Good grief! Some of the C's are bullcrap.

I have ac 7/32
Working on the second one now.

I made up an an6 earlier
that's my last a could i get a hint on that bea?

the an is the insect eating ursa

phantom fractal

equally stymied on the L
I also rarely get de5/12 right off the bat.

@carla....No, but how fun would that be?
@champ, the points will help if you want

ah, thanks
24 - 3-8-11-2 AA CCC B T TT RRRRR LLLL FFF FFF
i need one of the four corner i
there are 2 in6 there
ok
both 6/18?
no, a 21
it's more normal word than the 18

playing a grid with no S feels like playing one-handed or something
we've had a lot of S's lately
three cheers for Ss!
clue for the an7?
bea clued it, prob still on scren
nope
pest + ursa
It looks like 2 animals. Picnic pest and teddy
huh. so there's an*lion AND this an7? how funny
ty...FW
Yep!
congrats
congrats phae
Wtg! Can you clue the ac7 please?
TY...any clues wanted?
add 2 letters to ac5
a...auto...not out...vowel
there seem to be more birds dashing from place to place in a hurry in my yard this morning
i wonder if there is a fox out there or a stray cat or something
I meant the 2nd one. My fault.
probably a serial killer cat
....and...just found it!
not a bad thing, i didn't have either of them!
oh, there's 2 AC7? bea never mentioned that.
well now i have them both
ok, guess I need a clue
The second one builds off the ac 5/12
the 2nd ac5/12 then?
phae GAVE the clue
that's the one I have
I GAVE the clue too. LOL
no, the first one builds off the first ac5/12
phae's clue was different from yours
sometimes i feel like i'm the only one who reads the chat
but we were cluing the same word
no, there are two ac7
I'll just look it up, thanks
phae clued the first and you clued the second.
10:10
the one phae clued is the one I have, and you literally do what I said at 10:10, add 2 letters to the ac5.
FW!
oh, ok. then do the same thing with the second ac5/12 yeah.
so based on phae's clue I absolutely have that one and clued that one.
your clue works for both as it turns out
so i thought you were cluing the second
cause that is what i used it for
that's pretty hilarious actually
Man...doing Babble really drives home how STUPID the English language is!
and how it's possible to give a clue that works for the word you need and not even know it!
sorry i was snappish hokie
maybe you're not the only one who reads the chat
I just thought I was taking crazy pills. was that gaslighting?😜
inadvertent gaslighting perhaps
hello all....i just read the chat twice and i am confused, lol....only have found the one ac 7....there really are two?
pen!
it's just when you clued, i didn't have the first ac5. so i used it on the second and got the second 7. so then i thought you had that one and had clued that one.
yes, there are 2
each ac7 adds two letters to an ac5, pen
building off two ac 5 words...
yes
ty...
it's a very good illustration of what can happen when people don't have all the information, really
Ns Nipped!
1-8-11-1
As Axed!
just remembered is that ra7 champ was talking about

1-8-10 double ugh
oh, there's another ra6 I could've sworn I tried.
any aa words?
no
found a C!
and a normal one at that
what's the 8?
EN
doh, my last 4. 0-7-9
is it related to the en7?
nope
it is a compound
This grid is frustrating me!
oooh monkeyed it, weird one
i can understand that, origami
ok i have 5-5-8 now
hey ori, me too. I think there must be a lot of weird 6's, which isn't my forte.
weird 6s suck
just found an L6
the only one of those i have is the thing that's straight
this means gull like
did not have the straight word, thanks
0-7-7 seven up!

which M would i have missed? mine are all fours
mo5
5 ac, 6 an
normal word
*groan* thanks
perhaps tr5/12 you need
funny how as soon as you mention it it's right there
maybe fi6/27, fr6/27... maybe fr5/16 that ends in a double cons
oh, there's a uk sp
of which
fr6. I do have the ta6 one.
i don't!
ok got it
I was quite proud of finding that one on first pass🤣
that fr5 with double cons took me a while but I finally found it!
Cs Conquered!
2-2-5
0-5-6 A CC B T T RR L F F
my last C was ca5/18
the last C in the list is a ca6/21
the second row t has 2 ta6.18
def. both of those
bea is back!
i've been here
I thought you probably went to lurk mode
back when hurshy was gaslighting me🤣
i need to watch that movie
the original? I watched in in the last year or so.
ok, I assume that last ca6 has to start with feline but nothing is working.
finally monkeyed it
similar to Ms. Jenner
I'm sure there's more than one girl somewhere whose parents spelled it this way.
0-4-5. slowly but surely (not)
my oldest ones has the I after the A

i won't be planting much as i planted native perennials and grasses last year
no it was my missing B
i went to the list since you said you were going to the list
well, one R was RI6 that I tried several times with the wrong last letter
Walking the dog up here in NJ, there are a bunch of snow drops already up. It's insane. This is not normal.
I started at the bottom
oh, more snow, leigh?
no snow, just flowers and buds!
oh snowdrop the FLOWER
i love snow drops. My daffs are up and about 3" tall
hehe, yes. :)
lol, I don't know that one
but it does make more sense now
I saw some things poking out on the corner here, prob about 3" and prob daffodils or jonquils. I don't think I saw any croci here last year. (FTR, I have said croci for many years to be funny because my mom always corrects me to crocuses, but croci is on enable.)
phew, done
my 7 letter maiden name is one letter off, and no I'm not telling it

It was a benefit up in Stockton -- we won! We got 75 out of 100, and were first among 19 teams. Won by one point.

the E tile is annoying me... I have ea4, en5, en7
Missing one, and my monkeys are on strike
car--
nrk i am following a friend's birthday trip to iceland on FB. It is astounding.
EN8 is a compound
oh nice... iceland was a trivia clue last night too :)
They closed a road in iceland to let what creatures pass? Sheep... Fairies... Puffins?
thanks, hokie... will look
icelandic ponies?
nah, it was multiple choice, so you have to pick from those
I picked fairies, but our team went with sheep while I wasn't paying attention
oh sorry. sheep?
nope, fairies
of course.
any land that produced bjork is one i want to see.
EN 8 is a compound... hmmmm
people go diving in the lakes between the tectonic plates.
oof, found it
kept overlooking that 2nd N
i found it as well.
wow, that's a real thing
thanks, hokie!
rekjavik is awesome
13 to go 2-2-5-4
i need to do some work. i was out all day yesterday. I volunteers at a improv comedy festival. interesting
see ya!
carla - are you still here?
guess enable's creators have never heard of inline skates
clue please for the EN8,55
use your head
or put your mind to work
or give you a piece of my mind
the answer is lurking at the back of my mind
an 7 please?
an7 is a compound word
did you find the en 8, Mary?
no still working on it but it doesn't register in my BR5
try going to the very last part of your br5
add that word to the en and you have it
does the an 7 begin with the picnic pest?
sorry for the delay on the an7 clue, cybernan, I only found it about 1/2 second before Mary clued it :)
yes
it's a creature
aardvark, I think
not finding it
put two creatures together
ty nrkii
off for breakfast and chores - bbl
phantom carnation

bye nrkii
Name that Proper Noun - West African country
first ra 6/18 please?
I see that the district in Venice is accepted today - other days it as not been
ct
Benin
Done :)
Well, googling Venice districts did me no good. (There are six of them, apparently, and it appears that none of them are in the grid.)
One is. It's only the first word of a two-word district.
think common name for a theater, esp cinema
fini
old style, that is. when theaters were palaces, not plexes
o of course! A very tall ri.
lito
lift
sorry just monkeying around the wrong box
pay no attention to that man behind the curtain
cybernan - You got it! You win a gallon of Palm Oil!
Ra6/21…….clue please
Nvm …..found it
Pretty straightforward word
2nd ac7 pls?
alif
oops
Second ac7 ends in Mr. Gore
thx molly
anta
dang it, sorry again
en8 pls?
not the start + the thing you think with
never ever ever heard of en8
Oh - not technically a "district" of Venice, but the name of an "area"
The en8 appears to be a very technical anatomical term, also known as the "telencephalon", which is confusingly part of the fo10 (ends the same way, starts with a word for "front").
(ty for help on the Venice area)
evening all
woot! late FW, yay me!
