thanks for those who tried to help me in the home stretch...got 100 words. Turned out I was looking for the wrong word needed "ta" not "te"...I must have counted incorrectly...oh, well.
12:11 am
wilson27fan
ok I dont understand those stats how do these ones work Im use to letter count and number of letters in a word
12:12 am
wilson27fan
whats the difference in the word count and the letter count
12:13 am
redletter
Wilson, just play as you're accustomed. The lists are telling you how many words begin with 'a', how many start with 'd'. etc
12:16 am
brandyjack
letter count tells you how many times the letter is used in total. rather useless info, but people tend to spend hours trying to find a word with Z when there are none. I should probably just let them waste their time, but....

yeah iv'e been here for a while and dont get me wrong i do appreciate the stats but the letter count and the word count threw me off . :))
12:18 am
brandyjack
Word count is rather obvious, if not formatted the way you're used to. I also have the word count broken out thus:
Ac 2 - ,Ac4/1,Ac5/1
but I don't post those before 6 pm as some folks get a little upset if I give away too much :D

These are yucky. Can I buy an e, Pat?
1:52 am
smithchick
Don't care for that letter count. Got my self confused and thought I needed 18 u's until I realized that I'm not missing enough words to need 18. Sheesh. Sleep deprivation may not be a good thing.
1:55 am
Tirtsa
Do all you amazing people scoring in the thousands use dictionaries? I just started babble this week and have only reached 773, but have sworn not to use one.
2:09 am
sprite
Usually I do not use aids, though when I need a couple more words to finish that I cannot seem to find, I grab a dictionary from the shelf here or try a2zwordfinder. Some very strange words come around regularly, so when you play more often, you start to recognise them.
Also nice: finding words by typo's :D
T5/18 - 6/30 : freeman granted land by the king in return for military service in Anglo-Saxon England
2:10 am
smithchick
Yep, I use one because I'm just obsessed and can't stand not to finish. My rationalization is that I'm learning all kinds of really nifty things.
2:16 am
sprite
Just like me, lol! Those last few words just cannot be left alone, can they smithchick?
I usually find the log a great help too, and stats help. Though I do not care for the lettercount, the wordcount is great. And the clues of course, especially the cryptic ones, I love those!
2:35 am
baggo
hello all, i love reading the log, but i too, while at times i do use a2z there are lots of words that repeat, and noodling always helps. i read the log but i rely on the word counts and take my lead from those. i am just so happy not to have to rely on my husband for stats....lol
2:36 am
baggo
i am a nurse and half the unit now has a copy of this puzzle and they are doing it. just for you uk gals, they don't think half these words are legit, and we are from the us...lol
2:37 am
smithchick
The log is definitely helpful, especially when one is searching in vain for the last e. The one that isn't fishy or any...other thing.
2:37 am
smithchick
I'm an Arkansas gal myself.
2:40 am
PAV3
I also use a word finder, but only after my feeble brain has tired. Sometimes the listed words are not spelled as we think they s/b.
After two hours, 75/839. Missing 3 6 ltr wrds, 4 5 ltr wrds and 6 4 ltr wrds. Need the last e, g, h , 2 l's, r's ,s's, and 4 t's. After one week of playing, haven't come this close to finishing. Good thing I can rest overnite. Ciao...

Of, relating to, involving, or designed for use in grades 1 to 12...e4/7

Ciao PAV3

night pav..
2:48 am
smithchick
This would be a perfect example of why aids are fine by me. My sanity isn't worth whatever feeling of superiority I may gain from not having used one. I simply must try to find that e at whatever cost to my sense of superiority.
2:51 am
smithchick
Thank you very much, baggo. I love you! Now I can go to bed and hope to get six whole hours of sleep tonight, as opposed to the three or four a night I've been averaging since discovering this dratted game. Night all.

What happened to all the clues? It's quite interesting reading what time you all go to bed, but I want to get on with the game!!!! Someone help me out on the t5/18 -freeman.
3:39 am
baggo
how about "an english thane" ? t5/6 combo
3:40 am
Hugabugs
Ok.. got them all.
t5/18 is a VASSAL, usually a manorial LORD, holding land by military or administrative services in Anglo-Saxon and early Norman England.

Hi, utterly befuddled newbie here. I did manage to get 41 before I went dry, and #42 from one of the more recent hints. But I haven't figured out the code/abbr/whateveritis you guys use, and my ego is smarting! :) Also don't know where to find these helps? word finder?? are the dictionaries you guys use online, or what?
5:53 am
tiger
Chloe you need Dr4. the other word is
a plural of the other
5:53 am
Anj
Welcome, tygerbryght!
When we say a5/16 it just means starts with a, has 5 letters, worth 16 points.
www.a2zwordfinder.com or Google are good places to hunt weird ones.
5:54 am
chloe
but it wont fit as a plural
5:55 am

my humble thanks, Anj. You may have saved my sanity. :D

I can't find any of the other 2 ge4's...any clues?
10:22 am
Moozey
movieman have you got le5/10 if so add an f to the front of the word
10:23 am
hkw31
Movieman - To strip the blubber or skin from (a whale, for example). + someone who does this.
10:25 am
sherb
movieman, the meaning is 'to cut up the blubber of', not that that helps. If you add a letter to the front of one of the le4/4's and another (or two) at the end, you'd have these words.
10:31 am
Anj
JonathanDDR - those ge4/5s: Pick from
1) what you pull in a tight turn (aircraft or roller coaster)
2) hair product, plural (or young women at St Trinians as pronounced by Alistair Sim)
3) a tribe/sept/clan - or if you learn something you g... up on it (but plural)
4) upper class bloke (although that's open to debate)
5) a knee (or better still, a moose with an extra e!)
10:34 am
lola100
Anj, are you finished? Thanks for the T's, got the tu5/10 but cannot see the others (aaargh!), little more help? :)

yay complete.
10:38 am
Anj
lola100, you will have a th4/7 and a plural which is the th5/16.
Once you have those, you just need to drop a g in the middle.
It's an olde worlde spelling of thane.
10:38 am
AngelaC
any clues for the n word? Really can't see it at all
10:38 am

12:40 pm
Anj
tbear - how lomg? I was forever flying between Bristol & Edinburgh, although Glasgow & London got a look in as well
12:42 pm
Anj
tbear, the other two Ds are a scottish word for bear (ha!) or endure.
Think of large antlered animal and move the r... then do it again for the plural.
12:43 pm
brandyjack
the dr4/5 and dr5/12 mean to endure, to suffer, wearisome etc. from old Scots and Prov English
12:43 pm
brandyjack
actually it means TO bear, not A bear.
