12:37 am

You mean 147 in total? That can be done... I have no 8 yet, so I am glad to know there is one!
12:49 am
periwinkle

marigold, are you playing?

10:48 am
fit1

I mean of course the other 7 :)
10:51 am

10:54 am
Atalante

10:55 am
Atalante

10:57 am
bigbirdboss

10:58 am
bigbirdboss

I'm always a day late and a dollar short :-)
11:00 am
fit1

thanks big. I had just found it when you validated me with your answer :)
11:11 am
TsHMS

i keep seeing seqouyah
argh!
11:13 am
periwinkle

clues for the t and q seven would be appreciated.
11:13 am
Kukana

I keep wanting to make turqoise! So close...
11:16 am
TsHMS

best word is an H5/18!
i need serious clues people, chop, chop
Oh yeah and tell me if you voted for BUSH!
11:18 am
TsHMS

thanks for saying turqoise, now i see it as well! (message 2 kukana!)
11:21 am
TsHMS

now a T6/21
it still sux!
11:22 am
Atalante

O_O can you do an English translation of that clue?? lol
11:22 am
fit1

peri, the Q is a past tense of a 5. The t is a weird word. It's starts with a four letter word meaning exam, and the last 3 letters are the same as a singer's. Sorry I can't do better :(
11:26 am
periwinkle

fit1, thanks, I found the Q word before your post. Not sure about the T word. Got the first part. Is the singer male or female. That may help me.
11:29 am
periwinkle

found the T/7 by noodling. It means tortoise or shield.
11:42 am
periwinkle

I have 6 A words. All 4 letters except one with 5 letters. ai4x2, ai5, anx4, asx4 and atx4. What am I missing?
11:43 am
Atalante

aha! thanks Periwinkle - I got it immediately when you said tortoise!
11:47 am
fit1

There is an AN for 5
11:48 am
fit1

Also and AE for 4
11:56 am
periwinkle

stuck at 95. will take a break. see you later.
1:21 pm
sprite

The A's:
Ae4
Ai4 x3
Ai5
An4 x3
An5 x2
An6
As4
At4

I'll do a letter count.
1:25 pm
sprite

Ewenme, all you are missing are 3 N's. For the rest your stats are complete.
1:30 pm
sprite

For wordlengths:
I do not have a 9, only an 8 (Q).
2x 7 (QT)
19x 6
41x 5
84x 4
1:30 pm
smoove

I have a q8. Think superlative.
1:51 pm
Treble99

sprite are the stats correct if so, is there a 9
1:57 pm
Treble99

sprite usually does the stats thats why I asked, any clues for the T7 would be appreciated.
2:27 pm
sprite

Correction: I never do stats. I tried it once, with a grid from the archives, and couldn't find a way to copy the words without seeing at least a few of them. So I stay away from the solver.

I think the stats are correct now. No 9, but an 8.

As for the T7, these are the defs:
A Roman siege device consisting of a movable screen protecting the besiegers' approach to a wall; or
a cover formed by the overlapping shields of besiegers and held over their heads.
But at 11.22 am fit1 had a nice clue that gives you at least the first 4 letters.
2:34 pm
Treble99

sorry sprite, who usually does the stats
2:38 pm
Taglos

You just normally finish first and are quite helpful Sprite :)

Missing a T5 12 to finish. Have a Ti5 12
2:38 pm
sprite

Often it is shortseer/goforit.
Sometimes Krys10 too. Krys10 used wordracer before, but I believe she uses another one now, and found out how to do a letter count without seeing the words.

All I can do, sometimes, is counting what I have. Since runningforhome said (at 12.35 am) that there are 147 words today, I thought my count would be complete.
2:39 pm
sprite

The other T5/12 is Te, and it is a funny word that comes up in babble grids quite a lot.
2:40 pm
Treble99

thanks for the clues sprite
2:42 pm
Taglos

Wow, you're right that is a funny little word. Have to remember that one the next time I play scrabble and have an abundance of vowels.
5:25 pm
onyx

ha! if you are out there, our school mascot is in this puzzle!!!
5:41 pm
sprite

Now how will I get to sleep when you make me so curious about that school mascotte thing!
5:45 pm
onyx

the school legend has it that the school mascot, a large brass thing in front of the library, would fly if a virgin were ever to graduate. the mascot was a land turtle and no, the statue has yet to fly...: )
7:18 pm
runningforhome

Onyx, I hope that isn't a high school mascot... :p
8:08 pm
onyx

nope it wasn't.
9:07 pm
ewenme

Thank you Sprite...finally got those last three Ns. Sometimes it helps to go away and come back...with lots of help from friends.
9:40 pm
Krys10

Hi guys - sorry no stats - been away on vacation, will be back in action tomorrow. This one looked fun! :)
10:26 pm
fit1

Onyx, we had a similar story at the University of Michigan. We had two lions in front of our library, and if they roared, a virgin was passing. They never roared :)
