Today I can play! I really regretted being too busy yesterday, the grid looked so promising. Thanks Krys10, for the stats!

c/7/44 leading to c/8/60

sprite

2:57 am

All I have to offer so far is S6/36 x 2 and S6/27.

sprite

3:03 am

Found the 7-8 combo. Nice find, izzy! Never thought of taking that direction myself. And adding i6/21.

sprite

3:07 am

T6/24

3:33 am

O6/21 related to the i6

and a w/6/36

3:58 am

S6/18: the woman with the ample bosom is back!

sprite

4:57 am

One more Y, two more Ws, one more S... why are those last ones always so elusive? And why, when I finally find them, are they so obvious?

Bash

10:27 am

I beolieve the last six hasn't been mentioned: it's a D6/27.

12:22 pm

All these words where the second letter is 'i' are killin' me!!

sprite

12:23 pm

wilson27fan, I can't find anything unpleasant in your question of yesterday! Since it is the counting that takes up most of the time, I tried to find a way to let a computer do that for us. A friend of mine made the statmaker for me. You are all welcome to use it and save yourself some trouble. :D

sprite

12:28 pm

As for the 7-8 combo: I actually thought it meant something like "the act of making an exact duplicate". But it doesn't. *lol* I'd better learn some more english... The 7 is "a succession of rapidly alternating muscular contractions and relaxations (abnormality in neuromuscular activity)". The 8 is the plural.

Bash

12:32 pm

thanks for the clues - I like YOUR definition! Helped me find them right away. :)

ruth u on????

im stuck on c's i have c4/6 c5/14... can any1 help??

Bash

2HOTT, see sprite's clues at 12:28? Those will get you the other 2...

just found them... thanks for the hint anyway Bash! I really should start being abit nosey and read the chat for hints!! what country is it mothers day???? HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TOO THOSE WHO IT IS FOR!! UK had mothers day already in march.

Bash

2:07 pm

if those clues don't help, think of: the state of being dolly the sheep. Then make it plural. :)

going slow at 66 words...

Bash

2:08 pm

Do you mark mother's day on international woman's day (mar 8)?

havent heard of that b4???

Bash

2:12 pm

Bash

2:13 pm

Ah. I guess it's really only a big deal (int'l womans day) in Russia, then.

Bash

Bash

2:16 pm

you have more than me, so I may not be much help. I have 2 e4/5s - the only one where I have more than you.

Bash

2:18 pm

san fran is good. cool weather, friendly people, not like the rest of the us politically, etc. Very expensive, but you have the good end of the exchange rate right now, so it's a good time to visit.

Bash

2:21 pm

Sorry, I have to take care of life for a bit, so I'll be away for a while. Good luck with the grid, HOTT. nice chatting with ya!

ok chat 2 u later!! have a good day!

Krys10

5:17 pm

The Y that you're missing is a ethnic slur (slang)

Bash

5:18 pm

yi4/8 - The passive, female cosmic principle in Chinese dualistic philosophy

Krys10

5:20 pm

i think you're talking about the Y4/7.

Bash

5:21 pm

OOps, you're right, sorry. The ethnic slur is just one letter different! Hope you find it, HOTT!

A regulated selection of foods, as for medical reasons or cosmetic weight loss. To plunge briefly into a liquid, as in order to wet, coat, or saturate. Use the word found with the above clue and swop the laST letter!!! (sorry brain not working) To prepare for action or use; to make ready; to dight. Hope these clues are ok??/!! I clicked on the icon next to the word to get a definition
