10:56 am

tourmalinity

10:58 am

Treble99

Another clue would be help please.

10:58 am

Treble99

Another clue would be helpful. Thanks

11:05 am

Kukana

I just got those two words by noodling... thanks! I got the singular on the second try which is unusual for me :) Choose likely letters to come to that total and that's the word. For the plural, add 's' :)

11:06 am

periwinkle

Kukana, I can't find the R/8 with your clue. May I please have another hint?

11:10 am

Kukana

Dififcult to give a clue without giving it away... it starts with the R that's next to the U, and is a plural but the singular isn't in the grid.

11:11 am

Kukana

Does anyone have start letters for the 6s? I have the e now, and I have an s, but that's all. I see there are nine of them!

11:13 am

Charli

The R8 describes things that are uncommon.

12:28 pm

Charli

Sheesh -- I was thinking to myself, too bad can't make that E6 (not the one with the plural E7) and totally missed it! Thanks Rhea

1:06 pm

periwinkle

Charli, I have the b/6, m/6 and w/6. Having trouble finding the others. May I have hints, please?

1:11 pm

periwinkle

Found the T/6 and i/6.

1:17 pm

Charli

E6 - early stage of development
E6 - an alkaloid
IN 6 - private
R6 - hmm, you might belong to this club if you owned a business <grin> Not that I'm trying to make you go round in circles, you understand...
S6 - more than one cow pattie
T6 - the plural of a religious book

There, hope that helps, but not too easily! LOL

Thanks, Charli, Will keep looking.

1:35 pm

Charli

Ooh, thank you testing. I swore I noodled that but it told me it wasn't valid, I must have typo'd it.

1:40 pm

Happens to me all the time, Charli! ;-)

1:44 pm

periwinkle

Is the A word a common one?

1:49 pm

metags

periwinkle: the A word, in lawyer speak, is a shorthand (plural) of a form of dispute resolution. not sure if it has another meaning.

1:51 pm

periwinkle

How many letters is the A word, maybe that will help me. But thanks, metags.

1:52 pm

Charli

Ar 4 / 6 points

1:53 pm

periwinkle

What do you know, I found the A word, with my limited knowledge of law terms.

1:53 pm

periwinkle

Thanks, Charli, found it before I saw your post.

1:54 pm

periwinkle

Have all the 6s except the S :(

2:08 pm

Charli

Peri, the S6 is a plural of an S5.

2:10 pm

periwinkle

The only S/5 I have means to inflict a heavy blow on. Would you please help me find the right S/5?

2:12 pm

Charli

Begins with SH

I don't want to give away too much...I found it by noodling. It is not a common word.

2:22 pm
