7:49 am

MollyL

I'm waiting for the word geniuses to get the ma8 in a matter of seconds.

7:51 am

MollyL

The pr8 is another off the wall word

7:57 am

hokie carla

I do have one 8 but don't remember what it was, even though I just started playing less than an hour ago.

7:58 am

hokie carla

oh, it's ST

8:02 am

BzznBea

I thought the ma8 would be an extention of the 6, but alas, not the case.

8:03 am

hokie carla

I still need 12 M's, so could be related to anything

8:03 am

hokie carla

I do have an ma6 and ma7 though

8:27 am

8:35 am

hokie carla

HOET

8:38 am

hurshy

hmm, i've got a few ma6 but none of them seem to have a 7 with them

8:38 am

hokie carla

8:38 am

hokie carla

8:44 am

hurshy

phantom: meander

8:44 am

hokie carla

similar to weird, not similar to each other (I didn't want to misquote her)

8:45 am

MollyL

*Waits for Hurshy to find PR and MA in seconds

8:45 am

hokie carla

yes, I am surprised she hasn't piped in yet

8:45 am

hurshy

i don't find weird words fast!

8:46 am

BzznBea

I found the ma8, but had to use Morewords.

8:46 am

hokie carla

yes you do!

8:47 am

hurshy

not usually

8:47 am

BzznBea

The m only has two cons.

8:47 am

hurshy

:O

8:48 am

hurshy

counting the m???

8:48 am

BzznBea

yes

8:48 am

MollyL

My ma8 has three consonants

8:48 am

hurshy

3 sounds more plausible

8:49 am

BzznBea

opps, yes sorry. Three cons

8:49 am

MollyL

Opps, that famous internet typo. That and teh

8:50 am

hurshy

ok, yeah, morewords DEFINITELY necessary for that one!

8:50 am

hurshy

aHA i got the pr8! i thought it would be two words but i tried it anyway!

8:50 am

hokie carla

there are 583 ma8 words, obviously you can narrow down by the 3rd letter, but that's still a buttload

8:51 am

MollyL

That was pretty quick for a weird word

8:51 am

hokie carla

found it. never would have without the lookup site.

8:52 am

hokie carla

and the mostly vowels clue

8:52 am

hurshy

well i've actually looked into buying one (pr8) so it isn't as weird to me as it might be to most people

8:53 am

BzznBea

What would you do with it?

8:54 am

hokie carla

looked that one up too. very weird.

8:54 am

hokie carla

I guess she would pray on it

8:55 am

hurshy

yes

8:56 am

BzznBea

We had to put our Emma down last week. It is so quiet without her.

8:57 am

hokie carla
