it is obvious that some at the flip are more acquainted with the game than others. i love the clues when i need them...and i love to give clues when someone else needs them. i didn't know that only the professionals needing no clues were allowed to play for the first hour. i'll watch my log in time from now on

i have no issue with clues either, no matter how early, but some here will get their noses out of joint over it - it's up to you wot u decide to do with that info
12:55 am
cybernan

It is just that some players like to see how many words they can find without clues in the first hour. Traditionally only the 4 or 5 longest words are called (alpha numeric only). The rest of us do not find it a hardship to respect the wishes of those who like the greater challenge. The reason this game is so popular is for the friendly chat, the supportive group and the fact that everyone tries to fit it.
12:55 am

I don't think there any rules as have been intimated here, apart from a general consideration that some people play Babble differently from others, and that it behoves others to take that into account.

I feel like I am a newcomer as I have just found about this 1st hour convention! I'd agree with BabbleR - perhaps the 'conventions' could be written into the Help above. There would be an issue with the first hour being 'reserved' for non-clues anyway as we are from so many dfferent countries

I really don't understand why you can't shrink this part of your screen, virtually removing all chat, until you are ready to look at it....

i am offering this from my own standpoint...i obviously do not have the extended vocabulary of many who are here and do not feel threatened in anyway by clues or "called" clues.
1:01 am

because most people still like to chat girlfriday
1:01 am
helenkeller

i like erda's suggestion, shrinking the chat, or removing it, we all have different time constraints, if you want to speed-babble, then don't bother looking at the chat, if you can't do that, then go play tangleword, you get not time to chat there :)

1:02 am
Erda

amen, girlfriday!!!
1:02 am

actually...a called clue is just as much of a giveaway for us to find a new word as the definition sometimes...so the only issue seems to be that cyborg clued a couple words that were already "called" by someone else.
1:03 am

Morning all! I've been listening to what's being said. I like the clues. The only time I've got to play is from the flip - before the world starts moving - and I wouldn't be able to finish without the clues. Surely there's some way we could all accomodate each other?

1:05 am

personally i don't mind the tr9/60 stuff - but when it gets to giving the whole word away, it is somewhat bothersome - it takes away any challenge at finding words which i think is kind of the point of the game

What on earth have you done or is this an ongoing problem?
4:48 am
Haz1558

spanner - I woke up a week ago with an extremely sore lower back, no apparent cause. When it didn't get any better I sought help! It's what used to be known as a slipped disc, but hopefully with exercises and various things it should get better slowly.
4:50 am
spanner

Ouch, bad luck Haz. Give it time and mother it a bit...(my daughter slipped a disc turning over in bed...well at least thats what she told me...)

9:14 am

i first saw him as mr. parker in sense and sensibility, haz - so i thought it was odd at first but then i got used to him as house
9:14 am

9:14 am

9:14 am
stidmama

no -- chase is far too young for me! House...
9:14 am
GraceM

He'll always be Stuart Little's dad to me. No one thought he was crush-worthy back then. Must be some women just like jerks!
9:14 am
raelite

he really was great in Black Adder though....no one plays a stoopid prince like Hugh Laurie...
9:15 am
Haz1558

He's been in lots of things - all comedy up until now.
9:15 am

well chase isn't too young for me :) :) :)
9:15 am
pabtrek

i liked him in stuart little

yeah, that's exactly what i was going to say pab! so much better than sappy paula and wishy-washy randy
9:20 am
hurshy

the only thing i find weird is that sometimes i think someone in the final rounds sang a particular song quite badly and then he says they did great - that is unnerving.

Chase, is he the one that House wrote a scrip from his pad and had him suspended?
9:23 am

That's why I like to watch TV ;)

9:24 am

I bet! at 5:30 I gave up on sleep and decided to get the furnace going (it's normally on a timer) in case the power went
9:27 am
stidmama

so far still online, but not overly optimistic!
9:28 am
hootowl

I have a craft room for the first time in years and I keep moving stuff around to fit it all in. Found some stuff and now it's missing again! Chase is the aussie and previous episodes set him up as not trustworthy. I don't understand this current line. Seems like cop harrassment should be chargable.
9:28 am
raelite

yeah, I'm expecting the electricity to go anytime...the winds must be at least 50km outside
9:28 am

It's a sunny 75 here with a nice breeze :) Will be that way all week, yay!

how nice, hoot! I love having an "office" (most of my work is art), though at the moment it is still not put together from the skylight episode! *fuss fuss*

yes, it's a good thing House and his cohorts aren't bound by that pesky reality thing
9:30 am
hootowl

Cops like him give cops a bad rep
9:31 am
pabtrek

what bugged me is the cop was accusing house of being a bully, when he is a bigger bully than house
9:31 am
hurshy

it IS a good thing... i want entertainment, not reality. reality is borrrring
9:31 am
raelite

and over rated
9:31 am

i dunno, i'd say they're about equal-size bullies
9:31 am

Well the show is not reality. How many patients do you think docs get that keep changing symptoms?

10:32 am
CadFan

oh yes, oats would be good
10:32 am
hurshy

i'm a bread crumb fan myself
10:33 am
bunnyvicious

I have bread crumbs, but they have italian seasoning in them. I'll try the oats.
10:33 am

hurshy

...i would do anything for love, but i won't do that...
10:35 am
bunnyvicious

I guess I could use the crums, I usually empty any jars that have very little left into a meatloaf, it's kinda my "clean out the fridge" meal.
10:35 am
evanonut

yah hursh, cause you should use bbq sauce
10:35 am
72 Temple Owl

and i don't eat salsa any other way - go figure - but it has peppers and onions and tomato which i do use in meat loaf
10:35 am

10:35 am
72 Temple Owl

11:22 am

since when is the king the executioner? kings don't do the dirty work. meatloaf songs never make any sense.
11:22 am
smooth_pappa

oi! The R, S, and T list is a bit dizzying.
11:22 am
hurshy

you know the prefix pab? like women can get o****perosis as they age?
11:22 am
DRBERNABO

yes, but they are high energy and help with babbling, house cleaning, and grading (not necessarily in that order)
11:22 am

oh my gosh i am so prejudiced, i cannot believe i just thought to myself, "house cleaning? but you're a male!"
11:24 am
smooth_pappa

wow! was that a little house on the praire reference I just saw? Haven't thought of that in decades!
11:24 am

but the books are better
11:25 am

oh doc, don't go an reinforce my prejudices now by minimizing it
11:25 am
smooth_pappa

yeah, my mom used to read me those books when I was really little
11:26 am
DRBERNABO

Just yesterday my wife said if she died she would make sure the kids made me sell the house because I would never keep it clean, so I'm pretty sure I'm reinforcing at least one sterotype here
11:26 am
hurshy

my mom read them to me when i was 6 and as soon as we finished i said "again!" and she said no, if you want to read them again you have to read them yourself and that is how she manipulated me into reading my first chapter books.
11:27 am
hurshy

for which, naturally, i am now grateful.
11:27 am
DRBERNABO

Never read them. My mom made me read "Mary Poppins" so I would know why the movie was wrong.
11:27 am
smooth_pappa

apparently, she didn't have any trouble getting me to read... she would read to me, and then (I am told) I would try reading on my own, alone...
11:28 am
bunnyvicious

I've never read Mary Poppins, didn't even know there was a book, but I can tell you that the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter movies are wrong, wrong, wrong!
11:28 am
smooth_pappa

but the downside of that is that I've not learned to pronounce all words correctly. Since I wasn't really instructed, I have been a phonetic pronouncer, and even still I struggle with that sometimes
11:28 am

Series of Mary Poppins books. The new broadway show is the songs from the movie but more like the original stories (which is why it is nicknamed "Scary Poppins").
11:29 am
smooth_pappa

IE until last year I've always pronounced "gamut" like "GamOOt"
11:29 am

Pappa, it's OK, I'm from Texas, nobody speaks correctly here, you can re-locate :)

HA! good one bunny... My family is Backwoods tennessee, so I fit in there, too. ;)
11:30 am
smooth_pappa

lol Hursh, you should have heard the first time I trie to pronounce Caliope. lol
11:31 am
hurshy

well if they are going to make things so counterintuitive, it really isn't our fault, is it
11:31 am
bunnyvicious

There ya go! I don't think I've pronounced a "g" on the end of an "ing" word...ever!
11:31 am
smooth_pappa

that's what I say! you know... spanish is so much easier... everything is pronounced just like it's written. lol same in italian, too... well... almost

ahhh... well, that quip I made about the R made me think of a scene from an episode where they were having the olympics, and either a japanese won a bronze, or it was a japanese anoucer with the line " a shamful, shamful bronze" :)

I have so enjoyed babbling! I feel blessed to have found this site; folks are delightful and it keeps me from tossing & turning ...
11:54 pm
VolleymomDee

what is melatonin?
11:56 pm
smooth_pappa

melatonin rocks, dee! it is an enzyme ( i think enzyme) that your body produces to make you sleepy at night. That drowsy feeling. You can buy supplements over the counter that are completely natural. It only stays in your sytem for 4-6 hours, usually much less than 6, so you don't have any hangover feeling in the morning, it's so much cheaper than a prescription, and helathier
11:56 pm
smooth_pappa

infact, they are looking at it right now in other uses, even as a potential cancer treatment. it is a powerful antioxidant, and supposedly helps the immune system, as well.
11:57 pm
VolleymomDee

do you know if it would interact badly with prescription rheumatoid meds?
11:58 pm
smooth_pappa

I don't think so, since it's something that is produced naturally anyway... but I'm definitely not a doctor either.

sometimes tylenol pm or xtra strength tylenol help, but I hate taking any more meds than I have to
