negativeneil

No, actually.
12:20 am
negativeneil

Yeah, that it was.
12:21 am
gremlinn

nothing over 7 - I hate it when it's like that
12:21 am
negativeneil

Agreed.
12:21 am
jillibus

Neazle has finished already as usual?
12:21 am
negativeneil

Neazle never tells. :P

negativeneil

[new policy]
12:21 am

Well, I don't like long words, so there.
12:22 am
negativeneil

Geez Laura... look what you started?!
12:22 am
negativeneil

Ok fine... give them all to us.
12:22 am
jillibus

"that it was" is a dead giveaway
12:22 am
negativeneil

Oh, that could just mean I'm near the end.
12:22 am
Fauxmage

What did I do?
12:23 am
jillibus

well, I'm just at the beginning -- had to get an angel icon
12:23 am
jillibus

You did Neazele, Laura
12:23 am
negativeneil

But yeah, it's small and not too difficult. I really want a nice big 400+ word grid with a lot of nice long words in it.
12:23 am
negativeneil

You've started something Laura. Now jilli calls me that all the time.
12:24 am
Fauxmage

12:24 am

not sure if it even is a word...but ideologue anyway
12:37 am
negativeneil

Not sure either but "videolog" may be... not sure about that being all one word though.
12:37 am
jillibus

boohoo -- I wanted eulogied but Enable didn't
12:37 am
negativeneil

Yes, I was seeing that as a phantom too!
12:37 am
gremlinn

eulogia too
12:37 am
negativeneil

Yep.
12:38 am
negativeneil

Except the A is nowhere close enough.
12:38 am
negativeneil

Everything else is though.
12:38 am
gremlinn

well, my defintion's probably a little looser - I consider some that have just one letter off, even if it's not in the grid
12:39 am
jillibus

Is this thing full of babblets and such?
12:39 am
negativeneil

Oh, ok.
12:40 am
negativeneil

Not sure... don't know all the words that are considered "babblets".
12:40 am
dizgrannie

I think it is Jilli, have 35 left and stumped
12:40 am
gremlinn

I think it's those with a certain ratio of frequency in grid, to frequency in usage
12:40 am
negativeneil

I don't call any of them that because they're all legit words found outside of Babble... I run into them in Word Racer, Letterblox, Boggle, etc.
12:40 am
gremlinn

Like "inia", where the ratio is pretty insane
12:41 am
negativeneil

I guess, but I haven't Babbled long enough to know which those would be.
12:41 am
jillibus

ty diz -- I keep finding partial words
12:41 am
negativeneil

I see. Actually my name is too... but Enable doesn't like it. :P
12:41 am
dizgrannie

simple words like di 4 etc
12:41 am
negativeneil

My name has been in several of these grids lately.
12:42 am
jillibus

well, babblets to me are obscure words usually only found in puzzles and totally useless in conversation. But some, like "inia", are frequently popping up here and we get used to them.
12:43 am
Jellen

Could I have the stats for a U word, please?
12:43 am
negativeneil

Oh ok... well, there's the needlecase.
12:43 am
gremlinn

I don't call them "babblets" because as neil says, it's not specifically something related to Babble
12:43 am
negativeneil

12:43 am

GMTA, grem.
12:44 am
jillibus

well, it's nicer to call them babblets rather than ruder names which they deserve imho.
12:44 am
gremlinn

hehe
12:45 am
Jellen

Thanks, Neil.
12:45 am
Jellen

nbt
12:45 am
gremlinn

My mind always organize them by letter patterns rather than meaning, so I've never had particular difficulty finding them relative to more common words, once I know them.
12:45 am
negativeneil

Oh? Why call them rude names? The fun of this is learning some of these "strange" and uncommonly used words, isn't it? Improves one's Scrabble game and other word games. ;)
12:45 am
jillibus

wtg jellen
12:45 am
negativeneil

You're welcome Jellen.
12:46 am
Jellen

I enjoyed learning the definition of footle in the last grid...
12:46 am
jillibus

that applies to you and grem and dfm and chuggaboom and so on, neil, not to Dull Normals likeme.
12:46 am
negativeneil

Huh, jilli?
12:47 am
gremlinn

For me the tough ones are sometimes those with 3+ vowels in a row
12:48 am
jillibus

words like footle are fun, but there others like some of the obscure coins from obscure countries which just annoy me -- but that's just my problem.
12:48 am
gremlinn

toea!
12:48 am
negativeneil

You want all easy grids with only very commonly known words in them? What fun would that be? I love learning new and interesting words I can use in other word games... the more of these games and puzzles you do, the more you pick up and add to your vocabulary.
12:48 am
negativeneil

I love that word, gremlinn!
12:48 am
jillibus

yes!
12:48 am
negativeneil

I pull that out in Letterblox and my opponents accuse me of cheating, haha!
12:48 am
gremlinn

Fit as both a 3+ vowel example *and* an obscure coin example.
12:49 am
Erda

Letterblox? What is it?
12:49 am
negativeneil

Oh they accuse me of that anyway... despite the fact I'm typing from the moment the game starts until it ends. Yeah, sure... when did I have time to "cheat"?
12:49 am
hootowl

Lickety isn't up?
12:49 am
jillibus

You see, I used to prefer British cryptic crosswords because most of them use only "real" words.
12:49 am
negativeneil

It's a game on OMGPOP, Erda... word finding game. There's a link to join in my Babble profile.
12:50 am
jillibus

No, hoot.
12:50 am
negativeneil

Oh I see, jilli.
12:50 am
Erda

I'll check it out, Neil -- thanks!
12:50 am
hootowl

wow - anything wrong ?
12:50 am
gremlinn

I can make a profile list if it would help
12:50 am

You should, Erda... if you have a very fast typing speed?

12:53 am

Might keep you busy and amused for a while.
12:53 am

So maybe save it for after the grid, haha.
12:53 am
hootowl

you make me sound like a puppy
12:54 am

No! I'm making a joke because of how much I've stuffed into it already.
12:54 am

okay, list in my profile
12:54 am

Thank you grem! I'll even forgive you for stealing my ec word!

hehe, don't remember stealing words...
12:58 am

Haha, well I'm a political writer and have articles and blogs online, so I'm used to just putting my opinions right out there. I do it on Twitter too and sure, I get flamed but that's life.
12:58 am
jillibus

vanilla, grem's list will help -- put him in your "My Friends"
12:58 am

Ah, the ec was just when someone asked for stats for a word on that letter

Yeah, I absorb all the girls I touch - I've been doing a lot of groping lately.
1:02 am
vanillaslice

you grope in the right places ... mm that doesnt sound quite right
1:05 am
negativeneil

I thought you were a girl at first, gremm.
1:05 am
gremlinn

It's the double N, yeah.
1:05 am
negativeneil

Or woman I should say.
1:06 am
negativeneil

Haha, vanillaslice... well it might to him. Sounds like a compliment to me.
1:06 am
gremlinn

Some people have thought "Linn" was my name from that.
1:06 am
negativeneil

No, it's the icons you use. Plus you don't specify your gender.
1:06 am
negativeneil

Well yeah, that could be too.
1:06 am

I might be weirder than you. Never know.
1:08 am

I don't think there is.. Lickety always announces it when he posts, doesn't he?
1:08 am
gremlinn

I guess it's conceivable.
1:08 am

I used to, haven't for a few years
1:25 am

I play in Social Lounge 7 at table 1 most often... sometimes table 2-4, depending which one my regular gang of buddies is at. If you go into that lounge and see "baha254" and "dheval_de_trait", they're the hosts of the table/s I play at.
1:26 am

want to play a little now?

I used to have a chimney sweep who showed up wearing a black top hat. He was a trip. Alas, he retired.
8:10 am

And a funny story. We were outside The White House, giving some friends the DC tour. Dan said to the guard, "So, those guys on the roof...snipers?" The guard winked and replied, "Chimney sweeps."

9:15 am

why ty hego
9:16 am
crosshair

The Earth’s North and South Poles flip polarity on a semi-frequent basis having done so more then 20 times in the past 5 million years. That means that with the next flip, all compasses will be pointing South rather then North.

9:16 am

uh oh swelled head syndome

my wifes given name is victoria,so it really has a noible ring to it victoria melbourne

well divie 20 by 5 million and you will get a rough estimate as to when to be ready with yer markers lol
9:18 am
crosshair

divide
9:18 am
doseffing

... why owrry hego? ... a few years ago the magnetic pole moved across the border into the U.S. from Canada so all the compasses are pointing to you now
9:18 am

Initialization error. Contact Dr_God if this persists......any way to deal with this aside from emailing god?

9:20 am

I think the solar radiation is more of a danger to our electronics than anything else - pole reversals happen often enough that they don't seem to be associated with drastic extinctions or anything
9:20 am
Scrabbler

Youshould be paranoid, Hego.
9:20 am

use a newfie compass just draw a compass on a bit of paper and point the arrow to where you aint and youll come home with no complaint

jack london did a good tale on that when up in our tundra areas,he used to get awsome signal bounce

mrpresident

9:42 am
Scrabbler

She does the play-by-play for me--the newspaper, the obits, what she did yesterday, what a doofus my father is, what my nephews are doing, the weather, what body part is aching, ....when she is quiet I relaize she has asked a question.
9:42 am
mrpresident

expert is working fine
9:43 am
Scrabbler

*realize
9:43 am
mrpresident

oh scrabs!! happy hunting in that conversation! poor sweetie!
9:43 am
mrpresident

realise is also acceptable
9:44 am
Scrabbler

Free association, long-distance tangential thoughts....
9:44 am
uusue2

hmmm, expert doesn't seem to be working for me either, will go to lickety's site
9:44 am
mrpresident

relaize seems appropriate for your situation :)) LOL
9:45 am
Scrabbler

OMG, she is done talking already. Because I told her I was about to go outside to plant bulbs, which I am about to do. See you later kids! I hope Babble will be working soon.
9:45 am
uusue2

bye, scrabs!
9:45 am
uusue2

and lickety's site is working for me so will be back and forth
9:46 am
mrpresident

9:46 am
mrpresident

i don't know if you know yet...
9:47 am
uusue2

9:47 am
mrpresident

9:48 am
uusue2

9:48 am
flosey

Good morning everyone - I seem to have a problem, has anyone else lost all their Babble words?
9:48 am
uusue2

9:49 am
flosey

oh, thanks sue
9:49 am
flosey

9:49 am
uusue2

anyway, mrp, what's up?
9:51 am
mrpresident

she is in an 'exclusive' relationship with a boy she has known for 3 years... they had their first kiss on friday night... for 1 second... just a peck!!
aaawwwwww!!!
9:52 am
uusue2

how sweet, mrp!!!
9:52 am
mrpresident

and he has been given the boundries... no touching anything that is covered by clothing! she told him straight up!!
9:53 am
mrpresident

i am so proud of her and happy for her at the same time, but of course, worried too! heartbreak is hard for them at this age... but they have had their fights and gotten through it as friends.
9:53 am
doseffing

... as father of two ... I can assure you that if you had problems with insomnia before this ... you ain't seen nothing like the lack of sleep you're going to get on weekends now ...
9:53 am

9:54 am
mrpresident

9:55 am

9:57 am
mrpresident

I approached him a few days ago... put my arm around his neck and gave him a hug.... 'welcomed' him and said I was so happy that my daughter was happy and glad they were 'getting on well'... then said, 'you take care of her and don't hurt her'... kissed him on the forehead and walked away...
9:58 am
mrpresident

lol crossy!! luv you too!
9:58 am
mrpresident

i am so 'mafia'... LOL

Hello...

10:19 am

SQL errors are not easy to fix. This may take a while, provided Dr. God is actually working on it.
10:19 am
mrpresident

hi jellen :))
10:20 am
Jellen

Ah, so there's a reason my word list isn't loading?
10:20 am
mrpresident

he is working on it Molly, for sure... he is dedicated to fixing stuff here... ivesy had an issue before flip and let him know so he is probably trying to sort that and come across other probs
10:20 am
crosshair

indeed:)
10:21 am
uusue2

I just sent him an email...
10:22 am
Dorens

oh dear. i suppose this is the sort of thing that is a lot easier to deal with for those of you with babble expert. you can still enter everything and then send it over when babble is back up?
10:22 am
Sally-catlover

Now isn't that typical. I haven't been able to play for ages, and I choose today of all days!
10:22 am

10:22 am

sally! I haven't seen you in ages!!!
10:23 am
mrpresident

i have finished, but no firewords on babble... will have to wait until the list is accepted :))
10:23 am
Sally-catlover

{{ruby}} !
10:23 am
uusue2

Also my computer has gone into molasses mode so I will probably have to reboot, which I think means I will lose all the words I entered into lickety
10:23 am
mrpresident

hi all that came in whilst I was working away!! :)) **hugs**
10:24 am
uusue2

Maybe I will wrote them down if I can ever get my browser to scroll again
10:24 am
Sally-catlover

By the way, just now someone said that an ou5 is the British spelling of not inner, but that isn't so. It means outlandish (with an acute accent on the last letter). We spell the other word just as the other side of the pond does.
10:24 am
uusue2

Expert isn't working for me either
10:24 am
Jellen

I just popped in to say hi, anyway...
10:24 am

10:24 am
uusue2

Hi sally, it was a cute clue, though
10:25 am
Sally-catlover

Quite, ruby.
10:25 am
mrpresident

ok, all 93 done, but non on babble.
10:25 am
Jellen

Hooray for mrp!
10:25 am
Sally-catlover

OK, for those of you without Expert. Go to lickety, copy and paste his list into a Word document, then enter the words into there ready to pop in when you can.
10:25 am
rubyfoo

and if somebody is more of a monster is he og***?

10:32 am

10:33 am

Don't laugh...windows XP

10:39 am

several of us have already written him, and he tried rebooting the servers a couple of hours ago
10:50 am
Riverdance

I cant even email him...tried and got the error messages
10:51 am
uusue2

some people can get expert to work, but not me; I've been entering words in lickety
10:51 am
Riverdance

I dont use expert
10:51 am
uusue2

"send them" way at the bottom of the page has a "mailto" link, you can use that in your own mailer (outlook or whatever) to email him
10:52 am
Riverdance

we can still chat here (which is nice) but that's about it
10:57 am

godthaab

Thanks
10:59 am
uusue2

you are more dedicated than I am, river :-)
11:03 am
MollyL

"British spelling of not inner" was just a nudge to use the flipped last two letters the way some British words are spelled. Just to clarify, since I was corrected earlier.
11:03 am
uusue2

I knew that, molly, and thought it was a cute clue :-)
11:04 am
Sally-catlover

I just thought it might confuse some, Molly!
11:08 am

1:49 pm
scouser

Oh well let's hope they scrap the scores for today if we have to type everything in again. However, as an ex-programmer I would think that the system can right itself once this sql fetch instruction gets corrected. I wonder if it is a Microsoft glitch - they did a lot of updates yesterday (or was it the day before?)

3:27 pm

Verdigris in turn is: 1. A blue or green powder consisting of basic cupric acetate used as a paint pigment and fungicide.
2. A green patina or crust of copper sulfate or copper chloride formed on copper, brass, and bronze exposed to air or seawater for long periods of time.

There is no di 4/5 need for a story today, but here is one anyway. Hubby and I always ar5/16 over Babble. He does not ca4/5 for this game. He regrets the day he told his friend Ca5/12 to show me how to play the game. However, I'm gr5/14ful to him for showing me how to play.We ar5/16 with such vi6/36 that we say cr5/14 things. Our fights can be gr 5/16ling at times because we will fight for over an ho 4/5. My husband can be an A-ho4/5!He gets ir4/5 whenever I babble.I have been a lu5/12 and tried to lu 4/5 him to Babble, but to no avail.He is such an og 4/6 when it comes to Babble. On a scale of 1 to 10 my husband would ra4/4 Babble negative 100. Husband would like to enforce a no Babble ru4/5. Whenever I hear his car pull in,I try to leave no tr 5/12 of Babble on the laptop by closing all the windows. Husband is being a he 4/5 and wants computer.I gr 4/7 at what he might do if I don't give it to him. I'm going to te 4/4 myself away from laptop and go watch My Name is Ea4/4 or I might watch Will and Gr5/16. I have vi4/8 to ra 4/5 back here to help clue later. By the way, none of this story is tr 4/5.
