I know I am! I also enjoy a good lapdante when I go to the strip club. ;)
12:44 am

my anteeter is an avid anteek collector

.... i might just have given a T6 away with this post ;)
12:46 am
runningforhome

There are 123 words.
So far I have 71/4.61/782. Best is an 8 for 50, plural of a 7 for 36.
12:47 am
runningforhome

Make that 73/4.66/832.
12:51 am
runningforhome

Alright, I'm really going to bed now, with 80/4.65/933.
1:02 am
boatierra

Un-freakin'-believeable that this game will not accept 'fest.' That Enable dictionary needs to get its thumb out of its bee-hind.
1:05 am
boatierra

Won't take 'taur' either. Arg!!
1:16 am
Krys10

I just introduced a friend to this game an hour ago, and right away we found an 8/45 and a 7/32. Beginner's luck!

i'm too busy trying to enter mulhermujer's failed words to find any good stuff for myself.
Anyway, i'm always a slow starter.
My specialty is the marathon rather than the 100 meter dash ;)
1:25 am

I have finished the N's (unless jlm tells me there are more).
I have 3 N's

I have 4 n`s.
1:53 am

Nooo!
N4 N6 N7 , 1 of each
What have i missed?
Sheesh. I'm usually sooo careful with the 1st few letters.
How could i have missed something already?
1:58 am

Another N4
No idea what it means
2:45 am
angeelu

65/701 - stuck now... 1 x 8, and 2 x 7's.
4:10 am

Sorry I went back to bed . My N`s are ; 1x7 , 1x6 , 2x4 .
5:08 am
shortseer

@ Karin
That's ok i'm only checking here intermittently ... and i did find the N4 pretty fast (with a bit of random typing).
It's amazing how much easier it is when you KNOW a word exists in there somewhere. :)

I've got 1xL , 4xP , 11x R and 2x W.
Anybody got more?
5:18 am
periwinkle

I can't get into the archives for Sept. what was the F6 word yesterday: stuffed especially with mushrooms?
5:21 am

far·ci or far·cie (fär-s)
adj.
Stuffed, especially with finely ground meat: mushrooms farci.


[French, past participle of farcir, to stuff, from Old French, from Latin farcre.]

Thanks shortseer, never heard of the word.
5:42 am

mulhermujer, just curious, your list says that you have 8 B words, but there is no B in this puzzle. At least in the one I am looking at :)
5:46 am
periwinkle

how many words are in this puzzle?
5:58 am
shortseer

At 12:46 am runningforhome said...
There are 123 words

And mulhermujer said good night several hours ago, so i'll respond for her by suggesting that the B should be a D

deta : missing letter of the greek alphabet

detau: to remove the 19th letter of the greek alphabet


Well why not? ;)

I WAS surprised that a G4 word related to an old Infocom game worked!
"It is very dark. If you continue you are likely to be eaten by a G4."

Aaaanything is possible
12:14 pm
jlm_mi

There are 123 words, and I know the starting letters for them all, but only the lengths for 122 of them, but I can guess:

3x8
4x7
15x6
34x5
66x4

4xA
19xD
7xE
10xF
16xG
5xK
1xL
4xN (solver only had 3)
4xP
11xR
11xS
26xT
3xU
2xW

Since the N word was missng in solver, I'd guess it's one of the 4-letter N words, so I'd guess there are really 67x4.

Oh, and that 4-letter N word is a bread served with Indian food, for shortseer. :)
12:24 pm
shortseer

yes .. i did finally go and look it up.
I obviously need to take a course in ethnic foodstuffs ;)
12:25 pm
fnurt

It was hard to find 4 P's. I confess I tried 'pawnder'. :)
12:38 pm

Noboody has found the 16th G ?
I've got 15xG :
1x Ga4, 5x Ge4, 1xGo4 , 2xGr4
2x Ge5, 3x Gr5
1x Gr6

Oops ... i thought i'd entered that Do4 !

Thanks!
12:55 pm
runningforhome

shortseer, I have 4 GA-5s.
12:57 pm
jlm_mi

RFH - Are you sure? 4 words that are each 5 letters long beginning with GA? That doesn't seem possible, and would make many more G words than the solver had.
1:03 pm
runningforhome

Oops, I meant GR-5s, not GA.
1:04 pm
shortseer

oh gawd!
i will head over to the other G
;)
1:44 pm

Does anyone have all 5 K-words? I've got three; a 4/11, a 4/8, and a 5/18 and I can't find any more, even after resorting to a2zwordfinder!
1:46 pm

There's a K 6-30
1:58 pm

There is another 4 for 8 from which the 6 for 30 comes. Protein or something I think.

5:19 pm

Just come back again to work on the troublesome T's and a stubborn S ...

Clue for the D's ...

D7/8 verb. to do with washing or cleansing (a wound, for example)

It's not a word i've ever used in this form. But everyone will know a longer noun form of the word

runningforhome

Hahah, thanks shortseer.
6:42 pm
youngster

shortseer, ashamed to say (being Scottish) I can't find S5/7 sequence - related to piercing with a sharp object (scottish)
6:49 pm
runningforhome

Youngster, it sounds very similar to something you'd use to kill a vampire...
6:52 pm
shortseer

@youngster:
To pierce with a sharp instrument; hence, to stitch; to sew; also, to fix; to fasten. [Scot.]

That's what it says in the dictionary.
I suppose it's pronounced somewhat like "stick" ?

Just managed to come back for a bit, lots of other things taking me away this month. What is the second letter of the other a combo as I'm sure I've tried everything !:(
7:11 pm

Goodnight and goodluck all; I may be around to give hints if anyone needs them.

8:12 pm
Christine

Periwinkle - darn! I have that.... I spent 10minutes, looking for words with a military slant. And I still can't find the geometric shape -- triangle, trapezoid, tube -- don't nuthin' fit.
8:14 pm
periwinkle

Christine, Don't feel bad, my sister, marigold and I cannot find the geometric shape either. I have used my crossword dictionary and Google and she has tried AskJeeves. I give up on that one.
8:20 pm
dimwit

I've got one that means conical, could that be what you are looking for ?
8:22 pm
shortseer

paying a fleeting visit ...
perhaps my T6 clue was too obscure
(well of course it was)

T6 adj. cylindrical and tapering (particularly applied to plant parts)

Not a word most of us will be familiar with, 'cept the botanists i suppose
8:23 pm
periwinkle

dimwit, I think so. Would you be kind enough to tell me the second letter?
8:25 pm
Christine

Yup, I googled the term, and there's nothing to help us. I too am giving up on that one.
I read the list, and realized I had many of the words (yay, for me), but a couple I'd passed over, because of the spelling - the shrine, for example.
I think it's time for dinner (or lunch or b'fast - just realized I've not eatenand it's almost 6:30pm)... back late with a full tummy/reactivated brain.
8:26 pm
dimwit

its e - you need to start by thinking of stems that mean three, like tre... etc-
8:31 pm
periwinkle

shortseer, Your second clue for the elusive T word was much more helpful. Thanks.
8:31 pm

what's this about a shrine ? what letter does it begin with ?
8:33 pm

8:36 pm

8:48 pm

There is a 4 letter S word that comes before the beginning of your list. It's a common word.
8:51 pm

9:06 pm
dimwit

My r's are 5 x 10 5 x12 4 x7 4 x 8 4 x4 5 x12 6 x18 5 x 10 4 x5 I believe I am missing 2 ? What lengths are they and where do they come in my list ?
