am i the only one struggling with this puzzle today? at 1st i thought this puzzle would be easy with a few words to find but it is proving to be quite challenging.
4:31 am
Haz1558

It's because it's all individual words, some quite unusual.
4:31 am
sprite

pinkhat: it is a real struggler, we were just commenting on that. Lots of uncommon words that we only know because of babble.
4:32 am
Atalante

it sfunny, I dreamt we had a grid with 32 words today. I wasn't far off!
4:32 am
FMitch

It's a little grid but big enough to hide a French car in (or fruit).
4:32 am

Close enough!

The fruit, but not the car, FMitch!

another 6 is a flea. C6 start with eastern word for power, strength; + leave + vowel.

9:00 am
smooth_pappa

towards the bottom of this page, there are the "freinds of babble" links... in the center column is a link for "lickity's babble clues" it will give you the first two letters of all the words in alphabetical order, with the number of letters and points for each word... it's great for helping you find what you need
9:01 am
smooth_pappa

for example: HI 5,16... that means you are looking for a 5 letter word that begins with HI, and is worth 16 points.

Aha. I was picturing the black going down first and then filling in, but finishing with the black makes more sense. Anyway, it's gorgeous.
10:09 am
Atalante

I've always started from the black before, but it seems to make more sense putting on last, I've decided
10:10 am

Gives you more flexibility, I think, and also probably ends up neater.

Hi, Stid, and all end-of-the-year Babblers. I have had the best time with this little grid. I will take a personal (mini) bow for having monkeyed all of the really strange ones today. I was down to nine words, went to Lickety's List, and just went berserk on the keyboard. (This is not implying any real intelligence for the words that came out!) But, at any rate, FIREWORKS! Happy New Year to all.

A tip - if you are 5 weeks into trying to recover from a cold.flu type buggy thing, NEVER buy tissues with menthol & balm. I think it's the menthol in them that is giving me sneezing fits right now. Not fun when it's 3.29am and your partner, and you son are sleeping, and you've got up quietly due to hot flushes (flashes in USA)... and you're still waiting for your daughter to arrive home.
9:40 pm
LeslieAnn

also chort. it is a chortle that is cut short.
9:40 pm
echomira

does the game tell you when you finish? I thought there were 35 words.
9:41 pm
LeslieAnn

egads, jac. that does sound difficult.
9:41 pm
kalea

there are, ec4mira
9:41 pm
LeslieAnn

sometimes there are fireworks, echo, but not always for non-pro members. if you've got 35, you are done
9:41 pm
smooth_pappa

it does if you upgrade to pro, echo... but you are right... 35... you're done. :)
9:41 pm
Jacula

ec4/6mira - yes, it tells you when you've finished if you are a pro player.
9:41 pm
echomira

thanks!
9:42 pm
LeslieAnn

can i bother anyone for the second letter of the w?
9:42 pm

Non-pro players only get the stats and finishing fireworks for their first 2 weeks.

So here's a hypothetical -- if you built a platform across the international dateline and straddled it... would you be in two times at once and would this create a paradox if you did something... on which day would you have done it?
11:45 pm
stidmama

*anticipating Helen's fireworks, puts fingers in ears*
11:45 pm
Jacula

Bloody hell, Stid! I'll save that q til later!
11:46 pm

Evening everyone. Happy New year. Hope you all had a great xmas
11:50 pm
stidmama

Hoot it was great! we had a long leisurely morning at home! *grin* You?
11:50 pm
hootowl

Memphis just thinks it's abig city. More like downtown with appendiges
11:51 pm
helenkeller

we had a douglas fir last few years, this year because he's been so grief-stricken, i let him pick out the tree all by himself - usually it's quite the involved process, as i MUST have the perfect tree -
11:51 pm
Jacula

Hi Hoot! How are you and how is the greywoulf family?
11:51 pm
stidmama

So what type of tree did you get this year? I am partial to scotch pines -- lovely scent. but allergic...
11:51 pm
hootowl

Far as I know he is fine. Was on last night but I missed him.
11:52 pm
hootowl

apendiges?
11:52 pm
helenkeller

i just let him pick it out, didn't check it or anything, he picked out a balsam - so needless to say, needles everywhere & ornaments falling off all the time - serves me right for being nice!
11:53 pm
Angelsong

Hi all...
11:53 pm
stidmama

oh but balsams smell really good too... I think if I could handle the allergy problems I'd get a nice pine for the corner of the room and then put balsam garlands up elsewhere.
11:53 pm
hootowl

We got a Frasier. It was either that or another white pine. Next year we'll do a bit of trimming though. Used dozens of ornaments and it still looks naked cause the branches hid a lot of them.
11:53 pm
helenkeller

didn't do the 'freshness test' - but it made life easier for him for those few seconds, i suppose that should be enough for me ------another *crash*
11:53 pm
stidmama

hi Angelsong! HAPPY BABBLEVERSARY!
11:53 pm
Jacula

It's just the menthol addition to tissues this Christmas tht has had me sneezing.
