Any more clues for the o6/21? Logically, there is only one tile that isn't a 1 and there are only 2 of those on the board that can be used, so that narrows it down, but other than that, I can't get it.

That's what you're trying to accomplish! :-) There's no prizes or anything, it's just for fun. Also, please don't post the words to chat -- it takes away the fun for everyone else!

i think society has reached such a point that popular culture and intellectual activities such as Babble have crossed over each other and become fused. In short, 'Ewok' should be a word.

jaelithe

Boreetos, I vote that we can only make ewok a word if we make SETI a word. Still grumbling about that one from the other day . . . it accepts other acronyms . . . ;)

Also, I seriously think Babble ought to allow names of languages, being that it allows names of currency, and also proper nouns that can also be used as commonplace adjectives, such as Hindu, or ajectives derived from proper nouns, such as Asian, especially since it for some reason allows Mayan and Celtic! But I digress . . .

Who knows; maybe the game would lose its mystique if it weren't so darned quirky about what it considers real words . . .

2:40 pm

boreetos

Seti should definatley be a word. I tried that one too.

7:13 pm

Jacula

Anj - GOT IT! Thank you!:-)

7:13 pm

lola100

Then why, oh why, dear Une, do I feel sooooo thick?!

7:19 pm

lola100

NOOOOOO PETER- DON'T GO, YOU'RE NEARLY THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7:20 pm

Jacula

Goonight Peter. I'll be off myself soon at 101 words 1268. Not too bad for a first try.

7:20 pm

Jax

Mi 6, an occupation, trade or profession. the word (if not pronounced with the french pronunciation) reminds me of something in the sky that starts with m, but like a comet. but spelled very differently

7:21 pm

Uneaixoise

are there 2 mi6's??

7:22 pm

lola100

do-oh! I feel like such an idiot!

7:22 pm

Uneaixoise

oh . . . jax, you meant mE6, right?

7:22 pm

Anj

Careful Jax, that's the me6 you're defining :)

7:23 pm

Jacula

Uneaixoise - Yes, there are 2 me6/24s.

7:25 pm

Anj

Woah - reality check here! How come the grid takes mi6/24 (sounds like baby cat)? when the letters don't match up??

7:25 pm

lola100

No, there's an mi6/24 and an me6/24.

7:26 pm

lola100

They do Anj, start with the bottom t first and go up!

1.25am here folks and time I was off. Got my forum to see to before I zzzzzzzzzz. It's been a good first day and I hope to 'see' you all again soon. Goodnight.

7:26 pm

Babbler

oh noooo!! more cat sounds?????

7:26 pm

Anj

Ignore that last post... :'(

I'm now going to a) get a brew, and b) take my brain outside and give it a damn good shoeing...

7:27 pm

Jacula

Lola & Anj - Oops! Yes, sorry. 1 me6/24 and 1mi6/24.

7:27 pm

Punster

sorry, Lola, I can't stay any more :(
But I'm expecting you to beat me!

7:29 pm

Jacula

One last easy clue for mi6/24 before I go. A fingerless glove. It does work on the grid, I promise you, but in a very roundabout way.

7:29 pm

lola100

Has anyone completed the W's?

7:30 pm

lola100

8:11 pm

llama

lola100 - it's another wo4/11. one has to do with sleep, the other refers to someone who studies excessively.
thanks for the we6!

8:11 pm

Mary

lola100, there is another wo4/11 meaning nerd

8:14 pm

llama

8:17 pm

lola100

Thanks llama and mary, got it. Also only one more w word to go and I'm finished. It's gone 2am tho', so don't know how long I'll last.

8:20 pm

Anj

Hey Llama, from your list it's either a we/4 or a we/6.

Don't quit Lola - get that word - which letter is it?

8:23 pm

Anj

D'oh! Silly Q...
Between Llama's list and my last post that should be all the Ws

Okay, so I must be missing a we4. I have we4/7 x 5, we4/8, we4/11 x 4 and we4/9. A total of 18 x w4. Is that right?

8:40 pm

lola100

I found it!!! Yay, 195 words, thanks for all your help guys, goodnight! :)

8:41 pm

Anj

I've got 6 x we4/7s. What ones do you have?

8:42 pm

brandyjack

There are only 10 WE4's. I don't put point scores in there, just the first two letters, total length of the word, then number of words. Your total seems to be more than that.

8:42 pm

Anj

Sorted! Goodnight :)

8:58 pm

Hugabugs

Has anyone a hint for my last we6 word? I have we6/30...just need one more to close off the w's.

9:08 pm

Babbler

hugabugs--I found it just now!! add 'ed' to one of your we4/7s.....

9:09 pm

Babbler

also adds up to we6/30....

9:09 pm

sj

Babbler I just found the we4/7 plus 'ed' word that you did. What's the other we6 hint?

9:12 pm

Babbler

there are only 2 we/6 words. one's to do with gardening, the other is an obsolete word for 'wet'.

9:13 pm

Babbler

has anyone completed the Cs? I'm looking for clues for co6 and co8. thx

9:18 pm

brandyjack

co6/36 A leguminous climbing plant

9:18 pm

sj

babbler might you have any more hints other than an obsolete word for wet?

9:19 pm

Hugabugs

Babbler... Thanks Just 2 more words and I've got the list complete.

9:19 pm

swmbo

ca6: a yellow bird
co8: small bits of paper you throw at a wedding

9:19 pm

brandyjack

co8/65 candy, latin

9:20 pm

swmbo

sorry, wrong way around...

9:20 pm

brandyjack

we6/36, to know + suffix

9:22 pm

brandyjack

grrr.
we6/30, to know + suffix

9:23 pm

Babbler

sj - the we6 is the we4/7 + ed. The we4/7 is a Chaucerian (??) word for wet. I don't know how else to describe, I only found it by accident! : ))). The we4/7 in question sounds like a grain.......

9:23 pm

sj

thank you both so much!

9:25 pm

Babbler

thanks brandyjack + swmbo. just the leguminous plant to find for the Cs....

9:25 pm

Babbler

(blush) did I read the definition wrong for that we4/7?? eek! sorry.

9:28 pm

brandyjack

no, both definitions fit, and are obscure

9:30 pm

Hugabugs

I'm just missing two... de6 I have de6/24
and ur5 I have ur5/14..... anybody? This is the closest I've ever come to all the words.

9:32 pm

Hugabugs

Oh... I got the u5.... just one left

9:33 pm

EgelNest

This is my first puzzle...I am already addicted...i have 83 words and I have no idea about any others...but his is so fun!

9:34 pm

EgelNest

Do you have the De 6 word that would be associated with temperature?

9:36 pm

Hugabugs

EgelNest - Yes I do. I think the one I have missing is de6/30

9:36 pm

swmbo

de6/24 is what you get when you graduate from university.

9:36 pm

brandyjack

the de6/24 is similar to a de5/18 (indian gov't operative), but no definition availble. double up the vowel

9:36 pm

EgelNest

I have tried looking for that one too :)

Good Luck!

9:37 pm

brandyjack

that's twice. the DE6/30 is the funky one. de6/24 is temperature related.

9:40 pm

Babbler

does anyone have another clue for the co6 leguminous climbing plant? thx

9:41 pm

swmbo

de6/30
Two parts
First part is the 4th letter of the laphabet
second part a word that means pale

9:41 pm

EgelNest

the first part of the word goes moo...
the second part is how old you are...

9:42 pm

swmbo

Yes, I would also like the plant, then that has to be it for me!

9:42 pm

brandyjack

er, mucuna?

9:42 pm

Hugabugs

swmbo ---- *huge hugs* Thanks so much... GOT IT!

9:44 pm

Babbler

egelnest - you are brilliant!

9:45 pm

swmbo

and thank YOU EgelNest. Off to bed. I didn't finish but I am pleased with my results.

157/2572

9:45 pm

Babbler

brandyjack - just googled mucuna. thx to you too for the clue

9:46 pm

brandyjack

51 to go.

9:49 pm

Babbler

brandyjack-- how did you get the word distribution if you're still doing the puzzle? I thought you were the Babble Meister!

9:56 pm

brandyjack

found a progyy that will generate the wordlist on screen. then i cross my eyes, cut and paste to a text file. Then i wrote a proggy in old GWBASIC that mashes the text file and generates the stats. Occasionally I don't cross my eyes enough and get a couple of free words.

10:00 pm

Babbler

wow that's clever. You ARE the Babble Meister!!

10:01 pm

Jax

8 words to go and I need your help!!! For starters I'm missing the 2 re 5's. clues or points pleeeeeese

10:04 pm

Babbler

jax-- one is when you win again. the other is when you're pale again...

10:04 pm

Babbler

both are re5/16

10:07 pm

Jax

thank you thank you. Now I'm 3 away. Never been this close....

10:11 pm

Jax

oops I mean 4 more, a D, 2 w's and an A

10:15 pm

Babbler

Jax-- I've got all the As. I've got almost all the Ds (one to go). I've got 4 more Ws to find. What do you need?

10:21 pm

Jax

Ijust found my last D. Whoo Hoo. But I'm stuck on that darn A. I need an AW 6 and I think I have the 2 ones that are kinda repeated throughout the puzzle
So I need the other one.

10:22 pm

Jax

Thanks Babbler. Let ne know if I can help with the D and maybe swap some W's, unless 2 that you are missing are same for me!

10:24 pm

Babbler

jax-- yes please help me with that D! I bet it was the de5 you just found (??). Let me know which A you want. yes, let's see what we can do with the Ws!

10:25 pm

Jax

Wow. that was random. Just finished my W's. So I'm counting on you Babbler for that last A!! Can I help with you w's?

10:26 pm

brandyjack

well, the two aw6/36's are when someone does it to you or you do it on your own. AW6/39 is when you are too worn out to aw6/36 or be aw6/36'd.

10:26 pm

Babbler

jax-- the a6/36?? the one where you a-tired? (that's a cheeky clue)!

10:26 pm

Jax

I need an Aw 6. The D I just found was a de 5/18, there are 4 of them. Is that what you need?

10:28 pm

Babbler

thx jax.... let me just work out which Ws I need. If that's ok? I'm also looking for that de5/4!

10:29 pm

Babbler

oops, hang on. I have 2 x de5/18s. I think there are 3. I'm looking for the 3rd. I've got the funky indian govt person, and I've got the uni qualification

10:30 pm

Jax

Bless you babs! This is the 1st one I finished. I told my husband if I got them all he wouldn't be a widower tomorrow. Our son has been away all week but I've been stuck up here! Yeah. My husband will love you!!!

the de - think sun

10:30 pm

Jax

They should set off stars and suns when you finish. If someone didn't post the stats you could keep going driving yourself nuts!@

10:31 pm

Babbler

i'm braindead! I mean there are four de5s of course. I've got what you get from da sun as well...

10:32 pm

Jax

Babbler - there are 4 de 18's

10:33 pm

Jax

Okay - do you have this de? Think Iraq

10:34 pm

Jax

the de's - sun, Iraq, pale, sweetheart

10:37 pm

Babbler

yayy! thx, got the D! For the Ws, I need 2 more wa4s, and 2 more we5s. (I'm at 170 words by the way - a long way behind you!) Congrats for finishing!!! : )))

10:39 pm

fnurt

I have the 2 Aw6's that go together, but I am missing the other one.

10:43 pm

brandyjack

the clue for that is at 10:26, although calling my mad maunderings clues could be stretching it a bit.......

10:44 pm

Jax

Babbler - do you know what W's you need? I'm gonna hit the road soon, but wanted to stick around and help since you and Brandyjack saved me!

10:46 pm

Jax

babbler - 1 we 5 is the word you gave me without the a. the other we 5 is a type of haircut, shoe, and golfclub

10:47 pm

broll

Help! 37 to go. have pe5/14x2. Any clues?

10:48 pm

cbr1965

it's like the small pe word

10:50 pm

cbr1965

also part of phrase meaning "small cake" in French

10:51 pm

Jax

babbler - the wa's are 4/13, 4/8, 4/11, 4/10 x 2 and 4/7 x2. do you know which one you need?

10:53 pm

Babbler

jax-- I got them! I need some w4s, but don't want to keep you if you need to go. Could you give me a clue to the Pes? I'm after that 7!

10:55 pm

fnurt

While we're on the Wa subject I am missing a Wa5...

10:56 pm

Jax

Pe 6 is little kids baseball, pe 7 - think a kind of cash, then think about a person like that and make them more like that.

10:57 pm

Babbler

ahaa! I need a wa4/7 and a 4/10. I've got the one where you're a bit anxious, and what shopkeepers have.

10:57 pm

Jax

fnurt - if it is the one that I had trouble with you have one just like it with an o on the end, change the o to another vowel

10:59 pm

fnurt

thanks! lot of wacky words in this one.

11:00 pm

Jax

Babbler - the w4/10 is to ebb, from Chaucer. you usually think of this word with a vowel on the end. the w4/7 is and old word for worse. Think Iraq and add another vowel in the middle.

good luck and nightie night all!

11:01 pm

broll

Have kn5/24. Tried all combos could think of. Any clues on other?

11:01 pm

Babbler

nite nite jax!! thanks for the help!

11:01 pm

fnurt

Prayer might give you the answer...

11:03 pm

cbr1965

kn/5 you do it in a church

11:04 pm

broll

oops! That's the one I have. kn5/18

11:07 pm

cbr1965

you should "know" the other one

11:21 pm

brandyjack

190 is enough for me. nite all

11:23 pm

cbr1965

I'm still stuck on the Pe/7 - can't figure out "kind of cash" in earlier clue - anyone have any other clues?

11:25 pm

Babbler

nite brandyjack!
cbr -- think of someone very small minded....

11:29 pm

cbr1965

Thanks much - got it!

11:48 pm

quill

How many people *really* play without using a word list?

11:51 pm

cbr1965

I am but I only have 97

11:52 pm

Babbler

I don't use a word list

11:52 pm

quill

I lucked into 117 this time - with some lucky guessing for several "words"

11:53 pm

quill

or a word distribution tool either...

11:53 pm

Babbler

I've got 178. don't ask me how!!

11:53 pm

Zade

I have 143 words - 2429 points , without using a dictionary, word list or search engine. It is the only way to play. Otherwise you just make it a boring wordsearch puzzle.

11:53 pm

Babbler

what's a word distribution tool? like brandyjack's?

11:54 pm

Babbler

I used a2zwordfiner yesterday. Never again! I went word-blind!

11:55 pm

Babbler

and it was really booooooring!

11:57 pm

quill

true Zade... and well done too.!

11:58 pm

Babbler

you get more a buzz when you find words yourself!

11:59 pm

quill

absolutely Babbler

12:00 am

Babbler

but I do use google and the online dictionary. so I guess I'm not as good as Zade!
