Looks like a biggie, but the words aren't coming very easy here. Am I out of practice or what? ;-)

It IS a biggie. Found 278 words so far, haven't been able to find any more words for some time now. Since there are no stats yet, I'll do a count of what I have and check back later to see what additions you all find. :-)

A--27
C--40
E--19
G--14
i--3
L--21
N--1

Well done Sprite - I've checked the stats and you've got them all! You saved me typing them up too! ;)
9:38 am
periwinkle

sprite, would you be kind enough to post hints for the 8 letter words. ( I do have both G/8 so far). Thanks
10:22 am
sprite

lol Milly... you're welcome! At least my lack of practise lately did not interfere with finding all words, only with finding them reasonably fast...

As for the 8s:

A40 -- resembling a goose; silly; simple
C50 -- minerals
C55 -- endorser
G45 -- high military ranks
G45 -- liberal in giving/sharing
R40 -- gets into one's head again
2:17 pm
periwinkle

Does the A/8 start with AN
2:19 pm
periwinkle

2:55 pm

I still can't find the chemical C8. Anyone have a second letter to share?
2:59 pm
sheffner1982

3:03 pm
periwinkle

WI5x3. Six of these words are plurals. Let me know if you need more help.

sheffner1982

any clues on the mineral? i still cant get it
3:26 pm
periwinkle

I can't find it either. Can't find the A/8. Babble won't take the word I want to put it. Maybe it is an alternative spelling.
3:29 pm
sheffner1982

whats the second letter of your a/8?
3:31 pm
sheffner1982

the word you are trying, that is
4:04 pm

4 - 2 5's for 18 and 2 6's for 30
4:28 pm
4t8

have also found 2 s's with the q - a 6 for 30 and a 7 for 44
4:48 pm
sheffner1982

thanks

A8 starts An; derived from the latin word for goose.

C8 minerals: quartz formed under conditions of high temperature and pressure, for example, in meteor craters; a rare form of silicon dioxide, a denser polymorph of quartz.
4:59 pm
sprite

The Qs go 5-6-5-6-5-6
all 5s are 18 points, all 6s are 30.
4 start Que, 2 start Qui

And there is one more S that uses the Q, another 7/44 (hint: try changing the last letter of the one you found).
5:21 pm
periwinkle

AN
5:25 pm
periwinkle

Finally found the A/8. I was trying a different ending.
