12:41 am

im new here

12:41 am

nose

12:42 am

howdy! It means that there are three ro7 words that have been found so far - seven letter words starting with ro.

12:42 am

You need to put words in the "Add Word" text box under the grid, by the way

12:43 am

The chat isn't where folks say the specific words they've found - you enter those in where it says Add Word underneath the square of words - but folks often call out the biggest words via that coding

12:43 am

oh okay

12:43 am

and what is Qu

12:44 am

instead of just giving the Q tile it includes the U, too (since most q words have qu in them)

12:45 am

so both lettes come in a word?

12:45 am

yeah.

12:45 am

it's the only one like that. Everything else is just one letter

12:45 am

Oh okayy, tysm

12:46 am

and will the answers be put up later?

12:46 am

super if you click on the help button at the top you will find the explanation of the game and how to play there.

12:47 am

You can find the answers for previous puzzles by clicking "Archives" at the top

12:48 am

No answers - unfortunately _ archives are just the chat log

12:48 am

answers are not there in archieves

12:49 am

so how to find it later?

12:49 am

You need to click on the day of the puzzle - the answers to today's puzzle won't be there yet

12:49 am

Don't believe you can

12:49 am

even yesterdays is not there in archives

12:50 am

Sorry - just checked. The answers used to be there, but Dr. God (whose site this is) had to change servers recently, so I guess they're gone now :(

12:51 am

Oh okay, just needed to know those 7,8,9, 10 letter words later

12:52 am

Keep an eye on the chat - or you can use Licketys list for clues to them

12:52 am

You can also check the link for Lickety's Babble Clues at the bottom, under the heading "Friends of Babble"

12:54 am

also, there are word lists we use sometimes to help find words, morewords is one, and A to Z, I think it's called? I haven't used that one. In morewords you can type in a list of letters that are NOT in the grid so it will only show words that could be.

12:54 am

(which I think is pretty handy)

1:52 am

anyone here? please? with sugar on top....

Morning!

1:52 am

hey matty

How are you, Rose? Just over a month before I get to Australia!

1:53 am

you wouldn't happen to have the se 6/24, after se 4/5, to post a letter?

1:54 am

doing well matty. we are off to new zealand in 2 weeks, will be back before your arrival. going over for gruvie kiwi's wedding.

I do not - but I've only fairly recently started. I'll have a look

That sounds lovely! One day I'll get to NZ!

I'm not finding that SE - it's the usually thing - I feel like I've tried every possible combination, but clearly I have not

Ah HAH! Found it. Book two of a series, say

It's actually an SE6/27

2:02 am

oh Matty. you're my hero. XXXXXXXXX

Backatya! :)

2:03 am

that's what i meant... loll

2:05 am

i was nearly crossed eyed looking for it. was so totally stuck thinking it must be sen...

2:06 am

7:32 am

that's the se6/18, and ty, didn't have that yet. but there is also an se6/27.

subsequent movies in a series

7:38 am

guess there are two se6/18's

I have 2

but still need 32 s's, so there's prob more

7:39 am

meow (hi all )

howdy, why are we meowing?

7:40 am

Hi Je!

7:40 am

just one, an se6/21

7:40 am

because I dropped in the other day and Molls said: Look who the cat dragged in! lol

ha!

7:42 am

I am guessing I would make much of a headway in this grid. . . especially since I am sooooo out of practice

it is a big one, I'm still on 3rd row

7:46 am

I may have to se6/18 for NBT!

I am still on HOET for now

7:47 am

👍🏻

7:48 am

whoohoo that worked! I am getting to be a nerd in my old age!

😁

well, the HOET fell apart but I need to get moving. 87 left for later.

7:56 am

bye hokie. . . have a good day

7:59 am

i don't seem to get past the first T. All roads seem to lead to it.

8:00 am

The T's are giving me a headache. Hate when you look at a letter and type from it, only to find you're actually filling in another tile.

8:00 am

exactly I did just find one from the second T on the top row! finally

8:01 am

I have them both, but don't ask me which they were!

8:01 am

hahaha

8:03 am

BBL for my last 40. Good luck everyone!

8:03 am

bye Champ

8:12 am

duty calls. . . back again some time. 243 left! 😁

8:17 am

clue for ro7/40, please?

8:18 am

a game you play in the yard hitting balls with sticks under metal arches, minus first letter

8:18 am

mallets not sticks i guess

8:18 am

Very odd words those two t's in column one. They sound British.

8:19 am

plural of the ro 6/27 before it, uses the high point tile

8:19 am

Does anyone play that anymore? We used to play all the time when I was a kid.

8:19 am

i don't know, we did too. been replaced with cornhole maybe

8:20 am

ty jeepers and rbud :-)

8:20 am

Cornhole...I can't even go there.

8:20 am

haha

8:21 am

Who thought that was a good name for the game, given the slang connotation?

8:21 am

right?

8:22 am

I know of a guy in a nearby town that bought bazillions of the sets at yard sales, just to get the wooden balls. He painted them to match his house trim and attached them to the "wedding cake" trim all over under the roof edge, makes a cute "fringe-y ball" effect. Like some do to their car windshields. Makes me smile when I drive by. :D

8:23 am

Odd choice of house decoration.

8:24 am

It's different, for sure, but cute. He also has dozens of lovely rose bushes, and the main house color is peachy/coral. Unique.

8:28 am

te10/70...any clues?

8:29 am

Looking for that too, phaeton

8:30 am

te + lion zodiac sign + what comes out of a hot iron, change the last letter

8:30 am

it might help to find the te7/28 before it😏

8:30 am

ty Molly, great clue

8:32 am

Super clue, Molly! I was fumbling about with the creepy evangelist from Texas, first name Joel, last name very similar to the last of the word.

8:34 am

ty Molly

thanks, both. took both clues for me because I am slow. and he is creepy.

and thanks for the 7, phae

and now back to work

reorganizing today

8:51 am

That evangelist has that "I am insane" look in his eyes

8:53 am

Agreed! (and I suspect they invented the term "megachurch" for him, scary. Huge place.)

8:56 am

The way certain "leaders" can influence people is very scary.

9:03 am

You'd think it should register as sketchy when they sell tickets to the sermons, seems to me.

9:14 am

They think they are taking the HIGHway to Heaven, I guess.

9:29 am

good afternoon everyone :)

2:06 pm

have to say I've never heard of that evangelist either, but then I don't ever watch those shows either. Can't have much respect for someone who turns religion into a business as those people seem to do.

I give up at 61 left :_)

2:38 pm

FWs

2:38 pm

well, I still need 16 4's so I'm surely missing similar

3:32 pm

ty for de6 carla

so, I've been looking for that di7 at the top and just realized it could be from the bottom.

3:33 pm

It's from the top

can you spare a clue?

3:34 pm

Rhymes with a girl's name

3:34 pm

Sounds like pop star Spears

muchas gracias

3:35 pm

I guess i spared too late

3:38 pm

😊

3:39 pm

Well, fine then. No more clues from me! ;)

you just have to remember I'm slow and that clue is too open for me

and yadda yadda yadda, enable misses words

3:43 pm

back with 14 to go! it's been a lovely grid

I've actually hated it

glad you like it

3:44 pm

my whole 3rd col is white, all the other cols grey, it's pretty amusing

not my cup of tea

finally found my Q though, so now first col gray

I do agree that the middle col is the worst though

3:46 pm

tryna knock out some 4s here

13-10-8-6-2

I could try to find some 4s

3:49 pm

2-2-4-3

3:49 pm

i have two ts words

I need 3 from each of those T's and also have 2 TS

do you have the 6 that is why you get a certain vaccine?

3:51 pm

3:53 pm
