12:25 am

cybernan

is that sa 7 a common word?

12:28 am

Q

not really.

12:28 am

gingentle

it has a double consonant

12:29 am

justafreep

it's not common, but it's probably the only pronounceable 7 letters you can get from there.

12:31 am

cybernan

found it -- found other pronounceables as well - they just weren't words :)

12:34 am

justafreep

well, I think sxtetag should be, but I don't make the rules...

1:09 am

rbud

it rang a bell as soon as I pushed enter for the comment.

1:09 am

rbud

MollyL

Aw, it's the little grid that could. It thinks it can, it thinks it can.

7:48 am

BzznBea

I was hoping for a grid with a little more umph...

7:51 am

hokie carla

well I still managed to have 13 left after first pass

7:51 am

hokie carla

and I don't even have HOET or HOES

7:51 am

BzznBea

Skirted around you town, yesterday, Carla.

7:52 am

hokie carla

oh yeah? I thought I was going to have to take the youngest back to Raleigh yesterday after fall break but he found a ride.

7:53 am

BzznBea

Are they not allowed cars on campus as freshmen?

7:54 am

hokie carla

they can but the parking permits are on a credits basis, so it's hard for freshmen to get them.

7:56 am

BzznBea

I see. I think it is good for them not to be able to have a car. Makes them be more resourceful and independent.

7:56 am

hokie carla

they are all sold out right now but I don't know if they'll have more next semester or not, because the residential storage lot would probably not have a lot of december grads in it

7:59 am

penquis

good morning...

7:59 am

hokie carla

the oldest's friend told me this summer that she had taken the train and it was nice, but I also like going to get him and spending time in the car with him.

7:59 am

hokie carla

hey pen

7:59 am

BzznBea

Morning, pen.

8:00 am

penquis

hi carla, Bea....

8:06 am

BzznBea

I know, right?

8:07 am

HarryHood

just missing the bottom S

8:07 am

hokie carla

I keep seeing MAGA and I'm angry my mind thinks that's a word.

hi lindy....

8:12 am

BzznBea

Morning, lindy.

8:12 am

aslindy

wow, small grid today

8:12 am

BzznBea

Disappointing, isn't it.

8:13 am

hokie carla

oh, now I can catch up to harry. maybe.

8:13 am

penquis

i hate small grids like this....

8:13 am

aslindy

small grid is better than none, though

8:18 am

hokie carla

found my C! now caught up to HH 😁

8:19 am

penquis

who ever said that carla is not competitive??... ;o)

8:19 am

MollyL

Competitive play at this game eludes me

8:20 am

hokie carla

well I think Harry is slightly better than me. I would never try to compete with the members of the super word nerd herd.

8:21 am

BzznBea

Super word nerd herd...HA!

8:21 am

hokie carla

I liked it 😁

8:21 am

hokie carla

is that not what y'all call yourselves, bea? 🤣

8:21 am

MollyL

Those flip people crack me up, calling words for a grid as small as this. Got to be first, got to be first!

8:22 am

BzznBea

Hardly.

8:23 am

BzznBea

Yes, I could not compete with the flip people. Nor would I want to.

8:24 am

hokie carla

down to 8 now. only 2 4's left.

8:24 am

hokie carla

1 4 left

8:24 am

penquis

12 here and 7 are fours....guess i should work on those....

8:24 am

BzznBea

We traveled 580 miles yesterday. We are all stiff and sore today.

8:25 am

hokie carla

I bet!

8:25 am

hokie carla

any squatters?

8:25 am

BzznBea

Carla, I have 4 A's left.

8:26 am

BzznBea

No squatters, but our front yard is covered with mushrooms.

8:26 am

hokie carla

wow. haven't looked at the A yet? down to 1 A.

8:26 am

BzznBea

Did you get the bottom S?

8:26 am

penquis

just found that S....

8:26 am

hokie carla

no, have tried all kinds of things for that

8:27 am

BzznBea

It's a 7

8:27 am

mael

12 left, I don't have the bottom S either

8:27 am

hokie carla

figured it was a 7

8:27 am

mael

I'm assuming it's a 6 or a 7?

8:27 am

hokie carla

and have been thinking SPH but nothing

8:27 am

penquis

it's a 7...

8:27 am

mael

oh there it is, thanks

8:28 am

hokie carla

I'm assuming it's not a regular word?

8:28 am

mael

not a common word but a normal ending

8:28 am

hokie carla

see, mael is a stealth member of the super word nerd herd

8:31 am

mael

I am a nerd for many many things, words and botany being two of those haha

8:31 am

hokie carla

well, apparently I am going to have to have the actual stat to get it.

8:31 am

mael

8:31 am

hokie carla

8:32 am

mael

hokie carla

one of mr. homie's sibs said they were going to Columbia and he assumed the country.

8:46 am

hokie carla

well, peeked at the flip and my R was a plural 🙄

8:46 am

BzznBea

There are so many Columbias in the US.

8:46 am

hokie carla

well, they were referring to SC, which he should have assumed first.

8:46 am

MollyL

I'm surprised they are still allowed to call it Columbia since Christopher has been thrown in the trash with so many others.

8:47 am

hokie carla

2:32 pm

Sophie512

Hello all, just logging on....stuck on the SA7 but my question is, if someone says they monkeyed a word, does it mean they were just monkeying around with the keys and accidentally typed a real word?

2:34 pm

MollyL

Something like that. I don't know how it started and I wish it would end. It sounds really dumb.

2:35 pm

MollyL

Trial and error gets you a long way with some of these grids.

2:36 pm

Sophie512

Ok. Apparently, my trial and error is just not that smart. I have found some words that way, but the SA7 has me stumped. Thanks Molly

2:37 pm

MollyL

Let me know if you want a clue.

2:37 pm

Sophie512

Love your front porch!

2:37 pm

MollyL

I wish that was my front porch.
