It took me far too long to figure out how to make the S10/84 after making the S9/66. :)

To GeoDave - the things like R7/36 mean that someone has found a word beginning with R which is 7 letters long and worth 36 points. Hope that helps.

i'm still having trouble with them
3:43 pm

I usually highlight the stats with my mouse and then copy and paste them into word and print them out. That way I can make ticks next to each letter to easily see how close I'm getting. Sadly, today I'm far from close! :)
3:45 pm
mfpb221
Yes, astronomy. I have no idea. I have a prefix used in astronomy starting with p, but that's only 4 letters.
3:45 pm
Karen
I can't believe that t8/60 is a real word. Sounds like something silly you'd make up in conversation. Hope that helps.
3:46 pm

thats a good idea Troy...I like to refer to them also, must try that...
3:46 pm

thanks, troy... good idea!

Hey, mfpb.... I think I know the word you're hinting at (p astronomy), but I can't figure out how to spell it!! All those childhood hours wasted on spelling when we could have been at recess....;-)
4:09 pm

anyone have a hint for o?
4:10 pm
Troy
Finally got the P8 that doesn't have to do with astronomy. Can't believe it was staring me right in the face.
4:16 pm
Troy
I finally figured out the astromical P8 (yippee!). Has to do with a celestial body coming closest in its orbit to the body around which it orbits.
4:20 pm

O4 -- plural of a Latin word meaning bone.

6:20 pm
tedybeth
Jenni -- and ay other 'newbies'. The grids are posted from Midnight to midnight Central time [USA]. At midnight a new puzzle is posted. Any time after that you can click on 'yesterday's puzzle' link above where the words list. Then that brings up the last puzzle plus the listing of everyone who played. The ones at the top are the ones who either finished or had the most point value. If you click on a name, a window opens which shows their entire word list.
Also, you can click on the 'Archives' link at the top of the page to go back for months.
We really don't compete against each other --- just against our selves. Most everyone who becomes addicted has to use tools to complete a grid - like on-line dictionaries, google searches, or word list like a2zwordfinder, or a Worddox list. After a while you begin to remember some of the more common letter combinations that are obscure words!! Have fun!
6:21 pm
tedybeth
Also, we share clues, sometimes the beginning 2 letters of a word .... but never the word itself. At least, not on purpose LOL
6:23 pm
wilson27fan
Welcome newcomers,as you have been told this really is addictive but VERY fun.
I to am glad i came in late and missed the mess.Posting the words takes the fun out of the game for everyone.
6:31 pm
test97
Where do the word stats come from?
6:35 pm
tedybeth
Wilson: can you answer that about the stats?
All I know is that there are some 'solvers' online. And some people have other family members use them, count the words, etc., The solvers must obviously show the words themselves, so it's more difficult to try to cover them, do the counts, and not see what you don't want to see.
6:36 pm
tedybeth
Having stats posted is a real bonus. Otherwise you really are working in the dark - not knowing if you have more to find or not!!! :-)
6:43 pm
wilson27fan
tedy Im sorry no I can't answer that because my hubby does them and I have never asked him how because i don't want to see the words and spoil the game,however,I do know that sprite has a program that does the stats without seeing the words and i think thats what my hubby uses when he does stats. :))
6:46 pm
Jenni
Thanks, tedybeth!!
6:49 pm
tedybeth
your welcome -- don't want anyone to give up on the game too soon! With 'noodling', I usually can come up with at least half on my own. Almost everyone has to use the clues from other players, etc. We're like a happy family --- always glad to see someone else get a word they've been looking for!!!
6:57 pm

Welcome Jenni , Don't give up hun,I find it helps to take a breakand give your eyes a rest then come back and try again.Good Luck To ya and if you have any other questions or even need hints please fill free to ask,there are lots of friendly people here who would be glad to help.

G7/36
a 7 letter word starting with "g" totalling 36 points.

7:29 pm

G7/44: Of, relating to, or having a sexual orientation to persons of the same sex

awesome. thanks alley and uneaixoise
7:35 pm
Uneaixoise
S9/66: for my generation the initial meaning is to impose the separation of (a race or class) from the rest of society (white water fountain, black water fountain, front of the bus, back of the bus).
7:36 pm
Uneaixoise
only one letter difference between the two S9/66's
7:36 pm
tedybeth
rayna: The large S words all have to do with isolating or separating - variations of the spellings

P8/65 and T8/60

unicorn7373: see clue posted by CAS at 7:07 -- explains it easily!
8:41 pm

This Babble game is very addictive. I've been at it for 2-1/2 hours and only have 124 words total for 1743 points. I think I will call it quits as I'm a little over 1/2 way through.
8:45 pm
tedybeth
Mary: no definition for the S8/50. But it's based on S4/4 -- meaning a break, pull or tear in a fabric; An unforseen or hidden obstacle.
8:49 pm

Tedybeth, you are the best. Got both of them. Thank you and to all a good night.

I'm having a really tough time with the G7 fabric one. Is it a common word?

While forming a word, do the letters 'spill over' from the top of the board to the bottom, or right-to-left? e.g: In this puzzle is "P' considered adjacent to "O" or "A"?

No, the G7 - fabric is not common at all. You could put the definition in a google search - might come up there ???

Alastyr
Hexium: No, sadly. :P
9:07 pm
tedybeth
heXium: no -- the letters must be touching -- the longer words often wind all around the grid, but they will be 'connected'
