Christine

OMGosh - good thing I believe this is a random selection, or else I'd be really grouchy..... oh yes, I said I wouldn't be playing today........

Karin

I`ve got 8 h`s but not the h for 6!
2:39 am
Kukana

All my five ns are 4-letters, four of them are just 4 points each, the other is 10 points.
2:40 am
4t8

3:27 am
Karin

Found 1 O 4/7 .
3:33 am
4t8

wow! i've been trying combo after combo of o with the v, h, and y. i'ill keep looking.
3:38 am
Karin

Try the o in the middle of the grid .
3:44 am
Kirsty1

I have 8 H's but none of them are for 6 - does a H6 definitely exist? The only reference in the chat I can find is from people looking for it...
3:48 am
4t8

me too. Karin, Thank you. finally! 26/285
3:51 am
Karin

Well done. I`m on 26/301

4t8

g'night all.
4:33 am
Kukana

There are two C-6s, both for 33 points.

27 for 318, exactly the same as the ones posted by 4t8 with the additional c6 at the start of my c's.
6:07 am
Christine

Kirsty - perhaps the word you're looking for is the H5 for 16 points?? not H6??
That's one that eludes me, still.
6:11 am
granadan

Do you colour you hair christine (hint hint)
6:16 am
Kukana

OK, 29 for 348. Is that definitely all? What a strange puzzle.

A-5
C-7
H-8
J-1
N-5
O-1
Y-2
6:17 am
Kirsty1

Thanks Christine - earlier Karin wrote "I`ve got 8 h`s but not the h for 6!" which is what made me wonder...but I certainly can't find one either!

6:18 am
Kukana

Is anyone else getting driven mad by flashing ads down the side of the screen?? (Next to the log) I keep getting a horrible bright red one saying 'WINNER' (ha!) and now there's an even worse one that's bouncing from side to side, also telling me I've won something. It's enough to drive me away from the site altogether :-(
6:21 am
Christine

Granadan -- thanks for the clue, which set me to look for "Nice'n'Easy".... oh, I'm kidding.
But I did get the word, because of your clue... thanks.
Now, H4, N4, N5 and O4 if there's only 28 words.
Onward, Babble soldiers....
6:22 am
granadan

Do a search for something called smilwey central - when downloaded it has a pop swatter which shifts it. If stuck i could send you a link?
6:22 am
granadan

sorry - that should be SMILEY central ;-))
6:28 am
Christine

Aaah, Kukana, I'm a WINNER, here, and at the tope of my email screen, and sometimes on a search engine's screen... and there's a host of people in Nigeria (widows and children of deposed Army Colonels) who want to give me a share of millions of dollars.... but heck, it's like advertising on television, it offsets the cost of the programming, and I don't pay out money to anyone.... I guess that's how Mr.Babble keeps the board free to us.
6:29 am
Atalante

2 As and one of the C 33's to go *sigh* and they will probably take me the rest of the day!
6:30 am
Kukana

Thanks everyone, I don't mind ordinary ads at all, but the flashing ones give me a headache :-( I have the ordinary Google popup-stopper but the one at the side of the log doesn't seem to be a popup. I'll investigate smiley central and see if it helps. I don't know anyone who clicks on popups or bouncy/flashing ads so I should think they'd lose revenue rather than generating it for the site.
6:31 am
Christine

Kirsty - Granadan gave a clue for a'hair color"
Kukana - and SEVENTH c-word???
6:36 am
carmen

I am still trying to find the 'j'. any hint?
6:37 am
Kukana

Yes, 7 c-words.

6 for 33
5 for 14
5 for 14
6 for 33
4 for 12
4 for 9
5 for 20

(the 5 for 20 which was my last one is like the 4 for 9)
6:38 am
Kukana

The j is for 14 points and could be made two ways on the grid!
6:45 am
Christine

Kukana - thank you for the other Cword (now, that looks like a Welsh word, eh?)
6:51 am
Wendrie

I just make my window small enough that I don't see the flashing ad.... just wide enough to see the scores.
6:55 am
Kukana

Wendrie, thanks - so obvious and yet I hadn't thought of it! I sent a message to Playbabble asking them to remove the flashing ads (I've seen other people on other sites complaining as they can apparently cause seizures in epileptics, and migraines in others - all I get is a headache and dizziness but that's bad enough). But in the meantime I'll go for a smaller window which solves the problem perfectly :-)
7:17 am
Christine

Goodnight (?goodmorning) y'all - it's 5:15am, time for my nap.
Still to find, 3 words O for 7, and Ns for 10 and 4.... I'll try late.
The trouble is, if I go to bed with a problem on my mind, I keep waking - often with a word, if not THE word.
8:36 am
Atalante

any clues on the A / 16??? Please????????
8:39 am
Atalante

duh - got it
29! woohoo!
8:41 am
Christine

Think how you feel, when you can't find an obvious word ... not frustrated, but?? (it starts with A in right hand column)
8:42 am
Treble99

Any clues for the J word?
8:43 am
Treble99

Nevermind, got it!
8:47 am
Christine

29 words?
I have four-As, seven-Cs, eight-Hs, one-J, three-Ns (missing ao & 4), missing one-O, and I have two-Ys..... a total of 28 words.....I'm missing one.....
8:59 am
Christine

The dratted O word -- is it common? is it a real word? or is it an undefined thingie, found only by noodling?
9:25 am
Christine

Just taliking to myself.... I found the bloomin' O-word! Still need th 10-point N-word, and the unknown 29th word.
I'll be back, to give myself an update....
10:04 am
claws

Well, this is an anti-climactic puzzle, isn't it?
10:07 am
claws

Christine, there are 5xA
10:32 am
4t8

need the c-33 at the beginning, the 6th c, and an a. what a puzzle this is.
10:37 am
4t8

it's all becoming a mirage.
11:18 am
Christine

4t8 - the first C33 -- think of paying money to the store employee - but you can't quite make THAT word....
Have I further confused you??
11:22 am
soho72

What a great clue!
Did we ever get an answer as to whether one of the Hs is six letters?
11:23 am
Christine

Okay, Math time - my score, so far, is 27/328, and the possible score is 29/348; I know I'm missing N/10, so the A-word should also be worth 10-points... and they must be 5-letter words.... am I right?
11:25 am
jlm_mi

No, both are 4-letter words.
11:26 am
jlm_mi

Actually, it's mathematically impossible to make a 10-point 5-letter word in this puzzle. It would require a 2-point letter.
11:26 am
jlm_mi

Scratch that. I can't add! :-p Still, they're both 4 letters.
11:27 am
4t8

i've just tried to make very strange not-quite-there combos relating to paycheck, cashout, and payout, all beginning with c.
but thank you! i will keep looking.
11:28 am
Christine

Soho - at 6:11am, Granadan posted a clue for the H5 - the other words are for 4-letters.
11:34 am
Christine

4t8 - reread your post.... you were close on one word.
jlm_mi - okay, 4letters=10 points, not 5letters=5 points...
Onward, onward...
11:37 am
soho72

Thanks, Christine. I just stumbled on the H word that I was missing, which brings me to 29 words, and 348 points. Now maybe I can go take care of my house.
11:38 am
Christine

Didja miss me - it's been so long?
I have one A/10points (relating to the sea), is thee another 10point word?
11:41 am
soho72

I have two 10 point A words.
11:48 am
Christine

It's frustrating to be only one word away from a dinky little puzzle. I can handle 4000 point puzzles where I know I'll get about half the words, but this...
11:48 am
Mal

Christine I'm with Marianne. Get off the phone so I can call you please.
11:50 am
soho72

Christine, the word you're missing is a word for an Indian nurse.
11:54 am
stevedallas

29 for 348 finally this is a miserable puzzle
11:57 am
Christine

Soho - thank you, I'd just noodled that into the screen... not really expecting it would take, then I realized it's a real-true-word... who'd have thought it?? Sometimes I just put in letters, without really looking at the word that's made.
So, what will I do with the rest of my day.....
11:59 am
Christine

Oooops (as I see, so often) I forgot to thank all the clue-givers.... thank you.
Does anyone out there need any clues? (Hey, that was one).

12:02 pm
runningforhome

I'm still missing the last a, and three cs (one is for 20, and one is for 33).
12:03 pm
runningforhome

Oops, and one for 14.
12:03 pm
4t8

i always thought the nurse was spelled ayah.
12:08 pm
soho72

It is.
12:08 pm
jlm_mi

4t8 - ????
12:09 pm
parsec

This grid stinks! I'm missing two Hs--16 and a 7, and an nx4. I think my problem may be that I don't color my hair.
12:12 pm
4t8

oh god i'm slow! never saw that a
12:12 pm
4t8

sorry about my Big, Big mouth. :(
12:17 pm
soho72

If that's the woest thing that ever happens in our lives, 4t8, I'd say we'd be pretty fortunate.
12:21 pm
4t8

thanks :)
12:46 pm
Tolinya

woot we're back from our whirlwind trip across the eastern us...must catch up on my babbling...pretty sure my name is no longer on the list of scores...sigh...oh well starting fresh is always nice...mulher is downstairs with the child...hehe....
12:56 pm
Tolinya

thanks for the "good" hint 4t8! lol
1:39 pm
MammaJill

Can you believe it won't take oreo??
1:53 pm
Tolinya

clearly the babble guru's are not "with it"
1:54 pm
Tolinya

ya know i just noticed if i only have the babble puzzle up and my listing i don't get those flashy things on the side of the website...(after reading the posts regarding this)

although my favorite is the one for the search engine related to finding sexy singles in my area.heheh
1:54 pm
dimwit

Evening everyone, I see we have a tricky little puzzle today ! I've managed 14 so far but I'm slowing down! Might need some help from some of you brighter brains! To start, I only have 2 a's so far, nautical and an Indian nanny. Any help with the others?
1:55 pm
Tolinya

ok and i've got 9 words and i've got both those a's...hehe 3 left...
1:56 pm
Tolinya

although according to a post earlier (i think jlm) the points should be 10,16,4,27 and then I think there's the other one for 10 (was posted early enough in the puzzle that I don't think she had them all yet)
1:57 pm
Tolinya

doh my bad it was 4t8...must give proper credit where credit is due...
1:58 pm
MammaJill

For one of the A's, think Romeo and Juliet...Juliet says this to her nurse.
1:58 pm
Tolinya

and just me talking to myself don't know 4t8's gender so sorry if i used the wrong gender (i'm almost positive jlm is a female) but am not sure of 4t8's
2:01 pm
dimwit

I have 2 for 10 each, is the Juliet one different from the Indian nanny/nurse then ?
2:02 pm
Tolinya

ok got that 4 pt from the juliet clue..didn't know juliet said that hehe...
2:03 pm
Tolinya

yeah so i think the a's points should be 10,4,10,16,27
2:13 pm
dimwit

still cannot get the a for 27, any clues ?
2:21 pm
true_felicity

Pah. 26 words. I give up.
2:25 pm
stevedallas

Remind me not to open the game if I'm not about to play it. Seems it definitely affects your rankings! As if it really matters!!
2:32 pm
dimwit

till hoping for a clue to the a x27 - Please ?
2:45 pm
MammaJill

dimwit, the first 3 letters of it are in your second to last post
2:49 pm
dimwit

Super thanks I think I look too hard sometimes ! 6 to go :)
3:10 pm
MammaJill

any hints for 1st c for 33?
3:16 pm
dimwit

Christine had a good clue at 11.18 I think,

are there 2 for 33 then?
3:22 pm
dimwit

is the o 4 letters or 5, I see there are 2 conflicting messages.
3:25 pm
parsec

dimwit...there are two c/33s, and the o is a 4.
3:26 pm
runningforhome

O-word is 4 letters and similar to the name of a state.
3:29 pm
dimwit

According to the scrabble dictionary, there is another o word, ohone, that fits the grid, that isn't accepted, yet the one that is , has no meaning ! Pity they don't use Chambers or Oxford, it would be a better test of word power I think!
3:41 pm
runningforhome

I cannot find the other 6/33! It's the only word I'm missing! Even wordfinder is no help...
3:45 pm
dimwit

My c's so far are, 33, 14, 14, 9, 20 if there is another 33, how many letters is the 7th?
Any clues at all ? Like which c perhaps ?
I have 4 words to go.
3:48 pm
dimwit

Forget that, I just found one for 12 !
3:52 pm
parsec

you're missing two Cs, both using the same C to start. for the second 33, think of things that are in Arizona.
3:53 pm
Tolinya

the 2 c's i just got are related to a color
3:54 pm
Tolinya

not too much of those things in arizona..at least not around phoenix...try southwestern california...there's even a town named it...hint hint near a place the marines call 29 stumps
3:54 pm
Treble99

Finally done it! 29 for 348
3:58 pm
dimwit

I know you mean well but I'm Welsh not American...........
4:06 pm
parsec

okay, then try looking at your c/14s--add a letter into one of them, and you'll have the 33.
4:09 pm
Tolinya

hmmmm....this word is similar to a common desert plant can be certain color and is similar to a sound you make when tasting bad food....
4:09 pm
Tolinya

i need some hints for the c 14's please
4:14 pm
parsec

finding the one 14 will show you the other.
4:15 pm
Wendrie

I have seven h words all 4 letters getting an amazing 7 points... any hints on the last remaining h word???? That will be it for the puzzle too!
4:17 pm
dimwit

the h for 5 is the hair colouring one...
thanks for the c help I 'm looking now.....
4:19 pm
dimwit

Got the c, thanks all, a deep valley I would have said - searching google for the 29 stumps took me into very strange territory, but it didn't mention that word!
4:19 pm
Wendrie

At 04:17 pm dimwit said...
the h for 5 is the hair colouring one...

Thanks as soon as I read that - it jumped out! Finally.... that should be it :)
4:26 pm
dimwit

I have 2 words to go and 5 minutes to find them before I have to take a break...( hubby wants PC).. an n and a y. I have the web y, any clue for the other ?
4:28 pm
runningforhome

FINALLY found the other 6/33. What a stupid word.
Done now, hopefully there's a better grid tomorrow.
4:47 pm
Tolinya

woot got the h5 hehe and dim i swear we were talking about a y word...DOH!!! sorry about that..misdirecting hints...
4:47 pm
Tolinya

dim thanks for the y hint...on the web one
4:48 pm
Tolinya

my clue for the 29 stumps, etc were the clues for your missing y
4:48 pm
Tolinya

think agave
4:58 pm
Tolinya

15 words so far...14 to go and only 6 more hours..sigh think i'll get it???
5:02 pm
Tolinya

ok i found the deep valley c for 33 then found the 5 for 14 related to it..DOH do we have a clue for the other c 5 for 14?
6:53 pm
dimwit

Right I'm back ! Thanks Tolyina, I got that y word as soon as I just read your messages! odd roundabout that it gave me the c too! (and thanks everyone else)
I did think that it was spelt with a double c though, tha'ts why I missed it before. That leaves me with just one to get, an n - are they all 4's ? so far 3 of them start with the same two letters- does that go for another ?
6:55 pm
dimwit

Sorry T missed your plea for the c14 - have you got it yet ?
7:06 pm
dimwit

Is anyone there ?
7:17 pm
4t8

hi dimwit; i'm back.
the first c-33 is driving me batty and encarta isn't helping.
7:19 pm
dimwit

Thank goodness, I thought I was all alone!
which c 33 do you have ?
7:21 pm

Christine at 11.18 had the best clue for the c you just need to take out one letter from that word. I have one word left, one of the ns for 10 I've tried so many combinations!

Oh thank you , thank you, I have it ! These words look so easy when you have them, I was looking for a 5 letter, must have missed the count in the messages somewhere! Can I help you with anything else before I go 4t8? :)
7:32 pm
4t8

yay! happy for you. :)

um...does the c mean anything? i was told one of my three c's are close...i guess this is pretty specific, but is the 4 point letter an h or a y?

thanks! i have that one. it's the c-33 i don't. that's okay; i'm one away. otherwise, yes, rowing away to blue churches in arizona would be a great idea.

It's easiest if you concentrate on the word it isn't, the person who takes your money at the checkout, the bank, the cafe, with one letter missing that isnt in the grid anyway.....
