(good question mom)
11:38 am

lol Eva. My dad is strictly and beef and potatoes man
11:38 am
Mom

no chicken, turkey once a year, and maybe pork chops twice a year
11:39 am
Mom

a*
11:40 am
EvaNadine

thats sorta my hubby too.
i mean, i can get him to eat other stuff, but its mainly beef + chicken. some pasta (though he seems to think different shapes have different flavors)
hes ok with real turkey, but particular about his lunchmeat. he will eat pork/ham, but theyre not his favorites.
problem is he is picky + im not a great cook, just learning. so it makes for a LOT of repeat.
11:40 am
kje

how ca you not be a soup fan... that is too broad! there are millios of soups! has he tried all and does not like them?
11:40 am
EvaNadine

kje -- i think he doesnt think anything liquid-based is a full meal.
11:40 am
kje

man, I could NEVER live with someone that picky about food... otherwise, he would be left to cook his own or broaden his horizos
11:41 am
Mom

shame he won't eat soups, I have a recipe for O'Charley's potato soup
11:41 am
EvaNadine

heh, i HAVE worked to broaden his horizons -- he loves thai food now, and would never have eaten it until i talked him into it.
11:41 am
kje

there are meat ad potato soups...
11:41 am
Mom

would he eat stew?
11:41 am
EvaNadine

i can get him to try new things, so long as i give him a sandwich or something first, so hes not starving if he doesnt like the new food.
11:42 am
EvaNadine

i dont know yet about stew. i think he would "put up" with it, but i dont think he would love it.
11:42 am
Mom

lol
11:42 am
Mom

really going now, the wind is picking up. ((Hugs))

i basically try to start with things i know he likes and branch out from there.
"look honey, its all the same stuff as [insert favorite dish here] but its just got this one extra thing..."

puzzle_junky

jbv, thanks for the hint, but it didn't address my questions really. I understand the point system, but I'm wondering what the boxes below the puzzle mean... i.e., R 0/1, H 3/3?
12:34 pm
cgw8

How many words start with that letter is the second number.
12:34 pm
cgw8

The first number is how many you have.

hello puzzle_junky, welcome to babble, be warned it is addictive

and sometimes the chog (chat log, this bit here) is just as addictive
12:39 pm

stuck on the two en5/12's. Any hints? D:
12:39 pm

en and take to court for damages perhaps
12:40 pm

...How did I not have that? D:
12:40 pm

and en and your bill is now over***
12:40 pm

fishy fishy, too easy sometimes and we are looking for harder ones
12:40 pm
cgw8

Yeah, I got that one. That's 5/14.
12:41 pm
puzzle_junky

well, i have to admit, i think i need to learn a new language, cuz i don't have a clue what you guys are talking about most of the time!

duh, so it is lol

And feel free to ask. Everyone is super friendly here. :D
12:41 pm
puzzle_junky

:D
12:42 pm
jacq

we can give hints but not outright words, so ensue (yes will go to the pb in a minute) is clued as en5/12, 5 letters 12 points
12:42 pm
cgw8

Ah, I got the last one. :D
12:42 pm
puzzle_junky

ahhhh...honor amongst babblers... i see. good code.
12:42 pm
jacq

the points system is simple once you know it, a four letter word is scored by adding the letter values, 5 letter word is letter value doubled, six is trebled and so on
12:43 pm
jacq

care to clue the last one please :o)
12:43 pm
cgw8

Ah, gimme a sec. I don't actually know what it means. I monkeyed it. xD
12:44 pm
jacq

and we go to the pb (penalty bin) if we type a word in the chog thats in the grid, like ensue
12:44 pm
puzzle_junky

double whammy for you!
12:45 pm
jacq

yup, but it was the best way to explain the clues we give, so will take my coffee and scrounge the homebakes in the pb lol
12:45 pm
puzzle_junky

well, thank you for your sacrifice just to help me understand... ;)
12:45 pm

12:46 pm

The definition of the second en5/12 is "to come into use"

WTG, wild!!! YAY!!!
8:51 pm
dianedecoder

I asked this question earlier.... how long does it take numbers in the rankings to change ? I know mine went down when I didn't complete a grid, but I haven't missed finishing one, in well over 2 weeks.
8:52 pm
jmcnrick

it depends on the size of the grids i think--i never look at the rankings unless there is someone's profile i want to see
8:52 pm
wildcat17

yup hagn e1
8:53 pm
jmcnrick

average(round(total points earned ÷ total points possible x 1000)) + (# of puzzle completions)
8:53 pm
Nef

I think it also depends on how many others are playing too at the time that are around your ranking
8:54 pm
dianedecoder

I just look at my own, and only the right hand column... just for curiosity sake
8:54 pm
Nef

and the longer you play, the less change in the ranks will be noted
8:55 pm
dianedecoder

I have 1007 right now... I was up to 1015 once but it dropped.... many have 1030 which seems to be the max.
8:55 pm
jmcnrick

sprite has been slipping the last year--the only reason i notice is that if i want to know what the icon theme i look for her
8:55 pm
dianedecoder

I guess I'm just looking at the "who's hot" LOL
8:56 pm
jmcnrick

well i guess you are hot!
8:57 pm
dianedecoder

nooooo.... far from it... an literally too... it's -21 C here right now !!
8:57 pm
jmcnrick

i am 581 in that column
8:58 pm
jmcnrick

but then i don't get past 1/2 if i am tired or the grid is making me cranky
9:00 pm
jmcnrick

i have hu 4 and 5 what am i missing?
9:00 pm
dan2bit

evening all
9:00 pm
jmcnrick

hi dan
9:00 pm
Nef

I'm just 485 on that column. I'm not even on the left column rankings at all (that's what happened when I didn't play for a year)
9:01 pm
Nef

hu 4/7 and hu4/6, jmc
9:01 pm
jmcnrick

i am not in the left column either nef and i have not stop playing for more than a few days at any given time
9:01 pm
jmcnrick

ty nef
9:02 pm
Nef

but you've only been here for about 2 years. I've been playing over 5 years
9:02 pm
jmcnrick

that would affect the middle column the total numbers i think
9:03 pm
jmcnrick

the left hand like the right seems largely dependent on completing the grid if you start
9:04 pm
Nef

boy, now you've made me go check!
9:04 pm
jmcnrick

sorry
9:05 pm
jmcnrick

i am glad the stats are there because it gives some people pleasure but i really don't care
9:06 pm
jmcnrick

i occassionally look at them when someone starts this conversation
9:07 pm
Nef

I really don't care either. But you are right, jmc; it is the number of completed puzzles -on average- for that player. Correct?
9:07 pm
dianedecoder

I only compete against myself... I'm not really interested in what others are doing... I just challenge myself.
9:08 pm
Nef

NM, I'm still not thinking right on that
9:08 pm
jmcnrick

well what ever makes you interested and happy
9:08 pm
jmcnrick

no it is more complicated than that nef
9:09 pm
jmcnrick

average(round(total points earned ÷ total points possible x 1000)) + (# of puzzle completions)
9:09 pm
jmcnrick

so doing 1/2 on a large grid will have a greater negative effect than 1/2 on a small grid
9:10 pm
Nef

okay, so it's better not to even start giant grids if we were worried about stats then
9:11 pm
jmcnrick

that is the way i read the formula
9:11 pm
jmcnrick

but i haven't analysed it thouroughly so i could be wrong
9:12 pm
jmcnrick

nevertheless it is clear that finishing adds a clear premium
9:13 pm
Nef

I used to really try to finish every grid I started back in the day; once I came back to the game, I just don't bother as much any more. Of course, now I work days so can't be up all night either!
9:14 pm
jmcnrick

lol that pesky work stuff!
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

i was obsessed for a while, but finally got it where i could take it or leave it
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

i tended to finish more when i would get in a race with pini
9:15 pm
Nef

Yeah. And my younger sister is RETIRING next month! What's with that anyway?
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

how rude!
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

9:17 pm

to tell you the truth; I think I'd really hate being fully retired. I work half time (or that's what I get paid for, anyway) and I love my job

Go, go, jmc! You can finish!

did I see that you did quit your job? Or did I read that wrong?
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

i gave them notice so they could hire someone
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

it may not have been my brightest move
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

but i am clear that i need to move on
9:19 pm
Nef

when is your last day?
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

i just want someplace to move on to
9:20 pm
dianedecoder

I expressed myself incorrectly.... I AM interested in how others are doing, and love to encourage and clue and chat.... I just meant that other's scores are not what I dwell on, just what I can accomplish.
9:20 pm
Nef

what would be your dream job right ow?
9:21 pm
jmcnrick

lol we knew what you meant diane

I took it as though you were interested in competing against yourself, diane. :-)

my dream job would be to be the head of an advocacy agency that has enough $ so that i am not fundraiser, administrator, bookkeeper, figurehead and supervisor

9:23 pm

i just want to use some of the skills i have learned over the last 11 years

But jmc! Isn't that what the head of a company should do? (We just hired a new Exec. director with that precise job description
9:23 pm

A computer is only as good as its programmer and, once it has an owner/user, only as good as they let it be, especially if they don't keep it in order.

One of my old schoolfriends here in UK has a few friends in Queensland. Two of them have had their homes washed away in the floods. That presumably means they have lost everything - all possessions, all photo albums, life memories etc. But, they are all still alive. That's not the case for some, I know.

No it isn't. Breaks my heart. Jordan Rice and his mother Donna and brother Blake were caught in it. A trucky rescued Blake at Jordans' insistence but it was too late to save Jordan when he was swept away his mother let go too

I was surprised that some of our American friends didn't know the layout of Australia. I was taught that when I was about 5. But maybe that's because it was once part of our 'Empire'?
11:12 pm
herinfernallady

It isn't lay out thing it is that you don't think Aus to be so big
11:12 pm
Jacula

I believe they're going to have to empty the dam near Brisbane rather than have it break?
11:12 pm
Jacula

So, they didn't have maps f Aus to scale then?

Some of our American friends don't even know the layout of Canada.

When we were breeding Gt Danes in the Montreal area, I had a message from another breeder in Houston, Texas, ask me to visit some puppies she had sold in Vancouver. I told her she was closer.
11:16 pm
Jacula

Herin - but it happens to Aussies and NZers in UK. I did it myself a few weeks ago. I hadn't heard enough word from the cashier in Tesco to work out if she was Aussie or NZ. If she'd have said enough words with an 'a' in, I'd have known she was NZ.

11:18 pm
Jacula

Having said that, you might be hard pressed to differentiate between my 'posh' Brummie accent and my Other Half's 'been away from wher I was born for a while' Black country accent. So many people call him a 'Brummie' but he isn't, and the accents are different.
11:19 pm
jillibus

What's Black country?
11:20 pm
Jacula

jilli - the area of Walsall, Wolverhampton etc.

OK, I get it. Ann old school friend of mine lived in Wolverhampton for a while, but she's posh.
11:24 pm
Jacula

For 'is not', Brummies might say 'ent', Black Country folks would say 'ay'. So, for 'he is not happy', Brummie would be 'E ent 'appy!' and Black Country would be 'Ee ay 'appy!'
11:25 pm
Jacula

As a posh Brummie, I would probably say, 'E isn't 'appy!' But I'd write or read out, 'He isn't happy'.
11:26 pm

Dropping Hs is posh in Brummie?

People think I am crazy when I say if you get a cattle/sheep dog from Wales and move them to a new owner in England you have to make sure the dog gets the new accent
11:40 pm
jillibus

a bit of Quebec slang, stid, untranslatable, but I think we get the idea, oui?
11:41 pm
stidmama

no no, BJ is probably busy like I am (sometimes I try to get words but NOT chat -- believe it or not)
11:41 pm
stidmama

oui, jill, pour petre (maybe is what I am going for, not sure how to spell that one)
11:41 pm
jillibus

I do that too, stid
11:41 pm
Jacula

Herin - not crazy. It happens quite often her in Worcs and Herefordshire. We get Welsh sheepdogs who only understand Welsh commands. Same happens with cows.
11:41 pm
jillibus

did that today, and finished.
11:42 pm
herinfernallady

Hence whistle training with a whistle not a human voice whistle
11:42 pm
jillibus

And in Quebec we got Francophone Obedience dogs...
11:42 pm
stidmama

I have found that sometimes German Shepherd dogs know what I mean when I speak German ...
11:43 pm
Jacula

Not many humans can just whistle train, they can't resist talking to the dog.
11:43 pm
stidmama

Lucky seems to obey better sometimes when I use German. But we speak English to him because other people need to be able to speak to him too.
11:43 pm
jillibus

oh come on, stid -- tone of voice, body language...
11:43 pm
stidmama

well done and YAY jill!
11:44 pm
herinfernallady

My friend has trained her dogs in a different language to the regular training words. Dead set funny when a dog trainer hit her dog as she was being disobediant and the dog bit him and wouldn't let go. The man tried every single language for let go and nothing worked
11:44 pm
stidmama

possibly -- but when English and Spanish don't work, German sometimes does!
11:44 pm
stidmama

LOL
11:44 pm
jillibus

Did Lucky belong to Germans before you?
11:44 pm
stidmama

what did work, lady?
11:44 pm
Jacula

Why not just play and not chat then? I do it more often than not. True, I come in hours after I've finished the grid at times to chat, but not always.
11:44 pm
stidmama

no idea jill -- remember we rescued him from a barn when he was almost two. Don't know who had him (and mistreated him)
11:45 pm
jillibus

Some dog trainer, hitting a dog!
11:46 pm
Jacula

you beat me to that post, Jilli. No pun intended.
11:46 pm
jillibus

I chat when I want too -- mostly at flip time and shortly after.
11:46 pm
jillibus

*want to
11:47 pm
jillibus

I'm happy that I now have cable and the TVs I thought were kaput are working fine.
11:47 pm
stidmama

wait-- when did you get cable? this is GREAT!!!
11:47 pm
Jacula

Speaking of our canine friends, I suppose you've all got the fu6.33 decription of their bodies?
11:47 pm
herinfernallady

Well I don't think hit is the right word. But yes he was warned and funny happened
11:48 pm
stidmama

jill has entered the 20th century... *wicked mama look* now to get her up to speed on the 21st...
11:48 pm
stidmama

I just did, but thanks jac
11:48 pm
jillibus

Got it today, stid :-) Changed from satellite.
11:48 pm
herinfernallady

Stid the words my friend has taught her dogs. Even I have trouble saying them. I think it is Yugoslavian (Pardon spelling)
11:49 pm
jillibus

perfect spelling for a dchange, herin!
11:49 pm
stidmama

:-D that's great jill -- I think that cable is a little more reliable, just from anecdotal evidence from friends
11:49 pm
herinfernallady

I am using Babble Pro and this doesn't have spell check. Normally I have spell check
11:49 pm
stidmama

wow. interesting language choice, but a sure bet the dogs won't get confused and obey the wrong commands, I guess.
11:50 pm
Jacula

Speaking of teaching words to species other than our own - my Mum's seemingly straight-laced friend has taught her parrot to say 'F*ck Off!' and yes, he did say it to the local vicar.
11:50 pm
stidmama

*gasp* oh no! roflmao
11:50 pm
herinfernallady

That is funny
11:50 pm
jillibus

stid, I had an abstruse system via satellite, utilising a UHF transmitter to all the sets in the house, but it only worked with old sets and newer ones don't do UHF.
11:50 pm
herinfernallady

Stid she is from there.
11:51 pm
stidmama

ah, yes, that is true.
11:51 pm
stidmama

well that probably made it easier for her to know the right words! LOL
11:51 pm
Jacula

I'm wandering off to my bed now. See you all next grid.xxx
11:51 pm

my husband and 4 burly blokes tried to help lift a dude's car (upside down) off the main street, but the force of the water rammed it hard into tarmac
11:57 pm

11:59 pm
herinfernallady

Gort you got the numbers to call and the registry?
