ta8 person who works for the irs

9:20 am

Freeman

Looking for ma8, please?

9:20 am

mkg

Ty

9:20 am

Freeman

ta8 starts with the ta6 then the 7 and the 8 is the pl

9:21 am

mkg

Ty.

9:21 am

mkg

Taxmand

9:21 am

mkg

Oops. Sorry

9:22 am

Freeman

Oh sorry there is only one ta8 and it is the second clue I gave. The first was a ta6

9:23 am

Freeman

there is a tr8 works for the tr5 before it

9:37 am

morning all

9:44 am

hokie carla

hey mooooo, everyone that's here

9:45 am

moolingwa

hoooooooke

9:46 am

moolingwa

looks like an easier board so far

9:50 am

HarryHood

just saw the news about harry belafonte.

9:51 am

HarryHood

I will tally some bananas today in his honor

9:52 am

hurshy

it's a twister, it's a twister!

9:54 am

Freeman

I am really struggling with ma8, any clues please?

9:55 am

hurshy

one who orders and requires that something be done

9:56 am

hurshy

such as like, people must wear masks because of COVID

9:57 am

hokie carla

it is an easy one. I finished last night with assistance on maybe 2.

9:58 am

hurshy

way to make people feel dumb if they're having trouble rofl

9:59 am

hokie carla

I can't control how people gonna feel

9:59 am

hurshy

no, but you can influence it

9:59 am

hokie carla

I feel dumb on a regular basis here

10:00 am

hurshy

you do?? i'm sorry to hear that

10:00 am

hurshy

i think you're a good babbler

10:00 am

hokie carla

and this is why people are overly sensitive these days

10:01 am

hokie carla

I think i'm mid-range, not top tier

10:02 am

hurshy

the grids make fools of us all

10:05 am

Freeman

Well I can tell you that I feel dumb and don't mind it. I am still having trouble with ma8. I am really sorry but can someone give me another clue. Those clues given were great but I just didn't get it.

10:05 am

hokie carla

and we've established that I see grids differently than a lot here, so ones others think easy I don't and vice versa, so again, I can't control how others feel. also, I know that any grid easy for me will be easy for moo, whose comment about it looking easier so far is who I was responding to.

10:06 am

hokie carla

freeman, it is a "one who does" word, like an orator orates.

10:06 am

hurshy

i was not commenting seriously anyway hokie, that's why i ended with "rofl"

10:06 am

hokie carla

so a ma8 is one who makes or orders people to do stuff

10:07 am

hokie carla

no worries

10:07 am

Freeman

Thanks got it and yes sometimes both dumb and a fool. I think your comment was fine but I think hurshy just wants us to be kind to each other. Hope I am correct.

10:07 am

hurshy

i do want people to be kind but in this case i was just being jocular

10:08 am

Freeman

That's ok too. I didn't mind hokies comment and yes we are all a bit too sensitive these days.

10:08 am

hokie carla

jocular was the bee pangram yesterday

10:09 am

hurshy

that's probably why it's in my head :D

10:09 am

hokie carla

ruru says difficult boards are easy all the time. I read it as "easy to him" and just know he's better than me.

10:14 am

hurshy

top A has ar5 passion and what else? :)

10:15 am

hokie carla

ax5

10:15 am

hurshy

oh! thanks

10:15 am

10:42 am

hokie carla

def clues for the ma8 below. ta8 is a pl of a 7 I don't recall seeing before, similar to scottish plaid. tr8 is a regular word, most commonly seen with -ion on the end - means to conduct business.

10:44 am
