your good, rbud

2:38 am

hootowl

not for nothing but I am very happy that you have decided to take over this game and run it your way. It would be nice if you considered some of the other people on here. no matter what YOU think, telling people stats before 1am _ which YOU picked is still cluing and I've had it!

2:38 am

2:47 am

scouser

hello Hootowl. The first stats today were 20 minutes in. I only have a couple of hours in the morning to do Babble (it is now 8.43 am) is there a special rule for the US?

2:47 am

anike

ho 4/6, 4/5, 5/16, 4/7

2:48 am

rbud

ty, it's the al... hmmm.... and the ho 5, duh! silly me

2:48 am

Haz1558

hootowl's gone, scouser.

2:49 am

rbud

got it! fireworks, in spite of distraction...

2:49 am

Haz1558

Well done, rbud.

2:49 am

grannyrose

for a 70 year old, she sure is feisty, hope i am at her age.

2:50 am

rbud

well, we never used to give anything like a full stat before an hour was up. just like f7, nothing more, and DEFINITELY no clueing before the hour.

2:50 am

scouser

hold on their gran, I am only three years short of 70 myself (or is it 2?) is there something I didn't know about Babble rules?

2:50 am

Haz1558

The hour after flip has always been controversial.

2:50 am

rbud

but I don't know why or how it started to be so.

2:51 am

Haz1558

It used to be the mostly accepted principle that for the first hour after flip only large words were called, no clues given. That evolved over time.

2:51 am

nurse1000

aily

2:51 am

grannyrose

nah, scouser, then again...it is an unwritten rule, no clues until the first hour is up...hence hoot's angst

2:51 am

anike

congrats rbud - been away putting meat in the oven

2:51 am

Haz1558

There then came the point where it seemed that speed in finding words was key. Those who liked the old way don't like the new way.

2:52 am

rbud

even jilli has gotten less upset about it lately. she used to fuss.

2:52 am

rbud

ty, anike! :)

2:52 am

scouser

I guess it evolves because some folk are getting the grid done in under an hour anyway and some of us have little enough time to spend

2:52 am

rbud

do you suppose hoot was here at the flip? and waited this long? oh, dear.

2:53 am

Haz1558

I can see everybody's point of view but I'm not sure how you keep everybody happy.

2:53 am

rbud

otherwise no point in fussing at this point in the game.

2:53 am

Haz1558

UNLESS, dr-g could build separate chat logs.

2:53 am

rbud

if chat bugs me, I flip it to "my friends", which is perfectly blank, lol

2:54 am

witchy

morning all. If hoot doesn't like people cluing early then they should turn off the chat by having whos on line or friends showing instead.

2:54 am

rbud

works for me.

2:54 am

grannyrose

are there 2 wi5's?

2:54 am

Haz1558

Ah, poor rbud, alone and friendless in babble. Cue violins.

2:54 am

scouser

Simple - make it a part of the rules of the game at joining.

2:54 am

rbud

exactly, witchy, but maybe she likes the company, who knows?

2:54 am

scouser

yes gran wi5/26 and 285/20

2:55 am

scouser

wi5/20

2:55 am

grannyrose

thanx scouser

2:55 am

scouser

the second one is airforce slang I think

2:55 am

rbud

heehee, I don't mind, I like the blank space. It came in handy over a year ago when certain folk monopolized the chat... I won't even mention his initials...

2:56 am

Haz1558

But there's the thing. There are rules for the game but only principles for the chat log and it's up to the players to decide what the principles are.

2:56 am

rbud

glad he's no longer frequenting the game.

2:56 am

grannyrose

and done, thanx again scouser

2:57 am

scouser

I don't look at the chog until I have done the first swathe of words. Anyway, one can just reduce window size and hey presto, chog's gone

2:57 am

rbud

woohoo, g'rose!

2:57 am

Haz1558

Well done, grannyrose.

2:57 am

rbud

never thought of that, scouser.

2:57 am

anike

I don't care either way - I just go head down until stuck then look for clues because I'm usually short of time at flip time (2 in the afternoon)

2:57 am

scouser

Wasn't Sgt Bilko always saying it?

2:58 am

grannyrose

thanx, all, and scouser...i just lurk until i have done first run through the grid...then look for clues/lists

2:58 am

scouser

wi5/20 I mean

2:58 am

rbud

I just tend to come an hour or more late, then read over the back chog.

2:58 am

grannyrose

yeah, yeah, scouser

2:58 am

anike

Gotta go - happy babbling

2:59 am

grannyrose

nite anike

2:59 am

rbud

bye, anike

2:59 am

Haz1558

Bye, anike.

2:59 am

dizgrannie

IMHO one reads the chog or one does not...it is truely up to the individual, whether he/she has chog up to see clues etc

3:00 am

grannyrose

so true, diz....one does not have to read chog until one is ready.

3:00 am

rbud

Yes, just like TV, if you don't like it, change it or turn it off, lol

3:00 am

dizgrannie

Thank you, Grannyrose

3:00 am

scouser

And I love the chog when it goes into pun-mode - and there is so little bad language it comes as a shock when someone does descend thereto.

3:01 am

rbud

like trolls - they are VERY foul sometimes, been pretty troll free lately, I think.

3:02 am

rbud

(oops, shouldn't mention them and jinx us)

if we can have Scots gied why cant we have their dead deid?

3:02 am

except for: suppose someone ought to list, I think I'll try the ARB method in excel just to see if I can do it.

3:03 am

{casts anti troll spell just in case}

3:03 am

grannyrose

anyway, love you all, friend and/or foe....you play babble, you can't be all bad.

3:04 am

Any lists posted

3:04 am

grannyrose

ditto here. off to other worlds. see you at the flip

3:04 am

rbud

not so far

3:05 am

Haz1558

rbud is working on it.

3:05 am

scouser

there is a way in excel using Data - text to columns - fixed width to give just the first two characters, and in this game as there is no 10-word you can use that fixed width bit to do all the columns.

3:06 am

grannyrose

gran, only what is chog..to access go into archive symbol, next to chat field symbol at top of chog box

3:06 am

scouser

I am stuck with 5 words to go. back to the grindstone.

3:06 am

Haz1558

I need to get going so I'll slip out. Bye for now!

Aloyisius

oh .. don't have one, so I can't be any help

5:17 am

MollyL

Looks like there were words about cluing in the first hour earlier. Maybe people are reluctant to chat.

5:19 am

Aloyisius

hi Molly.. I didn't scroll back. I usually close chat until I "earn" the list, so I didn't know.. what was the problem? too much info in clues? too soon? Long standing argument about cluing protocol.. if you don't want to see clues, just close chat

5:21 am

MollyL

I agree Aloy, but some people seem to wish that fist hour would be less of a "clue shout". Having read over the first hour a few times, I would keep chat off too. I like to find words on my own.

5:23 am

Aloyisius

me too.. spoils the fun of finding a goodie if it is handed to you. On the other hand, if I am really pressed for time and my goal is simply to complete the grid..

5:25 am

Aloyisius

so, I guess it harkens back to the reason you like to Babble..

5:25 am

Aloyisius

and that differs with each person, so I think the argument is pointless

5:29 am

MollyL

I'm not sure when or why it changed, but I remember hearing that there was no cluing in the first hour. Sort of an unwritten rule. Apparently that changes. I don't play then so this is all just what I've read in chat. I can see why people would like the first hour to play without being bombarded by clues. And perhaps wish they didn't have to turn chat off to do that. I turn off chat many times a day because people are just calling out words randomly.

5:30 am

mrpresident

Clues are up

5:30 am

Aloyisius

"Its your thing, do whatcha wanna do" .. singing softly so as not to wake hubby.. hi mrp, tyvm

5:31 am

mrpresident

indeed aloy! hi hunny and yw :)

5:32 am

Aloyisius

you often Babble at the flip, mrp.. how do you feel about this pressing issue?

5:33 am

mrpresident

I know it is pressing to some... however, it is 5pm here when it is flip... so I really like clues before I have to go about my business.

5:34 am

Aloyisius

ah so.. an expediter, makes sense

5:34 am

mrpresident

we all play a different game.
I note that when some try to find 'nbt' as fast as possible or 'fireworks' first... is their thing

5:34 am

Aloyisius

right! They derive pleasure from that.. and yay for them

5:34 am

mrpresident

some even are concerned about their ranking... and want clues first up to acheive that result

5:35 am

mrpresident

that is how the game goes and there are no rules on how to play the game.
I found it, in my observation, to be upsetting to some and many players when others imposed rules

5:36 am

Aloyisius

no surprise that everyone is different, so I don't see why a consensus is necessary.. "do whatcha wanna do"

5:36 am

Aloyisius

enjoy yourself and let others enjoy themselves

5:36 am

mrpresident

"do whatcha wanna do" !!
indeed!!

5:37 am

Aloyisius

(-: am singing now

5:37 am

mrpresident

I am sorry, did I miss something....?
A consensus??

5:37 am

Aloyisius

... can't see why we must "agree" on anything

5:37 am

mrpresident

You have branded that song in my brain now!! LOL !!!!

5:38 am

Aloyisius

LOL.. theme for today

5:38 am

mrpresident

i MUST be honest here and ask... God forbid it bites me... who is asking for a consensus?

5:39 am

mrpresident

is Dr.God asking?

5:39 am

Aloyisius

not me for sure! I presumed that was the intention of those who are upset that others are not doing what they think is "right"

5:39 am

mrpresident

this is his game, and we are all in the privileged position to have found ourselves here and playing it.

5:40 am

Aloyisius

of course, I have no idea what I'm talking about bc I haven't read the chat log (-:

5:41 am

mrpresident

and what is 'right'?? such a joke really aloy...
you have been here much longer than I have, and before lists and WAAAAAAAY back in the 'dark ages' when lists didn't come up from BJ until hours later, everyone was cluing in the first hour, and bragging about what they had

5:41 am

Aloyisius

oh do I remember those days!

5:42 am

Aloyisius

yes, BJ.. does he still

5:42 am

mrpresident

and were they the best!!? I loved that!

5:42 am

Aloyisius

Bablle I wonder? sorry, hiccup in finger

5:42 am

mrpresident

I remember not being able to finish a grid without the amazing clues! and times haven't changed for me... grid still comes up at 5pm and I still need clues!

5:43 am

Aloyisius

great comaraderie, or however you spell it, lol

5:45 am

mrpresident

I haven't seen BJ on for ages! He had a program that a friend created for him. It worked nicely at the time

5:45 am

Aloyisius

no, I wasn't able to finish grids.. I was still working. Lickety was the reason I was able to finish when I came back to Babble.. I quit for a while since I loved the game so much and had a hard time tearing myself away..

5:46 am

mrpresident

same here aloy! I often talked about my family being 'widows of babble'. That is why lickety created it... he was sick of me on the puter all day!! LOL!!

5:46 am

Aloyisius

hated to leave a grid undone, just my OCD .. ah, bless Lickety's heart

5:47 am

mrpresident

word game addict was my problem!! and then finding lovely people to chat with... kind of roped me in!

5:48 am

Aloyisius

yes, have really learned a lot and have enjoyed getting to know people from all over - a pleasure to be sure

5:48 am

mrpresident

and that is what the game is about :))

5:49 am

Aloyisius

I agree! so, now.. a second cuppa and reboot to the list.. brb..

5:50 am

mrpresident

see ya hunny! i need a cuppa too!

5:59 am

Aloyisius

h'mm, clues not coming up - will try again

6:09 am

mrpresident

i just came back... clues working here... give it another whirl

6:10 am

Aloyisius

got 'em by clicking "Lickety's clues", mrp.. but BetaV12 is still hanging on to yesterday's

6:11 am

mrpresident

oh, must have a look at that... brb

6:12 am

mrpresident

so you have closed BV12 and run it again?

6:12 am

Aloyisius

yes, I did.. but I didn't shut down

6:12 am

mrpresident

you should not need to shut down the puter... will look again

6:13 am

mrpresident

Aloy, empty your temporary files... clear your cache

6:14 am

Aloyisius

okie dokie, will do.. hunting my last word now (=:

6:14 am

11:39 am

Scrabbler

Hi Sue. I was printing my renewed DEA certificate. $551 for 2 yrs. Grrrr.

11:40 am

hego

wow! I had no idea they were that much.

11:41 am

Scrabbler

All I do is enter some data and print a certificate. For $551. And I rarely prescribe controlled substances.

11:42 am

hego

I know some docs who don't bother anymore.

11:42 am

hego

I don't know how they manage.

11:44 am

Scrabbler

I almost decided to skip it. I do not prescribe stimulant meds and I rarely prescribe a narcotic. Maybe a rare rx for Lortab. It would be easier to NOT have a certificate then I could say that I canNOT rx those meds.

11:45 am

hego

At my clinic, we try not to prescribe those meds, because we pay, but there is aways someone who has a number.

11:47 am

Scrabbler

8 yrs ago I stopped prescribing stimulants, for many reasons, and I focus on behavioral approaches for "ADHD."

11:47 am

hego

that's great, scrabs

11:48 am

hego

how is it working for you?

11:48 am

Scrabbler

I look at "ADHD" as behavior problems with inattention and misbehavior, so I teach parents to teach their kids new skills and strategies.

11:49 am

hego

interesting

11:50 am

Scrabbler

It works quite well for the parents that work hard at discipline, structure and consequences. Sadly too many parents want to use a pill. Stimulants are widely abused and I did not want to be a part of that. 70% of college kids use stimulants.

11:51 am

hego

it's an epidemic.

11:52 am

Scrabbler

It sure is. And amphetamines are not benign meds.

11:52 am

MollyL

I know a college kid who developed an addiction problem because she was upping with her ADHD meds and downing with booze.

11:53 am

hego

Hi Molly

11:53 am

Scrabbler

Yep, amphetamines are addictive.

11:55 am

this is a pretty easy grid.

11:58 am

Hi Stid

12:07 pm

Scrabbler

Ty for the letter, Stid.

12:07 pm

stidmama

:-) glad it arrived. meant to write something personal on each one, but the snow was on the way, and just wanted them mailed before June!

12:08 pm

Scrabbler

Power back on everywhere?

12:08 pm

stidmama

most of our peninsula now has power, though last night I know there were a few isolated roads without. I think there are still places south and east of us where power is still out, too.

12:10 pm

stidmama

I am taking today off to get myself back in some semblance of ready to teach... it was a long week and things got shuffled around a lot.

12:11 pm

Scrabbler

Good. I am sure all teachers are disorganized after last week there.

12:12 pm

stidmama

Probably -- most schools will have to push the end of the first semester back a week now -- it will make the kids happy, but it's a hassle calendar-wise

12:14 pm

stidmama

OOH! NBT!

12:14 pm

stidmama

and halfway.

12:15 pm

Scrabbler

Go Stid go!

12:21 pm

bichon

fa 5?

12:22 pm

Scrabbler

I did overdo it--I am so tired. I skied 5 miles Fri + Sat and skated for 90 min yesterday. But I had so much fun and feel great.

12:22 pm

bichon

12:22 pm

Scrabbler

12:22 pm

bichon

Did you skate on an outdoor pond?

12:22 pm

bichon

and ty

12:23 pm

Scrabbler

Outdoor rink. It has a roof but no walls. so the sun shines in.

12:23 pm

stidmama

well I am glad you had fun! I have decided that my hip hurts and goes out of place whether I exercise or not, so I am going to just start doing things again (slowly) and work up to being in shape again. I dug out my car three times Friday, and another person's car plus pushing that one up a hill also, so I think I am in better shape than I knew.

12:23 pm

stidmama

wait, what is this concept, "sun in winter" ...

12:24 pm

bichon

I tried skating on an unplowed pond and it ruined my blades

12:24 pm

Scrabbler

All done. Any clues wanted?
