Okay, I just tried Lickety's page and it still shows the last board. Even AFTER I refreshed it. (Oh. I left and am now back again, too)
1:13 am
Wyrd
46 words and im getting sweepy!
1:13 am
jillibus
don't think lickety's done it yet
1:14 am
Nef
so how do you know how many K words there are then?

helenkeller
i too have 9 k's
1:14 am
jillibus
I only have 4 k's
1:14 am
sprite
I have 9 too now.
Nef: when you are pro, you have a stats panel that shows how many more from each tile.
1:14 am
cehess
done for the night at 125 I think.. don't seem to be making anymore progress, so I'll come back in the morning. Good luck and happy babbling everyone.
1:15 am
helenkeller
nef - those who are 'pro' know because we get a grid that tells how many words originiate from each tile
1:15 am
wassup
i have 10, but i assure you they aren't words...most of them anyway
1:15 am
helenkeller
bye cehess
1:16 am
Golux13
i'm up to 11 K's and I agree, most of them ain't words
1:16 am

DUH!! I did pay up and AM pro! I forgot and was playing with the window small so I could look for words in a 2nd window.
1:17 am

1:18 am
kierlex
my babble sure is slow, are you all having trouble, too
1:18 am
wassup
well nef. if you're going to do that, at least give me something i can steal. kean should be a word. it's a band! or maybe it's keen
1:18 am
Nef
I've noticed that they allow a lot of foreign words and won't allow either slang or brand names sometimes
1:19 am
sprite
It is there, but it won't take, FMitch! "Was not found in the dictionary", it claims.
1:19 am
jillibus
no problem with speed here

1:20 am
sprite
lol kierflex!
1:21 am
wassup
yeah, i stole an orange cone from a construction site that i put in the street when my kids are playing outside. seems to slow traffic. :)
1:22 am
kierlex
well jeez, we have a police car parked in our yard 75 percent of the time (hubby is cop) and that doesn't slow em down
1:22 am
helenkeller
one of my neighbors sons, 21, drove his car into a tree at 2 am, died, & she went on a crusade to have speed bumps put on our block
1:22 am
sprite
12 Ks and I found two absolute NONwords all by myself :)
1:23 am
sprite
That's sad, helen :(
1:23 am
kierlex
i want to stand there and throw a 'Resusci Annie' CPR doll out in front of a few cars and see if that freaks them out enough
1:23 am
helenkeller
well, it's sad that's how she coped with her grief, the accident didn't happen here - i didn't sign her petition - it's generally no more a problem here than anywhere else
1:23 am
wassup
oh man helen. that's awful. unfortunately speed bumps probably wouldn't have stopped him.
1:23 am
kierlex
we live at the top of a steep hill and the part in front of our house is gravel so people fly up and do cookies in front of our house.
1:24 am
wassup
lol kierlex
1:24 am
helenkeller
exactly wass!
1:24 am
kierlex
that is sad, helen
1:24 am
helenkeller
eeeh, that sucks keir
1:24 am
wassup
he was 21 and at 2 am...hmmm. i'm just making an assumption that alcohol probably played a part?
1:25 am
helenkeller
she refused the autopsy - didn't want to know
1:25 am
kierlex
and its not just the college kids, the little old men are like speed freaks in their giant cards
1:25 am
kierlex
i mean cars
1:26 am
helenkeller
she also refused to have a wake for him, only a mass, the church was packed - young & popular - i always go to the cemetary afterward, but i didn't this time, wasy too many people
1:26 am
wassup
oh, well. i don't know what i'd be like if i lost a child. i'd probably go nuts and try to ban cars...
1:26 am
kierlex
hmm, odd that they didnt test his BAC anyway

the one that really gets me here I've mentioned before - up in the right corner is c**e, but it won't let you put an s on the end for a perfectly good and common word -- says it's not in the dictionary
1:29 am
kierlex
well it wouldn't make it any easier if he was found to be sober or not
1:30 am

1:42 am

it's about this trip to south america by french scientists in the 1500s and how they are travelling through all the amazon and various places to do these measurements to figure out if the world is round or what
1:42 am
wassup
wow, this is the lamest apple i've ever had.

1:47 am
Nef
sorry again. I'll stay out of chat now so I stop doing that
1:47 am

Hi Haz. We have had clouds and rain for the last week, and I gotta say - I like it! (due to we need the rain). I'm normally a summer person but I'm lapping up the cold and wet - sorta makes life cozy.
3:26 am
Haz1558
Jemma - you should be able to get lots of words from the square towards the right containing the letters sare - I've got 7 from them and there may be more.
3:27 am
FMitch
LOL Lickety, you would enjoy the UK then.
3:27 am
Jemma444
ok everyone, gotta go!buh-bye
3:27 am

sleeky- since it's Sunday,can you relax, knowing that you can babble until you get tired and then sleep as long as you need? or do you have things you have to do soon?
4:46 am
mattygroves
It'll probably hit 30 today (80 or more for the Americans in the audience)
4:46 am

Oh dear - is it still so yucky in New England? I sympathise, Eva. Looks like the football/soccer gods have intervened in the weather here in Germany, but last week I wasn't sure we were ever going to see summer!
4:51 am

My 15 year old daughter and her friend have had adventures in fake tan. Hah!

Atalante

5:02 am
mattygroves
It would, with all those N's - d'ya know which one (or what the second letter is?
5:03 am
JMann
the one 8 that I found starts with a NO (and it's the N in the middle of the grid, but it could also be the second one from the bottom in the second column - there is only one N in it)
5:04 am
rolin
ok..thats the a's done..ill bbl ppl..hve to do some school work
5:05 am
amandacath
dunno - i tend to ata's opinion. I'm guessing some wierd chemical that starts with k...

5:06 am
JMann

Alright, I'm willing to accept the unfortunate fact that goth and ents aren't accepted - but seratonin is in that grid and I demand that it be accepted!

KittyVane

Ahhh, you're right Eva - sometimes google is misleading. Too many people put up website with misspellings in them...

nothing but chilly rain here hannah, for the past month. I like your icon!

Ah but knock off the last letter Kitty
5:22 am
hannah lou
thanx its been relly hot all week and on tuseday we r goin to have a heat wave
5:23 am

It's going to get warmer hannah?!?! OMG it's 30 today as it is!!
5:23 am
KittyVane
ooh, thank you FMitch!
5:23 am
FMitch
Eva - your weather is it usual for this time of year?
5:23 am
Eva
have there been any puzzles without that bizarre greek temple?
5:24 am
Atalante
not many!
5:25 am
hannah lou
it relly hot and i dont wont a heat wave coz it will be even hotter
5:26 am
Eva
FMithc-this is not usual at all. We had a weirdly warm winter, a phenomenally beautiful April, which is usually the rainiest month (April showers bring May flowers) and then rain I think for 28 out of the last 31 days, so something like that. Record flooding in NY and several other places. This rainis probably a fluke, but the warming is not and is scary. Vermont is not usually known for being a tropical clime. May and June are usually sunny and mild at least half the time
5:27 am
JMann
what does that greek temple start with again. i remember it was in yesterday's as well
5:27 am
Eva
The winters here are long and fairly harsh, and what gets us through is the prospect of spring and especially early summer-so to go through winter and then have all this rain is definitely wearing on people
5:27 am
Eva
the greek temple starts with n
5:28 am
amandacath
the greek temple is an na4/4, jmann - remember it, it shows up repeatedly.
5:28 am
Eva
sprry for all the complaining. It's not like we have killer monsoons are quakes or anything. Just grizzle
5:28 am
FMitch
very topsy turvey Eva, hence your cry for a vacation earlier!
5:28 am
JMann
thanks eva and amanda
5:36 am
amandacath
Bah! List-time for me. I want to go enjoy the sunshine and I just can't leave before I've finished the grid!
5:36 am
jo_jo
any clues for the last an5/10?
5:37 am
JMann
which A and which N are you talking about?
5:39 am
pinecone05
think of the veggie with layers and change the first letter to an a...that is an an 5/10
5:39 am
jo_jo
the last 'an' on lickteys list
5:41 am
jo_jo
i have that one pine
5:43 am
amandacath
Just found it jo-jo. It's latin plural for the one 4/4 before it
5:43 am
KittyVane
Jo_jo, the an5 you're looking for means "A name given to either of the projecting ends of Saturn's ring."
5:45 am
pinecone05
thanks kitty vane ....I got it
5:46 am
KittyVane
You're welcome Pine
5:47 am

hurshy, your faith is touching. But in addition to being well behind shutterbug, I also have kids who may or may not be napping and a husband who is currently trying to get me to play World of Warcraft with him (for the first time ever), so I don't think I'll be searching very steadily this afternoon.
1:33 pm

1:36 pm
Vicuna
And has your sister ever punched her (or your) husband in the face, hurshy?
1:37 pm

Hmmm... Maybe if you just punched her she would be convinced to play!
1:38 pm

Sudokuaddict, there are two elements to the chat. One is to give each other clues and tips to help each other find words. the other is just to chat and cannot possibly be explained.
1:46 pm
hurshy
i think sudokuaddict meant either a) what's something like no6/27 mean or b) what on earth is hurshy going on about?
1:46 pm

No6/27 means a six letter word that is worth 27 points.
1:47 pm
Vicuna
Good, becuase THAT we can explain. no are the first two letters of a word six letters long, adding up to a total of 27 points.
1:47 pm

no = first 2 letters of word, 6 = no. of letters, 27 - points value. It's all in the Help file

hurshy i could use some help with W i have 13 of the 16
2:24 pm
gwenski
Sure -- I just got started, so I'll take any you want to give! By the way, I thought 'fresca' was some sort of large mural, but the dictionary didn't like it. Am I confusing it with another common word?
2:24 pm
shutterbug
I didnt know why hurshy.
2:24 pm
bookgrrl
gwenski--that's fresco.
2:24 pm
gwenski
Ahh. Thanks.
2:24 pm
maka
gwen: you're thinking of a fresco, i think - mural painted on wet plaster.
2:25 pm
hurshy
people do not understand. you see hurshy is not using the list. therefore if someone says "wo6/42?" or something then i can find it for them, whilst simultaneously getting the word myself
2:25 pm
Uncagain
I think u could paint a fresco with a fresca
2:25 pm
hurshy
fresca is a brand of soda
2:25 pm

fresca is italian for "fresh", i think.

Now that's an interesting idea, uncagain!
2:26 pm

hetty - this grid is difficult because of that. Usually you can go in one direction and find a load of words, but on this grid you have to twist unaturally.
4:47 pm
Uneaixoise
there are 13 to's
4:47 pm
LeslieAnn
dachef, do you have the middle of your body with a different vowel on the end?
