1:04 am

brainiac is accepted in more words ?
1:04 am
marksdolly

yep
1:05 am
grannyrose

for sure the brainiac is not allowed in the words list. i have all the b's and the b tile is greyed.

2:26 am
rbud

thanks, both of you, haha! I'd wandered off for a sec, we have thunder and I wanted to check the dog - he seems okay.
2:29 am
grannyrose

hey Gillie. question? would you like to friend me in FB? i had two lovely canadian lady friends. have to say that or the guys will be up in arms. but one of the ladies has passed, and the other has been overcome by alzheimers. my email addy is in my profile if you would prefer.
2:31 am

'morning, everyone
7:16 am
BzznBea

Morning, Welki. All settled in after the move?
7:17 am
welki

i wouldn't call it 'settled,' but we're all in. we still have to rearrange, throw away and clean, but there'll be time for all of that when the weather turns
7:18 am
welki

thanks for asking :)
7:18 am
welki

and on your side, how's your mom?
7:20 am
BzznBea

She's better. On home O2 now. And still flying high with steroids. Still have some tests we need to have done. And she needs to put on about 15 pounds, but we are working on that.
7:22 am
BzznBea

Thanks for asking.
7:23 am
welki

i'm happy to hear she's doing better. with the hot weather, i'm sure her appetite isn't the best, so you probably have your work cut out for you, creating high calorie mini-meals. as for me, i can't ever (like EVER) imagine a doc telling me to gain weight - i'd probably pass out
7:23 am
mattygroves

May I please have a gentle nudge on the et7?
7:24 am
welki

just started, matty, but will look with you
7:26 am

hi all
8:05 am
Scrabbler

I am listening to news from the Miami condo collapse. So tragic.
8:05 am
Shirlockc

too many consonants
8:06 am
HarryHood

yes it's awful. I wonder what will turn out to be the cause
8:06 am
BzznBea

Harry! Good to see you!
8:06 am
HarryHood

hi bea - long time :)
8:06 am
BzznBea

Yes, it is Scrabs.
8:06 am
ItalianGreyhound

they say the buildings been sinking for years
8:07 am
Scrabbler

Yes.
8:07 am
HarryHood

in an area with a high water table and sandy soil, I guess rising sea levels will have an effect. Which doesn't bode well for many shoreline high-rises
8:07 am
HarryHood

but thats' all conjecture
8:07 am
Shirlockc

makes you wonder about the other buildings in the area
8:09 am
HarryHood

first pass done. missing the lone N. anybody have a clue?

8:13 am

8:13 am
hokie carla

oh, a tiara for DCSeain today
8:14 am
hokie carla

mr homie read that there was a problem with sinking since 1990 or so
8:14 am
hokie carla

I know FL has a lot of sinkholes, maybe one opened up under it
8:14 am
hokie carla

I saw a video of it, just horrible
8:14 am

8:37 am
hurshy

that's ai7 and it's a compound word
8:37 am
BzznBea

That a7 is a compound, Carla
8:37 am
hurshy

ve6 relates to the french word for selling

top right
8:42 am
hurshy

you may have missed where i mentioned it is ai7
8:42 am
BzznBea

There is an echo in here.
8:42 am
hokie carla

I assumed ai based on the other clues, but both A's have an i next to them.
8:43 am
hurshy

i was just saying that based on your reference to it still being a7 rather than ai7, not cause it would tell which A it was from
8:43 am
MLFAN17

so is it ai7?
8:43 am
ItalianGreyhound

AB = a 5/12 word in the grid and a smart pilot is aI------

and there it is
8:44 am

8:44 am
hokie carla

if you were cluing it for me
8:45 am
hokie carla

are you saying those 2 are related?
8:45 am

8:45 am
ItalianGreyhound

Im lost
8:45 am
hurshy

the two a7s are not related other than by both starting with that A
8:45 am
BzznBea

No, they are not, Carla.
8:45 am
BzznBea

Im not sure where IG is getting the AB part of that.
8:45 am
hurshy

the ab7 is another a7 word
8:46 am
ItalianGreyhound

because its there
8:46 am
hokie carla

what is the points for the ai7?
8:46 am
MLFAN17

no idea on that clue
8:46 am
hurshy

IG, here's a tip, you have to at least separate two clues with a comma or something if you want to clue both, lol
8:46 am
BzznBea

ai7.44
8:46 am
MLFAN17

okay so is it AB or AI???
8:46 am

Brainiac not a word? Seriously?
10:28 am
Shirlockc

is the in8 off the previous in6?
10:29 am
MollyL

Brainiac is a word for a fictional character, a supervillain that appears in comic books published by DC Comics. That led to the slang use of the word. Not something the Enable nerds would allow.
10:31 am
MollyL

Yes, morewords shows that the in8 is off the previous in6

11:28 am
MLFAN17

it ends in c?
11:29 am
dcseain

it's generally considered derogatory
11:29 am
MLFAN17

true dc but that doesnt mean its not a real word
11:29 am
dcseain

derogatory terms are generally not allowed in word games.
11:30 am
hokie carla

not true here
11:30 am
MLFAN17

true
11:30 am

11:36 am
dcseain

yay shirl!
11:36 am
hokie carla

nice! well done.
11:36 am
cybernan

I think it was considered derogatory because it implied that the person was so smart, he/she was a social misfit
11:36 am
MLFAN17

👍
11:37 am
MLFAN17

they usually are social misfits
11:37 am
hokie carla

I guess along the same lines as nerd, dweeb, geek, but seems less so to me
11:37 am
MLFAN17

the thumb up is for shirl

MLFAN17

ty cyber
11:40 am
cybernan

hi 9-10-10 sleep through a season like bears
11:42 am
hokie carla

the 7 is a plural for the sterile offspring of a male horse and female donkey
11:44 am
cybernan

can't think any more, time to list
11:44 am
hokie carla

somehow different than a mule
11:47 am
MollyL

I agree with Seain, brainiac is derogatory. It implies someone is showing off.
11:52 am
Vicuna

A mule is offspring of a female horse and male donkey.
11:53 am
Vicuna

Like our Babble friends tigon and liger are different.
11:54 am
MLFAN17

ty for the hi 7 new one to me
11:54 am
hokie carla

well, thought maybe that but merriam webster says for mule - especially: offspring of male donkey and mare
11:55 am
MLFAN17

but some do show off how smart the are or think they are
11:55 am
MLFAN17

i did a google search and the word came up
11:55 am
hokie carla

funny, molly. asked my message board people and all the ones from the DC area said derogatory and the others not from there agreed with me
11:56 am
hokie carla

so I'm declaring it a regional thing
11:56 am
dcseain

yeah, so maybe it's a DC thing, being from here.
11:56 am
Vicuna

Hokie, re the mule, that is not a contradiction. Merriam Webster is saying the same thing,
11:57 am
MLFAN17

hokie i am from that area and i dont think it is but i think it depends on who you talk to and how it is used based on the person or people
12:00 pm
Vicuna

rins
12:00 pm
Vicuna

*sigh* Sorry.
12:01 pm

12:02 pm

Your message board people?
12:06 pm
hokie carla

yes, I've mentioned before I've been part of a VT message board group for like over 20 years
12:09 pm

12:14 pm

a friend pointed me at Babble back in 2005.
12:16 pm
bichon

same here
12:17 pm
Vicuna

Looks like hokie beat me to Babble by 9 days. =)
There was a little article about it somewhere (which my husband saw and mentioned to me), and I think there was a whole influx of us right around that time when people saw the article and told people who told people...
12:17 pm
hokie carla

I was looking at the chat from around then and it's funny all the people with hokie in their names - those are all people from the message board and I'm the only one left.
12:18 pm
hokie carla

yes, vicuna, I believe someone in my group saw that article and shared it and that's how I ended up here.
12:19 pm
hokie carla

well, maybe not the chat, but the player list from around then had a lot of hokies
12:21 pm
bichon

There was an article about Babble?
12:22 pm

Is it obtainable?
