pm

hopefully it's not hot and spicy

2:52 pm

found my last n

2:56 pm

found my last p

ooh, what was the last P

and still need 1 N

2:56 pm

a p7

2:57 pm

At7 please.....not having to do with fashion

2:57 pm

got it after finding an a6...which might be a clue

2:57 pm

I don't want to be short about it une, but...maybe that's a clue

2:58 pm

it literally means to wear down, normally seen with a -tion ending

I don't have that yet. must be my last 2 a's on that side

hmm, thinking erosion. but can't think straight because my friend is still talking.

3:00 pm

want me to be more obvious?

now I got it.

3:00 pm

Yes please

3:00 pm

it's related to a war of...

3:01 pm

Tried attrition....

different form, une

3:01 pm

yeah, might want to read my previous clue with that in mind

3:01 pm

Sorry..... it's been a freaky day

3:02 pm

no worries here

3:02 pm

this board is a war of...

so there is a related at6?

3:02 pm

no

3:02 pm

Got it! New word.....

3:03 pm

Thanks!!

3:03 pm

Well I have one more a, so guess it's not impossible

oh, I thought you said something about it being something you found after another word

3:04 pm

oh, well Une mentioned it wasn't the fashion related one

3:04 pm

which comes before it

3:04 pm

still have five 4s...probably should look at those now

3:04 pm

well, there's one

3:05 pm

there's another...my last d and last a on the right

still 18 here

3:07 pm

11 here now 3-0-5-3

3:08 pm

still 4 off that S

now I need to go reread that about the hot and spicy s's

3:08 pm

hope it's enjoyable

got the peppers. I always miss those.

3:09 pm

woot

3-0-3-9-1

3:10 pm

those 7s huh?

P S8 A V3 R A N

3:10 pm

R S4 A V O R S T

3:11 pm

ah, found the bottom s

3:12 pm

tornate - what tornados do

so are there 2 S8?

3:12 pm

yes

3:12 pm

the other is the musical term

3:12 pm

and you were on the right track before

ok, so the other is the music one

is it SO?

3:14 pm

no

oh, maybe that's my problem

3:14 pm

I imagine it would be difficult to find with that letter combo yes :)

SE or ST?

3:17 pm

ST

ok, got 2 7's

3:18 pm

then you should be able to find the 8

got a 3rd 7 🤣

3:20 pm

ah yes, forgot that one

got the 8!

3:21 pm

actually, turns out there are four 7s

3-0-3-6

3:21 pm

2-0-4-2

3:21 pm

woops, 2-0-4-1

yes, of course I didn't try the 7 version of the 8

3-0-3-5

P S3 A V3 R A N

3:22 pm

R S2 A V O T

3:23 pm

cross the o off

vound a v

is there some kind of secret number code going on?

3:24 pm

yes, you have to be ingested to understand it

yes, meatball. 3-0-2-5 means I have 3 4's, 0 5's, 2 6's, and 5 7's left

ingested??? EEEEEEEEEK

well, I don't know what that has to do with it

moolingwa said it

3:27 pm

I did indeed

3:28 pm

avertant could be a word in an alternate reality

I keep wanting pstt but I know it's psst

3:29 pm

you must be pstt off

yes

3:37 pm

6 left

still 10. working on the 3 4's and nothing.

3:38 pm

yeah, still have one 4 left

found my N

I swear I did that one earlier too

makes me wonder how many of my last 9 I think I have already

3:43 pm

I've had a few that I thought I had tried, but likely typoed or got distracted on

found the P! 8 left

3:47 pm

perfect!

3:47 pm

found my last t

3:47 pm

5 left

terrific!

3:47 pm

1-0-3-1

SSS A VV R A

3:48 pm

R SS A V

3-0-2-3

3:48 pm

same letters, different tiles (in some cases)

3:51 pm

found my last r

3:51 pm

1-0-2-1

3:52 pm

found my last v

3:52 pm

3 to go

still 8

found the R - a 4!

3:55 pm

nice

well, my right A was a 4 that I also already entered today

3:57 pm

annoying

agree

3:57 pm

absolutely

still one A on the left though. and the s's and v's

3:58 pm

yeah, I can posit the v's if you like

3:58 pm

how many do you have?

that'd be v.v. great

2 left

3:58 pm

do you still have a 4 left?

yes

3:59 pm

and the other might be either the 6 which is latin, and means trust, or a 7 that might leave you green with envy, knowing that I got it first

3:59 pm

my last 4 is a weird v4

I do not have any v7, will work with that clue

3:59 pm

or rather was

I have 9 v4

4:00 pm

remember, my cles are more cryptic than not

yes, I know

4:00 pm

yes, then I think it might be the one that is worth more than the others

what is the 7 stat?

4:01 pm

ve7/44

4:01 pm

commonish word

I have a veird va4/8

4:01 pm

then you're missing a different v4...perhaps the second to last one

I think I have that too

will retype every v4 possiblility

4:02 pm

then pehaps the second one, the one before the 7

ok, got the 7!

4:04 pm

I knew if I planted a clue, you'd figure it out

I have the pink floyd song before the 7

4:04 pm

yep

4:04 pm

then it's an easy one

4:05 pm

o/` does anyone here remember... o/` o/` do you remember how she said...we would meet again...some sunny day o/`

what has become of you

4:06 pm

yeah, who knows....I used to be quite normal

are you pretending you didn't notice I continued the lyrics?

4:07 pm

Oh, I knew you continued them

ah, it was the presidential word. not sure how I missed that all day.

4:09 pm

think these last three are too much work

4:10 pm

guessing a6 and s6 and s7...but could be a7

yep, I know you don't list but I'm about to so I can walk Winston before it's bedtime.

4:10 pm

sounds like a good strategy

I have 2 6 and 2 7 left. the left A and 3 upper S

4:11 pm

maybe missing an s7 plural?

4:11 pm

before you list

I haven't seen people asking for clues for any weird a's or s's so feels like they might be normal. but what are the odds of us both needing them if so?

will check my plurals.

nope

4:13 pm

you got all 4 related s7s?

4:14 pm

coz they're the only 7s off the middle row s

4:14 pm

h no, I missed this one

yep

4:14 pm

there's a 5/7 combo

4:14 pm

Back for last 20, all T and R from 4th column

hey sophie!

ah, got the s7, thx moo

4:15 pm

hey soph

ok, the A is neither a word I know nor a word with a definition, so good luck, moo

4:16 pm

it's a 6?

yes

well so far the list not helping with the last 2 S

4:21 pm

what's the second letter on the a?

4:21 pm

I'm down to 11 all T will be happy to clue an S

4:21 pm

I'll try very hard not to type the whole %$%$##@ word

av

thanks, sophie. surely I can figure them out with the points and the list position.

4:22 pm

oh duh, alternate spelling of the bird

usually has a c?

4:22 pm

for normal people, it's spelled with a c

I've seen that spelling here but didn't know it was a bird

4:24 pm

yeah, believe so

4:24 pm

I mean..it's the way you say it, if not how you spell it

4:24 pm

they're cool birds, their bills curve upwards at the end

interesting

finally got the S6

4:27 pm

sortant - sorta improtant

4:27 pm

1

one T left, sophie?

4:27 pm

what's the second letter on the s hoke?

nice portmanteau, moo

4:27 pm

4:28 pm

4:28 pm

4:29 pm

wd soph

4:30 pm

Have you walked Winston? I can't wait to get this boot off, and get back to walking. It's almost 80 degrees here, today. N'ville

only 72 here and nope. not sure how I can have first 4 letters of a 7 and not figure out the last 3 with the points

ok, looked it up. now I can walk winston.

4:32 pm

I think I've seen it here before. and no, I'm still here. mr. homie started a tv show that I'm having trouble leaving.

4:39 pm

I'm gardening as I am doing this so will be in and out -- just got the last of the dead leaves picked out of the flower beds and found some new growth on the strawberries, so getting some water to them now.

4:49 pm

Nan, that sounds much better than playing this game. I can't wait until I get this boot off!

4:50 pm

how much longer now? have you had an xsray to see how things are progressing?

4:52 pm

yes last week no surgery go back 4 more weeks back in April

4:53 pm

gosh that's been a long haul

4:55 pm

It could have been much worse of a break. I'm thankful for the no surgery words. Also, I have osteoporosis, so guess it's slower to heal.

4:55 pm

yes I imagine that would make a difference

5:02 pm
