How about a hint on the nine? I've only got sixes so far.
1:11 am
Atalante

ohhh its hard to give a clue for ... add to a 6 letter word and its very very unpleasant
1:12 am
Karen

hi, somewhat new so don't know what type of hints are appropriate but the one I've got is an old medical technique, not commonly done nowadays
1:13 am
sapphie

Hmmm....10 people got the same (and presumably max) score yesterday.
Lawyer-1 and bulldog are of course old hands at this....but a lot of newcomers did well....congratulations. ;)

I have gotten all the words twice, both happened this week, and during the same time period I lost 40 places in the rankings.
1:18 am
runningforhome

Yeah, the rankings seem fairly screwed.


Thanks for the tip, by the way; I got the nine.
1:19 am

I 100% know bulldog that you got your max score the good old way, and am full of admiration for those who do.

1:39 am
lawyer-1

If all of you suffered from insomnia as I do, you would have plenty of time to Babble and get high scores. It is now 2:38 a.m. here, I have all day and night to rack my brain over this and even do some random typing.

To sleep; perchance to dream!

Is this it?

7:35 am
meggiemoo

isn't using a word finder cheating?
7:41 am
Jemper

I don't think so. Frankly, my vocabulary isn't robust enough for these puzzles. So, I identify what I can, then use the wordfinder to help find the ones I missed. Some may call it cheating, but it keeps me in the puzzle longer. *shrug*
7:43 am
granadan

I cant find anything over a six!
7:45 am
eyezzz

[quote]isn't using a word finder cheating?[/quote]

Is using a dictionary cheating? Is giving hints cheating? Heck some might say that the stats given here is cheating. Do what you feel comfortable doing ... in the end it's just me against the puzzle ~ I know what I know, I know what new words I've learned and I know what words I got lucky with by just typing in letters and letting it rip. ;)
7:45 am
meggiemoo

i bet you've got a better vocabulary than me ;)
7:47 am
Jemper

eyezzz ~ You said it far better than I could have! ;o)
7:50 am
Jemper

(or did, for that matter)
7:52 am
granadan

Is there anyway to see the answers to old puzzles?
7:54 am
meggiemoo

giving/getting hints isn't cheating because it doesn't flat out tell u the word, dictionaries isn't exactly cheating, u still have to look for the words, stats isn't cheating either, because they only say the limits and nothing else. But a word finder (hints the name) FINDS WORDS, and that is all we are doing in this puzzle. So, some can use it and not be cheating (like jemper) because they are using it AFTER they have found all the words they can and don't take credit in their minds for the computer's answers.
7:55 am
lawyer-1

granadan,

Click on "Archives" at the top to see old games.
7:58 am
Jemper

Ah, I think we are using the term "wordfinder" differently. The website I'm using is basically an online dictionary, though it does have some powerful search functions (give me words starting or ending with [insert letter combo]). It does NOT, however look at the puzzle and tell me what all of the words are.
8:01 am
Jemper

I think eyezzz said it best ~ it's really between you and puzzle, only you will really know how you got the words on your list. :o)
8:24 am
Jemper

40 words / 4.85 / 585
Calling it a nite for now! G'nite all, have fun while I'm sleeping...
8:34 am
Swtbtrcup

Its not cheating. You still have to find the words. It just helps with some of the obtuse words and helps you spell them right. You still have to use your mind.

Your 'eye' for words will develop - it gets easier with every puzzle - also, try combinations that you dont even think are words - you may be surprised

1:24 pm

9 letters! You go!
1:43 pm
locoporgallinas

Hehe, this game is cool...It reminds me of the Quiddler game at www.setgame.com....

krista --
have 41 right now -- haven't worked on it much. The kids seem to think they need a mom or something! ;-D My time to work on this puzzle is really after bed time . . . and then DH calls it a 'colossal waste of time'! HA! I think he only says that b/c he can't spell . . . nothing to do with the fact that I should be mopping my floor now . . .

Like I said the other day...this work/kids stuff has to go. I have words to find! This is really funny for me because I have always ribbed people who sit around playing solitaire, etc. ..hood1999 - but i bet you have done a lot more at work today than I!
2:24 pm

Why won't it take ninnie? Not sure I like this puzzle. Yesterdays was hard but I liked it better.Ony 31 words at 307. Can't see anymore.
5:16 pm
SweetPickle

I believe 'ninny' is with the 'y', not the 'ie'.
5:19 pm
Tolinya

eh it didnt' take that either...
5:34 pm
laura

diad is a word and it won't take that
5:38 pm
Tolinya

what about wipe? it won't take wipe either
5:40 pm
Krista

hey laura (laura b by any chance????) - I tried that one the other day - turns out it's spelled 'dyad!'
5:43 pm
laura

can't do wipe
5:43 pm
Tolinya

Well it won't take druid either....
5:43 pm
laura

HEY K... on so quickly I see :-) See how your bad habits spread :-) Just hanging out waiting for stragglers
5:43 pm
Tolinya

ok so 'splain why i can't do wipe? (maybe that's the part of this i'm not getting)
5:46 pm
Krista

Tolinya - the letters have to "touch;" you can't skip letters...LAURA - i'm just taking a break from u-know-what till my dinner gets here. >:( And I knew you'd be back. This is how it starts. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
5:48 pm
laura

So K.. total words? total points? Did you leave your pasta salad for me for my dinner?
5:50 pm
BooMom

The letters in wipe are not all connected in a line. It doesn't have to be a straight line, but they all have to be connected, one right after the other. Wipe is not.
5:51 pm
Krista

You're welcome to polish it off - carbs and all. I'm up to 54/580. Certainly don't have any 72-pt words!

BTW.. you had a straggling fax
5:56 pm
laura

thought to self (man, I could be at the track instead of number crunching)
5:58 pm
Tolinya

Ok..fine be difficult...now I really have to think...lol!
5:59 pm
Tolinya

And number crunching? Don't you mean letter crunching???
6:00 pm

I did and she said it was OK because I make big bucks... HA HA HA HA HA
6:03 pm

Hey I still haven't resorted to looking at that website. And I think I'm on a roll just got 5 words...see what happens when people tell you how the "game" works....lol

6:23 pm
Christine

Marianne -- are you here?
I think my brain is just toooo tired - only 56 words for 634 points and the longest words are only sixes.... hmmm, I used to think I had a good vocabulary - perhaps those hours doing crossword puzzles were not as productive as I thougt.
6:45 pm

Duh! The scoring recognizes it as 2 letters, but a non-babble program wouldn't :-P

I feel silly not catching that earlier! :-P
