12:18 am

boatierra

Dr. G-d, you are such a tease!! Oh, I guess I'll just have to go back to figuring the words out by hand. Thanks for the free stats, it was fun while it lasted ;)

12:18 am

You're supposed to say that you can't live without the stats panels. :)

12:19 am

ls1

12:20 am

LeslieAnn

dr. g, you have to be messing with the grids for that te 4/6 word to show up, right?

12:20 am

LeslieAnn

and hello and good morning, btw :)

12:21 am

boatierra

I can live w/o the stats panel. I can't live w/o my utilites. One day (soon), I'll have a few extra shekels to pass onto my favorite game. Until then, I just have extra money to buy chocolate. Priorities ;)

You're one of the old gang then, boatierra ;)

1:40 am

broll

boat - you could have started before then, but skipped a day or two (or more)

1:41 am

boatierra

Indeed. I saw a lot of old names. Lots of folks have come and gone.

1:42 am

boatierra

Broll - I figure as much. I tried searching by the 15ths and 30ths of each month, to try and narrow down the search. I'll take another look later.

1:42 am

sprite

Don't think I have any idea when I started babbling.

1:42 am

sprite

Hi there Krys! The sudoku is easy today, so no one lingers there long, I guess.

1:59 am

Krys10

it will take me longer since i keep switchign back and forth....

1:59 am

wassup

i'm in hillsboro krys

2:00 am

sprite

And switching your mind from right half to left half and back! :)

2:01 am

sprite

I am down to 9 and I just cannot find them. Argh!

2:01 am

wassup

i haven't signed up with ironsudoku yet. i'm afraid of the addiction...

2:01 am

wassup

9!? i have 77 and started at the flip!

2:01 am

Krys10

no wonder I'm dizzy. wassup, I'm driving all over Oregon this summer on a long road trip... mostly the coast and the OT, though..

2:01 am

sprite

Keep practising, wassup, and you will be faster in no time :)

2:02 am

wassup

oh, are you going to newport?

2:03 am

wassup

sprite, i'd be done if i'd just stop chatting, but where's the fun in that? :) ok, i wouldn't be done, but more done...

2:04 am

sprite

I can't refrain from chatting either, it's too much fun ;)

2:04 am

mattygroves

Good morning all - happy Friday (horrah). How's today's puzzle?

2:04 am

wassup

hello matty

2:04 am

wassup

pretty easy

2:05 am

sprite

It's nice, matty, some beautiful words. Also a couple of babblets.

2:05 am

Krys10

babblets? is that like sonnets?

2:05 am

mattygroves

Oooh, babblets - the bane of my life. How long did it take y'all to remember those weird and wonderful words (like my mother's 'etui')?

2:06 am

sprite

Babblets are words you will never use or find anywhere else but here (and in crosswords maybe). Like anoa. And etwee.

2:06 am

wassup

the only other one i know is ywis

2:06 am

sprite

My all time favorite, wassup!

2:07 am

wassup

it's so obvious too. when are you ever going to have another yw word... :)

2:07 am

mattygroves

My mum was so disappointed when she discovered it wasn't pronounced as it's spelled - 'etooee'. Yah - you guys defined babblet for me at the weekend - it's just getting used to the ones here.

2:07 am

sprite

Today we have the vulcano(s), Ho4/12, the russian ruler.

2:09 am

sprite

First time 'ywis' appeared in a grid was before the stats times. It drove me completely bananas. But when I found it, finally, I fell in love right away ;)

2:09 am

Krys10

I actually do occasionally use etwee in a conversation.. well, I use etui, actually.

2:09 am

FMitch

.. and don't forget the cheese too.
Morning

2:09 am

sprite

I like pfui or even phooey too.

2:09 am

wassup

we were just talking earlier about pfft and tsks

2:09 am

sprite

Hi FMitch!

2:10 am

wassup

hi fmitch

And the unfairness of aahed and ohed.

2:10 am

wassup

2:10 am

FMitch

Seems a decent grid today, or am I mistaken?

2:11 am

sprite

It's really nice, FMitch!

2:12 am

sprite

Beautiful biggies. Oh, not to mention 'aargh' AND 'aarrgh'!

2:12 am

FMitch

oh good, thanks sprite, I will dive back in then :)

2:12 am

wassup

how is it possible to have that many ag words? :)

2:12 am

Krys10

ok, sudoku's done (another unique rectangle, my favorite new trick) and I'm still wide awake... I give, I'll babble!

2:12 am

sprite

Got to hunt down the 7 last and lost ones and go shopping...

2:13 am

sprite

What's about that rectangle thing, Krys?

2:14 am

wassup

ah, you're just starting your day...i should have finished mine about an hour ago.

2:14 am

Krys10

I just explained it in the chat log over there

2:14 am

sprite

Grid switches for me at 7 am every morning. I love that :)

2:14 am

sprite

*goes back to the sudoku site*

2:15 am

FMitch

2:15 am

wassup

2:20 am

wassup

2:25 am

sprite

Okay, I just refreshed and it still says 0 words to go, so I guess it is okay then. Any clues needed before I go do the dreaded shopping?

2:25 am

Krys10

I just got eh 9 and 10 with teh clues back earlier in the log - thanks to people who posted them!

2:25 am

FMitch

mrpresident

Hello Krys and Fmitch! My day has gone well thanks! Night is now upon us and the kids are about to jump me for the computer... thought I better get on here quick smart!

2:40 am

FMitch

LOL you show them who's boss, or failing that fight for babble""

2:41 am

mrpresident

My daughter has joined the babble ranks and is playing for about half an hour every night... she desperately wants to say hello, so if she does say hi back... her user name is maddison and she is 8 and of course I will be supervising!!

2:42 am

FMitch

Thats great MrP, develop an interest in words from early on. Will certaily say hi if I am around :)

2:43 am

sha

2:44 am

mrpresident

She got 22 words yesterday! She could hardly sleep after that!
Thanks FMitch, she is a bigger chatterbox than me!
The kids love this game and we play boggle here at home so it was quite a progression to get an account and all!

2:44 am

Preethi

Hello Everyone!

2:45 am

mrpresident

Hello Preethi!

2:45 am

mattygroves

My daughter's nearly 15, and she helps a bit (except she was beside herself last night due to a dead goldfish)

2:46 am

mrpresident

Yeah, dead pet anything gets that reaction here at home too! Did you have a buial?

2:48 am

mattygroves

Ummm...more of a flush down the toilet. It's not even her pet - she bought it for a boy she baby sits who turns 3 today. It was called Jeffrey - all mourn Jeffrey.

2:48 am

mrpresident

The 10 letter word was darn hard to find! It is well hidden!

*RIP jeffrey*

2:48 am

Miss ABS

I agree MrP was very hard to find. How was your week by the way?

2:49 am

FMitch

the 9's a good one (compound)

2:49 am

mrpresident

Miss ABS...! how are you and why aren't you Pro yet!!??

2:49 am

KittyVane

That 10 letter one is driving me bonkers! I've read the log and monkey typed for a while now, and nothing!

2:50 am

FMitch

kitty - you probably have the 1st 7 letters and then dont know what to add next? try a 3 letter tiny insect

2:52 am

Miss ABS

I don

2:52 am

Miss ABS

I don

2:52 am

Miss ABS

oops... I don't know why I'm not pro?

2:52 am

Miss ABS

What'd Dr God say?

2:52 am

Miss ABS

my keys stuck there a second.

2:53 am

Miss ABS

I'm doing pretty good Mr P. Had a very long day today. It was sports day at school. It went really well though so that's a plus.

2:53 am

mrpresident

He said fine and we worked out how to do it, I am gonna send him an email right now! I am sending you mail too!

2:54 am

Miss ABS

Okay let me go see if my inbox has something in it.

2:54 am

schwer

WTF "14 day trial over"

2:55 am

Miss ABS

I haven't been able to check my email this week Mr P. School won't let me get into "webmail" or "hosted sites" so I've not been able to get to yahoo.

2:56 am

schwer

Gayer than Fred Phelps

2:56 am

Crooty

Yup, me too Schwer... and I only played 3 times

2:56 am

Atalante

hey crooty :) found john in the grid? :)

2:57 am

schwer

Oh well I guess if you can't spare $15 for Dr. God you'd might as well curl off and die

2:58 am

Avaneko

Oh man. Finally got the ten. How silly!

2:59 am

schwer

Hmmm now that I think about it, I WOULD pay $15 if there was a "regular f*$king English" dictionary option that members would get access to

2:59 am

Atalante

you need to talk to enable about that, not dr_g ...!

3:00 am

schwer

But $15 for a glorified word search that takes hours out of your day only because you have to grope around for some truly asinine words...

3:01 am

KittyVane

I got a paid account today, since I fell in love with the stats and could not live without :)

3:01 am

mattygroves

Don't play then, schwer! It isn't hard (unlike your name)

3:01 am

Atalante

yeah ... or find a game with a different dictionary base!

3:02 am

schwer

Niiiiice matty. Ich bin schwer.

3:02 am

Miss ABS

lol but schwer it doesn't have to take hours out of your day... you choose for it to, that's the beauty of babble!

3:02 am

saffire

Morning all! Worth every pennny going pro. Hours of endless fun!!

3:02 am

mattygroves

Ich weiss! Ich habe gehoert so. Wenn du nicht spielen willst, dann spielst nicht! Einfach!

3:02 am

Miss ABS

you can play as long or short as you like... you can search for words or just simply see how you go.

3:03 am

schwer

Ich bin schill.

3:03 am

saffire

well apart from the re's that is!!

3:05 am

schwer

Very nice matty. I am already less pissed off.

3:06 am

schwer

You even know the umlaut/e-afterwards thing.

3:07 am

schwer

OK bye the f-ing bye people. Enjoy the game that only Fred Phelps could invent!

3:07 am

Nani

anyone get the re10 yet?

3:07 am

Nani

anyone get the re10 yet?

3:07 am

Miss ABS

Yep, I got it this afternoon :D

3:08 am

Nani

explain.... i think

3:09 am

mrpresident

ok missABS! all on a roll!

I must go and have my dinner, back soon ladies and gents!!

3:10 am

Miss ABS

you have to re _____ to play the game... and once you re_____ you become what? That's the best clue I could come up with... hope it's not given too much away

3:10 am

Miss ABS

I'm off for the night. I'm heading out to dinner and a movie! good luck everyone!

3:12 am

Miss ABS

Goodnight everyone

3:14 am

Haz1558

It's a day for playing babble! Is the grid nice?

3:14 am

CJ25

Excellent - apprently - I didnt realise this - my free 14 day trial period has run out so I have no idea how many words there are and its annoying :-(

3:14 am

Krys10

there's 205 words

3:15 am

Krys10

you could always use the clues from lickety's site (link at bottom of page

3:15 am

FMitch

It is a good one today Haz, already at 122 so you will zoom through a lot too.

3:15 am

Atalante

hi all

3:15 am

CJ25

thanks - Ive got 9 so far hehe

3:15 am

Haz1558

That sounds inviting - Atalante, good morning.

3:16 am

Likety - Google Page Creator is having a little trouble right now.

Not very nice weather very windy and raining and my husband has gone to play golf.

3:18 am

carolecs

Morning does anyone have a clue for the li 7, I am not seeing it?

3:19 am

CJ25

Its windier today - yesterday mind you some poor woman pushing a buggy nearly got blown over.

3:19 am

Krys10

boats slightly tilted sidways?

3:19 am

FMitch

if you have the li4/4 add to that or if you have the gl7 take the g off.

3:20 am

FMitch

rosalind, sounds like he is a dedicated rather than fair weather golfer!

3:21 am

Krys10

FMitch, I think you're describing an li6...

3:21 am

rosalind230

Yes he is. He runs a golf society

3:21 am

carolecs

Got it, never heard of that and its not in A-Z either. Thanks for the clues.x

3:22 am

FMitch

Krys you are right and there was me thinking I was fully awake LOL

3:22 am

Krys10

not that my sideways boats clue was much better :)

3:23 am

Haz1558

The clues pointed me in the right direction so they were a help!

3:23 am

FMitch

;)

3:23 am

rosalind230

and they helped me

3:25 am

amandacath

Awww, my stats are gone. DrG gave us a 14-day free trial (I wondered) - back to stat-less playing for me, I guess. Morning, btw

3:25 am

Atalante

at least you got 14 days of it! just go pro :)

3:25 am

Haz1558

Good morning amandacath.

3:25 am

rosalind230

Its worth going pro.

3:26 am

rosalind230

morning amandacath

3:26 am

balker

aww, no fireworks

3:26 am

Haz1558

Schwer seemed to disagree earlier, but I reckon it's well worth the money to go pro.

3:27 am

Atalante

I do too

3:27 am

Krys10

congrats, balker :) It's ridiculously late here - going to bed!

3:27 am

FMitch

sprite didn't get fireworkds when she finished earlier either, sounds like another glitch

3:27 am

amandacath

Maybe I'll give myself pro for Christmas - unfortunately my finances are so tight that $14.95 is a luxury. No fireworks either? Hmmm - oh well, as long as I can play and chat, I'm happy

3:29 am

amandacath

Oh, and I guess I'll have to start asking "how many words today?" again

3:29 am

Haz1558

205 words today

3:30 am

amandacath

Thx Haz - may not be able to finish today.

3:31 am

ilandrah

use licketys clues amandacath - link at the bottom there under friends of babble

3:31 am

amandacath

i generally end up using lickety's list even with the stats - think i've only finished once without it

3:32 am

ilandrah

yeah, same here

3:32 am

Haz1558

I've always used it as well.

3:33 am

rosalind230

I use it when I just see anymore words

3:34 am

rosalind230

that should be just cant see anymore words.

3:36 am

CJ25

amandacath - me too - I never got as far as fireworks anyway hehe

3:39 am

rumplestiltskin

Good Morning Haz, Amandacath, ilandrah, rosalind230, CJ25, everyone. Up for a sec to see what's going on then back to bed.

3:40 am

Haz1558

Hello rumple!

3:40 am

rosalind230

sorry cursor in wrong place

3:42 am

mattygroves

Howdy.

3:53 am

KittyVane

Why isn't "finn" a word?

3:53 am

KittyVane

I'm a finn myself! It should be a proper word :)

3:54 am

Haz1558

It's a proper noun and is capitalised in the dictionary.

3:54 am

KittyVane

mm-m, but apparently the dictionary Babble uses doesn't recognize it :(

3:56 am

Haz1558

It doesn't recognise it because it is a proper noun as in the name of a person or place.

3:56 am

KittyVane

aah! that explains it

3:57 am

KittyVane

I'm not very familiar with the dos and don'ts of Babble words quite yet :)

3:59 am

Haz1558

It's worth trying words because some very unlikely ones get accepted!

4:01 am

FMitch

like the h4/12 in the grid today with no deF

4:03 am

Haz1558

Thank you for that one!

4:03 am

FMitch

LOL yw

4:04 am

rosalind230

yes thanks

4:08 am

rosalind230

any clues for the 9 or 10 word please

4:10 am

FMitch

for the 9 think of that US series Wisteria Lane

4:10 am

Haz1558

re10/84, one who enlists

4:10 am

KittyVane

The 9 is a compund word, for a person who doesn't have a job as such, but takes care of her husband

4:10 am

FMitch

nit's not called that but it takes place there I think

4:11 am

rosalind230

had the two words but didnt put them together thankyou.

4:12 am

Haz1558

ho9/108 - skilled domestic multi-tasker (trying to talk myself up)

4:13 am

KittyVane

Hehe, I'm so going to use that defenition in the future when I talk about what I do! :D

4:16 am

Haz1558

Well, it's time I went and did some of that skilled multi-tasking. I'll be back later to find some more words. Bye all!

4:17 am

FMitch

Bye Haz!

4:17 am

rosalind230

bye Haz see u later

4:25 am

FMitch

Go for it ExWren, good luck and enjoy :)

4:36 am

scatty

mrpresident, you have fireworks already

5:18 am

Jacula

Hi folks. Just started putting my words off paper in. A couple of years ago, Dr_God had to stop animated avatars (icons) because they interfered with the site so I do wonder if the fireworks, being animated, are doing the same. Maybe he's experimenting with leaving them off for that reason?

5:19 am

mrpresident

Hi scatty! not yet, I gave them to ARB cause dr.g's aren't working

5:19 am

Hello folks, I've become a pro member at last. Dr God did the right thing in giving me a taste of that icon . He's put the joining fee up though, so serves me right for not doing it sooner.

8:29 am

melonheadjujube

yeah, grace.

8:30 am

Svet

the word above the one your trying to get, the one before. I guess you have to have the on ebefore to get the next.

8:30 am

melonheadjujube

8:30 am

tndaisy1960

lol the kids won't be able to keep up with YOU today will they Stid;)

12:03 pm

marymary

12:03 pm

EvaNadine

salad pizza?

12:04 pm

abe79

don't gloat stidmama :) i wanted to counteract the large muffin i had for breakfast. yeah salad pizza is for us guilt laden, food folk

12:04 pm

Munner

what happened? I just finished and no fireworks. Woe is me.

12:04 pm

stidmama

Munner -- try a refresh?

12:05 pm

EvaNadine

would that just be a veggie pizza?

12:06 pm

marymary

That's despise gardening. Love the results of other's efforts, though. Time to give up chatting since I can't bloody type straight!

12:06 pm

abe79

yes evanadine it would- i'm allergic to beef so i am weary of pizza toppings (although they looked SO yummy)

12:06 pm

stidmama

abe, wasn't gloating -- after you left we were talking about chocolate cakes and eclairs and fruit pizza... so I went for something that would at least give me the energy to work off the calories! LOL

12:06 pm

Kaetchen

I've made salad pizzas for parties - especially good with hot cheese + cool greens. Yummy.

12:06 pm

Munner

:( Oh, well, tomorrow is another day. Bye all

12:06 pm

abe79

lol stidmama! i'll take an eclair please!

12:06 pm

stidmama

Munner wait...

12:28 pm

Cosby clue? I don't see the word "voobah" in there anywhere~

12:28 pm

Egregious Jones

I've been sort of curious: do you guys try to find words in any particular order? I tend to go from the end of the alphabet to the beginning.

12:29 pm

stidmama

I need two more h from the top to gray that row... have 5/14, 9/108, 4/9, 5/20 and 4/9...

12:29 pm

hurshy

no, there is a word that sounds like the son, marymary

12:29 pm

stidmama

I only try to go in "order" when I am using the list...

12:29 pm

He never showed his face in any of his major movie appearances.....

12:33 pm

faeriekae

Or a drug user

12:33 pm

hurshy

12:33 pm

faeriekae

You've stumped me MM

12:34 pm

stidmama

Matthew would be so proud of me -- he would have known right away though...

12:36 pm

firefly779

*pouts* Unc and I both guessed him by character, do we count as winners?

12:36 pm

hurshy

hmmm, i wonder if my friend ryan mayhew is related to him... he's tall...

12:36 pm

faeriekae

Stid - I also gave some black irises that are just beautiful they are actually a very deep purple and appear to be black.

12:37 pm

stidmama

firefly and Unc, you are winners just for playing the game! here have a consolation eclair

12:37 pm

marymary

It is also the birthdate of both Ho Chi Min & M
alcolm X

12:37 pm

movieman

Firefly - yeah, go on then, I mean nobody else played Chewie.....

12:37 pm

marymary

And Pol Pot

12:38 pm

movieman

Mary - and Andre the Giant.....he would have been 60 today.....

12:38 pm

Uncagain

any prize that has eclairs involved is good enough for me

12:38 pm

stidmama

I am slowly building my iris collection. a few here, a few there... the white iris is the first I actually loooed in a catalog and got -- though mother bought them for me...

12:38 pm

stidmama

I have concentrated mostly on dahlias because I know most about them... :-) I like growing things that will survive my care!

12:38 pm

marymary

And Pete Townsend & Joey Ramone! Weird

12:39 pm

Uncagain

with the PM clue, I was going to guess Peter Marshall, from the game show. Wasnt he a tall guy?

12:39 pm

faeriekae

Stid - I've got the white, peach, purple(black) and standard purple and I have some deep pink ones.

12:39 pm

firefly779

thanks Mman :) just wanted to be part of the club

12:40 pm

faeriekae

Ohhhh I dahlias but I have to dig them up in the fall so I stopped planting them after all my tubes froze in barn a few years back. I should have put them in my basement :(

12:40 pm

stidmama

oh -- there are some lovely ones down at our farmer's market -- I'll have to stop by and get some pics for you. There are some lovely frilly bearded ones with the falls a different color from the tops and that speckling around the edges... I don't have any of that type yet (but soon I think)

12:40 pm

marymary

MM- He was so awesome in Princess Bride. What a great cast- what a great movie.

12:40 pm

faeriekae

I had the red dinner plate dahlias :(

12:41 pm

Kaetchen

I'm so spoiled - live in zone 9, so everything overwinters. I have 3 kinds of dahlias plus a few Japanese irises (bloom in summer).

12:41 pm

faeriekae

Stid - Iris is one of my all time favorits and Peonys..

12:41 pm

stidmama

Yes, for us the problem isn't the cold, but the damp. I put almost all of mine on top of our septic mound which (of course) is mostly sand so it drains well... I lift every few years to divide them.

12:42 pm

faeriekae

Kaetchen - I jealous - I'm in Michigan so tubes have to come up every fall or we lose them :(

12:42 pm

stidmama

I have a connection to irises too ... most flowers "call" to me actually... peonies I have never had luck with, though.

12:42 pm

marymary

I heart calla lilies- they grow like weeds here.

12:42 pm

Kaetchen

But faerie, the most gorgeous birds are in MI! Living in CA means no beautiful cardinals for me...

12:43 pm

faeriekae

Ohhhhh Calla Lilies are beautiful.

12:43 pm

stidmama

I killed the callas a friend gave me a few years back -- don't know what i did wrong :-( so afraid to try again

12:43 pm

Kaetchen

My callas seem happiest in super-moist soil - almost boggy. I put them in front (faces east) by the tap, so they're dripped on all the time.

12:44 pm

faeriekae

Kaetchen - we do have cardinals I have a nest in my arbor right now with babies in it and there is a robins nest not 10' away also with babies - go figure

12:44 pm

stidmama

Kaetchen: so cal? I LOVE the gardens around LA -- Descanso, the Arboretum, Huntington of course...

12:44 pm

marymary

S-mama-
That surprises me- you'd think the climate here and where you are would be quite similar.

12:44 pm

stidmama

that's probably what I did wrong -- they were under the eaves so didn't get water that winter....

12:44 pm

Kaetchen

Norcal, stidmama. Sacramento. But you've found the best things about LA! The museums and gardens are beautiful.

12:45 pm

faeriekae

I haven't even tried Calla Lillies here I just know they couldn't survive the cold.

12:45 pm

stidmama

actually, the gardens, museums and the library are the only things I like about LA except my grandmother's house...

12:45 pm

faeriekae

LOL Stid :)

12:45 pm

tndaisy1960

lol I go away for a few minutes and the site is besieged by P. Allen Smith!

12:45 pm

Kaetchen

Completely agree, stidmama. The rest of it is, well, unfortunate.

12:46 pm

stidmama

Sacramento is lovely, too though -- enjoyed Sutter's Fort last summer when we drove through.

12:46 pm

Egregious Jones

Nice! Napoleon's favorite animal

12:46 pm

Too many people! I avoid people -- they carry plague you know.... not like us friendly rats and dogs :-)

1:47 pm

FMitch

Nearly there bee, yes re the tile stats, the word stats show how many words there are by the number of eltters in them. Have a look at angelsongs link under firend of babble at the bottom of the page.
