No

12:26 am

m9f9l

12:26 am

m9f9l

SO far....

12:26 am

hurshy

9 left here

12:27 am

m9f9l

Yeah, well I expect that from you :-)

12:28 am

hurshy

if i got one more S i'd have grey perimeter

12:28 am

hurshy

yeah there it is

12:28 am

hurshy

woot

12:28 am

Pinikula

90 to go here! Yeah, I'm catching up to hurshy and m9f9l ... just might do so by sometime tomorrow at the rate I'm going! LOL

12:29 am

hurshy

there's always tomorrow for dreams to come true... tomorrow is not far aaaaaaaaaaway

12:30 am

cybernan

no where near that sharp, but down to 40 so calling it a night -- see you tomorrow :)

12:30 am

Pinikula

oh, yeah, sing it girl...*tomorrow, tomorrow, I'll catch ya tomorrow* (in my best Annie voice)

12:32 am

m9f9l

I need two S and one R for perimeter

12:32 am

Pinikula

need the middle M for nbt and a 7 for nbs

12:33 am

hurshy

do you have sr4

12:33 am

m9f9l

yes

12:33 am

hurshy

mo6/7 fictional children may be described as lovable little mo7

12:33 am

Pinikula

S R ?

12:34 am

m9f9l

Now one of each

12:34 am

Pinikula

thx hurshy!

12:34 am

Pinikula

oooh, got the sr4, too...odd

12:34 am

m9f9l

now just the one s

12:34 am

hurshy

sr4 comes up reasonably often

12:35 am

m9f9l

got it. was a pl

12:35 am

m9f9l

yup.

12:35 am

Pinikula

nbs / nbt

12:36 am

hurshy

2 left, P and T

12:36 am

m9f9l

Nice! 30 here

12:37 am

Pinikula

... and dozing off, so best go find my pillows...nytol! :)

12:37 am

hurshy

i always think petri dish, petri should count

12:38 am

m9f9l

Proper probably

12:39 am

hurshy

but being named after someone hasn't prevented other things from counting when they refer to a common noun like that

12:39 am

hurshy

for instance, ohms counts

12:40 am

jessmom

FWs

12:40 am

hurshy

well done, jess!

12:40 am

hurshy

tell me this, are there 3 t5 or just 2?

12:40 am

dizgrannie

FWs

12:40 am

m9f9l

Ah.. but a Petri dish is capitalized because it's HIS dish. Whereas an ohm is just called an ohm. :-)

12:40 am

jessmom

thanks hurshy

12:41 am

jessmom

2

12:41 am

hurshy

ok so then p5 and t4

12:41 am

dfmchfhf

ohm is less so because it's standalone, "petri" as a word means nothing probably

12:42 am

dizgrannie

hurshy, te 4/5

12:42 am

m9f9l

28 to go.. on 6 tiles

12:42 am

hurshy

to me, being made into an adjective seems like MORE of a justification for treating it as common, not less

12:42 am

hurshy

yeah thanks diz, i found it, just workin on the P now

12:43 am

hurshy

name that proper noun! british cartoon pig

12:44 am

magazinemom

peppa!

12:44 am

hurshy

ding ding ding!

12:44 am

hurshy

silly missed plural

12:44 am

hurshy

done now

12:45 am

m9f9l

wtg hurshy!!

12:45 am

magazinemom

woohooo hursh!

12:45 am

m9f9l

Don't forget to add "s" huh?

8:44 pm

Jacula

Back to find my final 14. I'd have done it earlier but I was busy and forgot.

8:47 pm

TraderKate

36 here.... I have everything after OM - z.. working backwards can help if needed there

8:47 pm

Jacula

But, hey! I got the first 144 words on my first run through with my morning cuppa.

8:48 pm

Jacula

Thanks Kate - lovely to see you back on here and in other places, btw. I'll have a look first and will yell if I need help.x

8:49 pm

TraderKate

Hugs to you Jacula! Glad to be back in the swing... still catching up on messages etc.

8:49 pm

TraderKate

(one message often generates a 30 minute chat.... it takes time. :)

8:54 pm

Jacula

FIREWORKS *~*~*~*~*

8:55 pm

TraderKate

Congratulations Jackers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quick work there!

8:55 pm

JenMO16

Yeah, Jacula!

8:55 pm

Jacula

It was a matter of finding obvious and silly small words I'd missed before the 2 large mugs of morning tea kicked in.

8:55 pm

TraderKate

haha.... I don

8:56 pm

Jacula

Kate - NW about catching up. We will do in time. I'd better get to bed now. Busy day later.xx

8:56 pm

TraderKate

't even look at the grid until I'm on my second cuppa... and even then I try not to chat.. tyopos abound then.

8:56 pm

JenMO16

well shoot, I have 16 qu words

8:58 pm

JenMO16

I am sure I am missing obvious qu words.

8:58 pm

Jacula

2 more to find then, JenMO16.

8:58 pm

TraderKate

how about the building decorations?

8:59 pm

JenMO16

building decorations?

8:59 pm

Jacula

Or how about the ring-shaped game things you throw?

8:59 pm

TraderKate

fancy brick or stone work that defines corners, rooflines, forners etc....sound like pocket change

9:00 pm

TraderKate

*corners

9:00 pm

Jacula

Jen - the building decoration words sound a bit like small change.

9:00 pm

JenMO16

have those, kate

9:00 pm

JenMO16

Not sure on yours Jacula

9:02 pm

JenMO16

Can you give more, Jac?

9:03 pm

Jacula

Jen - the game words end with a different consonant than Kate's. The best cue I can give you without spelling it out is that the last letter is what begins a British breakfast drink word and also IS the word if you say it out loud.

9:03 pm

Jacula

*cLue, I meant, not cue.

9:04 pm

JenMO16

Must have those

9:04 pm

TraderKate

also available for truly terrible, typo-ridden clues....

9:05 pm

JenMO16

I have those

9:05 pm

TraderKate

are you missing a pair? sing. + pl...

9:06 pm

JenMO16

Not sure, but I would think so...

9:06 pm

TraderKate

you ain't seen nothing like the mighty QU*****

9:06 pm

TraderKate

(singing off key...)

9:06 pm

Jacula

Or the defensive positions? Those add a vowel to 5 word and then make a plural.

9:07 pm

TraderKate

The knights who say Ne were on a QU**** to find the holy gril...

9:07 pm

JenMO16

guess I will go to lickety and plug them in

9:08 pm

TraderKate

*grail

9:08 pm

Jacula

'Come on without! Come on within! You ain't seen nothing like...' Oops! Sorry! Was just singing along with Kate. :)

9:08 pm

JenMO16

have those

9:10 pm

Jacula

There's not much else to clue now, Jen.. qu4/9 - a boggy place? qu5/16 - ' That's q nice, but not lovely'?

9:10 pm

JenMO16

I am missing qu6/27 and qu7/40

9:12 pm

TraderKate

the 5 babies + a vowel and pl

9:12 pm

JenMO16

Got them, guess they are British spellings?

9:12 pm

TraderKate

it's a bay on Lake Ontario ;)

9:12 pm

Jacula

Jen - Those are the defensive positions I clued eariler. Add a vowel to the '5' word and then pluralise the next word. The '5'' word, in case you need help with that, is like what some one cross-eyed has but without the 'S' at the start.

9:13 pm

TraderKate

aJac and I have clues the same pair.

9:14 pm

TraderKate

there's only one QU 7/40

9:14 pm

Jacula

Jen - they date back to French from the 1700s.

9:14 pm

JenMO16

I see

9:15 pm

TraderKate

and now I have learned something! didn't know that Jac!

9:15 pm

Jacula

LOL Kate, y/w.x

9:15 pm

JenMO16

I am down to 86

9:16 pm

TraderKate

:).... I don't always have time or inclination to look up definitions :)

9:16 pm

TraderKate

go Jen go!!!!

9:16 pm

Jacula

I can be around for a bit longer if you need clues, Jen.

9:16 pm

TraderKate

They really will go very quickly Jen... many, many plurals!

9:17 pm

Jacula

I'm a language nerd, Kate, as you know.x

9:17 pm

JenMO16

good

9:17 pm

TraderKate

In regular land, I am too... but far out-stripped here in Babble... you guys are language gurus/gods ;)

9:33 pm

Jacula

I'm signing out now. Happy Babbling to those still fighting the fight.

9:35 pm

10:23 pm

boatierra

There are times where I've completely forgotten about this game and it seems like years go by and suddenly I remember and start playing again. If I'd kept up I'd probably be closer to 5 million. It's rare that I finish a game.

10:25 pm

boatierra

You're not far behind me TraderKate

10:26 pm

TraderKate

I've done the same boatierra, I coe and go, BUT always keep in touch with the Babblers in FB...are you on FB?

10:26 pm

boatierra

10:28 pm

boatierra

I'm really struggling with the eq 8, any clues?

10:28 pm

TraderKate

Do you know about our FB page for aBabblers?
We have a file tied to it .. FB - Babble names and vice versa....in case you're interested you can add yourself into the lists. I will tiny URL the page...

So, you are nice and warm as us northerners are beginning to feel a bit of chill in the air.
