hello gd morning to all
does any one knows why dr _god appears in the final scores of yesterdays puzzle if he only has 1 word, and me 44 words???

12:12 am

Sarj35C

yeh i don't know but i had like 80 something and i wasn't on the top score list!!!

12:14 am

nenaluli

brakkeflower, letter count is the amount of words that have this certain number of letters. 1st letter count is, for example "silt" 1st letter is s, and there are 4 letters. But there are (I'm making this up) 4 letters that start with the letter "s". I hope I made sense.

12:14 am

drregnier

sorry... how do u spell "analisis"???

12:15 am

DarleenMB

with a "y" and please don't post words

12:15 am

kimberlynn

analysis

12:15 am

bobo

with a y

12:16 am

drregnier

whats the problem, analisis is not a valid word!

12:16 am

Niamh

12:17 am

12:20 am

brakkeflower

so is letter count (not 1st letter count) the number of times that a letter actually appears in the correct word list?

12:22 am

brandyjack

Yes. Most time it is a waste of nadwidth, but sometimes it can be quite tantalising to get the one word with a Z in it . Or the U, or the Q, etc.

12:23 am

KJS

If I log out do I lose my list? Or do I have to leave the screen up all day?

12:23 am

Sarj35C

how come sometimes i don't get points but the word is still posted on my word list?

12:23 am

brandyjack

List is saved automatically. No losses.

12:24 am

brandyjack

You may have a bad connection. Dialup, or perhaps torrent in the background killing your uplink bandwidth.

12:49 am

BobX

it's "a" - how do you keep words like that in your head? I certainly don't/can't/won't

12:49 am

elmer

brandyjack, i got a t 7 40 from your clue, but don't seem to see the 8/55, any other hints?

12:50 am

BobX

12:51 am

mypooh

do you just keep going or what

12:51 am

stillcrazy

how many words are there?

12:52 am

MaggieDoodles

ok, I got it by looking up clubfoot in the dictionary

12:53 am

elmer

There are 278 words, you go as long as you want or until you run out of time.
I hate to run out of time typing the last word in, it makes me crazy.

12:54 am

BobX

I just googled "having a club foot" and found it that way..but I still don't know how you get there to begin with ... maybe I should go get my scrabble dictionary

12:54 am

yankette

how do you end up finding all of those words then? i consider myself fairly intelligent, have 87 words and am almost at a loss... =)

12:54 am

Flowergal

Wow - I feel so dumb - all my words are 4 or 5 letters...

12:54 am

srpcep

This is my first time too.

12:55 am

brakkeflower

got all the W's.

12:55 am

ratboy

anyone have a clue on the 7 or 8 letters yet?

12:55 am

dsee

i looked up clubfoot also, but the word it gave me doesn't work here

12:56 am

Saddy

Hey BRANDYJACK
your hint t8/55 - Having a clubfoot... the word is a seven letter word

12:56 am

brakkeflower

ma 7 36 - many capital cities

12:56 am

dsee

i added a letter to the word from the dictionary, and it worked this time

12:56 am

catka

it won't accept my t word for having a clubfoot ;(

12:56 am

BobX

pluralize pluralize pluralize

12:56 am

brakkeflower

Capitol - not capital

12:57 am

dsee

make it -eds and it will work for the club foot clue

12:57 am

MaggieDoodles

the word for having a clubfoot is ta/6 and you can also pluralize it

12:58 am

catka

ok yes thanks...I finally figured it out

12:58 am

dsee

no, its capitol, capital refers to a building

12:58 am

Saddy

aahh thanks.. didnt know you COULD pluralise that one

so any hints for the 7 lettered words?

12:58 am

elmer

Thanks bobx and brandyjack, i had pluralized it don't know why it didn't take. typed it at least two times, third times a charm i guess.

12:58 am

dsee

i said that backwards

12:59 am

brakkeflower

actually, no, Capitol building, not capital building

12:59 am

dsee

capitol refers to a building, capital a city

1:01 am

brakkeflower

Capitol can refer to both a city and building. Capital is like K vs. k or it's money/assets

1:01 am

brakkeflower

ok, off the soapbox. Playing is more fun.

Sorry..Lola...Where do I go after clicking yesterday's puzzle?

House guests finally gone! Could today be the first time I have time to finish?

5:50 am

Haz1558

Kingfisher - in case you think that we know all the words, think again! Lots of us rely heavily on clues from each other, plus a useful websit or two.

5:52 am

lola100

kingfisher- lol! It seems a bit daunting at first but once you are hooked and start to play regularly you start to recognise the odd words as well as the ones that are used in normal conversation. There are also tools we use and we help each other on the log with clues (and moral support!). Try www.a2zwordfinder.com for the *nonsense* words ;)

5:53 am

lola100

Hi Alleyn :)

5:54 am

Thanks Guys...Well....Here I go....Object is to reach 1000 pts...then I am gonna quit.....

6:09 am

hydra

I do the same with lunch!!!

6:10 am

Hydra..Isn't breakfast the most imp meal if the day.........Yippee..got another one!!

6:10 am

lola100

mamajake- my family have been forced to learn to cook for themselves! And do their laundry. And clean up after themselves. And buy food. :)

6:10 am

SamS

OH MY! I'll never find that many...

6:11 am

hydra

Nah. For me, the most important meal is
dinner. Breakfast is a banana and some bio
yogurt. Maybe some grapes, too.

6:12 am

lola100

SamS- sounds worse than it is! Just do whatever is fun. If that means only 10 words and some chat on the log then great. If you have the time and are up for the challenge you'll find loads of friendly people willing to help you :)

6:13 am

I just told the kids it was about time they found an apartment (they are in high school), they interrupt my social life (this is it, lol).

7:38 am

shorty

how do u know how many a's b's c's etc.

7:39 am

Hugabugs

Some folks have programs that generate the stats... the Babble Pro's have grids that tell you how many words generate from each letter, and they'll add up manually and post them.

7:40 am

Bobsta

Shorty: usually someone posts the letter count really early in the day. try scrolling back to around the start of the chatlog.

7:41 am

7:59 am

thanks Uneaixoise...dont suppose you have a wee hint for that one?

8:00 am

jakes-mum

Dbourd there is a button above the puzzle which will take you to yesterdays results

8:04 am

Jacula

willlsssonnn - The 1st letter count is the list of how many words of each letter there are.

8:04 am

jdog

why can't people do their own work without stats and hints. It takes the fun out of it if everyone finds them all. I found 74 words, but i found them myself, and i know what they all mean.

8:05 am

Atalante

people do jdog .. and then ask for hints to help with the words they don't know

8:05 am

Uneaixoise

ep8: The middle part of a play

8:05 am

Jacula

jdog - If you don't want stats, hints or tips you can hide the chat log.

8:05 am

EvaNadine

the stats and hints help you find the words youve never heard of before -- and in babble there are tons of them.
the general rule of the chat log is if you want help read it, if you dont want to see the hints, dont read it.

8:06 am

begrery

if you dont care about the chat or the hints, you have the option to hide the log

8:06 am

beware

this is why there is a hide log command

8:07 am

EvaNadine

thanks Uneaixoise -- thats a new one for me!

8:08 am

Uneaixoise

ditto for pretty much everyone except one our players who's a theatermeister!

8:08 am

jakes-mum

Has anyone got the stats for the other 8 word which isnt E8/50?

8:08 am

jdog

fine...i need hints for about 200 words that i don't know and won't ever use in a sentence. there should be separate scores for doing it without any help.

8:09 am

DasAlbatross

Yes yes, we realize you're better than us jdog. If we're bothering you just ignore us.

8:09 am

EvaNadine

no need for drama on the chatlog now, remember it is just a game.
the more you play, the more words you learn.

Oh good grief jdog! If you are so upset with the chat log, then why do you keep adding comments? Click on hide log and go on about your business.

8:16 am

shorty

well evadine then hide it so u dont have to read it

8:17 am

jdog

chill out...there's no drama. it's a chat log, not a cheat log. Thanks, shorty. My point exactly. You don't have to read mine any more than i have to read yours.

8:17 am

Gwen

I only have one ap5/14

8:18 am

jdog hit the stats command if you are so interested in how you are doing

8:18 am

i can't get the ap5, and I'm seeing double already

8:19 am

jdog

i know that...you missed my point.

8:19 am

jdog

so there's 2 ap5's. Great. I don't even have one.

8:20 am

beware

your point was adressed

8:20 am

Jen

Boaz, in architecture, it's a different spelling of the ap part of a church.

8:20 am

jdog

then what's your point?

8:20 am

ap5/14: The point of greatest or least distance of the orbit of a celestial body from a center of attraction.

I don't have the other one yet.... : (

Hi Dachef - I've already got my coffee hooked up... it seems to be working for me.

10:19 am

Denny

It's getting better, but i think i will still need to limit my intake of Babble!! It's like a drug!! I managed to cut down my coffee to one a day so anything is possible!

Not so much a code - just shorthand. a/7/40 is a word starting with a, 7 letters, 40 points.

the list at the beginning with all the statistics shows how many words of each length (4 through 8 in this puzzle), how many start with each letter, and how many times each letter exists in the final word list.

Anything else?

10:32 am

martuxa84

example : wa 5/34
wa=initial letters of the word
5= amount of letters in the word
34= total points

10:32 am

That should cover it. Thanks.

people were complaining earlier that clues were being posted on the chatlog...and then people kept asking the ame questions over and over again without reading the log...
my head was spinning!!

10:38 am

ToeSockMonkey

clue on ep 8/50? anyone?

10:39 am

EvaNadine

Ep7 "The middle part of a play that develops the action leading to the catastrophe"

10:43 am

there there!

Hi Lola!

10:44 am

refinnej

evanadine - After I started reading the chat log, I wished I had never started today! But, now that I've started I feel the intense need to keep trudging along. Within a day or two things should settle back to normal, with a few new players who quickly get acclimated and the rest deciding this isn't really worth it after all . . .

10:45 am

EvaNadine

i love having new people join the game, but it really gets under my skin when someone joins a group *then* complains about the way it is run. you look at it first, and if you dont like it, you dont join.
of course i want people here, but not if theyre going to complain about the way things are...
:/

10:45 am

refinnej

Ershutt - We were all newbies once. But most days you don't have what feels like thousands of them all crying out in all directions at the same time. ;) Either you'll stick around and feel like an old pro in no time, or you'll decide it's not for you, but either way, don't feel bad.

10:46 am

EvaNadine

yes, with friends now.
thats why i was asking for the trumped-up champs earlier lola.
;)

10:46 am

lola100

Er, chessy? I don't think there is an eo8

Hi - i know this may have possibly been posted earlier today, but my pc really doesn't like it if I show all messages, so i apologise if i am repeating an earlier request but could someone give me a a clue for the other 8 that is not ep?

Good morning all. Pretty big grid today. Guess I better get started. Tea, anyone?

Hey Deutsch, it's a heads down one today :) Would love a cup, been drinking Lola's champagne earlier ...

11:00 am

a's done finally and my last one was the clue earlier about the baby i just couldn't see it and then whoosh...ty all for that earlier clue...

11:01 am

Dachef

Deutsch, I'll pass on the tea, but if you could give my IV coffee bag a refill it would be much appreciated.

11:01 am

Jacula

ta7/40 - Google 'clubfoot' and make word past tense of the word you find. Failing that, short way of saying 'thankyou' plus one of the things that surround your mouth plus the name of that horse called 'Mister **'.

11:02 am

chessy, you have to watch the champers. *pours tea*
Dachef, I take it you want regular? *refills bag*

Ok, Deutsch this link will get you to some. I had them on my computer, but without a link so I just googled "painted hands." Simple and they are great.

I can't do this puzzle because I'm realllyyy in my classroom and just wanted to check the state of Babble. Tschuess!

http://www.greena pple.com/~jorp/amzanim/oddsend s-hands.htm

renee see my clue for begrery from earlier...it is a 6/24 that you are missing...

how do u know how many of each there are? like how many f words or l words or whatever?

11:08 am

rolin

renee... the second 5/14...whats the second letter?

11:08 am

refinnej

You can learn a lot by browsing the whole log. ;)

Click either "prev 50" or "show all messages" at the bottom of the log . . .

11:08 am

Deutsch

thanks, artlady!

11:08 am

renee.fuzz

thanks baggo! can't show all. my computer throws an absolute fit. bad computer.

11:09 am

renee.fuzz

rolin : ma

11:09 am

begrery

renee, make sure you click hide icons before you try to show all.

11:09 am

refinnej

I think for most people who can't "show all" you should be OK clicking "prev 50". Also, then once you are in the previous 50, the log doesn't auto-update anymore, so the screen is completely stable. It's a really great way to read through the log.

11:11 am

renee.fuzz

oooh. thanks! it works now!

11:11 am

TofuTheGreat

why doesn't 'hopi' count as a word?

11:11 am

11:12 am

refinnej

Hopi is capitalized - it's a proper noun. Babble rules (explaining what types of words are accepted) can be found near the top of the page.

11:13 am

lola100

tbear, lol! Yeah, he's prepping for that interview.

11:13 am

sclarke

why is it telling me I've already used a word, when I haven't typed in any words yet??

11:13 am

TofuTheGreat

Ah, thx refinnej

11:13 am

basicdez

This is really cool. Glad that I found this page. I think I am hooked although, I am hardly as talented as all of you. :)

11:14 am

renee.fuzz

yes! done with the m words! only 105 more to go!

11:14 am

refinnej

Tofu - One thing to remember, though, is that some words that are proper names are also regular words, so it may seem inconsistent at times . . .

11:15 am

renee.fuzz

refinnej, you wouldn't happen to be named jennifer by any chance? :)

11:16 am

refinnej

Indeed. It was a childhood nickname. :)

11:17 am

Mellabela

How do you know when you have found all of the words of that letter (ie. al the words for the letter L)??

11:17 am

renee.fuzz

cute!

11:19 am

mella...go back through the log there is a post of all the letters and the number of words that they begin with..if you go pro you get a chart that tells you when you have found all of them...

Hello, everyone -
I'm having a really hard time today with the grid freezing up constantly. I haven't dared to load Firefox, which Anj had suggested a while ago, because I'm at work, and afraid to mess up the computers there. Do any of you who babble at work have any advice/experience pro or con? I'm getting desperate. Thanks!

11:24 am

baggo

jrs..hide the icons or just hide the log....its freezing a bit cause there are more people playing right now..

11:24 am

Deutsch

Dachef, I'm switching you to decaf! ;-)

11:25 am

Sheila Rae

jrs--mine keeps freezing too. Maybe that just means this is a really popular site. :)

11:25 am

Gotta go (again! aaargh!) see you all later :)

11:26 am

lizbar01

This site was mentioned on msnbc this morning. I imagine lots of people are checking it out.

11:26 am

Dachef

jrs - try hiding the icons. From time to time the grid will become really slow - usually because of the large amount of words you have found. Without the firefox software you're better off just having a really fast broadband connection. If thats not an option, try switching off the log for a whle - the computer will slow up because it is refreshing the log every 2 mins or so.

11:27 am

jrs

baggo - I've already hidden the icons, but to have to miss out on the log as well ... boo-hoo-hoo-hoo, too disappointing! well, when needs must - thanks.

11:27 am

Sheila Rae

does anyone have the P's finished? share the list?

11:27 am

sgoethe

does it tell you how many words you need for each letter? or just how many letters in each word

11:27 am

refinnej

Mary - od5/12

jrs - You can still peak in on the log from time to time. :)

11:28 am

sclarke

anyone know the stats for today, like how many words, etc?

11:28 am

Deutsch

SheilaRae, I saw a particial list of p words earlier in the log

11:29 am

refinnej

sclarke - That is almost always posted very early in the log. Today it has also been re-posted many times. You can find it easily by looking back through previous pages.

11:29 am

sgoethe

OH MY it accepted the word TITS EEEEEK!

11:29 am

Sheila Rae

thank you, I will look back for them.

11:29 am

baggo

sclarke they are posted earlier in the log....the list tells you the number of words for each letter and also the number or 4 letter, 5 letter...etc..

11:29 am

Mary

refinnej, thanks.
I too am freezing up and I've had my icons hidden forever. I'm thinking it's because of the heavy traffic.

11:29 am

refinnej

sgoethe - It is not considered OK here to post words in the log.

11:29 am

Deutsch

That would be partial

11:30 am

sclarke

thanks refinnej :)

11:30 am

Sheila Rae

D--I knew what you meant :)

11:30 am

sgoethe

OOOOPS i was on yesterday and someone posted along list, i wasnt aware it was not acceptable to do this. please forgive :o(

11:30 am

Judi

Good day, all. Ungodly long puzzle today er what?

11:31 am

begrery

hello, goes with the ungodly long chat.

11:31 am

refinnej

sgoethe - I didn't see that yesterday (thankfully!), but from the sounds of it, yesterday was pretty rough around here.

It's one thing to post hints, but what would it be like if people just posted the answers in the log. No point in playing, or at least in having the log. :)

11:32 am

EthieKid

my second time playing and I've only got about 48 words. Any clue for the big ones, like ep 8 50 ??????

11:38 am

Hi, gang!! I dont know whether to go to library..or play some of this game..ACK..Looks like a biggie

11:39 am

i dunno what the bat wing clue is for the T8.

1:12 pm

kvity

CadFan--any other hints on the si 4 7?

1:13 pm

duberry106

sw 5/16 means the wod starts with sw, has 5 letters and is worth 16 points

1:13 pm

zugleigh

revenge of the

1:13 pm

markbowers7

when someone says sw5/16, it means that there is a 5 letter word starting with sw*** that is worth 16 points

1:13 pm

Miyavi_fan

the letters at the front are what the word begins with, the first number is the number of letters, and the last number is the number of points...so fe4/4 would begin with fe, have 4 letters, and be worth 4 points

1:13 pm

Munner

MAMABEAR,sw 5/16 means that it is a 5-letter word starts with the letters "sw" and earns 16points based on the numbers on the tiles.

1:13 pm

Miyavi_fan

1:14 pm

duberry106

Hey Speed...dreams have been normal for me. Last night I dreamt that some guy told me to go and look at a rabbit. ONly it wasn't a rabbit, it was a duck, which then ate me.

CarolG - You have to visit the Temple of Babble at midnight on the full moon dressed only in lettuce, pray to the holy shoe, sacrifice a pork chop, and turn around 17 times without falling down. Or, pay $10.

Will any variety of lettuce do? Or, say, would spinach be acceptable?

2:25 pm

Dachef

torgone - your way sounds much more fun. Any particular type of lettuce?

2:25 pm

It's a word. Believe me, babble will throw up stranger words than that.

2:25 pm

CarolG

Hot bed of coals ??? Now you're talking...

2:25 pm

JBsAnno

But I did all those things (still finding lettuce) and wasn't even dizzy.
I guess I'll pay.

2:25 pm

CATHB

I know what you mean snowy - too big tonight for me even to think of half the words so its a toss up whether to try or just sit back and read the log instead...

2:26 pm

boreetos

torgone, i didn't know there was a choice.

So, there I was dressed in lettuce atop mount babble, holding a porkchop, looking for the shoe...and who should find me?
that's right, Anj and Lola, who told me the altogther easier although possibly less fun way to get a flag by my name.

2:26 pm

Mirage

Strange? That's the understatement of the day ... just from seeing what was there yesterday.

2:26 pm

kittybat

Which one is the holy shoe? Sneaker, loafer, or CFM stilleto heels?

2:26 pm

kerilp

So I see. And dirty ones, too- earlier I found the word that is slang for cow udders......

2:26 pm

JBsAnno

Torgone, what about the rubber chicken?

2:26 pm

torgone

Well, she just wants a flag. The icon on the other hand....

New babblers: when looking for words don't forget to consult your dictionary. The websites that provide wordlists are useful, but sometimes the answer is right there in print. Also, googling clues can be very productive. The dictionary, however, is a great starting point when you realize you need words that start with AE, for example.

That didn't make much sense to me, is there a different way of putting that??

4:50 pm

sclarke

as far as de 6/27, the last four letters sound like something you'd give to a dog, but change the first letter

4:51 pm

melbella, if you're a college student, think of a drink that college students make in large quantities, but change the a to another vowel and make it plural

4:52 pm

5:51 pm

5:53 pm

snowyowl

Did you want a cabin boy Dachef or to be one?

5:53 pm

lola100

dachef- you gotta make the food babe. These ladies are going to be hungry later....

5:53 pm

5:53 pm

5:54 pm

memememe

pi 5/14 -- in charge of an airplane

5:54 pm

I want to know where the line for these cabin boys are...I could use one for myself :)

5:54 pm

Karys

you're right lola...got the whisky and tonic...could do with some nibbles !

5:54 pm

Jacula

Note to newbies - Copy & paste the 3 parts of the list into 'Notepad' or 'Word' and then you won't have to keep scrolling back to check it.

5:55 pm

seoultaiji

Munner Pi 5/14 Your are a ----- if you fly a plane.
pi 6/24 some cars have a rack and ------ steering

5:55 pm

sclarke

memememe, apparenlty ta 8/55 is the plural of ta 7/40, but my computer lies I think

5:55 pm

Karys

who cruked ?...who...?....

5:55 pm

Mirage

for ta 8/55, make ta 7/40 plural (def: clubfooted)

5:56 pm

tbear

If cabin boys in short supply,try Cadburys Chrunchie Ice Cream....I am and it's gorgeous

5:56 pm

aprilgirl

i dont understand what these numbers and letters are!

5:56 pm

aprilgirl

the lists im referring to..

5:56 pm

Dachef

huh, stuck in the bloody kitchen again. Dont even know why I bother to go to parties anymore, <shuffles away mumbling something like "i'll show em" under his breath>

5:56 pm

Karys

sclarke....no it is right !

5:57 pm

Jadaoz

what is a clubfooted?
I have been thinking about it all day.

5:57 pm

seoultaiji

april, letters are start of the word, first number is the number of letters in the word, second number is points for the word

5:57 pm

sclarke

the letters are the first two letters of a word, the first number is how many letters there are in that word, and the second number is the point value for the word

5:57 pm

memememe

thanks for the tips, but I cannot think of another word for clubfooted for the life of me!

5:57 pm

cruked

oh you know that redneck in the white house...who was looking for a cabin boy

5:57 pm

nenaluli

what does clubfooted mean?

5:57 pm

Karys

now don't go to too much trouble on our behalf dachef

5:57 pm

sclarke

I know it's right, but the powers are conspiring against me, and not allowing me to enter it in

5:57 pm

lola100

dachef- if you make us tasty snacks I'll organise you a blonde in a bikini :)

5:58 pm

sclarke

mememe, try going to onelook.com and using their reverse dictionary feature

5:58 pm

Mirage

aprilgirl: letters are the first two for the word, first number is the number of letters, second number is how many points.
so ta 7/40 means the word starts with ta, has 7 letters and is worth 40 points

memememe:
take one ta 4/4 and add another way to say foot to the end

5:58 pm

speedfreak

Dachef / who cook Cabin Boy / eye candy

Welcome future addicts!

Claudia

6:22 pm

ok MamaBear relax, we are pro babblers (with icons) we spent $10 to get that which means we know how many words there are and by letter but if you go to the beginning of the messages there are people who post complete list.. even during the day people will repost complete lists (read Babble rules from top of post) scoring is ta4/8 means word starts with ta has 4 letters and is worth 8 points Good Luck

A tunicate is built like a barrel. The name, "tunicate" comes from the firm, but flexible body covering, called a tunic. Most tunicates live with the posterior, or lower end of the barrel attached firmly to a fixed object, and have two openings, or siphons, projecting from the other. Tunicates are plankton feeders. They live by drawing seawater through their bodies.

SmallChild

thanx jac

8:08 pm

SmallChild

did you ever know that you're my hero?...

8:08 pm

SunnFlower

spent a lovely day with friends, not joking can't not finish,does anyone have the final points score?

8:08 pm

Jacula

Smallchild - copy the 3 parts of the list to 'Notepad' or 'Word' on your computer. That way they will be easy for you to read on screen or print to read.

8:09 pm

Jacula

3465 Ferrari.

8:09 pm

SmallChild

i did that, thanx very much!

8:10 pm

SunnFlower

thanx jac, have you finished?

8:10 pm

DanSnu

jacula, how do you get the list to start with or do you create it as you find the words?

8:11 pm

Jacula

Ferrari - did you have the heavy rain today? I thought we were going to flood again. I had to rush round pulling drain covers off as a 'moat' surrounded us. Luckily, it worked! I had to change all my clothes though.

8:11 pm

Jacula

Finished this afternoon Ferrari. Any clues you want, let me know.

8:12 pm

thetigerdud

156points

8:13 pm

SunnFlower

we had a lovely day, went to a house right next to the Derwent,must have rained sometime though cos big puddles on the way home

8:14 pm

Jacula

DanSnu - Paid-up ProBabblers (those of us with flags, 'handbags' and avatars) get a stats list about 10 mins into the new grid. It tells us the total of words to be found, how many of each letter, which we then add up manually. It doesn't however give us the final points (you find that out when you finish) or the second letters and individual word lengths or points. This is something we build as we do the grid.

8:14 pm

SunnFlower

haven't fed all my words in yet will let you know

8:15 pm

DanSnu

Jacula, Thanks for the info!

8:15 pm

Jacula

Okay, Ferrari, I'll let you type 'em up first.

8:16 pm

lianalux

st 6/30

8:17 pm

Jacula

Are you saying you've found st6/30 or that you want a clue for it?

8:18 pm

lianalux

i found a sp 6/30

8:18 pm

thetigerdud

I need clues

8:19 pm

Jacula

st6/30. LOL.

8:19 pm

lianalux

I"m sorry st 6/30 for sure

8:20 pm

Jacula

Tigerdud - what clues do you need?

8:21 pm

thetigerdud

anything that would help I just started today I only have 160 points and 24 words

8:24 pm

Jacula

Well, TigerDud, I can't really go through all 278 words at random and give you clues for them. Try looking at the 3--part 2nd letter word list I posted a while ago and see where that takes you. After that, when you can be more specific about which words you need clues for, I'll be happy to help if I'm still around. I'm sure other Babblers will help you out if I'm not.

8:24 pm

Mirage

need help with the first two ma 6/24 and ma 5/14
I know one of the ma 6/24 is a plural for ma 5/14

8:25 pm

thetigerdud

ok thanks

8:27 pm

imalulu

ma 6 rhymes with a flavor of ice cream

8:27 pm

Bradley Hyatt

what is the most points possible?

8:28 pm

imalulu

Where can I download a good dictionary or word list for this? I tried downloading Enable, but didn't get much but some odd files.

8:29 pm

Jacula

A2Z wordfinder is a good thing to bookmark.

8:29 pm

JayNA02

I am horrible at this game...how do you guys ever finish these puzzles?

8:30 pm

Jacula

Full points for this grid are 3465.

8:30 pm

Bradley Hyatt

wow...92/869....a got a ways to go!

8:31 pm

Jacula

Mirage -
ma6/24 - mountain range on borders of Lesotho & S. Africa. Also the currency of Lesotho.

ma5/14 - plural of ma4/6 (supernatural forcee inhabiting a being, or power/authority.

ma5/14 - plural of ma4/6 (think whisky).

8:32 pm

lianalux

Jacula, any way to see the results from previous puzzles? all I see is the puzzle in the archives.

8:33 pm

Jacula

JayNA02 - experience makes you quicker at the grid. You soon learn how to bend your eyes in all directions and also what the 'weird' words to look out for are.

8:34 pm

JayNA02

i've gotten a little bit better at it, but some of these words I cant even imagine. I guess i need to expand my vocabulary!

8:34 pm

Jacula

Lianalux - click on the archives (any puzzle), then look at the list on the right of players and their scores, click on any player's name and it will give you their list of words.

8:37 pm

Mirage

thanks... got the mountain range one... now onto the other two

8:39 pm

Jacula

JayNA02 - expand your vocab by all means, just don't end up doing what many of we Babble addicts do - don't talk to your non-Babbling friends in Babblespeak, i.e. (in the pub) 'Would you like a dr5/20?' wh6/38 okay?' You'll get strange looks from them if you do! ;-)

8:40 pm

SmallChild

it's been fun guys, but i have to go do homework now. I may or may not be back. (I will probably sign on for the next puzzle later today) Toodles!

8:40 pm

Bradley Hyatt

po6/24- rhymes with a childhood staple

8:40 pm

torgone

Jacula - What a trooper you are!

8:40 pm

slink0605

I agree with you JayNa! The clues send me scrambling for Google search and a dictionary and another cup of coffee to keep me going!

8:40 pm

Jacula

'Bye, 'bye SmallChild. Some lucky kids in the UK have a teacher, who is a Babbler, who sets them this grid for homework!

8:42 pm

Jacula

I try, Torgone. I try. LOL.

8:44 pm

8:44 pm

8:46 pm

Jacula

8:47 pm

Jacula

(Anagram of 'snap it'!)

8:49 pm

ohromujici

Thanks Jacula.

8:49 pm

Jacula

Jennip - you must look properly and in all directions. There are 23 words beginning with 'a', 6 beginning with 'e', 5 beginning with 'i' and 6 beginning with 'o' There are no 'u's today but when there are there at usually 2, which sets me off humming U2 songs all day!

8:49 pm

Mirage

bugger... two m's left... ma 5/14 and its plural

8:51 pm

Jacula

Mirage - if you like to set fire to things, you have pyroma***. Also the plural, add an 's' .

10:18 pm

jujufruit

10:21 pm

Jacula

ep8/50 - The middle part of a play that develops the action leading to the catastrophe.

10:23 pm

nicolemarie

Finally! Thank you for the Mary and Joseph clue.

10:23 pm

Jacula

Sounds a bit like what gets engraved on a headstone, in plural.

10:23 pm

jujufruit

thx Jacula, never heard of that 1

10:23 pm

hethur240

tw 5/16 is a proper noun...so why not use spain?

10:24 pm

jujufruit

only 7 away from my goal of 100 words, not bad 4 my 2nd puzzle, great clues 2nite

10:24 pm

LuwandaHL

I'm at 82 words,997 pts. I'm excited and a nerd!!

10:24 pm

nicolemarie

I think that it's being used to represent a number

10:24 pm

Charm

I think they're using the "2" definition of the tw5/16...

10:25 pm

LuwandaHL

tw5/16 is also a depth measurement

10:25 pm

Jacula

hethur230 - no. The tw doesn't mean the author whos first name is Mark. It is an old word meaning 'two'.

10:25 pm

Seeka123

does anyone know what it means when it says NaN below my list of words where the score is suppose to be?

10:25 pm

jujufruit

any more clues for al7/40

10:26 pm

hethur240

i see now...thank you...still dont get the headstone/middle of the play one...i know what the headstone word is that it's supposed to be like but i'm just not making the connection

10:26 pm

Jacula

Seeka123 - it means you should press F5 to refresh your browser.

10:26 pm

Seeka123

oooh Thanks!!

10:27 pm

Jacula

Message on a headstone is an epitaph.

10:27 pm

Charm

AL7/40 is pl of the AL6/27 meaning 'having winged feet.'

10:27 pm

seoultaiji

juju it's plural of 6/27

10:28 pm

hethur240

i know that one...i just can't figure out the word it sounds like for the middle of the play

10:28 pm

xIxAMxNOxONE

whats allt he ep 5/ 40 stuff?

10:28 pm

Becoz

epitaph ain't on there!

10:29 pm

Jacula

It doesn't SOUND like any word for the middle of a play because it IS the word for the middle of a play. Not shouting, just can't do italics here and can't be bothered to * words either side.

10:30 pm

LuwandaHL

I like your IS clue.

10:30 pm

captainjim50

I keep on putting in the definition for clubfoot but it says it does not exist, am I spelling right?

10:31 pm

sheath18

al 7/40 means...the word starts with AL, is 7 leters long, for a total score of 40 points

10:31 pm

hethur240

so epitaph does not sound like the word for the middle of a play that we are looking for?

10:31 pm

Becoz

hahahahahahahaha!

10:31 pm

Jacula

No, Becoz - 'epitaph' isn't in today's grid. It was a 'sounds like'.

If you stop being confrontational, I might start giving you easier clues.

10:31 pm

sheath18

oops - I forgot letters is 7 letters long, leters is only 6...

10:32 pm

Becoz

aw, i'm just havin' fun...wasn't tryin to be confrontational, honest!

10:33 pm

jujufruit

thnx for al7/40 duh, brainfreeze:)

10:34 pm

Jacula

Okay teeanged person. Would have said 'dude' but my 18-yr-old daughter is looking over my shoulder and, if I say a word like that, or even type it, she'l probably swipe my head off.

10:34 pm

Jacula

*teenaged!!! ERK!!

10:35 pm

Becoz

I'm probably older than you think

10:35 pm

hethur240

thanks for your help, jacula. still didn't get it though. oh well. bed time!

10:36 pm

Jacula

How old are you then Becoz? 23? 36? Do tell. You can see my age by clicking on my profile.

10:36 pm

LuwandaHL

I'm stuck on al627. Why?

10:37 pm

Becoz

I've gotcha beat by a couple of years. Let's just say that we probably watched the same shows on the telly

10:37 pm

Jacula

al6/27 - An animal whose toes are connected by a membrane, serving for a wing, as the bat.

10:37 pm

LuwandaHL

al6/27

10:37 pm

jujufruit

LuwandaHL think "winged feet such as those on a bat" for al6/27 and its plural for 7/40

10:38 pm

Jacula

You're 50 then, I assume, Becoz? We might have watched same TV shows if you're in UK. Where are you?

10:42 pm

jujufruit

HELP, my stats didn't update when i added my latest word

10:42 pm

LuwandaHL

Okay, I finally gave up a googled it. Duh

10:43 pm

captainjim50

Why will this not take tali*** as the clubfoot?

10:43 pm

LuwandaHL

I kept ending it with ID.

10:44 pm

Jacula

Site blip, don't worry about it.

10:44 pm

captainjim50

What did you end it with to take it?

10:46 pm

Jacula

captainjim50 - because that word is not in the grid. Change the 's' o a 'd' and then add an 's' for the plural.

10:47 pm

jujufruit

thx jacula, not sure of my final score 4 2nite but i did end up with 101 words. well nite ya'll

10:48 pm

Jacula

Anyone who's having site probs right now, refresh your browers. Go into 'tools' and 'clear all'and then sign in again.

10:48 pm

Kim610

One of my lttrs disappeared from the grid- whats up with that

10:49 pm

Jacula

Badina

10:53 pm

LuwandaHL

I just hit 100 words. My second puzzle!!!

10:53 pm

Jacula

Indeed they are, Badina, should you click on any top scorer's word list. Like myself for instance, ahem! LOL.

10:53 pm

Ellocin

how many words are there in this puzzle?

10:54 pm

Dayners

278 words

10:54 pm

Jacula

278 words in total.

10:54 pm

Ellocin

wow....thanks...guess i won't be finishing this one

10:55 pm

Jacula

In the darlkness no one hears you scream, 'AAAARGH!'

10:56 pm

Armywifey

278 words? Well stick a fork in me cause I'm done! I only got 92 so far, but then this is just my second puzzle ever. Still.... I suck.

10:57 pm

Armywifey

and where would one find the number of words in a puzzle anyway, say if one of the grand-masters wasn't playing..?

10:58 pm

gaiablessings

this is my first (and last...i hope! only 'cause i have 2 babies here...) 24 hours and i got 139 words...many thanks for all the clues and especially for the plural winged feet one...i thought i had checked all my plurals, but, you know how it goes....night all! GL next time!

10:58 pm

clumsyprincess

10:58 pm

katrynwise

95 words today... my brain is mush... off to bed.. better than yesterday but no where near where I wish I were...

10:59 pm

Jacula

HO6/27 The theory that living matter or reality is made up of organic or unified wholes that are greater than the simple sum of their parts.

10:59 pm

Badina

thanks, i checked out yesterday puzzle

11:00 pm

clumsyprincess

thank you

11:02 pm

LuwandaHL

Does anyone have a clue for ap5/14

11:04 pm

Jacula

AP5/14 - Another word for the recess at the Eastern end of a church. Sounds like it should be a plural, but it isn't.

11:04 pm

Doogle

Hah! That Ho6 just happened to be my final word, and I finished the puzzle right before checking back in to the chat log. Whew - a tough one!

11:05 pm

Jacula

Well done Doogle. Champers for you.

11:06 pm

Jacula

Personally, I didn't think it was a tough one, even though Jamie may have meant it to be.

11:07 pm

LuwandaHL

101 words in 2 hrs. Have to get up a teach tomorrow so goodnight. It's been fun.

11:09 pm

Jacula

LuwandaHL - that's no bad score at all for a starter. Was it on paper on on comp? I'm interested to know how people see words best.

11:10 pm

Jacula

* meant OR on comp.

11:10 pm

LuwandaHL

on computer

11:11 pm

LuwandaHL

After teaching 10-year-olds all day, and loving it!

11:14 pm

Plebian

Hello Jacula,
Being a newbie but learning fast, I still have a question or two. I signed up for the Pro Statis, which certainly helped. Does Babble publish the list of words that they compiled so we can compare and discover the obscure words they may have listed? I've been unable to find same. Thanks for your help.

11:14 pm

Doogle

Jamie doesn't actually create the puzzles, Jacula. They're randomly generated from the exact tile set that ships with a standard Scrabble game, with the exceptions that there are no blanks and the Q is replaced with a lower-point-value Qu.

11:15 pm

Jacula

That's interesting. I'm never sure if I see more on the yellow tiles on screen or more from my own, hand-written grid. Mostly, as a writer of 48-years' of age, I get things down better on paper rather than computer, but sometimes, like this grid, it's more immediate and obvious in yellow! Not sure why that is, which is why I should have become a 'Cracker' (criminal psychologist). No insults intended to anyone by that last comment.

11:16 pm

idicyidikat

Jacula... yellow actually stimulates your brain and is easier on your eyes than white... maybe that's why you can "see" more words on the yellow tiles sometimes

11:17 pm

Jacula

Doogle - I realise that Jamie doesn't actually create the puzzles, or even solve 'em half of the time! (LOL.) But he can choose which size puzzle appears, should he so wish.

11:18 pm

Doogle

Really? Didn't realize that. I think he's still on vacation right now, though, so he's probably letting the gods of chance control things at the moment. ;)

11:19 pm

Jacula

idicyidika - you're right there! I'll print my babble grids out on yellow paper from now on!

11:20 pm

Jacula

Doogle - if he gets an 'SOS' from his former teacher, he ain't gonna ignore her! Nuff said.

11:20 pm

chixnlegs53

New bee here. Very addictive! Thanks to everyone for the clues, my second night playing and I only have 100 words to go. Less than an hour left so don't think I will finish but I have enjoyed reading the posts and the creative clues you pros leave, certainly helped my total word count.

11:20 pm

11:23 pm

clumsyprincess

11:24 pm

11:33 pm

Jacula

Badina - glad you enjoyed it and goodnight. Come back soon.

Plebian - Baggo just told you how to do it.

11:34 pm

baggo

11:35 pm

Jacula

Baggo - how did you get on helping with the hurricane thing?

11:35 pm

corih

I amazed at how many times I guess something is a word and it takes it... and I don't have any idea until I look at what it means

11:35 pm

Kimm

Thanks baggo.

11:35 pm

harpjane

OK. 100 words. Nice even number. I'm going to bed now. I can quit any time.....

11:36 pm

Plebian

Thx Jacula,
Sorry, I missed it. Thanks Baggo.

11:37 pm

Jacula

Yea, course you can HarpJane, just like the rest of us. Sleep a babble-free sleep.

11:37 pm

baggo

i did really well, after the first day or two, it was lots harder than i ever imagined. i still don't think that i have caught up either emotionally or sleep wise...the devastation was awful, and to see these people that all they have fits in a rubbermaid container was really hard..kinda makes me feel bad to be playin here.

11:39 pm

harpjane

OK. I just thought of one more word. THEN I can quit. Honest.......lucky for me the thing expires in 22 minutes.....

11:39 pm

Jacula

Baggo - don't feel too bad about that. 'That', unfortunately, is the way life hands out the cards.

11:41 pm

baggo

i realize that, which for my sanity i'm still playing..i really do love this game and the people on it.. i did think of you guys..my husband leaves next week to go and help some friends family's clean up...i'm very thankful for what i have...won't see me complainin about little things anymore...

11:41 pm

baggo

harpjane...run while you can...the new one will come up and you just wont want to leave....

11:42 pm

Jacula

am7/36 - any vertebrate mammaltht possesses an am6/24 durng embryotic development.

11:44 pm

Jacula

Baggo - the little things may tick us off but the big things will always stun us. But, that's life and what it's all about, I guess.

11:45 pm

Jacula

16 mins left for all the newbies to run for salvation. ROFLOL.

11:46 pm

baggo

rofl don't spill that wine before you give it to me...and yes you are indeed right!!!

11:49 pm

Jacula

I've run out of chardonnay, Baggo. Have cracked open other half's Merlot now (which he warned me not to) ROFLOL. Merlot okay for you?

11:54 pm

Jacula

So, Baggo, I can put the blame on you for drinking 'his' Merlot then, can I? Oh, I bow to your most wonderousness! ROFLOL.

11:55 pm
