MollyL

January two oh (new game, how many ways can the date of the Inauguration be said)

5:15 am

MollyL

Speaking of games, today flash player is officially dead. How many of you lost games that you played that were flash supported?

5:38 am

mattygroves

Haaa - blame the lag in people's chog updating ;) I shall no doubt notice the death of Flash - I've sometimes played point and click escape games, the vast majority of which were flash

5:40 am

ivesy3

i play jigsaw worlds annd they changed it so dont need flash.. so far the soiltiare game is still running.

Thank you so much!

7:37 am

Judi

Good morning, all.

7:39 am

BzznBea

Good morning, Judi.

7:40 am

Jeanius421

Can someone explain this to me. Looking at yesterday's list in archive, there is a two word answer "that's it" and the word relationship, which I don't think could be in that puzzle.

7:42 am

BzznBea

Jean, I looked at the word list and I do not see "that's it" in it.

7:43 am

MollyL

Yeah, I don't understand the question

7:44 am

Jeanius421

It's between siena and sines, oddly

7:44 am

MollyL

And there is no "relationship" in yesterday's chat

7:45 am

Jeanius421

not in chat, on word list in archives Molly

7:45 am

BzznBea

I'm not seeing it. Sorry.

7:46 am

MollyL

In between sienna and sines is the word sine. That is all I see.

7:46 am

ChampFit

Me too. Just got here and checked.

7:46 am

MollyL

I'm not sure I understand how an "answer" can be in the word list.

7:47 am

Jeanius421

I wish I could screen print it.

7:48 am

Jeanius421

In the archives word list am I the only one who sees relationship?

7:50 am

ChampFit

I didn't see anything "extra" in the list.

7:51 am

Buggie

On this site, you click Archives, then select yesterday (11th), then click on View Word List and you’re seeing "that’s it" and "relationship"? I’m not seeing either

7:57 am

MollyL

I don't understand why only one person is seeing this

7:59 am

Judi

We don't have the right super power, Molls.

8:00 am

MollyL

Hmm, I suspected as much

8:01 am

Judi

Either that, or there is a severe coffee shortage.

8:04 am

Buggie

it could be some odd browser extension that replaces words, though I can’t think of any that would do that

8:04 am

MollyL

Oh hush Judi or that will be the next thing people start hoarding. (If they have room next to all the toilet paper)

8:05 am

MollyL

Just think how ugly it would get if the coffee shelves at the grocery store were empty. *Shudders

8:13 am

Judi

That would be armageddon for sure.

8:21 am

hokie carla

I was about to humblebrag about finishing the i and then I noticed there was a 3rd one and I can only find one there. :(

8:21 am

hokie carla

more coffee

8:22 am

MollyL

Humblebrag?

8:22 am

hokie carla

that's an internet thing. it's pretty old, surprised it never made it here.

8:24 am

hokie carla

it's even in the dictionary (though of course not enable)

8:26 am

player girl

Anyone have help for me with the Y, the N in the middle column or the I in the bottom row. Feel like my head is filled with cement today.

8:26 am

hokie carla

the comedian that coined the term was a writer and sometimes cast member on Parks & Rec. sadly he OD'd in 2015.

8:27 am

hokie carla

I will look, girl, haven't made it that far yet

8:27 am

hokie carla

I do have in4/7 on bottom i

8:27 am

welki

'morning, all

8:28 am

hokie carla

welki!

8:28 am

welki

the y = lady parts

8:28 am

player girl

Thanks Hokie

8:28 am

player girl

That must be a slang I don't know welki

8:28 am

hokie carla

yeah, not jumping out to me either.

8:29 am

welki

yo 4/6, yo 5/16

8:29 am

Judi

I need a clue for the Co6/21, please.

8:30 am

hokie carla

got the 4 thanks

8:30 am

Judi

And a clue for the last Co5/12. Anybody? Anybody?

8:31 am

hokie carla

have not made it off 1st row yet

8:31 am

LuvWordGames

co 6/21 co + twinkle, twinkle

8:31 am

Judi

Ty, Luv.

8:32 am

LuvWordGames

co 5/12 co + what the sun does to your skin

8:32 am

Judi

Super. Thanks. Although, the sun usually burns my skin.

8:33 am

Judi

Now I just need the 2nd Fa5/18 and Fa6/30.

8:33 am

Judi

Clues welcome.

8:34 am

LuvWordGames

fa 5/18 long distance + commercial & plural for 6

8:34 am

Judi

Thanks again, Luv. That's fireworks for me.

8:34 am

hokie carla

I do need more coffee. the right S appeared impossible to me at first.

8:34 am

hokie carla

well done, judi

8:34 am

LuvWordGames

WTG Judi

8:35 am

MollyL

The y4 is Hindu for vulva

8:48 am

BzznBea

It is also a device that is put into the vaginal.

8:51 am

MollyL

Wow, I didn't know you needed steaming in there. Leave it to Gwyneth to have made that thing popular. What did we do before GOOP?

8:53 am

hokie carla

don't get me started on that snake oil salesman

8:55 am

hokie carla

I think she had to remove the jade egg and/or some other stuff because of false claims

8:56 am

hokie carla

and I mean, remove it from GOOP, not her hooha

9:02 am

MollyL

Today is one, one two, two one. If you say that to someone, they will look at you in a funny way and start backing away slowly.

9:02 am

hokie carla

oh, thanks for telling me the date, it's my friend's birthday. gotta send her a message.

9:03 am

MollyL

And things have gotten very bad here if we have started talking about Gwyneth's hooha.

9:03 am

hokie carla

yeah, let's move on

9:15 am

hokie carla

well, 25 left after first pass, so about 75%

9:17 am

hokie carla

found 2 6's and nothing bigger. 6 4's left. will work on those.

9:33 am

hokie carla

made it to 16. gonna have to check the flip.

9:42 am

hokie carla

9 left after the chat read. might have to list.

9:47 am

Aloyisius

hi hokie and all.. almost matched you, am listing with 10 left

9:47 am

Wendrie

Molly - I stocked up on coffee, not because of COVID but Brexit, the coffee I like comes from Italy...

9:48 am

hokie carla

howdy aloy & wendrie!

9:48 am

hokie carla

trying one last hoorah before listing, aloy.

9:48 am

Wendrie

Hi Carla, taking a break at work, so came to Babble

9:49 am

Aloyisius

.. groaning at missing the last fa5.16

9:49 am

Aloyisius

need a fish slap, lol

9:50 am

hokie carla

is it a mean name?

9:50 am

hokie carla

I still need one F

9:50 am

Aloyisius

yes.. that is the one hokie

9:50 am

hokie carla

also realized I don't have any n's from the 2 word one

9:50 am

Aloyisius

didn't see it

9:51 am

hokie carla

officially throwing in the towel and going to the list

9:52 am

hokie carla

O N C AA F NN i left.

9:52 am

Wendrie

I keep seeing all the phantom -tion words

9:52 am

hokie carla

we'll see how many are easy

9:52 am

hokie carla

I keep seeing phantoms if there were an e next to the c

9:53 am

Wendrie

I've started to type fraction so often!

9:54 am

hokie carla

oh my, my missing n's were my last 2 4s, regular babblets

9:54 am

hokie carla

and my missing F was one I definitely tried more than once this morning. weird.

9:58 am

Aloyisius

well, my last word was ta5.12, a plural! Poofing with another fish slap.. see you all next time, Happy Babbling!

9:59 am

hokie carla

bye!

10:00 am

hokie carla

well I still have 3 stubborn ones.

10:01 am

hokie carla

omg, fish jumped into the boat and slapped me on one

10:02 am

marksdolly

lol I know that word :) kinda twisty

10:02 am

MollyL

For one stupid second, I actually thought you were playing Babble from a fishing boat (and I wouldn't put it past you)

10:02 am

hokie carla

LOL. the word in question is a boat

10:03 am

hokie carla

ok, the last one wasn't really stubborn, I hadn't actually seen it on the list yet. but that is it for me. TADA.

10:03 am

MollyL

I think you would have a hard time playing Babble from one of those

10:03 am

marksdolly

well done Hokie!

10:04 am

hokie carla

that... plus, I would probably get sick.

10:04 am

hokie carla

11:23 am

moolingwa

I got the one 7 left here

11:24 am

hokie carla

is it A?

11:24 am

moolingwa

it may be :)

11:25 am

hokie carla

easy guess for me

11:26 am

hokie carla

not the word itself, but that it was the one you are missing

11:26 am

moolingwa

cool

11:27 am

hokie carla

since the only other 7 is part of a set

11:27 am

moolingwa

true

11:29 am

penquis

hah....found that one....19 left here....

11:29 am

moolingwa

nice pen

11:29 am

hokie carla

it was one of my last 9 and I only got it from the list but makes sense when you see it

11:30 am

penquis

ty....i started looking when hokie said it was an A word...

11:30 am

penquis

trying to finish without the list, but I don't think I will make it...

11:32 am

bichon

no 7/44, pls

11:32 am

hokie carla

I definitely guessed a lot of weird ones before the list but then there were more. maybe 3 that I should have gotten listing.

11:32 am

penquis

no 7....things that are non true...

11:32 am

penquis

sorry...not true... ;o)

11:33 am

hokie carla

11:46 am

Marian Todd

thanks Hokie

11:47 am

hokie carla

no prob

11:48 am

hokie carla

I made it to 16 on my own and then got 7 from the chat, thought I'm not even sure there were 7 clues/stats in the chat at the time, so maybe found some more on my own before listing at 9. So, I have faith you can clear the board, bea.

12:07 pm

moolingwa

still looking for my last one

12:09 pm

hokie carla

you will smack yourself when you find it

12:10 pm

moolingwa

12:11 pm

hokie carla

that's not a subtle moo or ruru clue

12:11 pm

moolingwa

it's okay, I smack myself a lot anyway

12:12 pm

12:28 pm

Can you give me a gentle nudge on the O god they're O words ;)

12:28 pm
