justafreep

it's half vowels

1:00 am

Gillie

If you mean the tr7, I've got it now - it's architectural

justafreep

my mistake on reading the chat

Scrabbler

Hi. Looking.

5:47 am

ItalianGreyhound

that word sounds normal, but looks odd to me

5:48 am

ItalianGreyhound

if that makes sense

5:52 am

Scrabbler

I use that word often, meaning a situation or circumstances. "Worst/best sc8."

5:55 am

6:37 am

Kiani

morning all

6:37 am

aslindy

hi kiani

6:38 am

Kiani

yo

6:49 am

Kiani

the more I play this, the more I realize my vocab is made up of made-up words

6:50 am

aslindy

same

6:54 am

hurshy

oof, i am not very awake this morning

6:54 am

hurshy

idk why, i didn't go to bed late or anything

6:54 am

hurshy

for the record: all words are made-up words. someone made them up at some point. :)

6:54 am

Kiani

well, yeah :P

6:55 am

Kiani

a lot of foreign words in my active vocab, and a lot of gaming-related words or parts of words

6:55 am

sukee

I keep trying mosh but it's never there :)

6:56 am

Kiani

for instance: gatos. not accepted, but I feel I must oppose any game that does not allow cats of any language :D

6:57 am

sukee

while merde is :)

7:00 am

aslindy

took way too long to find that top left E word

7:07 am

aslindy

how is maxed not a word?

7:08 am

sukee

hmm

7:10 am

hurshy

on the one hand, yay for gatos. on the other hand, i don't know the word for cats in most other languages, so if they were all accepted, we'd have a lot more words to find that we don't know, lol

7:10 am

Kiani

I'm willing to learn

7:12 am

hurshy

:D

7:12 am

hurshy

top row grey!

7:31 am

aslindy

oh yay, it's snowing!

7:31 am

hurshy

nice :)

7:32 am

aslindy

I mean, if it's going to be cold and dreary, it might as well snow!

7:37 am

aslindy

clue for 6,21 please?

7:37 am

aslindy

I mean, tr6,21

7:37 am

aslindy

ugh, I cannot brain today

7:37 am

hurshy

i'm hypnotized, i'm in a tr6

7:38 am

aslindy

thank you hurshy

7:43 am

MollyL

And that contains a word within a word

7:44 am

aslindy

ah, yes it does

7:45 am

aslindy

I'm curious - how many of you have Babble Expert?

7:45 am

hurshy

not i, said the little red hen

7:46 am

origami

I use it sometimes.

7:46 am

saanichcat

nor I

8:15 am

MollyL

I don't use Expert

8:15 am

rururocks

I don't use expert

8:17 am

aebmusica

Not I

8:17 am

Shirlockc

what is babble expert?

8:20 am

hurshy

it's a supplemental program you can download, created by a player, LicketySplit, that you can put your words into and it puts them into a list. so it gives you a bit more info because if there are like, three tr4/4 words in a row, it puts it into the right spot in alphabetical order, and then you know if you're missing the first one or the second one or the third one

8:21 am

Shirlockc

that's what i do with listing

8:21 am

hurshy

you can also use the printable list to just see what the words are, but in that case you do not know which of the three you are missing if there are a bunch the same in a row

8:21 am

Shirlockc

as in lickety's list

8:22 am

hurshy

yes

8:23 am

saanichcat

great explanation hurshy

8:23 am

Shirlockc

so yes, guilty, i do list, not all the time but then i don't finish the grid all the time

8:23 am

MollyL

You can add your words to Lickety's list to see what order they are in and what you need.

8:24 am

hurshy

woohoo, i have found 90% of the words

8:24 am

MollyL

Expert is a little different in that it combines the list with the grid so your word goes in your word list and Lickety's list at the same time.

8:26 am

mattygroves

Expert doesn't work on a Mac, though, sadly

8:28 am

saanichcat

gosh matty that is exactly what i wrote, you beat me to it

8:29 am

bichon

Reason why I don't have a Mac

8:31 am

dcseain

huh. iâ€™ve never started with an 8 before. good morning/evening.

8:32 am

8:38 am

saanichcat

sorry for typos; not used to tiny typing.

8:39 am

hokie carla

8:40 am

hokie carla

8:41 am

rururocks

8:50 am

MollyL

Are you visiting somewhere Seain? Because there is no snow forecast for the DC area.

8:51 am

dcseain

exactly why weâ€™re on track for latest accumiating snow, possibly on track to have later snow than in 1973, which happened then on 23 Feb.

8:51 am

mael

it's been a ridiculous winter for the east coast. We're so far below average here in Boston... it's starting to look like 2015, if anyone remembers our snowpocalypse

8:51 am

9:20 am

hokie carla

they don't have to be plants, just ghosts hanging out in one

9:20 am

MollyL

The word atria conjures plants for me

9:48 am

saanichcat

a healthline ought to do better than that: you should at least know how long a wait. some places will do call-backs in the right order too, so you are not getting earbruises

but it could be of the 5/6 pairs

4:02 pm

you might have a different missing one to me :)
