hello everyone
ae7
howdy all on a late flip....
sc8
Clues are up
thanks, lickety
tr7
a popular hot sauce!
Well, it's not
tabasco
Tapatio
ce 7
ac7/8
ty freep - the sc8 is still eluding me, but at least I have one 8
yw
Oh, now I've got the sc8. Still not finding the tr7, though.
I can't find it either
it's half vowels
If you mean the tr7, I've got it now - it's architectural
I think freep is referring to the sc8, unless there's another tr7.
I meant the sc8
have the sc 8 - I am looking for the tr 7
my mistake on reading the chat
probably a sign to head to bed!
I should probably go too, although it would be nice to have another O from the second column.
not seeing anything architectural that I know of
Rhymes with a word for money requested for the return of something
Well, I'm off - good night
night, gillie
O
I'm off as well -- goodnight everyone
Same!
o from second column - pacific and plural
or og4
date
And there is a freebie
A free AG7 would be a little more helpful
It has this word in it: mathematicians often use _____ paper to lay out grids
weird one - Thx
May I have a nudge on the sc8 please?
a dramatic outline (Italian?)
Ah hah! Thank you!
this grid just looks like it should have more than 3 8s
More help with that sc8, please?
ends with most of old video game character (bros.)
and hi Scrab
Hi. Looking.
I found it. I was looking for an odd word and it is normal.
that word sounds normal, but looks odd to me
if that makes sense
I use that word often, meaning a situation or circumstances. "Worst/best sc8."
BRB with breakfast.
Gotta go. Enjoy the day.
Wow, that was a fast breakfast
hello all
morning all
hi kiani
yo
the more I play this, the more I realize my vocab is made up of made-up words
same
oof, i am not very awake this morning
idk why, i didn't go to bed late or anything
for the record: all words are made-up words. someone made them up at some point. :)
well, yeah :P
a lot of foreign words in my active vocab, and a lot of gaming-related words or parts of words
I keep trying mosh but it's never there :)
for instance: gatos. not accepted, but I feel I must oppose any game that does not allow cats of any language :D
while merde is :)
took way too long to find that top left E word
how is maxed not a word?
hmm
on the one hand, yay for gatos. on the other hand, i don't know the word for cats in most other languages, so if they were all accepted, we'd have a lot more words to find that we don't know, lol
I'm willing to learn
:D
top row grey!
oh yay, it's snowing!
nice :)
I mean, if it's going to be cold and dreary, it might as well snow!
clue for 6,21 please?
I mean, tr6,21
ugh, I cannot brain today
i'm hypnotized, i'm in a tr6
thank you hurshy
And that contains a word within a word
ah, yes it does
I'm curious - how many of you have Babble Expert?
not i, said the little red hen
I use it sometimes.
nor I
I don't use Expert
I don't use expert
Not I
what is babble expert?
it's a supplemental program you can download, created by a player, LicketySplit, that you can put your words into and it puts them into a list. so it gives you a bit more info because if there are like, three tr4/4 words in a row, it puts it into the right spot in alphabetical order, and then you know if you're missing the first one or the second one or the third one
that's what i do with listing
you can also use the printable list to just see what the words are, but in that case you do not know which of the three you are missing if there are a bunch the same in a row
as in lickety's list
yes
great explanation hurshy
so yes, guilty, i do list, not all the time but then i don't finish the grid all the time
You can add your words to Lickety's list to see what order they are in and what you need.
woohoo, i have found 90% of the words
Expert is a little different in that it combines the list with the grid so your word goes in your word list and Lickety's list at the same time.
Expert doesn't work on a Mac, though, sadly
gosh matty that is exactly what i wrote, you beat me to it
Reason why I don't have a Mac
huh. i’ve never started with an 8 before. good morning/evening.
howdy do
Sad news. David Crosby died.
181 to go here. will probably not start with an 8.
yes, saw that yesterday. but, alas.
it's ck
it is kind of amazing he hadn't passed long before this
indeed, all good
point rur
Oh gee, sorry for the old news.
Yes, he had had a host of health issues going way back.
from cocaine use and addiction
And liver transplant due to hepatitis C.
iMolly it is still new news to mmost of us
oh, goodness.
maxed is not in the dictionary yet?
apparently not.
sorry for typos; not used to tiny typing.
just found a weird m4 if you're looking for an m, mael
that must be my missing M! I'll look for 4s
thanks hokie
oh, thanks, that is strange
it was kind of a typo ðŸ˜
funny de5/22 is in the grid given Crosby has passed
you're saying he should have done that a time or two?
yeah for much of his life
of course I just tried mosh
oh ru you nailed it
same here carla
he did have a great voice though.. I saw them in concert many times
I try mosh every time, speaking of concerts
me too
same here
Looks like Mael, Pen and Harry are going to get hammered by winter weather.
meanwhile, I'm angry that next week is never getting over 45F
where i am, we’re on course for latest accumalating snow.
it's snowing here, finally
better than the gross mix we had over night, it was like shoveling wet sponges
friends in Boston reproted ice pellets last night.
yep
I had to drive through it too, we had a town meeting
phantom oxcart
wee! i’m glad it went well for you.
ocariate
oxcart is a good one!
lol go for it saan
sorry about that! I wasmaking wirds up
yeah.. I kinda figured that out
LOL, I was like, I don't think ocariate is there but I'll try it. now I see it is actually there.
hah, I hadn't even looked up
i wonder what ocariate would mean?
yep, there's an E up top too!
yep
only have 1 O but guess I will move on
that helped me find a couple Cs
Are you visiting somewhere Seain? Because there is no snow forecast for the DC area.
exactly why we’re on track for latest accumiating snow, possibly on track to have later snow than in 1973, which happened then on 23 Feb.
it's been a ridiculous winter for the east coast. We're so far below average here in Boston... it's starting to look like 2015, if anyone remembers our snowpocalypse
just tried oscar again too
ocariate: to play an ocarina with wild and gay abandon
nice, godthaab
also, to play a specific Zelda game excessively
:)
I almost said earlier ocarita - to play zelda with margaritas
phantom: nacho
yep
very interesting and fun definitions!
hmm, just found a c4 like that weird m4
hah! thanks, I had that c4 so I finally figured out the m4!
ooh, found an 8
good!
ty carla
meanwhile I still need 3 m's ðŸ˜
stats for the 8?
sc8
i only have sc8.45

I’m listening to the Bloomberg P&L podcast.

that one was a phantom for me when starting with an M
thanks, got that

tyvm ru;finally got it
detog - take your clothes off
that's the end of a very successful roman banquet
phantom mocha

et tu brutus?
brutus was the first to strip, come on
I just found the other 8 ra 8
phantom atria
Ghost plants in a large entryway
oh, got it, thx ru
they don't have to be plants, just ghosts hanging out in one
The word atria conjures plants for me
probably why many atriums are empty
valid
Even though it's a heart word
ok, I saved both a's for last and looks like they are both asses
no butts about that comment
found the 7/8 at least
She was a little behind with that

I knew there would be wailing
Those two are stacked weird
I actually got that the other day and was so proud of myself. just like when I got teapot yesterday.
I was so happy when i got teapot :)
we were so busy looking for ocarina that wasn't there, we missed the oc5 for the waves
lol
still no HOET though
whatcha missing?
HOET!
I'm waiting for a telehealth appointment... sigh
well at least you don't have to go in
true
it's always such an odd wait... they're late but there's no one I can talk to to confirm they will eventually be there...
yeah, I've had that before. like, hello??
and they tell you to log in early too, so I've been here almost a half hour
sigh
may the odds be ever in your favor
phantom: agora
a healthline ought to do better than that: you should at least know how long a wait. some places will do call-backs in the right order too, so you are not getting earbruises
a healthline ought to do better than that: you should at least know how long a wait. some places will do call-backs in the right order too, so you are not getting earbruises
I wish
we get to log in to the video chat app and wait
having a klutzy day, sorry again

No, but take two letters out of that for one of the sc5
ok, not that then, mael
pen!
hey pen! I have the 8
carla!
they're all 4 or 5 except the 2 I know you have, mael. maybe sw4.
there are three sc 5/12s if that helps....
the Ss are one of the few tiles i have grayed...;o)
she said she had all 3, those were my guesses
My clue was take two letters out of sowcart
finially finished the As over here
they are all pretty ordinary, i think....two not as common fours....
turns out my missing Ss were S4s...
Sometimes, it's like Who's On First in this chat
guilty

Hi all. Need clue for one of the 8s please. Ty

I can't believe paragon doesn't exist in this grid.

i’m bored today. Have eaten decent food, rather than only cupcakes. scooped and filled litter boxes, listening to classic punk, dunno. havent felt this kind of boredom in a lonng, long time.
ennui
ennui, indeed. Maybe i should go for a walj.
walk even.
Maybe you need a cupcake.
i got some minis last night, had 3 then, and three for breakfast. that’s plenty for now.
DC a walk should definitely help!

Take care! Hope you feel better

maybe you should test your eyes hoke :)
encow - to give someone a cow
lol that helped
I said encow earlier but it was to put cattle in a field
I'm glad it did, I do like the subtle clue :)

I'd like a stubble clue instead of a subtle one
well, I am stuck

one of our home chef meals, either a stuffed pepper or flautas
I'd go the pepper...but that's just me
are you just guessing 5 because that's mostly what I have left or is there a p5 meal here?
oh...I was guessing that p5 was a missing p, because there's a single p5
but it could be of the 5/6 pairs
you might have a different missing one to me :)
yeah, was wondering if there's a 6/7 pair in my P or A
not the p :)
although i have a p to go
there is an odd p 5 word....odd to me anyway, but it's a 5/6 combo...
and hello....
pen!
I do have an a6/7 combo and am missing two a's
carla!
well odd is a key descriptor in some sense
my a6/7 is from the lower A.
yes, that's where I'm still missing 2 as well
I just need 1 there
i am missing two from the lower A....
you have a p to go, i have to go p
oh, well then not from a either :)
I have completed the other A's
haha
me, too...
it's like we're symbiotic pen
HOW CAN YOU HAVE AB WORDS?
they would be abnoormal
especially in a grid with no b
ok, the p's were an odd 5/6 set 🤣, c was a plural, and a's still working on.
i still have 11 left....
