I got all of them now, knowing the stats helped. Half are plurals
FW! anyone need hints?
congrats!
I have sk 5, 6, 5,6, 4, 5...
So what am I missing, please?
another set of 6 6
another 5/6 combo
OK, I have 20, 33, 18, 30....
Plus the 9, 20 (those are all scores...)

The monkeys to the rescue

phantom: spleen
much to my surprise, first pass and i'm down to 30 left, i might even finish today
Impressive!
howdy folks
Hey hokie!
hey une, any storms there? we are supposed to get some this morning I think
The storms yesterday bypassed us! Yay!
good
oh dear, this 2nd row middle col E is excruciating
there's 2 more
I'm down to ten but pretty stuck
96 left here but still going
I found an 8 so I've got that going for me
15 to go
total enlightenment, hokie :)
ðŸ˜
oh.. just found an 8 myself
seels
crap
I figured with 10 left you'd have them all
I'm betting we all have that one welks
I did
working on the P now, still first pass
ok, 35 left after first pass, HOET
forgot to add I grayed the bottom row, which with the K is unheard of
is HOET - half on each tile?
yes!
Nice! that's usually my goal on first pass but I'm terrible at e's and a's
yes, I usually struggle on the vowels too, esp. on first pass.
but that E I found so hard on the first pass today I just grayed out. I guess I just have to see the whole grid before I see the vowel words.
phantom spleen
well, now I'm stuck at 18. guess I'll check out some other things. TTFN.
Just learned there's apparently no noun form of "pesky"!
14 to go....
one more S and i'll have edges all grey
woot, i got it!
ke 5/20, second one, pls
Still slogging thru the s's
Need that one too, Bichon....
i have one....ke 5 ends in a vowel....
if you had a barbie, you likely had one of these, too (minus the last two letters)
i think it is a form of martial arts...
Tx pen!
yw...
hurshy, what was that last edge S?
nm
the other 8!
ty pen
but still need 5 D's(!) to gray the edges
oh then what 8 did you already have hokie?
my last edge one was sa5/12, i had the S8 from there
se8
yw, bichon....
ty
ty for those stats....didn't have that one...
somehow saw those on first pass
so, I'm assuming the D's are all DR or DO?
yes
gotta go bring my bro to his colonoscopy.....TMI??....bye all....
maybe it's time to quit this game -- not seeing an se 8 and logged on in time to see someone talking about a long list of sk's -- cant't see more than two
I was about to quit the game if they weren't
bye pen!
i have 4 sk, are there more? i need 4 more S
no 5
I do still have 8 S's to go from that S with the K. I guess that is the problem.
it does appear to be the hardest tile today
anyhoo, gotta go buy some printer ink, so I better skedaddle. will save 15 for later.
just found a 2nds sk 5-6 combo
stats before I go - 2-6-6-1 SS O L Dx5 Sx6

well, 7 left for later - 1-2-3-1 Dx5 and Sx2
ooh, found 2 D's on my way out.
All the Brits are wondering how sp8 can be Sp8 in the Grass 😊
hey all
moo! just back from a Winston walk. 5 left
49 left here, late start for me
you can still catch me
23 to go :)
see?
7-9-4-1-2
I have 2 lower left S and 3 D
1-1-2-1
8 off that S and no d's
so would you care to guess the 3 d's?
maybe a 6/7 set or maybe that's my S's
a 6/7 combo perhaps?
then maybe a 4?
ha!
I do not have any d6/7 sets
found the 4!
:)
would you care to share the 2nd letter of the D set?
sure, o
dolene, dolene, dolene, dolene. I'm begging of you please, don't take my man.
hah
his nickname likely would be rocky
well, I don't know what that means but I found it
similar to a type of sleeve in garment making
a big stone made by people
ok, that leaves S5 and 6. probably SK.
yeah, it's sk
missed that one :)
15 to go
4-6-2-1-2
TADA
11 to go
found one of my 8s
congrats :)
thanks, felt extremely easy after yesterday
I even found both 8s all on my own
vn
sx5, p, sx2 and kx2 remaining
have I mentioned I dislike K's
I also found all the K's on my first try!
but I do dislike them too
found my other 8
2-6-2
splendid!
k's komplete
kool
I sense you're making a pun
I have a lot of 5s left
yes you do and all S's?
oh, one P still
sx5 p s
I have a 2 candidates for the P
nothing weird on the s's, you just need to look harder
ah, a 5/6 combo
just found a weird s :)
unless you're familiar with south african slang for villains
hmm, not so sure about that. oh is that an SK?
yes
the SK's were all weird, but I was talking about the 5 missing ones from the upper S.
another weird sk
4 left
1-3
so you were actually missing 5 from the lower S?
yes, the lower s
completed that s
two fives left
okay, yeah, those were almost all weird
pretty much
there is one s5 that we have here from time to time but I wouldn't say it's a word I've ever used.
you prob have it and are missing an easy one
maybe
I have an sn5
not that one
oh, so that's the S you need?
the right s
that's why I was confused earlier with which S
found it
just the p to go
nm, the one I was talking about was sa5 from there
yea, that was the one i was missing
aha!
just a p5 to go
it might be this one that doesn't have a def.
could be, running out of ideas :)
it rhymes with a brand of interfacings used in sewing
just as well I know nothing about sewing, nevermind sewing interfaces
or actually doesn't just rhyme with, it sounds exactly the same
oh, found it
but it does rhyme with a different word, different starting letter
has no definition
i just found that this moment. still missing one p.
does it rhyme with a convicted criminal?
well done mab
is that o at the top an oe by chance?
no, I believe it was or4
nope
mab, do you have all the man parts to fit the weekly theme? (for the p)
no! thanks. how did i miss that?
moo, I knew the sewing clue would give nothing away 😜. the brand name has a double cons in the middle FYI.
and huzzah, moo
good to know :)
I figured you gave me that clue purposefully btw
don't want to ruin it for you 🤣
well that one went relatively quickly
yep
well, it dragged out as usual for me but I did a lot of other things this afternoon away from my computer
now if I could just rise above Great on Spelling Bee
never tried it
well, you can play for free but they cut you off once you find so many points
normally I can make it to genius, but today's letters are tough, still have to get to amazing and then genius
i get frustrated with their curated word list.
and then write them emails. once, they did add my word - neap.
yeah, like today they don't allow agee
do these people know anything about Enable? Huh?
I also get frustrated with their list. I have emailed them twice. once was a notoriously bad omission that took a lot of heat on the social media.
what was the word?
oh, so you can use the same tile more than once?
ah, I see
I read an article with the guy who edits the word lists. he wants them to be more regular words that everyone knows, so like no specialty occupation lingo, etc., yet some days I look at the ones I missed and it's stuff I've never ever heard of
yes, can reuse and that took me a long time to get used to after boggle playing for years
yes! inconsistent. although, knowing newspapers, that guy is probably about 17 years old.
mab, the word was undaunted, and he allowed daunted, which no one ever uses! but undaunted was not allowed.
well, I'm not sure when the article I read about him was written but he was 25, and the game is only like 3 years old or something.
so you are close!
that is very odd. undaunted by the flames, she ran back in the house to save her elderly collie.
looks interesting, though I maxed out my non-subscriber pretty quickly
and it appears it's a separate subscription from the one I get through work
yeah, hurshy only types in the pangram (which is using all 7 in a word)
so she doesn't max out before getting it
there is a games sub that includes bee, crossword, sudoku, etc.
yes, it's evil of them to make you pay for cooking and games separately.
I was paying a monthly amount because I just wanted to try it and then I chatted with a subs person and got a much better rate.
years ago, when everyone still got the paper version of the paper, everything was included.
oh, the other time I emailed was about "alee" and "vittle"
ah well, probably not worth $40 to me
I get annoyed because they send me emails with links to articles that I click on and then it says I need a sub.
I think I paid $27 for the year, which is like $2 something a month (in case you all didn't want to math)
on their podcasts they always plug for listeners to help support their excellent journalism (which it is) by subscribing - having some sense of how rich NYT is, the pleas are annoying.
lol, yes...that would annoy me too
but i've been hooked for so long. The Washington Post is another that I just have to have. Often better than nyt.
I try not to read news, but mr. homie got a wapo sub recently so at least I can now read links that I see places.
it's a great paper.
Well, I should probably do some stuff
tx for keeping me company to the end hoke
no prob. see you tomorrow.
yepper
have a splendid afternoon you two.
in the grass.
