cybernan

Thank you, Brandyjack

12:11 am

HockeyGuy

Finished the Y's.

12:11 am

JBsAnno

I agree, ren, but my stomach's at the delicate stage, so sometimes just cheese pizza alone is enough to send me to the tums bottle. Twizzlers on top (or the side) would send me over the edge!

12:11 am

jaydee

licketySplitAUS

mica... I can't read! sorry

12:49 am

LeslieAnn

jeff, this is a web site for scrabble but it works well here: http://www.a2zwordfinder.com/s crabble.html
If you put in the first few letters (e.g. "bo") you can scan through all the words that start that way. helps a bunch.

12:49 am

Jeff8280

lol thanks lickety but i have br 6/24 i need help with bo 6/24

Jeff8280

OMG THANKS BLAZE FINALLY SOMEONE HELPS

12:53 am

Debs40ish

I mean the babble puzzle...<<shoves hand on mouth>>

12:53 am

cybernan

Fairly tame, I think, Debs -- at least so far!

12:53 am

Blaze

Jeff at the beginning of a puzzle you need to wait for people to catch up...... we all work differently....

12:53 am

Debs40ish

Morning Jeff.. I just woke up..lol

12:53 am

GreyWoulf

only 140 Debs -- only been working about 20 mins and already 1/2 done :)

12:53 am

Jeff8280

12:54 am

DarleenMB

bo6/24: a narrow country road

12:54 am

LeslieAnn

um i thought i did... did you get to the site?

12:54 am

Jeff8280

yea but what is rack letters and word pattern

12:55 am

micamonkey

47 more
wow today's breezy

12:55 am

Blaze

http://www.a2zwordfinder.com/w ordlookup.html
Jeff this is where you want to be in a2z

12:56 am

mrpresident

Jeff... I would have to say waiting until everyone else has caught up would be :)) before asking for clues...
(... just my POV)

12:56 am

LeslieAnn

don't put anything in rack letters. change match where to "start of word" and the min. length to 4. change to sort by length. then in "word pattern" put your first two letters, and press go. it should show a list then.

12:57 am

Hugabugs

Leslie, there's a much easier way than that in a2z

12:58 am

Debs40ish

Dont wait for me to catch up... I just got here...lol

12:59 am

Debs40ish

How Hugs?

12:59 am

Jeff8280

how do i get a flag beside my name?

12:59 am

LeslieAnn

oh wow, just found after someone else mentioned it... d'oh :)

12:59 am

Hugabugs

Jeff, you need to join the Babble Pros

12:59 am

Debs40ish

You get a felt tip and draw one!......lol

1:00 am

Blaze

jeff you need to register and pay to be a Pro babbler then you will also get a stats grid for the puzzle.

1:00 am

LeslieAnn

yup, that's what i did

1:02 am

Debs40ish

Hugs... Whats easy way?

1:02 am

Jeff8280

so brandyjack gets his stats from being a babble pro?

1:03 am

Blaze

No BJ has a program to give us the second letter stats...

1:03 am

LeslieAnn

jeff just out of curiousity how old are you (and i think brandyjack wrote a program to get those stats)

1:03 am

Hugabugs

At the a2z home page, Under partial letter lookup.... begins with.... enter the first 2 letters (or more) click go and that's it

1:04 am

Jeff8280

why do u think i am immature leslie?

1:04 am

Debs40ish

Jack sounds like my daughter.....

1:04 am

Jeff8280

i ame new to this keep in mind leslie

1:04 am

Debs40ish

Cheers Hugs :-)

1:04 am

Hugabugs

We've all been new at some point Jeff.... and we're a friendly, patient and eager to help lot... :o)

1:05 am

LeslieAnn

with the pros, you can look at their profile, but not with non-pros so i just wondered

1:05 am

micamonkey

hey who says age has to do with immaturity!
as a young person i feel ... miffed :P

1:05 am

Debs40ish

^^^ Is friendly...just insane!

1:06 am

micamonkey

im just a monkey

1:06 am

Jeff8280

but still why do u want to know my age leslie? do u think i am immature or something?

1:06 am

Debs40ish

My daughters 15 going on 28!

1:06 am

Blaze

I am almost 55 and can be very immature at times.... I where purple as much as possible too....LOL

1:06 am

GreyWoulf

Jeff -- there is no insult intended behind Leslie's question -- just curiosity -- our players hit all ages from 9 on up :)

1:06 am

LeslieAnn

oh good lord just drop it. forget i said anything.

1:07 am

Debs40ish

I've seen that film Blaze... Purple people eater!...lol

1:07 am

Debs40ish

I was going to ask where you were from Jeff... but won't now....lol

1:07 am

micamonkey

*hug leslie*

1:07 am

Jeff8280

I am from Georgia Leslie and I am 19 years old. I am a Gemini (rare to find).

1:08 am

micamonkey

why are geminis rare to find?

1:08 am

Debs40ish

I was married to a Gemini... and have 2 daughters and a mother who are all Geminis... :-/

1:08 am

mrpresident

welcome jeff from Georgia (gemini *rare* & 19)

good to have you here....

now let's babble

1:08 am

micamonkey

and erm georgia the country or georgia the state?
*hmmmm*

1:09 am

Debs40ish

Ermm not to appear thicker than norm.. but why are Geminis rare?

1:09 am

GreyWoulf

Thank you, Jeff -- this info also helps to guide us when we are giving clues because some references we use can be age dependent ;)

1:09 am

Jeff8280

Georgia the State in the USA

1:09 am

micamonkey

so again why are geminis rare? *puzzled*

1:09 am

GreyWoulf

LOL, mica -- I always forget about the country :D

1:10 am

Blaze

gw age dependent or not some times I just don't get it....LOL

1:10 am

Jeff8280

oh so u calling me stupid greywoulf?

1:10 am

Debs40ish

<<<<Looks at Mica.... not only me then....lol

1:10 am

jaydee

With you there Blaze!!!

1:10 am

mrpresident

jeff... .grey is very respected here...

BEHAVE!!

1:10 am

micamonkey

GW: lol well lets just say recently i was trapaising(sp) around the atlas quite a bit :P

1:10 am

GreyWoulf

I am with you there, Blaze -- the other factor in clue interpretation (that we have no control over) is brain fuzziness :D

1:11 am

Blaze

Okay talking about clues is there a clue yet for the ey 7/36

1:11 am

micamonkey

debs, lol no not just you
but i find it amazing ur daughters are all gemini! wow!
then again, my sister's inlaws have kids all born on the same day on different years. its amazing

1:11 am

Hugabugs

Blaze - it's a compounded word... when something is not pretty to observe

1:11 am

Jeff8280

I am just saying don't get me started cause I can snap and it won't be pretty I don't like being joked at I have had enough of that in my life.

1:12 am

72 Temple Owl

blaze - it hurts what you see with...

1:12 am

Angelsong

:) this grid is making me hungry...

1:12 am

Blaze

got it a s usual after asking... thanks

1:12 am

GreyWoulf

Blaze -- when a building becomes old and dilapidated it becomes an ey7

1:12 am

Q

don't have a clue for ey7, but i found it as soon as you said there was one, and it sure is ugly!

1:12 am

Debs40ish

Jeff calm down.... Lifes too short to be so angry

1:12 am

Debs40ish

Bit like me Woulf.....lol

1:13 am

micamonkey

thanks Q! lol i got it after reading what u said too haha

1:13 am

harpjane

Do we have a troll with us tonight?

1:14 am

Jeff8280

and I am not stupid I graduated High School with a 3.95 GPA and i currently have a 3.7 GPA in college and I am a continuing sophomore. I am just new to babble and so I have a lot of questions. Thankyou very much for understandng this and have a nice day!!!

1:14 am

Blaze

No harpjane.... Jeff is new and getting used to us. and our banter.... all is well....

1:14 am

GreyWoulf

Debs -- that's not fair to say to me, I can't properly argue against that statement without a pic to reference -- but based on your presence here on the log, I would be willing to go out on a limb and say that you are not being fair to yourself at all :)

1:15 am

micamonkey

erm one's intelligence is not reflected by their accomplishments
im sure there are very smart people who dont have good grades

1:15 am

Debs40ish

I'm 3ft 2" 20stone and work on church roofs!.....lol

1:16 am

Debs40ish

I used to think I was intelligent till I got married!

1:16 am

Blaze

actually I thought I was quite brilliant until I started playing babble and got stumped many times...... it evens the playing feild.

1:16 am

micamonkey

debs.... you are... an elf?!
gosh i feel like im playing jeopardy haha

1:16 am

Jeff8280

Jeff is a fun, caring, and loving guy if you are nice to him. He doesn't take jokes about him very well.

1:16 am

micamonkey

think im still pretty dumb

1:16 am

Blaze

besides shall we get out our "crwths" and play a little tune ???

1:17 am

Debs40ish

Na more of the gargoyle variety......lol

1:17 am

Griffums

1:17 am

micamonkey

hi griff! :D

1:17 am

Blaze

1:18 am

72 Temple Owl

*arf*

1:18 am

micamonkey

gargoyles... gargoyles...

hmmm name me one friendly gargoyle but not from quasimodo

1:18 am

jaydee

BTW. Its already Dec 31st here, so can I wish all you nice people a very Happy and Healthy New Year,and good Babbling?

1:18 am

Griffums

That's a question I ask myself almost every day.

1:18 am

GreyWoulf

But gargoyles have their own gothic beauty about them, Debs -- therefore you have put the lie to your own statement ;)

Ha! Point to the woulf! ;D

1:19 am

Jeff8280

I really do appreciate everyone's help though.

1:19 am

Blaze

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND ALLL.......

1:19 am

Griffums

I'm with GW. No knocking gargoyles. I have a Rottweiler gargoyle sitting here on my desk and he's beeeyootiful.

1:19 am

Jeff8280

now im getting back to babbling

1:19 am

Debs40ish

Me Mica....lol

1:19 am

micamonkey

happy new year everybody!!!!!!!

1:20 am

Jeff8280

i have 89 words

1:20 am

LeslieAnn

Jeff, quite honestly, you're being too sensitive. The people here are about the nicest you'll ever meet. Don't think there's any hidden agenda or making fun. There's not, and that's the end of that.

1:20 am

Debs40ish

It's Dec 31st here too.... 7:20am Happy New Year to everyone... May all your hopes & dreams come true in 2006 :)x

1:21 am

Griffums

Oh. I just looked at the stats. Another tweakin little puzz. Doesn't Babble know it's the weekend? And that I'm dying to evade my to-do list?

1:21 am

Jeff8280

Leslie you little mouth is what I am talking about ---you bother me

1:21 am

GreyWoulf

Jeff - you are very welcome to the Babble fold... Thank you for calming down --- the most important thing to remember about us is that we never say anything with intent to hurt or offend (life is too short for that) --- merely to maximise the joy that is Babble!

so do you want a (*hug*) or a (*handshake*)?

1:22 am

micamonkey

geez jeff! what did leslie do to you?!?!!

1:22 am

micamonkey

lol does that mean u missed yesterday's 300 words puzzle? :p

1:23 am

Debs40ish

It's something inbuilt in Geminis I think........two people in one!

1:23 am

micamonkey

erm that was for griff
geez im spamming
ok im gonna stop talking

1:23 am

Griffums

:) mica - I saw it but I really had to pay attention to RL so I had to bow out.

1:23 am

HockeyGuy

Just passed 100. :)

1:24 am

GreyWoulf

12/31 -- 2:22 AM here in Lansdale, PA ---

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ONE AND ALL!!!!

LeslieAnn

Debs40ish

1:29 am

GreyWoulf

1:31 am

Hugabugs

Aww Geez... that's so sweet of you GW *wink*

1:32 am

Debs40ish

I wasn't in it Jane!......lol

1:32 am

micamonkey

i think im thinking about a gargoyle that erm... alive in the night and stone in the day...
a family of gargoyles
or something like that
it was a cartoon for sure

1:33 am

Debs40ish

What have I started!.....lol

1:33 am

harpjane

I hope we don't forget to take full advantage of the Leap Second. The last minute before midnight, GMT, will have 61 seconds. That will be 4:00 p.m. here in Montana. I will probably be just leaving a wedding, and preparing to ski into a cabin for the rest of the weekend. Hope I don't forget to savor the second!

1:34 am

GreyWoulf

OK -- last 2 cents then I'm broke -- mica you are thinking of the 'Gargoyles' cartoon where half teh voice talent came from Star Trek teh Next Gen and the gargoyles were named after NY city stree names except their leader who was called Goliath ;)

1:34 am

Griffums

I dunno but BOYSEN should be a word.

1:34 am

Blaze

I thought it was too a berry or something ??

1:34 am

Griffums

I have an extra shotglass ready for that second! Time waits for no woman, oh wait, yes it does.

1:35 am

72 Temple Owl

griff - if there are yes men, why not yes boys?

1:35 am

Griffums

It's my favorite and now I have to call it an invalidberry, which is more troubling the more I stare at it.

1:35 am

micamonkey

lol griff, thats what i hoped too

1:35 am

Griffums

good point temple!

1:35 am

micamonkey

GW: YES YES YES!!!!!!!!
they were hot! :P

1:36 am

Blaze

I have 68 words to go but must depart for reality... see you all in the tomorrow....

1:36 am

micamonkey

1:36 am

micamonkey

nite nite blaze :)

7:28 am

pinecone05

ty peri...that is very cool hydra...I've never been on radio or TV

7:28 am

tbear

Wow cool year end......next year wide open to possibilities then.....

7:29 am

hydra

I'll sound as if I'm boasting now but I used to edit a romantic fiction mag and I was on quite often as an agony aunt. I loved it and wish i was still doing it. The appearances yesterday were connected to the changes in the Adoption Laws in the UK. I found my adopted daughter this year. We get on brilliantly and I'm so happy!!!

7:30 am

tbear

My mum has done radio and tv but not me.....unless you can count a radio show quiz where you get 5 seconds to answer the question AND WIN!!!!! YAY

7:31 am

hydra

What did your mum do? Is she famous?

7:31 am

tbear

That's lovely Hydra....somewhere out there I have a younger half sister who was given my name....I have never met her and I'm not even sure if she knows about me....Weird

7:32 am

pinecone05

hydra -- that sounds like you were on radio/TV for a positive piece where the law changed in a good way. Great way to end the year!

7:33 am

hydra

Ever thought of trying to trace her? My daughter and I traced her dad and she has TEN half siblings. Phew! He really put himself about.

7:33 am

tbear

My mum is a published author...educational/political book plus fiction and an expert in her educational field....Tough act to follow but watch this space

7:33 am

hydra

Yes, pinecone, it was a great way to end the year. Just about my best year yet.

7:34 am

hydra

That's interesting, Tbear. I have been published too. Mostly children's fiction. Not Harry Potter, worse luck.

7:35 am

periwinkle

can't seem to find the ne4/5, is it an obvious one?

7:35 am

tbear

obviously so did my dad.......no I won't stir up a hornets nest...she's got my name and aparentely looks like me....ONE of me is enough....AND she's younger...Only kidding but won't do it,incase she was never told

7:36 am

hydra

ne4/5 - change a letter in need.

7:37 am

hydra

Yes, tbear, you never know if people have been told. It was a huge shock to my daughter's dad's family. They didn't know. Hope you get a bestseller one day! Must go now. HNY to all.

7:37 am

pinecone05

10:39 am

oldhousejunky

gr - sounds like response you make to a BAD pun and the plural of same word

10:39 am

mari

GR sounds like a very tender part of the body + plural

10:40 am

Cathyar

10:54 am

Angelsong

I need to understand this. on the stats page, there is a set of grid boxes that are steadily going gray. the bottom row is completely gray; the row above is gray except for the N, which has a 2 above, inside the box, and a 3 below. Can someone help?

10:55 am

gwenski

Angel, there are three words that begin with that letter N, and you have so far found two of them.

10:55 am

spellit

Grey means no more clues to find; 2 over 3 means you have found 2 out of 3 available words

10:55 am

Jera

You have found 2 out of 3 N words... one more to go (from that particular N)

10:56 am

Jera

LOL, do we love to help or what?

10:57 am

bunnyvicious

any clues for the bo 7/36

10:59 am

Jera

10:59 am

Haz1558

The bo 6 sounds like Maureen.

10:59 am

spellit

11:00 am

Angelsong

11:02 am

Thanx to you also spellit, and I know it has been mentioned before, but with 55 points out of a possible 60 from their first 20 matches, I can't see anyone catching the Mighty Blues now!!!!

spellit, I've actually been supporting the Stamford Bridge Brigade for 20 years now (I'm nearly 28), but with living in Cambridgeshire, I don't get the chance to see them play (unless they are drawn away against the likes of Ipswich or Norwich in the cup!!!)

Still, at least no-one can call me a glory-hunter....

11:09 am

FMitch

I have learned that if the word looks like it ain't in the grid - type it in anyway cos a lot of the time it is there!!!

11:10 am

Haz1558

That could be the start of a sentence for every babbler 'I have learned that....' I leave you to fill in the rest...

help me understand: on BrandyJack's stats page for each puzzle, at the bottom is a list of letter combos in the order they appear in the grid? so would I just use that list from the beginning of each puzzle instead of just finding words randomly? I really am trying to improve; I now only need 27 words to finish...which is a big step up from when I began two days ago.

11:48 am

doxy1lover

good morning everyone, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYBODY!!!!!

11:48 am

Cathy

Happy New Year to you, too, doxyflower !!

11:49 am

Haz1558

Angel - you could use that method of following BJ's list. Everyone has their own style. I tend to find as many words as I can myself, then use the list to fill in the gaps.

11:49 am

bunnyvicious

I start by finding them randomly, alot of words build off of eachother, and then use BJ's list to fine tune for those ones that elude you.

11:50 am

Cathy

Angel -- I use the same method Haz just described. And it's always so cool to me to find I've gotten a letter or two covered all on my own :)

11:50 am

tbear

lotti.....I'm celebrating and helping at the pub with friends and you?

11:51 am

Angelsong

I really enjoy this game, and appreciate your help. Maybe someday I'll be good enough at the game to write a tutorial.

11:52 am

Haz1558

Angel - enjoyment is the most important part of the whole thing. Find a method that suits you and enjoy discovering words you never knew existed!

Vicuna and Maureen, thanks so much. have all the B's. Now need to finish the H and S words.

1:58 pm

Vicuna

I haven't gotten that far yet, so it's hit or miss whether I'll have any of those.

1:59 pm

Maureen

Glad I could help. Sometimes you just can't see the words for looking and other words are mighty peculiar!

2:03 pm

periwinkle

looks like I am also missing and er4. I have the god of love and the sea bird. what am I missing?

2:04 pm

periwinkle

nevermind, found the seabird with an e at the end.

2:04 pm

Vicuna

one er4 is one seabird, another er4 is multiple seabirds with an alternate spelling

2:07 pm

periwinkle

I am missing the second he512 and the first ho5/16.

2:10 pm

Vicuna

he5/12 - alternate spelling plural of he4/5
ho5/16 - let's just say: having ho5/12

2:12 pm

Maureen

Glad you said the clue for the ho word, Vicuna. I couldn't think how to say it politely!

2:13 pm

Vicuna

I was going to reference Sir Mix-a-lot's "I like big butts", but I wasn't sure I knew the lyrics quite well enough, or that anyone else would! Ha ha!

2:13 pm

periwinkle

Vicuna, it is the first ho5/16 that I need, sorry

2:14 pm

periwinkle

which I just found (first ho5/16)

2:14 pm

Vicuna

Peri, that is the first one, I'm pretty sure! The second one comes right after the ho6, and is an alternate spelling of it. Is that what you need?

2:16 pm

Vicuna

Ah, wait, I see now: my clue, in an attempt to be polite, could apply equally to both ho5/16. I guess that wasn't so helpful! So much for being euphemistic.

2:17 pm

periwinkle

need just 3 words, one H and 2 S's need to look at BJ's list again.

2:17 pm

Sherry...rain has been constant...and because of our altitude we have the pleasure of low clouds that might as well be fog...and all this wind is making our giant oaks shed their branches which is scary...what a mess!

done! Thanks!

Happy new year. And enjoy that leap second! It's only 24 minutes away, according to my clock!
