hi all, back for my last 8
3:23 am
dizgrannie

FWs...last word se 8..to do with stamps.
5:52 am
MollyL

Latin words for flowers stump me every time. I don't know how people memorize them all.
6:04 am
BzznBea

Tooty is too a word!
6:05 am
doseffing

... tutti
6:06 am
BzznBea

I was thinking of what I called my babies when they had a little gas...
6:07 am
doseffing

...ah yes
6:15 am
MollyL

I once was friends with someone who did daycare. When one of her kids farted, she said he "let a bumble bee".
: D
6:15 am
BzznBea

How cute.
6:16 am
MollyL

She was from Big Stone Gap, Virginia. She had some back country sayings for a lot of things. I still say them and she is long passed.
6:26 am
MollyL

Well, have all the 8/9/10/11 so they must not be that hard. : D
6:27 am
BzznBea

I'm almost there.
6:27 am
BzznBea

Was your latin flower an 8?
6:34 am
MollyL

Yes, and we have had it several times. I just can't keep most Latin committed to memory. Some words, some phrases, but that's it.
6:35 am
MollyL

My oldest was an honors Latin student in high school. But he didn't get that from me. : D
7:28 am
mattygroves

What does the latin flower start with, please?
7:29 am
MollyL

al
7:31 am
mattygroves

Mmm...at a loss with no M in the puzzle
7:31 am
periwinkle

good morning only have 2 of the 7's nothing bigger
7:32 am
MollyL

It's Latin for Rose of Sharon
7:38 am
BzznBea

I thought it was the mallow plant?
7:39 am
BzznBea

Nevermind...
7:40 am
MollyL

The Master Gardener needs more coffee
: D
7:41 am
MollyL

But hey, I learned what a mallow plant is
7:42 am
BzznBea

Same genus, just different species.
7:44 am
MollyL

This is where I get all tangled up with Latin
7:44 am
MLFAN17

hello
7:46 am
MollyL

To5/14? Seriously? What is that? A combination plaything and Crayola?
7:47 am
MollyL

Of course, it's another gardening term : D
7:50 am

does the no10 begin with the prefix for not?

Use morewords to find it.
8:14 am
hokie carla

wow, it's too early for me to even notice there's a 10 and 11
8:14 am
BzznBea

Morning, Carla.
8:16 am
BzznBea

You know all these players that have to have NBT and NBS right off the bat...Whether they have to beg, borrow or steal...
8:18 am
MLFAN17

hokie I didn't even notice at first either
8:20 am
Flask1

Hi all....any clues please for the no10/11?
8:20 am
MLFAN17

flask it starts with the prefix for not
8:21 am
MLFAN17

but that's all I know
8:21 am
BzznBea

Some one who watches the Olympics.
8:21 am
Flask1

thanks MLF...
8:22 am
MLFAN17

yw flask
8:24 am
MLFAN17

that is a spectator isn't it?
8:26 am
hokie carla

sorry, I hid so I could look for words, morning!
8:26 am
MLFAN17

morning hokie:)
8:27 am
BzznBea

I know, Carla. That's why I am reluctant to clue the big ones any more. I know a lot of accomplished players like to find thme on their own.
8:29 am
hokie carla

90% of the time I need help on big ones but sometimes they're easy and I wish I'd seen them first.
8:30 am
MLFAN17

I agree hokie
8:30 am
BzznBea

I also think about those in other US time zones that don"t have a chance because they are all clued .
8:31 am
BzznBea

I guess they don't have to look at the chat. But why play the game if you have to have half of the words clued.
8:32 am
hokie carla

I do like chatting with y'all
8:32 am
BzznBea

I do too. Which is what the original intent fo the chat was, i think.
8:35 am
hokie carla

and I don't mind the clues, I just got here too late this morning ;)
8:37 am
Flask1

Wow! Its a bit rich criticizing people for asking for clues.....while the same critics are just as bloody guilty....AND you lot should also remember that it is not only Yanks that play this game...but we come from all over the world....and different time zones!!
8:37 am
hokie carla

ok, so I just had this beyonce song stuck in my head that is in the grid but I didn't have the word yet
8:37 am
jaxx7

Calm down dear
8:38 am
Flask1

Sorry jaxx7....it had to be said!
8:38 am
hokie carla

sorry, I wasn't criticizing you as much as saying I didn't want to read the chat yet
8:39 am
Flask1

Carla....it wasn't aimed at you...you weren't having the conversation
8:40 am
BzznBea

I'm sorry, Flask. I hardly ever ask for clues. Maybe when Im down to my last two or three...
8:41 am
hokie carla

not sure I've ever seen bea ask for a clue
8:41 am
hokie carla

and I just found an 8/9!
8:44 am
Flask1

I stopped babbling over a year..because of some of the regulars attitudes....it would appear nothing has changed! And thats a shame, because a lot of people get a lot of fun here....but its the same few that are allowed to air their arrogance and bullish behaviour!
8:44 am
rururocks

who's arrogance?
8:45 am
Flask1

Sorry ru....am spouting no names...they know who they are!!
8:46 am
BzznBea

Me apparently, ru.
8:48 am
rururocks

i can see both sides of it really. It does get to be too much the constant clue fest in the chat...I like to wait until i can't find something for sure before I ask for a clue

bea didn't say anything that hasn't been said, nbt/nbs is a made up construct, you don't get any extra points or anything here, so it's a nice goal to strive to but does it mean anything if you are asking for words just to get to that? everyone likes to play their own way. that's fine, but doesn't mean everyone else understands it.
8:51 am
hokie carla

and like ru said, I like to wait for last resort, and sometimes even then I'll just look words up. The other day I looked up like my last 10.
8:52 am
MollyL

I am one of those people who like to find words on my own. So if there is a lot of cluing going on, I turn off the chat. On the occasional times that I'm up at the flip, I turn off the chat. I don't understand all the clue blurting that goes on at flip time. A while back, it used to be "wait an hour before you give or ask for clues".
8:52 am
MLFAN17

flask I agree with what you said about criticizing people
8:52 am
Flask1

I do the same ru.....I've seen me sitting for half an trying to get a word before asking....I am very competitive...
8:53 am
MLFAN17

id o the same flask though if it is a word I need to finish a letter maybe I wont wait "too long":)
8:53 am
Flask1

Sadly it does happen MLF!
8:53 am
MLFAN17

yes it does
8:53 am
hokie carla

that's funny, molly. I was just going to say I guess I should play at the flip every night since those people mean business! they call the big words but rarely do I see other clues or any kind of chatting.
8:53 am
BzznBea

MLF, you start asking for clues as soon as you open the game.
8:54 am
MLFAN17

sometimes i strive for at least nbt that's not a crime
8:55 am
BzznBea

No it's not a crime. But what good does it do you?

8:56 am
MollyL

Well, it's the calling the big ones that I don't care for. I think they are the challenging part of the game and I would like a chance to find them without people blurting them out two seconds after the game starts. So it's a good feature that you can turn off the chat.
8:56 am
MLFAN17

in some cases just because you get a clue doesn't mean you get the word right away ultimately its the person who is trying to figure a word/words out
8:56 am
hokie carla

I do like to play "bea guesses my missing words"
8:56 am

I wouldn't like to play at the flip....
8:59 am
MollyL

I don't have a problem with people asking for the occasional clue. But there are some who ask for way too many. If that is going on, I turn off the chat. And Flask, I don't think any of this conversation was directed at you. I don't think you are a player who constantly asks for clues.
8:59 am
MLFAN17

it was fun

thanks Molly!

I do ask for clues, sometimes...and sometimes I ask for stats, and sometimes I don't at all - it depends on my mood. And yeah, privately I sometimes roll my eyes at folk who need many, many clues or where sometimes it's tempting to just say "THE WORD IS THIS!"...but I don't, because it's not fair. Everyone plays differently. Some folk feel mortified if they resort to morewords, others are happy to use it, seeing it as another tool for solving (I'm somewhere in between). So whilst I do occasionally roll my eyes, I do not allow myself to 'feel superior' (or I try not to) or to snap at the folk who need many clues. I've absolutely no doubt I annoy people sometimes, so who am I to judge! Peace :)

I think what really changed for me was when I realised I don't HAVE to finish. I actually stopped playing for a while because it was becoming a chore - if I started I had to finish. Now...I don't. If I finish, great, if not, that's cool too

A long time ago, back in the early days of email, I kept getting spam (everyone did). One item of spam invited me to view some lovely MILFs. Well, I didn't have a clue what that was, so I looked it up. In addition to the...er...rude meaning, it turned out it was also an acronym for a militant islamic indonesian group/front. I can imagine their surprise when they tried googling their own name

usually if I get the poker bet I get the volcano
9:15 am
mattygroves

Is the 10 / 11 a word I'm likely to run into in day to day life? (Not asking for a clue!)
9:16 am
MollyL

Where there is the wager, there is the volcano. Where there is saliva, there is gratuities. Where there is the word on a red traffic sign, there is what goes with pans.

9:17 am

or I explain that I am slow and need more clues (and yes, I say I'm slow pretty much every day)
9:17 am

But when you are giving the clue you're usually thinking - bah, that's no good, they'll never get that, why can't I think of something better?

yes, I am really happy when someone actually gets my clue
9:18 am

Many of the clues will lead you to the word if you do a Google search on "crossword clue" and then add the clue given.

I suspect everyone can get annoyed/frustrated or whatever sometimes - either because they don't get a clue, or because someone asked for a clue, or because they're just having a really awful day. Also, we have no tone of voice here - so if someone says (not that anyone has - I'm making this up) - Really? You need a clue for that? - that could be tongue in cheek - perhaps should have an LOL or something after it or...not. It can be so hard to tell.

11:22 am
hurshy

yeah i saw someone say thanks for ha8/9 but then i didn't see an actual clue before that
11:22 am
hokie carla

probably. they used to just be one shirt a day, then they started adding all these other categories and I think amazon bought it.
11:22 am
mattygroves

11:41 am
mattygroves

It's latin
11:43 am
hurshy

thank you!
11:43 am
hurshy

11:44 am

11:44 am
cybernan

11:45 am
hokie carla

well now I know my missing a's from there
11:45 am
hokie carla

11:45 am
hokie carla

11:46 am

11:48 am
hurshy

11:48 am
hurshy

11:48 am
Cosmo Kramer

it's a palindrome
11:48 am
JaxH66

Thanks
11:49 am
hurshy

yes, it was the name of one of TinyKittens' palindrome kittens :D
11:50 am
MollyL

For those who don't know, palindrome is a word spelled the same forwards and backwards.
11:50 am
hurshy

or a number that is the same b & f
11:51 am
MollyL

4004
11:51 am
hurshy

yes
11:51 am
cybernan

need help with a puzzle I'm working on -- what is the source of "avatar" and "swami" -- think it is a disney thing
11:52 am
hurshy

and if a number isn't a palindrome, if you reverse it, and then add the two numbers together, and you repeat the process as needed, you will always eventually reach a palindrome!
11:52 am
MollyL

I think they are Indian words Nan
11:52 am
hokie carla

avatar is a movie, disney has an avatar land now at animal kingdom
11:52 am
hurshy

i would think those were words from hindi, yeah
11:53 am
hokie carla

not sure how swami would relate to avatar in that sense
11:53 am
MollyL

I'm sorry Hursh, that is WAY too math nerd for me.
11:53 am
cybernan

was there a movie that had avatars and swamis?
11:53 am
hokie carla

aladdin maybe for the swami
11:53 am
hokie carla

indiana jones?
11:54 am
hurshy

like, 57 isn't a palindrome. reverse it to 75, and add. that makes 132. sill not a palindrome. reverse THAT and add, 132 +231 = 363. palindrome!
11:54 am
cybernan

ty - gives me some ideas
11:55 am
hokie carla

is it a crossword, nan? maybe if you tell me the exact clue
11:55 am
hurshy

groan... was missing an ea6, and it couldn't have been ea6
11:56 am
cybernan

that was the clue -- it is a spiral puzzle that is a palindrome (half the clues are from the outside in and the other half from the inside out)
11:57 am
hurshy

i do not recall any movie having both
11:57 am
cybernan

which makes me think that hindi is more on the right track -- need a 6 letter word
11:58 am
cybernan

don't know why onesie isn't a word -- they've been around since the 60's
12:00 pm
hokie carla

hmm, not aladdin then
12:00 pm
cybernan

found the dock - my last j - don't know why it took so long
12:05 pm
hokie carla

so far my missing 4's are babblets
12:07 pm

12:09 pm
hokie carla

struggling thinking with the list
12:12 pm
hokie carla

2 of my missing are 6/18s, how hard is that?
12:12 pm
hurshy

yeah i can't get this one se5/10, how dumb is that
12:13 pm
hokie carla

there are 3 se5/10 - babblets, latin pl etc
12:13 pm
hurshy

no, i was just not lining up my words right with the list
12:13 pm
hurshy

which is even dumber
12:14 pm
hokie carla

at6/18 and re6/18 are my dumb ones
12:15 pm
hokie carla

12:15 pm

12:16 pm

12:17 pm
hokie carla

12:19 pm
cybernan

yes - I know there is a babblet like that, but not coming up with it
12:19 pm
mattygroves

RE avatar and swami - I'd guess it's a language clue - i.e. both words originate from the Sanskrit
12:19 pm
hurshy

you just repeat the same three letters again, cnan
12:19 pm
hokie carla

oh, the at is a spear thrower
12:21 pm
