A8/60, A8/65, another Q8/60, and a T8/60. That should be all the 8"s. A7/36, C7?36 I7/40, ans I7/28 should be the rest of the 7's.

6:20 am

boober

carolecs: Q7/44 is a group of four singers or four instruments

6:25 am

boober

Stats are wrong . Made a mistake adding.Please disregard. Will try to fix. f not hopefully someone can. Sorry!!!

boober....the qu and the u being next to each other usually cause problems for the solvers out there...check for words with QU in them because the solver usually doesn't assume that there is already a U with the Q...you following me on that?

6:28 am

boober

Thanks, i had at least one "Q" too many. i will be more careful next time. Sorry again.

6:29 am

bigbirdboss

Q 7/44 = a group of four

8:07 am

ROZY

Carolecs,I hope you have a wonderful holiday! I'm taking a week off, too, but will be at home as my son is coming to stay for a bit.

9:20 am

carolecs

Thank you and I hope you week with your son is great too. See you all soon.x

EvaNadine

heh, im also taking next week off and i wont be around to babble...
ill be around for the rest of today though!

1:07 pm

boober

I have 202 words instead of the 204 I posted earlier. I have 16 "Q's" and 46 "T's". That would mean there are 5-65 and 4-87. Hopefully I have it right now. Apparently I need to learn how to add better. Again I apologize to everyone. If I am still wrong I promise to never do the stats again.

1:28 pm

DarleenMB

boober, don't worry about it! I"m just grateful you're doing them (close works for me as I NEVER get more than half anyway)... gives me something to shoot for :-)

1:29 pm

EvaNadine

boober -- it probably wasnt your addition. todays puzzle has a "Qu" next to a "U" which always throws off the solvers...

2:42 pm

tedybeth

Thanks to boober and to anyone who posts the stats -- they really help and I appreciate what you do!!!

7:48 pm

Uneaixoise

8:03 pm

tedybeth

I'm here, too --- and haven't had too much time today to babble -- so may need lots of clues!!

8:03 pm

periwinkle

Found an i/8/50. It is a compound word. Hard to find cause it winds around. But it is a common word.Can't really give a clue without giving away part of the word.

8:52 pm

roberts1

The other i8 means the act of doing things following what has already been done. A different definition of the first i8 is what we all do on the message board.
A8/60 : an etching made by a process that makes it resemble a water color
I don't know the other A8.
Yes, there are 2 Q8/60's.

9:01 pm

fit1

roberts, thanks for that alternate i8 clue about what we do on this message bd. I got it immediately. :)

9:14 pm

roberts1

Yaay, we have successfully I8/50ed today, fit! :) Still a lot to go for me.

9:18 pm

fit1

yessir, I just love i8 50ing. Now if I can figure out how to a860 (I have the a865), I will be a happy camper

9:24 pm

roberts1

fit, I don't know if it would be considered a compound word but it does split into two four letter words.
Not the bad kind! The second could almost describe the first.

9:37 pm

Uneaixoise

could i have a hint on the a8/65?

9:39 pm

fit1

hmmm roberts, I shall consider that. The other a8/65 is an ornament of archeological interest, or something fashioned by human hand.

9:42 pm

Uneaixoise

thanks, fit1!
