Hi Everyone, welcome to another wonderful day of babbling! Can't wait! Although - I have a quesion to you all :
12:18 am
cybernan
d 7/48 x2
12:18 am
chic
Howdy, All!
12:18 am
cybernan
we're waiting lickety!
12:19 am
Dianne
O.K. lickety - I'll bite - what's your question?
12:19 am
licketySplitAUS
We all use clues, hints, tips, web resources, even past experiences. But when, is it too much ofr you as - Who you are?
12:20 am
licketySplitAUS
What is your limit?
12:20 am
licketySplitAUS
I've love to provide hints with just the right level of hint - but not too far ?
12:21 am
Avaneko
When my brain explodes.
Or more likely...when I'm tired.
12:21 am
licketySplitAUS
Is 3 letters too much?
12:21 am
mrpresident
can you type in english please!
12:21 am
Angelsong
hello, lickety!
12:22 am
mrpresident
three letters is too much
12:22 am
licketySplitAUS
Is 2? What about reverse clues ? Last letters ? Or maybe count of word and first and last letters?
12:22 am
Dianne
I think how much time is left also has to do with just how much of a hint I will give. If it is crunch time then I'll lead someone to the word.
12:23 am
licketySplitAUS
What about vowel count and first letter?
12:23 am
mrpresident
vowel count doesn't help because you have to monkey type those anyway
12:24 am
licketySplitAUS
What about first letter and random one other letter?
12:24 am
Dianne
where is all this leading?
12:25 am
LeslieAnn
i like clues the best that break down the different parts of the word, then you can figure it out a part at a time. but i don't mind third letter.
12:25 am
helenkeller
lick - are you still celebrating st. paddy's day?!? :)
12:25 am
mrpresident
yeah lickety, what are you 'plannng'!?
12:25 am
LeslieAnn
what i don't like is googling definitions, no guessing involved
12:26 am
Voyager I
I like it when I type something in as a joke and it's a word...
12:26 am
helenkeller
i agree leslie - don't like the defs
12:27 am
licketySplitAUS
I'm just curious - cause it's such a great game.
Don't change what fits huh?
12:27 am
Dianne
I hate googling. I like clues like rhymes, using people's names, movie titles, etc.
12:27 am
helenkeller
i just popped in to take a peak at the puzzle - looks like a good one, going to bed now - good night everyone
12:27 am
Avaneko
stats are up at Anon.
12:27 am
licketySplitAUS
there's an idea - Joke Definitions.
There are many words I've never heard of though ;-)
12:28 am
Dianne
why is it lickety that i don't believe this was all idle curosity.........sure there isn't something else?
12:29 am
licketySplitAUS
Ok, I'll confess. I'm a programmer and I can produce Stats. Love the game, thought I'd just prob some minds on what sort of stats I could produce that would make me 'loved'.
12:29 am
cybernan
Don't like googling either - nor a 2 z - agree with Leslie and Dianne
12:30 am
mrpresident
oh, the stats you have provided are wonderful! alot of people have said so... you are loved!
12:30 am
Dianne
lickety - you're loved :)
12:40 am
LeslieAnn
um, i think r 8/45 was announced about 40 minutes ago, but i'm doing it again because i'm excited I found it!
12:43 am
cybernan
Just found it too, Leslie!
12:45 am
mrpresident

1:52 am
Angelsong

1:58 am

2:01 am

If I try 'readable' one more time, I will have to kick myself.
2:03 am
Angelsong
I keep wanting "pewter", but it isn't happening....

2:08 am
Angelsong
I need one more P. last pe6
2:09 am
mrpresident
that is one sexy scotsman that won the 200m backstroke medal!!
A first for me... I would never have used 'sexy' and 'scotsman' in a sentence before ! ;)
2:10 am
mrpresident
pe6 same as gas you put in your car, but change the last vowel to another vowel
2:10 am
sprite
Hahahaha... and why not? I kinda like them. :)
2:11 am
mrpresident
Sprite, we are the colonies, we get the outcasts down here LOL! Haven't seen a sexy scot in forever!!
2:14 am
mrpresident
griff!! long time no see... how you feeling!?
2:15 am
Griffums
I'm doing okay, thanks. Healing slowly. Exhausted at the moment bc I have a weekend foster puppy - 8 month old husky. It's 11:15pm here and thank DOG that I finally found his OFF switch...
2:15 am
sprite
Ah, of course! Same reason many people here say they don't like our immigrants from morocco or turkey - because all you see of them is the unpleasant types. And all those pleasant types are either still at home or just don't attract that much attention.
2:15 am
Griffums
...and I need help here because I seem to be missing *one* R and it's driving me rrrrrrreally nuts.
2:16 am
sprite
Griffs! Am I glad to see you. We are missing you around here. Someone told me I should wish you well and tell you she misses you too... just forgot who it was.
2:16 am
Griffums
Whoever it was, I'm sure I miss her and wish her well too. :) Tx.
2:17 am
mrpresident
that would be everyone sprite!! LOL
2:17 am
Griffums
I know it's been forever since I checked in. GW's kids are probably in college by now. :D
2:17 am
mrpresident
married with children actually LOL!
2:18 am
sprite
I do feel stupid about this, LOL! I could read up some logs to find out, of course.
2:18 am
Griffums
Really? I heard the older one got a divorce...
2:18 am
mrpresident
onto the third marriage too...
2:18 am
sprite
One of them named his grandson after you, I believe.
2:19 am
Griffums
heeeeeeee! you gals are funny!
2:20 am
sprite
Great to see you laugh ;)
2:20 am
Griffums
All right, seriously now, help me get this last R. I think it's re 6. And I will feel stupid when it's an obvious one, but not as stupid as I will if I don't get it at all...
2:20 am
mrpresident
you healing well?
and what happened to the 'stupid' one in the other car?
2:21 am
Griffums
I'm doing a lot better since the massage therapist worked on me. Going back again in a few days. Haven't had any run-in's (so to speak) with the stupid one, though a big red truck shot out into the street in front of me this morning. Deja vu all over again only this time no crunch at the end, thank goodness.
2:21 am
mrpresident
re6 - is that the 'say it again' one?
2:21 am
sprite
I have a Re6/27 that means trying to get it/her pregnant again. Past tense.
2:22 am
Griffums
No, I have say it again, and I have sketch it again...
2:22 am
Griffums
Yessssssss that was it sprite, thanks!
2:23 am
sprite
Then it might be mine. Like you do with dogs.
2:23 am
Griffums
Speak for yourself!
2:24 am
sprite
I stand corrected. Like some people do with dogs and horses. Perhaps someone should do it with them :)
2:27 am
Griffums
:))))
Oops, puppy is awake and Hunter is begging me please DO something - he is trying to be a good host but is just thrashed by constant puppy annoyance. I'll be back tomorrow to finish. So good to see you - night!

ruthy
morning all
can anyone please give me a clue for the re 6/33
3:53 am
ruthy
sorry i meant the re 6/27
3:53 am
Haz1558
re 6/33 - the artist did his sketch over again
3:54 am
Haz1558
re 6/27 - add the ending of the expression 'born and ?'
3:55 am
eeb
hi, what does the number behind the / mean?
3:56 am
Haz1558
re 6/27 means that there are 6 letters in the word and that you get 27 points for that word. That is reached by adding up the point value of the letter tiles and multiplying by 3. 5 letter words are doubled and so on.
3:56 am
amandacath
ebb - the number of points: re6/27 = starts with re, has 6 letters, 27 points
Any help for the other y? I've got the unit of time...
3:56 am
eeb
ah, thanks muchly.
3:57 am
ruthy

8:08 am
Uneaixoise
Jac :-D
8:08 am

8:23 am
lola100
Cool! I'll see if I can find it some time : )
8:24 am
faeriekae
Yes, It is a good flick if you have nothing to do. I actually bought the movie because I really liked it. I've watched it 1/2 dozen times I'm sure. The humor is a little sick but IT'S FUNNY.

Haz1558
That's good, faerie - you were a bit distracted yesterday. By the way, what is the record for a telephone conversation with one of your sisters?
9:03 am
Haz1558
Hello, lola and everyone else.
9:04 am
movieman
Greeting, Haz....
9:05 am
faeriekae
LOL - one of my sissy call me every day and the record (can't believe you ask that question and I know the answer) was 41/2 hr with my sis Linda. Back when I was going through a divorce. We are very close.
9:06 am
macuser
Good morning/afternoon, everyone :)
faerie - you've got me beat... my sister and I have talked for 2.5 hours and her name is Linda also, heh
9:06 am
Haz1558
Good grief! Your phone bills must be amazing! I thought having teenage daughters was the key to huge phone bills.....
9:08 am
faeriekae
No Haz - we call on our cell phones and it is free from cell to cell....We all use Nextel and for $43 per month we can talk as much as we want. I don't even have long distance on my home phone at all.
9:09 am
faeriekae
Masuer - Thats wild. Is she a Bitch like my sister? I tell everyone that I have 6 sisters and they are all Bitches I'm the only nice one. *teehee*
9:10 am
macuser
lol, faerie... yes, since she's my only sister, she's the bitch by default ;) I also have 3 brothers
9:10 am
Haz1558
That sounds like a very good deal you have there, faerie. The slogan for the British telephone company is 'It's good to talk'. We've spent years trying to convince our younger, very chatty daughter that it's a marketing slogan and not a commandment!

It was an actual Candid Camera movie, produced by Alan Funt. 1971 or so. It was X rated at the time, would probably be PG 13 by today's standards.

Welcome Orlo -- we tend to ignore the total point score here -- There are 143 words in today's board however
3:37 pm
Tim
chic scroll down to 3:34 log
3:37 pm
GreyWoulf
So has there been any further word from Smeltz?
I haven't had the time to play the past couple of days :(

3:38 pm

Greywoulf, how does one know how many words there are to find?
3:39 pm

GW - I haven't seen Dogman... but I haven't been on since last weekend either, so I guess I am not a good person to answer that question!

Tim, do you have the eagles' nest spleeled 2 ways?
3:41 pm
Tim
clue for the ey5/14 please?
3:42 pm
renfield
sure does balker
3:42 pm
GreyWoulf
Orlo -- don't worry, we all started out in your shoes. You have plenty of resources at your disposal --
In the box to the right, the Friends of Babble the Links that are the most helpful are Babbler's Anonymous where you can find a breakdown of the current puzzle by first two letters, total length and score in the General Topic;
AngelSong's Babble Page which is chock full of all sorts of Babbly goodness to help find the words;
And the Babbler 4 Dummies which has bunches of stuff as well. (I haven't had time to explore it fully yet as it is a new addition ;) )
3:42 pm
chic
Tim, add an eye to the one before...
3:42 pm
ionesco
I only just started this today, and I have 59 words left to find- but I seem to be running out of words I know. Is there some trick to finding bizarre words that one might not normally use?
3:43 pm
Angelsong
andreacfm, if you sign up for a Pro membership, you have access to a stats panel that tells how many words there are; otherwise, you can look at the Stats list on Babbler's Anonymous/General/Stats for the date; or ask any Babbler. Also, check out my Babble page via the link to the right under the Friends of Babble list.
3:44 pm
Angelsong
re8? I have the one for renewing vows...
3:44 pm
GreyWoulf
Then of course there is the best, most funnest, resource of all -- The Chat Log and your fellow Babblers!! ;D
If you spend the money to go Pro, you also gain access to a stats screen which gives you a basic breakdown of the grid by total word count broken down by length, as well as how many words originate from each square :)
3:45 pm
Tim
Thanks chic now Im missing one ey4/6 have the eagles nest, and one who looks
3:45 pm
GreyWoulf
A big welcome to andrea and ione as well!!!!
3:46 pm
arfnarfsi
I really don't see how this game is any better than boggle...the points dont really change how you find words, so it seems that they're almost arbitrary. If you find 50 words, you find 50 words, the points make no difference in your inevitable personal outcome.
3:46 pm
mamabear
Welcome babble newbies!!!! Always nice to see new faces!!!! (sorta!) But be warned.... once you enter Babbleonia, there is no turning back....
3:46 pm
Tim
welcome to all the newbies. beware (very addictive) :)
3:46 pm

thanks everyone for all the info!! I think I'm addicted, I've been working on this for 3 hours while my husband is watching NCAA hoops.
3:47 pm
arfnarfsi
not to sound too negative....
3:47 pm
Angelsong
Mama, how goes it with your Babble Page?
3:48 pm
mamabear
arfnarfsi - since this is not really a competitive environment, we don't really dwell much on the point value, it's just finding and learning new words - more a challenge of the hunt to find them all...
3:48 pm
Tigereye
arfnarfsi the points count towards your score in the rankings, and it also makes it easier to differentiate between words when you're looking for them/asking for clues
3:48 pm
GreyWoulf
arfnarfsi -- the points come into play sometimes when asking for help. Or if you are trying to randomly type a word (commonly referred to as monkeytyping) knowing the point score allows you to eliminate some combos :)
3:48 pm
chic
Tim, use the nest, drop the 'e' and add first vowel....

GreyWoulf
chic - why torture me like this? -- I didn't have anything quite that old, but until recently, I had 3 large comic book storage boxes of comics I had collected over the past 20 years that were destroyed by water damage. The worst part was I didn't know until I actually opened the bags. The water had seeped in and turned the pages into so much mulch :o

4:19 pm
