what is nbt, nbs?

12:31 am

Rainiqui

di 7

12:32 am

Rainiqui

no blank tiles, no blank squares

12:33 am

Babbler

Thanks. :) just wondered

12:33 am

Rainiqui

np

12:35 am

Gillie

Actually, I believe nbs stands for "no blank stats"

12:35 am

Gillie

(meaning word stats)

12:36 am

Rainiqui

You're right Gillie, thanks for that

12:36 am

Babbler

what's a blank word stat? there's an O that's grey

12:37 am

Babbler

oh the word stats on the right. but the higher numbers are grey

12:37 am

Gillie

The Word Stats under the list - it means having at least one word of every length

12:40 am

Rainiqui

0/0 means there aren't any of that length, 10, 11, 12, 13

12:40 am

Babbler

yes, so doesn't that make them blank? Sorry :)

12:43 am

Rainiqui

no blank stats means that each of the known numbers, 4, 5, 6, 7,and 9 have at least one entry that you've found

12:43 am

Rainiqui

and 8

12:44 am

Babbler

so it's your own progress

12:45 am

Rainiqui

yes
