6:54 am
Mal

G'morning Christine How are you?
7:12 am
Christine

Marianne - Goodmorning, Love.... Ijust signed on, again, to see if there was a numbe posted.
How're you doing, on this game? Lotta words, here...
7:15 am
periwinkle

Would someone be kind enough to tell me which R the 10 letter word starts with. :o)
7:17 am
periwinkle

marigold are you here?
7:24 am
Christine

The R on the far left..
7:26 am
periwinkle

Thank you Christine. I will keep trying.
7:27 am
periwinkle

I thought that was the one but the longest word I have so far is 7 letters.
7:32 am
periwinkle

Taking a break. Will be back to look for that 10 letter R word.
7:35 am
Christine

periwinkle - do you have an F7 for 40 points? Add RE
7:38 am
Christine

I'm awa' to ma wee bed... I've been babbling and reading all night, need some sleep.
Did you all remember to say "white rabbits", this morning - and click on the Breast Cancer site?
7:55 am
Mal

sorry Christine will speak ro you later. Marianne
8:23 am
Krista

Shouldn't 'setee' be a word?? But I'm not complaining. Love the vowels!
8:40 am
periwinkle

I'm back. Christine, I don't have an F 7 for 40 points yet. Will try now. Thanks for you help. :)
8:40 am
periwinkle

I meant thanks for your help.
8:41 am
periwinkle

I believe this is the way settee is spelled.
8:45 am
periwinkle

Having trouble finding the F7 for 40 points. Clue please. :)
8:51 am
periwinkle

I also cannot find the 10 letter word starting with R. Clue(s), please. I am getting a headache.
8:51 am

F7 for 40 - think coffee
8:52 am
periwinkle

Thanks, Milly, I will keep trying.
8:52 am
soho72

Haven't seen any breakdown posted. I'm sure there are many more, but in the event this will help anyone:

Bx1, Dx22, Ex15, Fx16, Gx6, Hx3, Ix5, Lx8, Ox3, Rx59, Sx19, Tx19.
176 words, 5.19, 2812.

222/5.2/3646 Does anybody know how many there are supposed to be?
8:59 am
periwinkle

Milly, the coffee clue is not helping me:(
8:59 am
GeneralVanya

Milly, I have that 7 and I don't see where coffee comes into it...
9:00 am
BIA

I have a different F7 for 40 (a mode of transport), but "coffee" doesn't seem to be firing any of my synapses for the F7 serving as the foundation for the R10.
9:00 am
soho72

No idea, but I obviously have a lot more work to do.
9:01 am
BIA

Never mind - the penny dropped on the F7 ... and its related words.
9:04 am
Milly

Maybe you don't have that type of coffee in the US - I'm British.
9:05 am
periwinkle

Are there two F 7's for 40 then. I got the mode of transportation.
9:06 am
Milly

I have the F7 mode of transport, but I can make a 10 out of it. The other F7 for 40 I have can be made into a 10 letter word.
9:07 am
BIA

There are (at least) 2 F7s for 40. As an alternative to the "coffee" clue, perhaps "purification" will help ...
9:07 am
Mal

Hi Milly another Brit here
9:09 am
Milly

Hi Mal. I'm from Portsmouth.

Im a Londoner the weather is great here.

9:30 am

what is giardia?
9:32 am

Anyone else find the 8-letter d-word for 45? It made me giggle.
9:34 am

around 01:30, teehee
9:34 am

If it is the French word for tushy I have that one.
9:36 am

9:38 am
periwinkle

Need another break. See you later.
9:44 am
Christine

peiwonkle - there's an F6 word (27 points) that's the base for the R10... think coffeemaker, or water treatment.
9:46 am
Christine

periwinkle - sorry about mucking-up your name... I need sleep ... this bloody game is too addictive, I can't get away from it.
9:47 am

Christine you have mail
9:52 am

Hey, Little sister, I lost 8pounds since I last saw Dr.Joey (2 months) -- oh, I've also lost another inch, sigh - it's height, not waistline - sigh, again.

10:37 am
Milly

I've got 21x7 and 167 words, but I bet there are more out there.
10:42 am
Christine

Isn't it odd that this dictionary accepts DEERS as the plural of DEER - I always understood there was one word for one or many deer..I got it by noodling, thinking there was an alternate definition, but I guess not. Live & earn through Babbling!
10:44 am

or of course you could end up brain dead Christine.

The two F words I have for 27 are ferrel and ferret. Are either of these a help in finding the 10 letter R word?
12:26 pm
GeneralVanya

No, unless you have ever used a ferret to make coffee ;)
12:27 pm
GeneralVanya

The word in question gives you one 6, one 7, two 8's, two 9's and the elusive 10
12:28 pm
periwinkle

GeneralVanya, Ha, Ha, your response made me laugh. No, I have not used a ferret lately to make coffee. Any other hints for me?

Thanks General, that did it for me. :-)

Hi fixitfmly..sorry baby's sick. Coxsackie?
3:27 pm

Krista --
had to look that word up -- it would be a good one for a babble grid someday! ;-) Yes. Ped says hand, foot & mouth disease is going around -- she's had a fever for a few days & he said her throat looked like it was quite sore, yesterday she had tiny red spots on feet and face -- generally grumpy but nothing tragic, fortunately! ;-) She sleeps w/tylenol and I can babble . . .;-)
3:32 pm
Krista

I only know it because both my kiddies have had it. I was pretty weirded out the first time, because they referred to it as 'hoof and mouth disease.' I thought she had some barnyard malady!
3:34 pm
fixitfmly

DH & I are calling it hoof & mouth too ;-)
3:34 pm
Krista

I'm slowing down at 133...congrats on being listed first a few days ago!
3:35 pm
Krista

LOL! It's right up there with ringworm for savory disease names.
3:38 pm
fixitfmly

that was quite a quirk! -- there were probably more than 20 people who all had the same score. It blew my theory that people with the same score were listed in order they completed on CBT (Central Babble Time) -- b/c I know I finished later than most of the others who had all the words. My 15 min of fame! ;-D
3:44 pm
Krista

Well, hey, fluke or not, I was proud of you. :) Yes, and that order mystery to the list. And it wasn't alphabetical, either, was it? Back to my spaghetti sauce...think I need to come back later with fresh eyes.

i just discovered the game, and am probably losing so badly because i don't have a broad vocab, either that or my teenage brain can't handle the capacity of it all, who knows. i'd probably spend all my summer hours doing this just cause i'm that bored.
