Shortseer, thanks again!

1:24 am

shortseer

oops
where's my willpower gone?

1:25 am

sprite

*LOL!*
I really sympatize with that!

1:40 am

sprite

What is wrong with topact?

1:43 am

sprite

g7/36

1:44 am

Atalante

1:46 am

boatierra

What's wrong with 'regrip'?

1:48 am

Get a regrip on that topact of yours!
Quite understandable sentence, isn't it?

1:48 am

Atalante

d7/52

1:48 am

shortseer

*sighs despondently*
why doesn't babble recognise that the plural of tornado is tornadi?
;)

1:49 am

boatierra

"At 01:48 am sprite said...

Get a regrip on that topact of yours!"

Ohmig-d! That's awesome :)

1:50 am

sprite

If the babble gods let us decide which words were valid, all grids would be 400+.

1:51 am

Atalante

and what is wrong with pitot?

1:52 am

boatierra

No doubt. I wish it would take 'retop' and 'dcup.' Just 'cause.

1:54 am

sprite

*roflol!*

1:58 am

boatierra

Ahhh, it won't take 'dino.'

2:00 am

boatierra

Ah!! But it did accept an alternate word for 'money.' Muy interesante..

2:03 am

boatierra

Babble is Grrrrr...ate!!

2:04 am

sprite

Do you mean the 6/21? Or is there another one?

2:05 am

sprite

Hate it that I cannot make cupido!

2:05 am

boatierra

Si, Sprite.

2:08 am

boatierra

Got a P5-14/6-24/6-24 combo.

2:13 am

Atalante

07/40

2:14 am

boatierra

Also a R4-4/6-21/6-18 combo.

2:17 am

sprite

That last combo also has a 7/28.

2:21 am

boatierra

I'm talking about using the R in in the upper right hand corner. Are you sprite?

2:22 am

sprite

Yep. Give your 6/18 another vowel and you are there.

2:25 am

sprite

Atalante's O7 makes a combo with 2 6s (24 and 27).

2:27 am

boatierra

Had no idea. Thanks for the clue. So for the R combos I have: R4-4/6-21/6-18/7-28 and a R4-4/5-10/6-21/7-28.

2:29 am

boatierra

Oo-oo. Got a P4-6/6-27/7-36 combo.

2:30 am

boatierra

65 for 763. Must go home and go to bed. G'nite all :)

2:31 am

Atalante

Trying to puzzle my way through working out which of your R combos is which, but both have a 6/18

2:34 am

sprite

The first combo starts with something that goes deep.
The other with 'poke around'.

2:38 am

sprite

mulhermujer's combo of 02.08 am has a 7/36 too.

2:41 am

sprite

Ah, Renoir... such a nice painter. But no word.

2:43 am

Atalante

ahhhhhh ok - in that case there's another R4-4/6-21/6-18 combo :)

2:46 am

sprite

the havocky one you mean? Thanks, I missed one of those 6s.

2:47 am

Atalante

too many R combos for this early in the morning - head hurts LOL

2:48 am

sprite

Can't believe I am only halfway - found so many words already! ;)

2:57 am

Atalante

decapitate really should be in somewhere

The babble gods use windows?? ;-)
You were close, though, to a d7/52!

3:45 am

shortseer

G8 45
or has this already been mentioned?

3:47 am

sprite

Nope, the only 8 so far was a D. Thanks, shortseer.

3:57 am

sprite

G8/60 as well.

4:26 am

metags

shouldn't "a priori" be OK?

4:28 am

sprite

You have my vote! :D

5:17 am

sprite

e7/32

5:18 am

sprite

and g7/40

5:39 am

sprite

Okay, done at 203 words / 4.96 / 2775 points. Had a hard time finding the last N5 and still don't know what it means. Comes close to the 2nd At4/6 though.

biggies in list order:
8: D45, G60, G45

7: C44, D52, E44, E32,
G40, G40, G36, O40,
P36, P36, R40, R28, R36, R28,
T28.

Quite a number of the biggies end in the upper left corner.
