brandyjack

12:48 am

Lijuan

any clues for X5?

12:52 am

Gwen

X5/28 belonging to a non-metallic element of rare or inactive gases.

12:55 am

brandyjack

x/5 is a type of bacterial cultivation. And it can be prefixed for another type of cultivation

c7/36

1:06 am

brandyjack

whadya mean Aveo isn't a word. I drive one...........

1:12 am

Doogle

I think the area in which Babble has increased my vocabulary to the greatest extent is in the fairly useless area of obscure fishes.

1:12 am

brandyjack

i would hardly call the s4/8 obscure..........

1:13 am

Doogle

The c4/9 is a bit more so. At least *I* didn't know it before. :)

1:15 am

brandyjack

you mean the type of salmon? It's one of three canned types in every supermarket here in canada. The other two are sockeye and so-called pink. the one i was thinking of is the stage between row and minnow.

1:15 am

HighEnergy

c4/9 is hyperbolic, in the unexaggerated sense.

1:16 am

brandyjack

and there is another c4/9 meaning to bop him on the noggin'

1:17 am

Doogle

Man. You guys have got canned salmon???

1:18 am

Blaze

Canned ??? I have fresh Salmon.....

1:19 am

Doogle

Wow. Down here I just have to use the powdered form.

1:19 am

brandyjack

our local supermarkets have improved lately. canned and frozen fillets used to be the only way. Now you can buy fresh fillet's, steaks, smoked and live trout. I know beacuse my oldest daughter in university loves the stuff and suckers me into buying it for her.

1:22 am

swmbo

Well, of course we have fresh fish also. Smoked and salted too...

1:23 am

swmbo

Brandyjack, you must not be on either coast? In Nova Scotia, we have fresh fish year around.

1:24 am

brandyjack

no, southern ontario for me. and anyone who eats fish out of the lakes is asking for trouble.

1:26 am

swmbo

Where in Ontario?

1:27 am

Doogle

Down here in Maryland we've got the northern snakehead. If you want some we'd be glad to send them crawling north.

1:27 am

brandyjack

between Toronto and Ottawa. Maybe 60 miles east of Courtice

1:31 am

swmbo

Well, I don't know where any of you are finding these 5 and 6 letter words, I am not having any luck. Too tired maybe. I'd better head to bed soon...

1:33 am

ridthecancer

the x clue... i have the first 4 letters, but the last isn't there! i'm lost. wahaa.

1:34 am

Loma

Brandyjack, you're not too terribly far from me. I'm in Buffalo, New York.

1:35 am

brandyjack

40 words and 440 cnt is enough for tonight. Yas, I'm at the other end of the lake on the north shore. CFB Trenton in fact.

1:37 am

mich

and there is another fishy c4/7!!

1:54 am

HighEnergy

m4/7 - slang for some English footballers. why's that one in the dictionary? hehehe

1:56 am

sprite

Wow, major improvement on the beta babble, the 'oops' message is no longer a pop up! I am pretty sure the message bug is fixed too - great work, Dr_God!

2:03 am

smithchick

Is debs40ish here?

2:07 am

Zade

It won't accept CHAV ! LOL

2:11 am

Debs40ish

Morning Smithchick... yes I'm here..well in body away...think my minds absent!...lol

2:11 am

Zade

.........or DOHS, DOH!

2:13 am

Debs40ish

Morning all from cloudy England... knew the sun wouldn't last long! :)

2:16 am

HighEnergy

h6/33 - like totaly gnarly dude!
Any clues on the E's? I've not got a single one

2:18 am

sprite

I have one E4/7, a common word. Where all the rest is hiding, I do not know. :)

2:21 am

smithchick

Hey, debs...(hope you don't mind being abbreviated). How goes it? Still only managed to find one 6-letter word. Aack!

2:23 am

Debs40ish

I have an ex 4 and ex 5..... How's you Smithchick... please call me Debs...I would say call me anything most do but I'd need a clue to know it was me you were talkin to....lol

2:24 am

Debs40ish

Me too... is it c6? I have the c7.....

2:25 am

Debs40ish

Why isn't saddo a word!....gawd sake...

2:26 am

smithchick

Yes, it's the c6. Don't have the seven, and I only have one e. It's an e4

2:28 am

sprite

There is this pretty strange O6/33. Being dutch with some latin knowledge, I thought it had to do with eggs, but it doesn't. It is something scientific.

2:29 am

Debs40ish

c7 is same as c6 but with letter added... sshhhh don't tell anyone else...lol

2:32 am

elmer

smithchick i thought you were done for the night.
ithought i was done for the night too

2:34 am

smithchick

We lied... Why??? Because we are ridiculously obsessed. Not to mention, daft (me, anyway). I still don't see that c7.

2:38 am

Debs40ish

Just put in your c6 then try adding every letter round it.... I don't know what it means.. it's latin!....Then again I don't know what half these words mean..lol

2:40 am

smithchick

Are there two c6's? I tried every letter around the end of mine, to no avail. Mine is 6/39. A selection.

2:43 am

GingerUK

Good Morning from Surrey, England!

2:43 am

HighEnergy

my bathroom is big enogh that I can co+s5/22 with someone else. too bad it's not a word!

2:44 am

rolin

good morning from elstree england

2:44 am

rolin

ginger ive only been here for 2 days..and already my partner is saying goodbye to me when i sit down..lol

2:45 am

GingerUK

Rollin... I don't have a partner to upset but the kids get a bit miffed!

2:46 am

rolin

aaah..mine are all grown up...and tell them im an english teacher and i say its ok..lol

2:47 am

sprite

Yes, there must be 2 C6's then. I have C6/24 and that one can be made into a C7. Go hunt for your C6 now!

2:47 am

GingerUK

I have 3 grown and 3 young ;) English teacher huh? What did you do to deserve that???

2:48 am

rolin

2:48 am

sprite

Found it right away with your clue, smithchick, thanks!

2:49 am

GingerUK

avid isn't accepted!!!????!!!

2:49 am

smithchick

You're very welcome! Now I'm on the c6 hunt.

2:50 am

GingerUK

LOL ok:)

2:51 am

HighEnergy

sure it is giner - maybe you're just not determined enough about it?

2:51 am

sprite

Ginger, retry and check yr typing ;)

2:52 am

HighEnergy

hah - then Rolin should get one of the 3 m4/6, though they were more on an island to the east.

2:55 am

GingerUK

oops, how do you spell a 4 letter word wrong??? <blushing>

2:56 am

rolin

ok being a newbie...have i read the guide wrongly??..there are ELEVEN words with 'x' in???

2:57 am

Dianne

Good Afternoon from Hong Kong all.
I've got V4/7 x 2 and V5/28 but can't find that last one. Anyone got it?

2:57 am

sprite

rolin, you have it right. The X is used 11 times, and once at the beginning of a word.

2:58 am

Debs40ish

h6/33..still can't find 2nd c6 :-/

2:58 am

smithchick

Alright, drat it, I need a clue on that blasted c6 so I can go to bed and not have to see c's in my sleep. PLease!!!

2:59 am

smithchick

Debs, an option...

3:00 am

rolin

can someone tell me pls if there is a list that breaks down the each word size..or are you guys just faster than me...lol...

3:01 am

sprite

smithchick: colorless oily liquid, derived from eucalyptus and used in pharmaceuticals, flavoring, and perfumery

3:02 am

Debs40ish

have you got the c7 smithy?

3:05 am

smithchick

No, apparently I'm either seriously sleep-deprived, thus negatively affecting my ability to think, or I'm not nearly as clever as I thought I was.LOL

3:06 am

sprite

A6/45 x2

3:07 am

HighEnergy

gah, it's the middle ages and the normans have no one to fight - s6/12 isn't accepted!

3:07 am

Debs40ish

ermmmm... I'm tryin to think of a clue....the beginning is what people had before video cameras....

3:08 am

rolin

erm...are plurals allowed now?

3:09 am

Debs40ish

Loads of them Ros.....

3:10 am

GingerUK

HighEnergy, I noticed that too... maybe it's classed as a real name?

3:10 am

smithchick

WooHoo!!! I love ya, Debs! Thx to you and sprite. Now, perhaps sanity will return! I'm off to bed, back tomorrow after church (assuming I can pry my thirteen-yr.-old from his pirate game.

3:12 am

Debs40ish

Cya Smithy... sweet dreams :) cya tomorrow x

3:15 am

GingerUK

how long is the X word anyone please?

3:16 am

Zade

5 letters gingeruk

3:16 am

sprite

sweet dreams, smithchick!

3:17 am

Debs40ish

x/5

3:18 am

GingerUK

thanks deb

3:22 am

sprite

I need 2 more S's and they are driving me bananas. Tried everything I could think of. It is always those Ss with me!

3:23 am

Dianne

Sprite, A6/45 - got one but the other one is hiding.

3:23 am

sprite

Dianne, they differ by only one letter.

3:24 am

GingerUK

got the x thanks deb... more from luck than knowledge though!

3:26 am

sprite

Does anyone have a S6? Must be there, I am missing one 5 and one 6 word... but I cannot find a 6 for the life of me. Nor a 5, actually.

3:28 am

GingerUK

s5 should be familiar to men... and women actually... daily routine

3:29 am

Zade

Sprite , have sh5/18, sh5/22 and so5/12, but no s6 unfortunately.

3:30 am

sprite

I do have that S5. Got 5/18, 5/22 and 5/12, all common enough words. I do a recount, see if it is really a 6-word I am missing... I am getting desperate enough to use the lettercount down in the log, to see which letters must be used :D

3:31 am

Dianne

Sprite, I only have 10 S words including SH5/18, SH5/22 and SO5/12. Is that any help?
Thanks for the A word hint - got it.

3:39 am

sprite

This is bad... if I counted right, I must use 2 more Cs, 2 more Hs and 2 more Vs. Since the S is given, there can be only one vowel in the 5. I guess that it is a combo 5-6, seeing how the missing letters come in pairs... and still I cannot find them.

3:39 am

tbear

Morning everyone....a slightly worse for wear tbear,this fine sunday morning.....here we go....91 and counting down

3:40 am

sprite

Morning tbear... you have picked a wicked grid to wake up to!

3:40 am

GingerUK

any help on the s5/18?

3:41 am

sprite

S5/18 is plural of S4/8

3:42 am

Zade

Gimgeruk, plural of an s4/8

3:46 am

sprite

Bless Brandyjack for the letter countdown, first time I needed it, but it sure made me find these crazy words. There is only one way to connect the missing letters when you have to start with S and then you find two yiddish words, a 5-6 combo indeed.
Chilled soup(s) made with sorrel, onions, lemon juice, eggs, and sugar and served with sour cream.

With the O6, that makes two completely new words today - guess I legitimized my babbling for today then ;)
Thank you guys for helping me.

3:47 am

sprite

S5/26 - 6/42 - forgot to mention the points.

3:47 am

tbear

hey sprite....think you're right...still u nlike you guys I don't struggle to the bitter end...I've a shortish attention span

3:47 am

HighEnergy

too many fish in this one!!!

3:48 am

sprite

tbear, I admire you for that. I keep telling myself there is no reason whatsoever to keep on struggling till all words are accounted for, but I cannot seem to stop myself. Pitbull mentality, my husband calls it. :D

3:49 am

sprite

So... it is 91 words / 4.46 / 1183 points we are trying to cough up today. Nasty grid it was!

3:50 am

tbear

I admire you guys,your dedication to babbling duty

3:52 am

sprite

Lol! This dedication borders on lack of common sense in my case. But since I am off to study outdoors for a couple of days, I am forced to go cold turkey on babbling until Friday or Saterday. Guess that will be all for the best ;)

3:53 am

tbear

Sprite I'm suffering a little this morning, post weekend!!!! so might not even bother to get passed 20 words.....Cop out Kid....that's me. have u finished already??

3:53 am

Zade

Crikey Sprite i would never have got the s5,6 without your help. Can't imagine i will ever use in my lifetime!!

3:54 am

tbear

Sprite...have a gr8 time...what are u studying?

3:55 am

sprite

For me it took brandyjack's lettercount to find them and that only worked because they were my final 2 words... I learn something new, if totally useless, in every grid ;)

3:57 am

sprite

It is a kind of advanced study for therapists and coaches that I am enjoying very much. It is on weekends and takes 3 years, but in every year we have a summer week. I will not allow myself to take my laptop with me, lol.

3:57 am

tbear

hey this really is a bad bay babble

4:00 am

tbear

Sounds gr8...I thought when u said outdoors it might be Horticulture...which is my occupation now. NO LAPTOP for sure. have a great time.

4:03 am

sprite

Thanks... and the facility has a great garden, so I will be outdoors for real some of the time :D
Have a nice week all of you, babbling and otherwise.

4:05 am

GingerUK

Hmmm... only s4/8 I have can't be pluralised... am I missing one?

4:07 am

Zade

I have 2 s4/8 Ginge

4:16 am

GingerUK

thanx.. that sorted it!

4:20 am

Atalante

*hugs Dr God* love the "invalid word" and "not 4 letters" bit now!

4:26 am

Denny

good morning from a very sunny nottingham

4:31 am

GingerUK

I only have 1 v... v4/ 7 a water v***... any other clues like letter legths please?

4:33 am

sprite

Ginger, hate to tell you this but... there are all 4/7

4:34 am

GingerUK

:o thanx sprite!

4:40 am

Dianne

Looking for 2 more 6 letter words. Have AE, AX x 2, CH, CI, HO & SC.
Any hints?

4:41 am

sprite

E6 and O6.

4:51 am

Dianne

Thanks Sprite but with 4 Os and 3E this will take me all night .......UGH!

4:56 am

sprite

The E-word differs only one letter from the word for "out of the ordinary, strikingly unusual, of foreign origin".
For the O-word see 02.28 am. Can't put it any closer than that without giving away too much :(
Good luck hunting, I am off now!

4:56 am

GingerUK

is there a clue for AE6 please?

4:58 am

Zade

Ginger, it's an extension of an a4/4.

4:59 am

melissamay

Ginger, think of thousands of years worth of cigarettes. And if you can give me a clue for h6/33 in return, maybe I won't actually smoke that many trying to find it...

5:00 am

Zade

Melissamy, plural of a h5/20.

5:02 am

GingerUK

Thanks Zade and Melissa... got tat now :) I would willingly help with h's but I haven't got any yet!!!

5:03 am

melissamay

Oh Zade...if only I had the h5/20...but thank you, that will help!

5:07 am

melissamay

Found it, Zade -- THANKS.

5:20 am

Dianne

Sprite, thanks for the tips - got them both. Could not have done it without your help.

5:25 am

Wendrie

Sprite - I have a s5/26 and its plural an s6/42

weird soup if that helps :)

5:26 am

Wendrie

Sprite - I've got a s5/26 and its plural s6/42 - a weird soup...

5:28 am

Wendrie

weird - I couldn't connect to the log for ages and when I finally do it loads the message twice....

5:37 am

Zade

HELP! Have only 4 L's. lo4/5, lo5/12, lo4/4, lo47. Can not find the other 3, driving me bonkers!

5:41 am

Janie

Why doesn't it like loonie?

5:42 am

Zade

Hi Janie, yeah strange, as it is in the enable dictionary that this puzzle supposedly uses!!

5:47 am

melissamay

Zade, I have 6 -- all of yours, including 2 4/9s. Try looking Very Very hard for both.

I am currently going mad trying to find the one left.

5:48 am

melissamay

Typo Zade sorry -- 2 4/7s, not 4/9s!

5:49 am

Zade

Hi Melissa, I only need one now but I don't have any 4/9's ? Confused!

5:50 am

Zade

Ah! Yes I found two more 4/7's just by the monkey typing method! Damned if I can find the last one though! AAAAAAARGH!

5:51 am

melissamay

I know EXACTLY what you mean. In fact, I'll join you: AAAAAAARGH!

5:54 am

Boysaway

c4/9

5:55 am

Zade

Meliisamay, I'm going to give the L a rest for now and hopefully it'll come to me later, good luck, I think you'll need it!

5:56 am

Janie

Me too Zade, it's making me cross, and cross eyed!

6:11 am

GingerUK

any clue from the h5/20?

6:13 am

Zade

Hi again Ginge, if you got the h6/33 you must get the h5/20 or is there another one?

6:14 am

GingerUK

I haven't got the h6 either!

6:15 am

GingerUK

I only have 3 h's h4/7 h4/8 h4/10

6:17 am

Zade

Sorry Ginge, I'm confusing you with Melissamay. Yes there is a h6/33 which is plural of h5/20, meaning is undefined but a cryptic clue would be "how father christmas greets his old man!"

6:20 am

GeoBabble

h5/20 Paris Hilton's father?

6:22 am

GingerUK

Loved the clues!!! hee hee got it now thanks!

6:25 am

tygerbryght

can't believe it doesn't accept nexi!

6:27 am

GingerUK

just need sc6 now to have all 6's

6:28 am

Dianne

I've got HA4/7, HA4/10, HO5/20, HO6/33 and HO4/8 - any clues for the last one?

6:29 am

Dianne

GingerUK, SC6 is the plural of SC5.

6:43 am

Zade

Hi Diane, I'd loooove to help on your last H but that's my last one to get as well, DOH!

6:44 am

tygerbryght

so.... how does one get one's (pitiful) score to register? I logged out, but when I checked the rankings, nada. Same was true last time I was here.

6:44 am

Denny

why won't it accept saxon?????

6:47 am

GingerUK

proper noun?

6:48 am

tygerbryght

I tried saxon too. Probably because it's a proper noun? The one I can't understand is nexi . That's a perfectly normal Latin plural (nexus). :(

6:48 am

Uneaixoise

tygerbryght, you have to play 3 times before you're ranked . . . but i ended up emailing dr. god to manually tweak things so i'd be ranked

6:50 am

vmk

how about a clue for SC5 - can't see it at all!!

6:51 am

tygerbryght

thx, Uneaixoise. I guess I'll just wait until next time. First time, I managed to get most of the words. This time, I've got a whole 41. :( So it's not as though it's a score to brag about.

6:51 am

Zade

Hi vmk, have you got the sc6?

6:51 am

Denny

vmk - what does rooney's girlfriend not liked to be called?...daniella westbrook is one too!

6:52 am

Dianne

O.K. 6 to go and I am giving up for tonight - dinner time! Have fun. Leave me some good clues for the last C, H, L, N x 2 & S. Have fun :)

6:52 am

vmk

6:53 am

Denny

vmk -put the s infront

6:53 am

Zade

cheers Diane, enjoy your dinner. I've got 9 to go but not given up yet!

7:04 am

Denny

7:06 am

mama

no loonie either. i tried moonie last week -- wouldn't take it.

7:07 am

Denny

doesn't like dosh either - cash free lifestyle?!

7:15 am

GeoBabble

or DOHS and there have been lots in this chat

7:21 am

tygerbryght

I can see it not accepting Xena, ;) but xeno? The philosopher was Zeno. Aaaargh. I've had it for today, but I did get 9 more, for a wonderful, marvelous :-P (not!) total of 50. Gonna have breakfast and go to bed.

7:31 am

rolin

7:36 am

Zade

I'll pass on the snacks if you don't mind, but i'm up for the booze!

7:36 am

rolin

7:41 am

GingerUK

I can't get the o6/33 although it seems it should have something to do with eggs?

7:43 am

GeoBabble

tnx Ginger that was the clue I needed - bingo

7:43 am

rolin

try that again in english..lol..is there a board that has the break down of words we are looking for?

7:43 am

Zade

Rolin, those lists tend to be posted later, when more people have completed the puzzle......and more are stuck!

7:44 am

mu

hi rolin

it's scotish for "to have"

7:44 am

rolin

zade..thx...*mumbling*...finished the puzzle..HUH!. grumble mumble*

7:44 am

Zade

Ginge, yes it sounds like it could be pertaining to eggs, but it's not!

7:44 am

rolin

thx mu...found it..and have enblazened it on my forehead for other times...

7:45 am

GingerUK

Geobabble, doesn't help me much LOL... I have the first 3 letters... any chance on the 4th?

7:46 am

GeoBabble

Pulled hair out for hours on that word yesterday Rolin - got it by monkeytyping. I will never forget it now.

7:47 am

Zade

It has a lot in common with the two a6/45's.

7:47 am

rolin

geo...monkeytyping??.. is that where you just go thru all the impossible combinations of letters?

7:48 am

GeoBabble

works on 4 letter words like that

7:48 am

rolin

oh and...are there any ex- words?

7:48 am

Zade

We all resort to mokeytyping in desperation from time to time, but you'll find no works of shakespear here!

7:49 am

Zade

oh , mokey is a new word by the way. LOL

7:50 am

Zade

Rolin, I have 3 EX- words.

7:51 am

rolin

7:54 am

Zade

DON'T DO IT! LOL

7:54 am

Zade

Why do we let these pointless pursuits irk us so much?

7:56 am

rolin

zade..this is not pointless...*reaching for rationalisations*...i am a teacher of english...i am using this to increase my vocabulary....and with reaching 50...to exercise my fast depleting brain cells..lol

7:58 am

Zade

I think you should re-train as a teacher of gibberish, you'd fare better here!

7:58 am

rolin

hmm..maybe youre right...

7:59 am

Zade

I think I can say, without fear of contradiction, that most of the new words you learn here will not be usable in sane conversation!

8:01 am

rolin

thats ok..as i said..im a teacher...the kids i work with are insane anyway....lol..hey...do they print the list of the words that solved a puzzle..?

4:14 pm

Charm

Ax6 "Not contaminated by or associated with any other living organisms".

4:15 pm

Anj

Elmer, those ax6/45s only differ in spelling by one letter.
The first refers to something that is uncontaminated by any other micro-organisms (based on the greek for stranger)
The second is an extension of your ax4/11 and is probably linked to fibres that carry nerve impulses away from a cell (based on the greek for axis)

4:15 pm

Charm

The other Ax6 is just one letter different. Based on the Ax4/11.

sorry!

6:16 pm

Jacula

Hiya all. Just got in after a weekend away. I'm up to 48 words and have just come into the log. Was about to say a2z site. Glad you lot already have. No doubt I'll be using it before long, but first I'm going to check out today's log for clues.

6:16 pm

Babbler

thx silkysings, I hadn't seen the 3.01 breakdown. I hid the log. I am a proper idiot!

da4/8. I've got the one to rush off
da5/14 - I've got the room decor plural
ch5/22

thx guys!

6:18 pm

silkysings

figures there's nothing there for the ov6/33...does anyone have a hint on how i can find this stinkin thing? I need to finish and feed the baby

6:19 pm

Babbler

silkysings - the definition for the 06 is crazy, but here goes: "Of or relating to a device whose operation is based on the Ovshinsky effect"

but if I were you, I'd get an egg and send it into space! (my clue is miles better you have to agree!) : D

6:20 pm

Charm

Da4/8 - reverse the last two letters from your 'rush off' word.

6:20 pm

silkysings

da4--same letters different order as one you have
da5-plural of toddler's daddy
ch5-plural of ch4/10

6:21 pm

Charm

Da5/14 - plural of the baby talk for father.

6:21 pm

Babbler

ahaaa!!! thx CSA and Silkysings. Gottem!

: D

6:21 pm

Babbler

silkysings - you got your ov6 yet?

6:23 pm

brandyjack

ov/6 is on a2zwordfinder. but like me, you insisted on concentrating on the lower left of the puzzle instead of the upper right where it is...

6:23 pm

Babbler

would you adam and eve it? I had the ch5/22 all along!

thx again silkysings

6:24 pm

Jacula

That ov6 has gotta be ova.. something. Send it off into space? I'm puzzling....

6:25 pm

no a in it at all.............

6:27 pm

silkysings

god bless you brandyjack i can feed my daughter now, thanks a million

6:27 pm

cathy22w

any clues on the mo4/9?

6:28 pm

Babbler

sorry silkysings, didn't mean to confuse you.

6:30 pm

brandyjack

when you know the score, it makes it fairly easy.
Ov6/33 means it's 3 x point count. Which means the letters add to 11. Since the O and V add to 5 already, the remaining 4 letters must add to 6. Really limits the options. Since you know that 3 of them must be at least one, the 4th cannot be greater than 3. Which in fact means NONE of them can be greater than 3. An exercise in logic from there.

6:30 pm

Babbler

any clues for the ai4/4 ?

6:30 pm

Charm

Mo4/9 - to go from one place to another.

6:30 pm

Jacula

silkystring - Haven't looked back a brandyjack's breakdown yet, but if the mov4/9 you mean is the one I've got, then it's what someone might quite rudely say to you if you were in their way, 'mo** it!'

6:31 pm

brandyjack

what's the worst epidemic the world is facing today? African countries are hardest hit, but none are escaping it (denying it maybe, but not escaping).

6:33 pm

Babbler

oh wait - I'm babble-brained. there isn't an ai4/4. I've got the ai word. Maybe I should take a break. Floss my teeth or something? Anyone want a cup of tea? : D

6:33 pm

Jacula

Brandyjack - I'm not too hot on anything concerning numerical logic, since words are more my thing.:-(

6:34 pm

jooboz

Babbler: you need some plural help

6:34 pm

Babbler

thx brandyjack, the babble meister!

I'd best get up and put the kettle on.....

6:34 pm

jooboz

Cup of tea great., Even better with a G in it!!

6:34 pm

Babbler

jooboz-- I deffo need something!

(soz, couldn't resist)

6:35 pm

cathy22w

silly me... i already have the 4/9... it's one of the mo4/6's.... the last word to get!

6:35 pm

mich

would love cup of tea!! What a fab idea!!

6:36 pm

Babbler

brandyjack is talking about the same logic as scrabble, aren't you? I adore scrabble.

6:36 pm

brandyjack

if you are working from moozey's list, well, it has two errors int that I've seen. One of them is the ai4/4. I think it is supposed to be an al4/4, but not sure. There is one more error that i saw earlier but cannot pinpoint just now.

3. The silvery orb in the night sky.

6:40 pm

brandyjack

scabble is illogical......... in my opinion, downright scatological....... I have a single lane mind. trying to switch lanes to bugger up someone elses efforts or stop them from doing unto me is beyond me. Logic is my forte..... Calculus, war game strategy and other black magical artifices are not fun.......

6:40 pm

cathy22w

thank you for the clues.... I was missing the south american one... i must have tried all the combinations except that one!!!!

6:41 pm

Babbler

i'm dying to say scrabble is war, but it sounds really daft. so best not then, eh?

how many sugars everybody?

6:42 pm

brandyjack

Earl Grey, hot.

hmmmm. excellent idea. preheat the pot first please....

6:42 pm

Charm

No sugar, but a chunk of ginger....

No sugar ta, I'm sweet enough already!!

6:43 pm

Babbler

okley dokley......

6:43 pm

Jacula

Scrabble's one of my favourite games, too. What's the black magic stuff you're talking about Brandyjack??

Anyone played the board game 'Spinergy'? We have it here at home. It's a great game if you can write 'on the hoof' in one minute and think quickly.

6:44 pm

Charm

My hubby refuses to play word games with me. And I refuse to play strategy games with him!

6:45 pm

6:46 pm

Babbler

dark arts, brandyjack?

do y'all feel like i'm bringing the teas round? i feellike i should be filling a pot!

6:46 pm

cathy22w

well... off to NOT spend my evening on this, since I am finished! see you all tomorra!!!

6:48 pm

mich

you might want to make that a few pots!

6:50 pm

Babbler

okay!

6:50 pm

Jacula

Brandyjack - do you like your Earl Grey with lemon or milk?

6:51 pm

mich

choc digestives!! Mmmmmmm!!

6:53 pm

brandyjack

i've lost track of who suggested a cuppa, but thank you whoever you were.

6:54 pm

brandyjack

as for dark arts, have you ever dealt with calculus? humungously complicated equations to which you just pluck numbers out of midair and make it so...... failed it three times before i learned to leave it alone.....

6:54 pm

Babbler

it was meeeeeeee! : D

who else would it be, Babble Meister?!

6:55 pm

Babbler

I remember calculus

<shudder>

6:55 pm

SunnFlower

6:58 pm

jooboz

6:58 pm

brandyjack

i'm just waiting for someone to complain about all the off-topic hobnobbing going on in here........

6:59 pm

Babbler

I've got 90 words now. Just need one more. It's a mo4/6. I've tried all the combos, but can't find it! I've got the planet (?), creature, and birds.

everyone enjoying their teas and biscuits?

7:00 pm

I think I preferred the tea and bikkies conversation to calculus!! thats almost swearing!!

7:02 pm

mich

changing house?

7:02 pm

Babbler

OMG!! I've got 91 words. I have completed!! I never thought, when I woke up today, that I would complete today's game.

I'm in shock.......

7:03 pm

Jacula

I've got the 'x' word but there are 3 other legitimate 'x' words - the prefix xeno, and xhosa plus xhosas (cattle-rearing people from Africa).

7:03 pm

Babbler

I'll hang out, drink my tea, and help out with clues, if anyone needs anything?

7:03 pm

mich

think of a type of tooth without the r

7:03 pm

brandyjack

well, there is an mo4/6 tha is spealt the way a good mexican chocolate pepper sauce is pronounced. Of course there is a second one that is the actual spelling of the sauce. The first one is in reality a central american fabric panel, while the scond one is also a small blind rodent related to the vo4/7

7:04 pm

brandyjack

is that raw ginger with the tea? or candied/crystalline ginger? Sounds like it might be wonderful in my grey...

7:05 pm

Babbler

thx mich and brandyjack - got them!

I've got them all! (what did the count do on sesame street? was it manic laugh or cackle?)

7:06 pm

Jacula

Oh, don't worry about the complainers Brandyjack. They probably haven't got broadband. LOL. Anyway, all you have to to is click your middle mouse button and scroll fast to read the clues.

BTW, you still haven't said if you prefer lemon or milk in your Earl Grey.

I've got 54 words here - which isn't bad going as I not long got here. I'll be happy with that.

7:06 pm

Babbler

ooooh, saw some crystalised ginger yesterday in Holland & Barret. think it was on special........ mmmmm

7:07 pm

Babbler

I agree with Jacula, don't worry about complainers brandyjack. they do go on!!!

7:08 pm

brandyjack

sorry, lot of messages scrolled by while I was making my tea. I use milk and sugar in my grey, nothing in my english breakfast. Used to love Ridgeways "Her Majesty's Blend", but haven't been able to get Ridgeways in years........

7:08 pm

mich

am i being really thick? why cant I see the ea4??

7:08 pm

Babbler

...... what did I used to do at this time of night? I can't remember!

7:08 pm

Jacula

No one heard of the 'Spinergy' game I mentioned a while back? It's brill.

7:09 pm

brandyjack

i've only got 68 words tonight. I don't worry about finishing. It's the digging and pondering that is fun.

7:09 pm

mich

nice to take a break and chat, refreshes the mind I say!!

7:10 pm

mich

no not heard of spinergy game, where from?

7:10 pm

Babbler

mich - think something to do with roofs, but with no 's' on the end.

jacula, I've never heard of Spinergy. I've made a mental note and will look out for it. sounds brilliant!

7:10 pm

Jacula

BTW, why can't we have 'dosh' (Eng. slang word for money), 'moonie' (part of weird cult or someone who flashes derriere in public), 'chav' and 'chavs' (these very strange people who now inhabit much of UK) and 'saxon'?

7:13 pm

Babbler

More tea, Vicar?

: D

7:13 pm

mich

thanx babbler! Got it!! I am thick!!

Don't think an 'English' dictionary was used for this game!

7:13 pm

brandyjack

Saxon and Moonie are proper nouns.

7:14 pm

Jacula

OW! Just went to get 'Synergy' game off top shelf to describe it to you all and 6 jigsaws (one Beatles on in a TIN)and 3 other board games fell on top of me. Luckily the one that hight my right temple was a very small 'Wasijig' in a cardboard box.

7:15 pm

brandyjack

and they do allow monie and monies. They won't allow french words, but will allow greek girdles from 2500 years ago. and when i resort to word finders, it's usually some dang furrin' currency..........

7:15 pm

Jacula

Brandyjack - 'to do a moonie' here in UK means to... well, as I said.

7:15 pm

Babbler

Jacula! You ok? You poor little love!

7:16 pm

Jacula

Brandyjack - I'm sure I've used 'monie' and 'monies' on babble sometime in this past week?

Jacula

Yea, babbler. I'm still standing, as Elton John once sang. LOL.

7:18 pm

Jacula

I'm still puzzling over why 'sefton' (as im American saint) was allowed one day last week but not the next.

7:18 pm

swmbo

Just finished, but no time to read the log or interact, which is too bad really, as it is as much fun as finding the words. maybe tomorrow. :)

7:18 pm

mich

glad youre still with us Jacula!!

7:19 pm

brandyjack

are you sure it was allowed? I frequently fat-finger it and find that what I wanted to type was no good, but the fat-fingered version worked perfectly.

7:20 pm

Jacula

Night swmbo. Sometimes I'm single-minded over finding all the words and at other times I prefer the chat. Sleep well.

7:21 pm

Jacula

Yep, brandyjack, 'sefton' was definitely allowed.

7:22 pm

mich

just realised I have none of the no's any clues??!!

7:23 pm

barbk

I just had a cup of orange, passionfruit and jasmine green tea -Yum! Don't think it helped me find any words tho.

7:23 pm

Babbler

mich, I could write a book about one of them! (wink wink!)
the others - all to do with stars, 2 plurals and a singular

7:26 pm

Babbler

barbk -- your tea sounds delicious! I'm having a rooibush tea now....... aren't we civilised tonight!

brandyjack-- I've never tried raw ginger in earl grey before. I'll try it tomorrow and report back!

7:26 pm

Jacula

Anyway, back to that board game, 'Synergy'. Off the back of the box...

'Sample scenarios. Create a shocking tabloid headline using... WORDS: voices, nurse, fridge. Example response "sister VOICES outrage at naked NURSE found in FRIDGE".

Spin the wheels to pick 3 words at random, then use them to describe .... etc.

You'll make up riddles, slogans, tongue-twisters, songs, sayings with foreign accents and slice-of-life situations - and with over 350 million combinations, the game's different everytime you play.'

Enjoyed having tea with all of you -- only drinking Coke here ... but I can get choc. diges. biscuits at specialty shops here!! :-)

7:27 pm

brandyjack

i wasn't suggesting using raw ginger on your grey, was questioning what you use. And it's the crystalline ginger that's got me intrigued. I think the raw could be quite, um, expressive..

7:29 pm

Babbler

thx jacula! I bookmarked it and will have a look when my brain grows back......

7:31 pm

Babbler

brandyjack-- raw ginger in green tea is gorgeous! But I am sooooo intrigued by raw ginger in earl grey, I have to try it now. Maybe with a little honey to taste...... :D

7:32 pm

Bash

Hob Nobs or Mcvities digestives... Mmmmmmmm! Having some Lady Gray right now - the REAL Twinings in the black box, not that icky stuff in the blue box they like to sell us yanks. Have a Brit foods store nearby...YUM!

7:33 pm

mich

thanks babbler you genius! Have nmanaged to get 3 of the 4, stuck on last no4. not the scotia one

7:34 pm

mich

oops!! make that no5. not the plural scotia!!

7:36 pm

mich

being at work getting decent tea is a bit of a rarity!!

7:36 pm

brandyjack

i think she was saying something about writing something or other. Scotia's? I was thinking more along the lines of stars going boom. You must be from down east......

7:38 pm

Charm

Raw ginger in the pot while you steep the tea. The amount of ginger dictates how potent a taste you get - of course! But crystallised ginger to nibble on while you sip the tea. aaaahhh civilization

7:39 pm

mich

alls well!! Ignore all previous nonsense I've got them now!!

i'm in th UK

7:40 pm

Babbler

mich-- it's another way to make a word a plural. if you click on the ? for your star, you'll see it

7:41 pm

barbk

babbler - I've never heard of rooibush.I googled it tho and it sounds intriguing.

7:42 pm

Babbler

barbk-- it's gorgeous! do you know The No 1 Ladies Detective Agency books? They drink it a lot in that. I call it "rubbish" tea, as I don't know how to pronounce it!

7:42 pm

Charm

And for the truly adventuresome, try WHITE tea - not (or very slightly) oxidized, so it retains the best antioxidant power. Very delicate flavor.

7:43 pm

mich

Im originally from south africa and it is a hugely popular tea over there, they call it rooibos, which is the africaans word for red bush

7:43 pm

Babbler

White tea? That's one I don't have in my collection.........

7:44 pm

mich

pronounced "roy" bos/bush

7:45 pm

Charm

I get my white tea from Stash tea, but Republic of Tea and Culinary Teas also sell it. I think most big dealers offer it.

7:45 pm

Babbler

mich-- ahhaaaa! now I can impress my friends...... : D !!

Babbler

ho6 is a plural of ho5
which lo4? I have lo4/5, lo4/4 and lo4/7
so5, plural of so4

8:01 pm

cbr1965

Babbler - it is lo4/4 - my last word - you guys rock - I should have checked all my plurals before asking for help but I'm anxious to finally finish one!

8:03 pm

Babbler

cbr-- then you want crazed.
hang on, the proper definition is : Any of several fish-eating, diving birds of the genus Gavia of northern regions, having a short tail, webbed feet, and a laughlike cry

Only 5 more to go, yea!!

8:15 pm

Jera

I'm sure sc5 & sc6 (prob a plural) will be forehead-smackers...

8:17 pm

Babbler

jera-- no they're not. they are 'close your eyes and see what comes up' ........!

8:18 pm

Babbler

sorry-- that's not a clue.

8:19 pm

Jera

Ye gods I hate those

8:20 pm

Babbler

jera-- it's a type of chilled soup, and its plural. I hadn't heard of it.

8:20 pm

Jera

I need da5, da4, sc5, sc6, & sh5. Help!

8:22 pm

Babbler

sh5/18 or sh5/22?
da words are either what babies call their fathers and the plural; or the lower portion of a wall or room and the plural.

8:25 pm

Babbler

for the sc5 and sc6, think of derogatory slang for lower class; uneducated, ignorant people, and put an 's' at the front of it........

8:27 pm

Jera

I need sh5/18. Hmm, I'm not up on my derogatory lower class names..

8:28 pm

Babbler

jera, are you in the uk? it's the latest buzz word!
you want plural of sh4/8

8:31 pm

lianakate

O, its true then! About tea drinking in the British Isles..I never saw so many commentaries about tea in my LIFE..now I want some..In the south here...they drink iced tea..loaded with sugar..

8:32 pm

Babbler

I've had american iced tea. it's lovely! it's not the same over here......

8:33 pm

Jera

Nope, I'm in the US, but the UK qualifier narrowed it down. Thanks! Now I just need da5 (not fathers) & da4 (not run fast)

8:35 pm

Babbler

jera-- you want: The lower portion of the wall of a room, decorated differently from the upper section, as with panels

8:39 pm

Jera

Still need da4/8... not run fast... is that the chilled soup?? that search was too broad

8:40 pm

Babbler

ahaa! take the last two letters of the word for run fast, and swap them around......

8:42 pm

Babbler

sc5 and sc6, chilled soup definition: A chilled soup made with sorrel, onions, lemon juice, eggs, and sugar and served with sour cream

8:42 pm
