m8/50
10:19 am
sprite

At least we know for sure we did a great job, Atalante... it checks out perfectly!
10:20 am
Atalante

yes! thats always nice to see!

and I totally admit I happened to see that m8/50 while doing the stats - I'm sure I'd never have got it otherwise!
10:23 am
Atalante

and I'm going to ask my computer god husband if he can write something for the whole process of stats. He's written a boggle solver before, but using a dictionary he's got on his hard drive. If he could hook that up to the one babble uses, we might just get something funky!
10:23 am
sprite

Still hunting for that one... so far no luck! Found a perfectly normal T8/40 though, a rather common verb in british spelling. :D
10:24 am
sprite

I am working on the same thing! There are solvers enough and my statsmaker is fine, but what we really want is a tool that combines the two without showing the words, right? Just put in the grid and out come the stats!
10:27 am
Atalante

Yup - we've got that - actually I could ask him to drag out the file and send it over to you if you'd like - you input the grid and out come the number of words - not sure about lengths, but thats easy enough to include. I just don't know how to hook it up to the enable dictionary
10:30 am
sprite

I would have to ask the one who made us the statsmaker - and we must get that enable dictionary somewhere. Let's see what we can do!
10:32 am
Atalante

Yes! I get the feeling its the dictionary thats the sticking point - at least from what husband has written in the past. I'll get him to drag out the files anyway, as a start! I think they're in c++ but I wouldn't swear to that!

i7/28 x 2
10:48 am
sprite

Another T8/40, only one letter different from the verb.
10:53 am
sprite

Atalante, could you give me a clue for that M8? Can't find it for the life of me.
10:54 am
Gail

And clues for the T8's too, please?
10:56 am
sprite

For the T8's, think of adding it all up (verb and the person doing it).
11:04 am
sprite

O7/28
11:10 am
sprite

There is a 2nd S8/40.
11:16 am
wilson27fan

Is anyone else having trouble with the site today?
11:26 am
Gail

Got the two t8 words. I can see the suffixes that the big ones will end in, but finding the whole word is a challenge.
11:33 am
modina

any clues for the 8's. i am lost on this puzzle!
11:40 am
Gail

I found an F8/55 on the a2z list that means a college of priests in ancient Rome. It's similar to the F7/40.
11:47 am
sprite

Wilson27fan: this morning there was that displaying-puzzle-error again, but that is fixed now. Only problem I have with the site, not just today but for some time now, is that it reloads quite slow every now and then. Some ads take much time reloading, I believe, and as long as it is reloading, I cannot type a new word.
12:40 pm
Atalante

LOL I'm glad its not just me that (would have had) trouble with the M8 ... its got 5 vowels ....

M8: two kinship groups based on unilateral descent that together make up a tribe or society
1:02 pm
DarleenMB

Hmmm. The f8 I found says it "pertains to declaration of war and peace; heraldic"

don't tell me there are TWO of them?!
1:13 pm
Gail

The F8 I found has no definition if you click on it, but when I googled it, it gave me that definition of college of priests in ancient Rome.
1:26 pm
Atalante

well whether there's 1 or 2 - I can't find either of them LOL
1:48 pm
EvaNadine

well, if the stats are right (which im sure they are) then there can only be one F8
:)
1:50 pm
Judi

All right... that one about the ancient college of priests is ridiculously obscure!! Not to mention (take your pick): ridiculously Latin, ridiculously Italian and/or ridiculously Heraldic. Whatever happened to MODERN English????
2:05 pm
DarleenMB

Gail, I just googled mine and its the same as yours. I found my definition from the onelook site...
2:25 pm
Judi

M8 clue: starts with the french word for "me" and ends with what men wear around their necks (when they dress up). I'll leave the dividing vowel between them a mystery.
2:31 pm
Judi

Gaaah. I quit. Too many vowel make me throw in the towel!
3:44 pm
COMFERT

hello all, thanks loads for my birthday wishes the other day. im not playing today... im slowly weening myself off babble. good luck all. have a great day. P.S I also ppassed my driving test on thursday... yes i will post warning of when i am on road. hee hee
3:52 pm
sprite

Atalante, thanx! A very obscure word, and hooray! a new one for the collection of words-I-learned-from-babble!
180 words / 4.78 / 2052 points it is for today.
4:20 pm
Atalante

Urf. I just can't do this one! I've got less than half the words and my willpower is draining away ...
4:57 pm
wilson27fan

Wow, what a tough cube
5:23 pm
wilson27fan

Whew,took me all day to finish this one,Good Luck All !!
6:02 pm
gooner

anyone got any easy clues??? not very good at this only got 4 & 5 letter words!!!
7:54 pm
periwinkle

gooner, if you look at the stats, most of the words in this grid are made up of 4 and 5 letters.
7:57 pm
periwinkle

May I have a clue for the two s/8/40.
8:01 pm
periwinkle

And the o/7/28 and i/7/28 x 2, please. This is a tough grid. I need all the help I can get.
8:05 pm
runningforhome

I only have one of those, periwinkle - an i/7/28. It's very lonely... *hint hint*
8:11 pm
periwinkle

runningforhome, thanks so much. found it right away with your great clue.
8:14 pm
runningforhome

Glad to help!
I found the other i/7/28 - a type of mineral compound, it looks like.
8:15 pm
tedybeth

peri: I have clues for 2 of them.
i7/28: sometimes called dichroite; a silicate of alumina, iron, & magnesia, having a bright blue color & luster.

s8/4-: composed of or resembling the s5/10
8:20 pm
periwinkle

tedybeth, I have several s/5/10. I am not sure which one to try. I am still working on the 1/7/28 mineral.
8:58 pm
tedybeth

periwinkle: the T5 is the one that means: a type of rock that splits into thin, smooth-surfaced layers; or a writing tablet made of a similar material; or a list of candidates running for office. :-)

2HOTT hey...you have added much to the game. Thanks.
