harpjane

I'd say it's a bit obnoxious, Mr. P. But it's too early to tell....It went very quickly for about ten minutes, then slooooooooowed way down.
12:31 am
LeslieAnn

t7/28 (i know people are posting 9's but it's the longest one i've found yet!)
12:33 am
sprite

Morning dear gang!
I like that, LeslieAnn, we need the 7s as bad as the 9s!
12:35 am
sprite

S7/48 now that's a word I love :)
12:35 am
LeslieAnn

i got that one right away sprite! good clue!
12:37 am
sprite

:D
Don't think it's ever been in a grid before. About time, right? ;)
12:39 am
harpjane

Does the se 7 build off the se 6/33 & 36?
12:39 am
LeslieAnn

ha, and i thought it wouldn't be in any words, just a sad three-letter combo. kept trying to put "ie" or "ite" on the end, and turns out, those aren't words.
12:39 am
sprite

Could be, don't have them yet. It builds from my favorite S3.
12:40 am
harpjane

My best guess is we're talking about the same word.....
12:41 am
LeslieAnn

oh ok i found one of the 6's, jane. yes it does. the most.
12:42 am
harpjane

Figures!
12:44 am
sprite

A 6/33 can never be the 7/48, for sure! :)
12:45 am
melissamay

a9/102. I think that's the highest scoring word I've ever seen on a grid!
12:46 am
LeslieAnn

ah, also a related a 7/48 (who also can never be s 7)... if people don't have these words yet they're probably pretty annoyed...
12:46 am
LeslieAnn

ooh, good one melissamay!
12:46 am
sprite

Nice one, melissa!
12:47 am
melissamay

Thanks! It made me pretty happy.
12:48 am
sprite

S8/40 compound, tried it just for fun and it turns out to be a word. It is not a boat.
12:49 am
sprite

S9/54 is the plural!
12:50 am
cybernan

Half way -- going to call it a night -- it's been a long day :)
12:50 am
sprite

Sleep well, nan!
12:50 am
melissamay

Nice odd one, sprite! Thanks!
12:51 am
sprite

Or perhaps I should say it IS a kind of boat...
12:52 am
melissamay

So it is! There truly is a word for everything in English.
12:53 am
harpjane

sprite you are truly a tease.....
12:54 am
sprite

You are both so right :)
Harpjane: it sounds like it isn't a boat, but in fact it is. Does that help?
12:54 am
cybernan

Had to stop and get the s 8 & 9 combo -- thanks, Sprite.

Good night, all
12:54 am
LeslieAnn

goodnight, nan!
12:57 am
LeslieAnn

113... enough for me tonight, too! good night all.
12:58 am
dalmatian5

Wow, you guys are so good at finding the big ones! Congrats!
12:59 am
harpjane

I"m sure it will come to me in the morning. good night!
12:59 am
sprite

Night LeslieAnn, night harpjane!
12:59 am
melissamay

Night Leslie! I think I may have to crawil off to bed too...and ponder those Ts that Deb found.

(And it's always nice when I manage to be on when you are, Sprite.)
1:00 am
melissamay

"Crawil" is what you do when you are very very tired, of course. And goodnight, harpjane!
1:00 am
sprite

Sweet dreams, melissa! Enjoyed your company too :)
1:01 am
melissamay

Thanks, sprite.

(By the way, you posted a poem a while back that I sent to a friend, who loved it. I love when you post poems.)
1:02 am
chic

Gee, I'm not seeing boats or anything else 'cause my eyes are closing.... nite, all. Later.
1:03 am
sprite

Thanks! :)
I love sharing. Good to know it travels on :)
1:04 am
melissamay

I'll repost to thank you and for those who missed it. Then, I'm really off to bed!

It All Comes Back To Me

Not willing to be vicious,
I lost my voice.

Not wanting to be foolish,
I lost my courage.

Averse to being led,
I lost my way.

Unwilling to be like them,
I forgot my name.

Remembering now
is blessing enough.

Waking up groggy
is still waking up.

why is FEST never accepted? It's regular dictionary word!
1:12 am
sprite

Not in my dictionary. Only as suffix -fest. But I tried it too... couple of times ;)
1:13 am

Has anyone tried the Spanish version?
1:14 am

I think it's time for bed. I've tried to type fetish 3 times now. It's still not there, heh. G'night all.
1:20 am
sprite

LOL! Sleep well... I think 'fetish' was banned by the A8/50 campaigns, sorry!
1:26 am
Blaze

hello hello what are we in for tonight ??
1:29 am
sprite

Hi Blaze! Some really nice words to find.
1:29 am
Blaze

It seems to be sliding pretty good right now....
1:32 am
sprite

I am down to 19 and they are nasty, but so far it went smoothly!
1:32 am
Blaze

all in a day Sprite....
1:35 am
sprite

In this stage the stats panel is such a big help!
1:36 am
Blaze

That is a big truth.... I really like the stats panel that we see in Pro..... and BJ's list is a real time saver ....
1:37 am
dalmatian5

It is great to jump in and find words but when it gets to the end of the puzzle BJ's list is a lifesaver!
1:37 am
sprite

Don't care much for the BJ list, that gives away too much to my liking. Almost never go to babanon. But when I hit those last few brick walls, I do love the panel. AND the clues in the log, of course :)
1:38 am
corpsvalue

can i get a clue for the a9/102 please?
1:39 am
Blaze

there are some days when I am super stressed that Bj's list just keeps my brain functioning...LOL
1:39 am
dalmatian5

The log clues are great - some people express themselves so well. When I get to where I can do the puzzle without BJ's help it will be a big accomplishment.
1:40 am
sprite

A9 = plural for A7/60: ornament that conceals joints between tiles on the roof.
1:41 am
sprite

Things you secure before those joints :)
1:42 am
corpsvalue

Thanks all!
1:46 am

Got to run off to take a shower. Back later, good hunting in the meantime :)

Griffums

Woof how goes it?
2:06 am
Blaze

Woof Woof not too bad... Hope all is well with you...
2:07 am
Griffums

Holy cannoli there are some long words in this!
2:07 am
Blaze

Yes and I can not see any of them.... LOL
2:08 am
Griffums

I saw one right off the bat, but then I checked the stats panel. Heck, when I show up at 11pm it's not because I really want to be challenged... :)))
2:08 am
Blaze

I hear ya Griff
2:10 am
Griffums

oops... the long one I saw isn't a word. I mean it IS a word but babble says no.
2:11 am
Blaze

Yep Yep Yep.....
2:11 am
Griffums

I hate this game.
2:11 am
Blaze

Only the stupid head words....
2:12 am
Griffums

Yes. I do like the bona fide, legitimate, and otherwise entirely righteous words.
2:12 am
mari

Morning all - how many words today please?
2:13 am
Griffums

176 wds
2:13 am
Blaze

Four nine letter words.... owie
2:14 am
mari

Thanks
2:16 am
Griffums

Dang, I just saw another great 9-er that isn't there...
2:20 am
Blaze

79 to go but must depart to curl up in bed....
2:20 am
Griffums

'Night blaze - see you tomorrow!
2:21 am
Angelsong

69 words left to find. not too bad, I guess.

Night angel!
2:43 am
mrpresident

No way I am finishing this without BabAnon!! And it isn't up yet!!!.... boohoo!
2:44 am
Griffums

It's a long slog for sure!
2:46 am
mrpresident

I have tried typing transexual about 5 times now... my husband is getting worried...!!
2:46 am
Griffums

:))))
2:47 am
Griffums

So far my big sense of accomplishment is that I got all the H's. Start small, I say.
2:47 am
mrpresident

.... that is a funny story in my household actually!
2:48 am
Griffums

I'm listening!
2:49 am
mrpresident

well... my boyfriend (now husband) asked me to marry him... I said I had a confession!!!...... well..... he says "Are you going to tell me you were once a man?"..
2:49 am
Griffums

Boy, they do have some large leaps in logic, don't they?
2:50 am
Griffums

.......so what was your confession?
2:50 am
mrpresident

Griff... my confession was, I was still living with my ex-boyfiend when we started dating!!
2:51 am
Griffums

A girl that keeps her "options", um, open...
2:52 am
mrpresident

...we were broken up and all, but I couldn't afford to move!!... my ex is my best friend... and my husband best friend too!!
2:53 am
Griffums

Hey, that's better than I have it - all of my ex's hate me! The feeling is incredibly mutual. Finally - something we can really share!
2:53 am
mrpresident

LOL!!
2:56 am
mrpresident

My husband and my ex-boyfriend met for the first time just before the wedding, and they are now best of buddies!!
They go to dinner, go out and play pool, won't tell me what they talk about... MAAKES ME CRAZY!!
2:57 am
Griffums

Yeah, that's kinda creepy.
2:58 am
Griffums

...for about a second, until you realize they never actually talk about YOU.
2:58 am
mrpresident

how true, how true! I am not that interesting!!
2:59 am
Griffums

No, *they* aren't that interesting.
3:00 am
mrpresident

No brain, no pain, so sane, no blame!
3:01 am
Griffums

There ya go. Now I realize I don't know either one of them, but would be willing to bet they have never really dished about you. That would be die of embarrassment, fall through the floor kinda stuff. Must be bad enough standing next to each other in the men's room...
3:02 am
Griffums

<small woo-hoo> I got the I's...
3:03 am
sherb

hi folks :D ...just here for a little gentle babbling before I go out for the day...
3:04 am
Griffums

hi sherb!
3:05 am
mrpresident

3:05 am

3:08 am
mbrb2

hello all, i was just wondering if someone would explain BabAnon to me please.....
3:08 am
Griffums

Hmmmm. I think in that case the "oops, you stupid idiot" message should be accompanied by little horn toots. I think I will make that sound from now on.
3:09 am
Griffums

Hi there - BabAnon is a gathering place to exchange personal messages and also where BrandyJack posts a lists of daily stats for the puzzle, as an aid to solving. Today's list, however, is not posted yet.

3:53 am
trishtrash

one of the things I've noticed since playing Babble is that differences between British and American English are far fewer than I would have expected... at least in writing...
9:06 am
Sherylr1961

a2z is blocked here, i don't even know what it is like.
12:48 pm
hurshy

the other ch7 is an alt spelling of a sort of sauce - like maybe you would have a mango ch*****
12:48 pm
periwinkle

I don't understand why is a-z blocked where you are? It is a great site where you can look up words with just the first two letters available
12:49 pm
hurshy

i live at a boarding school - lots of things are blocked - i don't always know the reason. it can be irritating though, as a faculty member, i don't know why they don't have separate blockers for students. i can't even order victoria's secret products online!
12:50 pm

hurshy, thought that was what the 2nd ch7 was but can't seem to spell it to be accepted

2:01 pm
bunnyvicious

Billie, bab anon works wonders. Knowing how many points there are to a word helps. The definitions are linked to the words with the question marks beside them.
2:02 pm
Angelsong

how about cartoon characters for icons?
2:02 pm
bunnyvicious

We did the super heros and villians, but cartoon would be cute too!
2:03 pm
Haz1558

Billie, first of all don't worry too much if you find it difficult. Lots of the words are not in common use and we therefore rely on some help.
The first port of call is Babbler's Anonymous - see the link on the right hand side. If you go to general, then stats, you'll find a list of 2nd letters and values to help us know what we're looking for. Other aids include www.a2zwordfinder.com which lists lots of words. The other way of finding words is to ask for clues.
2:03 pm
tbear

Way to go...bunny....why are you crying hun??
2:04 pm
bunnyvicious

Also Billie, once you've been playing awhile, you learn alot of the common, but no so common words. They appear over and over.
2:04 pm
bunnyvicious

My eyeballs hurt!!
I don't know why I found this grid so horrid today! tears of relief and joy...
2:05 pm
Haz1558

The other thing to remember is that this is supposed to be fun - so don't get too stressed out. Some of the players are a lot older and a lot more competitive. Go at your own pace.

2:09 pm
Angelsong

billie, I'm fairly new here. what I did was to go to BA and look under How-tos. There is a link called Toolbox; if you open that link, there are several very helpful tools you can use (links to dictionaries and such.) I collected all of these resources, plus links to the rules and stats pages and put them all on a personal webpage I store on my hard drive. The page opens in my browser. That way, everything is just a click away.

2:18 pm
Haz1558

ch 8/50 - strange word! Take your ch4/6 (bottom of your face) and add the fly that causes a tropical disease, then pluralise.
2:19 pm
bunnyvicious

or plural the 6/24 above it
2:19 pm
cybernan

ex 6? -- I know how it begins (4/9) and I think it must have a latin ending, but still can't find it!
2:33 pm
Haz1558

It has a latin ending - it begins with the ex but then becomes an anagram of tune.
2:33 pm

3:08 pm

sorry but i did not understand the se 8 and se 9 clue... may i have another hint, please.... thanks
3:09 pm
hurshy

i was saying that if you have the se4 and se5 that go around the 8 and 9, you may think that se8 is a compound of se4 and some other four letter word, when in fact it is a compound word made of the first three letters of se4 and a five letter word.
3:09 pm
hurshy

if you don't get that, well, ocean + locomotive
3:10 pm

se= ocean + choochoo

That's a tough one munner. It's a stage direction meaning two or more actors leave the stage at the same time. It does not use the 3rd vowel.

Good evening/afternoon/morning all, depending on where in the world you are. Well, this has been quite an 'earthy' grid - a good thing for a Taurean like me. Yes, the words came easily. However, some hours ago, before my evening meal here in UK, I said I had one word left to find and I would be back to find it. HUUMPH! Came back to find my dearly beloved boyfriend had found it for me. 'I've finished your grid,' he said.

Now, if that isn't grounds for ripping out the last page of the book he's currently reading (and probably the next 2 he intends to read) then I don't know what is!
9:00 pm
JoJoFunLvg

Jac: Just the next time he is really into a book, and can't wait to get back to it ~~ hide it. Then he will know how you feel tonite.
9:01 pm
musicmom

Hi Jac. Ugh that would be irritating.
9:02 pm
Jacula

Hi JoJo. Yes, you're right. I could never do anything so sacrilegious as tearing out a book page (unless it was a really bad book).
9:03 pm
Jacula

Hi MusicMom. Yes, it was rather.

BTW, my last word was the last st5/10.
9:04 pm
musicmom

I don't know if I have that one or not. We are watching a friend's two year old and he is currently "helping" me with bab anon list. He is currently across the room showing it to my husband.
9:05 pm
Jacula

MM - you might be surprised at the words he may find for you!
9:06 pm
musicmom

He probably monkey types better than me.
9:06 pm
Jacula

Last st5/10 - A thin, narrow groove or channel.
9:08 pm
musicmom

OOOO thanks - No I didn't have that one.

JoJoFunLvg

Thx Jac, got the bone ch***.
9:13 pm
mslars

Thank you. but that is the first se 5.
9:14 pm
Jacula

LOL gumpunk re the bottom of the face things.

Well right below those are a very weird single and a plural way of spelling 'stiff, flowery curtain or upholstery material'.
9:15 pm
Jacula

Sorry! 5th se5 is the 'It's been posted' se4 word above with the 3rd vowel at the end.

Hi everyone,'

9:24 pm
musicmom

My eyes want "stint" to be in the puzzle today. I bet I have typed it 50 times.
9:25 pm
Jacula

MM - someone else, can't remember who now, has been trying on 'fishnets' since they first set eyes on the grid.
9:26 pm

Mr. P: Glad to have you back chatting.
9:34 pm
JoJoFunLvg

Musicmom: It was dreadful today. Woke up this morning at 5:30 because our bedroom was shaking. Couldn't sleep after that. Lots of wind and rain, but no down trees on our property, or weren't out of power either, which was really surprising. It is about over now, so will be able to see the SB game.
9:35 pm
musicmom

That's sounds horrible this morning. Glad things should be calmer for tomorrow. And very glad you didn't lose power.

9:57 pm

9:58 pm
mrpresident

take the tr5/10 add 3rd vowel then 2nd vowel, then throw in a 'nt' at the end for good measure

ch8/55 is the plural of ch7/40 and is an alternate spelling of that east Indian salsa?
10:20 pm
