Sorry, it's not a clue. There are two clues at the beginning of the chat and onyx has a clue at 1:15.

Thank you shortseer!

inaniloquent,
i used the degas clue cause i figured that was the quickest way to get to the point.....
10:38 am

i keep seeing 'shrieked' ;-P
10:40 am
shortseer

The 8's

A8 ... those that are counselled
D8 ... abandoned
D8 ... most nerdy
H8 ... doctrines at variance with established religious beliefs
S8 ... most thin/transparent (of material)

another 8 ... ?
10:42 am
Daisy

*grump* No way are there 9 As. I only have 3 and have tried every freaking combination. I hate words that start with vowels.
10:44 am
berekah

Daisy, I agreed with you until I read shortseers clues: once you get the 8-letter word, there are 5 words that connect with it!! Thanks, shortseer! Your clues were fabulous! Can't help you with what's missing, though. I'll keep looking.
10:44 am
fnurt

6 of the As come from the same A6/30.
10:45 am
shortseer

i .. errr ... counsel you to work on the A8 ... that'll give you 6 of the A's
10:49 am
Daisy

Doh! Got 'em. thanks again. It's so weird when you can't see an obvious word series and then it jumps out at you.
10:49 am
berekah

so now I'm one A short. Got the 6 related, and then two other related words...is the final one related to the pair, or is it independent?
10:53 am
fixitfmly

shortseer --
thanks for the clues! I was missing 3 of the As b/c I was focused on the bottom of the grid -- hard to find new words when you keep looking in the same pattern. lol! ;-)
10:55 am
athena

i rarely chat, but i have to thank everyone for the clues! you rawk! \m/
11:01 am

A6 ... a verb tense in some languages (classical Greek and Sanskrit) expressing action (especially past action) without indicating its completion or continuation

can anyone help with the missing S's ?
11:02 am
Daisy

Berekah, I only got the final A by chance. It's not related to the other two. It's an Ao6.
11:04 am
sprite

This is a hard one, isn't it? Or am I having a very bad day? Haven't even 100 words yet and already I have problems finding new ones!
11:04 am
berekah

thanks, daisy and shortseer. Got it :-)
11:05 am
berekah

you're not alone, sprite, I think this one's hard too. Occasionally I'll find a word that will help trigger a bunch of words, but then there's a long time before I find another!
11:07 am

Thanks Berekah, that makes me feel a little better. The clues are great, by the way!

There is also a 7/R/40 that I don't think has been mentioned.
12:09 pm

The 7's :

2x D7 ... to do with removing the powdery residue when something is burned?
D7 ... abandons

K7 ... falcon

SH7 ... swerved from course
SH7 ... arab prince
V7 ... nullifiers

19 out of 20

jlm_mi's 7/R/40 <--- the 20th one
12:14 pm
jlm_mi

The R/7/40 is to fix a shoe and it comes after the moisture removal ones but before the germination.

I was trying to think waaaay to technically when searching for the germination one, and I even had the related 6. Then it hit me smack across the face. :-D
12:19 pm
shortseer

well it it was awfully had to come up with a clue without using the actual word
;)
12:22 pm
jlm_mi

It was a good clue. I just like to make things too complicated. :)

I can help with one of your missing S words. I have SH5x5.
12:24 pm

I also have SE5x6.
12:27 pm

1:07 pm

well if you can't help me, i hope my list can help you ;)
1:08 pm
sprite

It certainly does! Wouldn't come far with this grid without all those beautiful lists and clues - thank you all. :-D
1:13 pm
jlm_mi

Unfortunately, I have the same R distribution as you do.

But, I'm curious about my very first RE6 word. If it's the same as yours, maybe you can help me make sense of it. I'm assuming it's a verb, of the I re-xxxx form. Why couldn't you add an S to the end to get He re-xxxxs? Aaah - The mysteries of babble.

I can help with A, i, K, L, T and V words, and am close on some of the others if you want to compare.
1:14 pm
parsec

I'm also working on R's--So far my only difference is Re4x9, but I'll keep you posted =)
1:20 pm
inaniloquent

I feel like I'm the only person who is spelling the Arab prince with 6 letters instead of 7. What's the point value for the S&?
1:20 pm
inaniloquent

I mean five letters. On a good day I can count *and* spell!
1:21 pm
berekah

I did that for a while too...finally googled the definition and got the alternative spelling. It's pronounced the same way, just spelled slightly differently.
1:23 pm
berekah

7/52, 8/70
never mind my other post, it's for the 6-letter variation (yeah, there is one)
1:24 pm
jlm_mi

Actually, there is a 5-letter Arab leader (for 24 points) that is totally a different word from the one used to make the 7 and 8. The 7 and 8 are for 52 and 70 points, respectively. fnurt's 11:28 clue may point you in the right direction, with a word that sounds similar to this prince. :)
1:25 pm
jlm_mi

berekah - There's a 6-letter variation? Of the 7/8 arab prince combo? How many points does it have?
1:25 pm
inaniloquent

ah hA! it was the wrong prince. thanks ;)
1:25 pm
berekah

Yeah, I really wish we could edit. Ignore my posts completely :-)

I just found a 10th Re4.
1:27 pm
berekah

sorry, inaniloquent and jlm. I was TOTALLY wrong. From beginning to end.
But I did find a 10th re4. That one I'm confident on:-)
1:29 pm
jlm_mi

That's definitely a help! :-D It leaves only 2 R words unaccounted for.
1:30 pm
shortseer

At 01:13 pm jlm_mi said...
"But, I'm curious about my very first RE6 word. If it's the same as yours ..."

Hmmm. My first RE6 is currently the shoe repair one.
1:30 pm
granadan

Ive just looked through my list, and its allowed me a word that isnt actually in the puzzle?
1:32 pm
granadan

My first re6 is to *give nutrition to again...*
1:34 pm
sprite

granadan, not even if you go down and left first, and then up again? Some words can go two ways. ;-)
1:34 pm
shortseer

mine too now ;)
1:34 pm
jlm_mi

granadan - That's my first RE6 as well. I thought it would take it with an S on the end, but it won't.

I'd bet the word that "isn't in the puzzle" is just one that is hard to see. It took one I swore it wouldn't, but eventually I saw that it really was there. If you want to give a clue to the word I bet someone can help you see it. :)
1:34 pm
parsec

Okay, this one's for jlm_mi: I'm up to 8xRe6. My first one can't be given the other tense, since it doesn't end next to an S. My second is your shoe repair R6, and my third is clearly not a verb. Does that mean I'm missing one, and there are actually 9?
1:37 pm
parsec

oops, you talked about that already...stupid refresh button...
1:38 pm
jlm_mi

parsec - You're right, I'm blind! :-D The first one can't have an S added to it because it's not in the puzzle. But, here are my RE6 words. I have 7.:

give nutrition to again
fix a shoe
a form of germination that was referred to earlier for the 7s
views again
letter of the hebrew alphabet (plural)
to cover a house again
took a nap
1:40 pm
jlm_mi

Oh, and "to cover a house again" is not a very good definition for that word. I want to mis-pronounce it every time I see it in these puzzles. It would more accurately be "to live in a place".
1:44 pm
shortseer

R6 plant genus
1:46 pm
parsec

the eighth is between the shoe and the germination: it is not an again word. It's a color (my mom is redecorating, which is how I got it) and also apparently a plant word.
1:46 pm
fnurt

There are at least 6 RE5's. I don't know how to describe the 6th one, but imagine the Sex Pistols trying to replace their lead singer.
1:53 pm
granadan

thanks jlm - just made a cuppa and saw it when i got back!
1:58 pm
jlm_mi

FYI, if it's the word I'm thinking of, it means the oil left after petroleum has been distilled. Is that the Sex Pistols one, fnurt?
1:58 pm
sprite

I just cannot find that shoefix-word! Is it common or not?
2:00 pm
shortseer

thinks of shoe parts
... something that might need repair if it was down at the ....
2:00 pm
granadan

Its a common phrase - bet you already have the root H4
2:01 pm
jlm_mi

It's something you'd have to take your shoe to a cobbler to have done, and it's much more likely to be done on a woman's shoe than on a man's.
2:01 pm
sprite

Thank you both! How can I be so blind?
2:02 pm
sprite

Eh... thank you, all three! *lol* There are always more messages after I post one than I expect...
2:07 pm
shortseer

Back to the sex pistols
i'm stumped.
I have a ... err .. recurring Mr Vicious 1st name word (RE5).
No 6-letter word that i can see.
2:07 pm
jlm_mi

shortseer - the sex pistols clue was for a 5-letter word.
2:11 pm
parsec

That last Ro4 is driving me nuts. I have a verb, a plural, then a noun. help?
2:11 pm
shortseer

oh!
*goes back to practising how to count*
lol
2:11 pm
jlm_mi

There's a noun that is a homonym with the first word on your list, I think.
2:12 pm
jlm_mi

Sorry, that should be homoPHONE. :-D
2:12 pm
parsec

wait, nevermind, I never put in the other noun i found...You should probably ignore everything I post today, too =)

2:38 pm
jlm_mi

Nevermind. It was a Di6 that I was missing.
2:45 pm
jlm_mi

So, that leaves me missing just one S word for 6 letters. The S/6 words that I have so far are;

21 - looks like a word meaning "grabbed" or "took" but with a different letter in the middle. No definition.
18 - a person who would do the previous grabbing
18 - most dry (not a common word)
27 - a type of curtains
30 - tears into small pieces

It's was in my dictionary.
Not in wordfinder.

he4x9
he5x7
he7
he8x2
Any idea what I'm missing?
5:00 pm

another He7

And I only have one H8?

oops, I meant one h8, two h7s. The second seven is one of the two I'm missing.
Thanks.

berekah, May I have a clue for your 8 letter h words, please
5:02 pm
periwinkle

I have one he 7.
5:03 pm

And one He6.
5:03 pm
berekah

Periwinkle, there's a list of clues for all the 8-letter words at 10:40 a.m.
And I was wrong, there's only one H8.
5:04 pm
sprite

Which He7 do you have? The past tense one?
5:05 pm
periwinkle

berekah, thanks, I will check the log.
5:06 pm
periwinkle

sprite, yes, the past tense h7, may I have a clue for the other h7?
5:06 pm
berekah

I just found the past tense one.
Is it at ALL like the second 7-letter one? I am totally stumped by that one.
5:07 pm
berekah

ignore me again...I'm talking about things totally different from reality.

I have the past-tense 7 too and can't figure out the other one.
5:07 pm
periwinkle

May I have a clue for the H8 also please?
5:08 pm
sprite

No, it is more like the H8-one. Starts with the first 4 letters of it.
And it sounds like a biblical king.
5:09 pm
sprite

More or less, that is. ;)
5:10 pm
berekah

Thanks! That's what I needed!
Now back to the silly Ss...I have all but 5. I know the stats, but can't figure out/guess the missing words. Back to noodling (for another 10 minutes and then I'm outta here)
:)

the two R7's that have to do with re-drying-out elude me. Any way to hint me without giving them away?
5:13 pm
berekah

They really did almost give them away ;-)
(and yes, that's your clue)
5:14 pm
sprite

Those 2 R's drove me crazy too. And when I found them, I hit myself over the head. Read your own post over carefully, inaliloquent. You almost gave them away yourself. ;P

duh, i feel dumb. i was all wrapped up in something with an h, a la rehydrating. thanks! next client's arrival is imminent, so i'm done for the day.
5:15 pm
berekah

How about the S7 meaning Swerved from Course? Is there any other definition I could go by? Or another great "sounds like" clue? :-)
5:16 pm
sprite

Sounds a bit like what people do when they get excited. Past tense.
5:17 pm
sprite

Excited and enthusiastic, I should say.
5:24 pm
berekah

Thanks...but it's time to go and I still can't get it. I'll have to look at your list tomorrow to see what the word was :-)
Thanks for your help! I'm at 230 words and done for the night.
5:26 pm
sprite

229 and I should follow your example.
Think of a sound, tomorrow, for that Sh7, when you look at my "sounds-like" clue. ;)
5:26 pm
sprite

Or take a S5/16 and build from there.

D8 ... abandoned
D8 ... most nerdy
H8 ... doctrines at variance with established religious beliefs

minski --
different word altogether but begins with the same three letters

At 03:48 pm sprite said...

Treble99, there are some clues in the log. If they aren't any help: it makes me think of the wild west law upholders. ;)

Another meaning (for swerved from the course) could be a finer fabric....

That's it for me.
The Red Sox just lost again.
