Scrabbler

I just noticed the Qu tile.

7:57 am

zoozzoom

How are you today? Did your sister have a good time with you?

7:58 am

Scrabbler

We had 4 rigorous snowshoe hikes. And many Scrabble games. She won 5-3 in our games.

7:59 am

Scrabbler

You live on the Isle of Wight, right?

7:59 am

zoozzoom

Sounds like you had fun then!

7:59 am

zoozzoom

I do, Scrabs.

8:00 am

Scrabbler

It was in a crossword clue I did, so I thought of you.

8:01 am

zoozzoom

What was the clue..Somewhere in the UK where it is cold and wet most of the year round lol

8:02 am

Scrabbler

A crossword puzzle, and the clue was about the Channel Islands.

8:04 am

zoozzoom

Must admit I am not very good at crosswords. I find the clues often too cryptic for me.

8:08 am

Scrabbler

I like the New York Times crossword puzzle BECAUSE the clues are cryptic and make me think. The clues have multiple meanings. Some of the puzzles are quite tricky and I work on them for days.

8:09 am

zoozzoom

Good for you, Scrabs.keeps the brain active!

8:11 am

phaeton

hello...may I have stats for the center R pls?

Acrostic puzzles are tough.

8:22 am

Scrabbler

Patrick Berry puzzles are tough and tricky. He has published at least one puzzle book which I have.

8:22 am

phaeton

I can still find those at the drug stores. There used to be a magazine that came out monthly called "Games". Loved that zine...it had a lot of different puzzles.

redgirl1973

hi all! long-time lurker, just curious...what does "nbt/nbs" mean? Can't puzzle it out in my head :)

11:04 am

Douglas

nbt is "no blank tiles," which means "I have at least one word from each of the tiles starting at least one word"

11:04 am

therealblah

hi redgirl!

11:05 am

Douglas

Many Babblers consider reaching nbt to be a significant milestone on the way to completing the grid.

11:06 am

therealblah

and "nbs" means "no blank stats," along the same logic

11:06 am

Douglas

nbs is "no blank stats," which means "I have at least one word for each of the word lengths for this grid."

11:06 am

redgirl1973

thank you Douglas! I use that as a milestone myself :) also getting halfway is my goal each day

11:07 am

redgirl1973

I'm not as successful at "nbs", I have trouble with the longest words.
