Hey, I'm fourth! And soon to be out of here. My eyeballs are having a difficult staying open.

Hey debs, did you join? I'm not clever enough to figure out how to do those nifty little icons. Bummer.
12:15 am
hokie carla

getting very sleepy here, too.
12:16 am

Mine aren't showing up yet either.

No haven't yet.... might do later.. Can you put your own icon in or do you have to choose from some available?
12:18 am
brandyjack

if you have a digital pic, you shrink it to 48 pixels by 48 pixels and then upload it.
12:19 am
mtnjock

how do I upload a pic?
12:20 am
cat2

Hi, babblers...

Not sure who asked, but I'm not in the Katrina Zone. Lots of sympathy for those who are. I work at a gas station/convenience store. Gas prices are all out of control 'cuz of the hurricane. Makes for some very long lines at work.
12:20 am
smithchick

Thanks brandyjack. Since the stats aren't ever gonna come up on the other thing, thanks for those, too.
12:20 am
brandyjack

you have to go for babble pro, then you update your profile.
12:20 am
Debs40ish

So that's a pic of you Brandy?
12:21 am
brandyjack

it is indeed....... I edited out the part showing the ship foundered on the rocks.... heheheh.
12:21 am
mtnjock

hey cat2, just outside the katrina zone, have 8 friends staying over from New Orleans
12:21 am
hokie carla

cat2: our gas went up .30 since yesterday.

glad you're not in the zone. looks absolutely horrible.

Debs40ish

Very nice.... Not so sure I'd want to put my pic in!..lol
12:25 am
cat2

hokie carla... ours went up .15 and will go up again in the morning. We are generally least espensive in town, right now we are really low to everyone else. That's why all the really long lines.

mtnjock... you're a good friend. sounds like it's going to be some time before they can return to N.O.

Much tougher grid than yesterday's, isn't it? I have trouble finding good endings.
12:29 am
hokie carla

well, it's kinda smushed, but got my pic.
12:30 am
Debs40ish

They're only ever found in fairy tales chick!
12:30 am
hokie carla

yep, this is a tough one. I've got a few 5/14s, but that's the highest I've found.
12:32 am
sprite

LOL debs!
No, I have nothing above 5 yet either, feel really thick today ;)
12:32 am
smithchick

Huh? Are we talking stats here debs? My brain is seriously sleep-deprived. It isn't computing. Must have sleep!!! Night all. I'm sure I'll be back in the morning while browbeating my children into getting ready for school.
12:33 am

It's a C6 which I think is a kind of fungus. Funny vowels. Trade you for clues on the 7's you have?

Memphis is great! Happened to be there a few summers ago, serendipitously catching the 25th Dead Elvis Parade. Spent some lovely afternoons at the Rum Boogie Cafe. Lots of great music in that town.
1:16 am

For the L7 think catty. The P7 is a verb for 'place in a prone position'. Thanks for the C6-clue, I go hunting!

Found it, Krys10! Know more about fungi now than I ever will need. It refers to an aecium in fungi in which the spores are formed in chains and not enclosed in a peridium. Right. And an aecium is the fruiting body of rust fungi, which bears chainlike or stalked spores. Sure. Your clue for the funny vowels made me try crazy words until one was taken :D

Hi A3/10! lol, hadn't noticed that actually :) Getting an early start today?
6:18 am

Dr_God, The stats page causes the word list to disappear with no obvious effect. Exept that if you scroll down to the end of the chat log, lo and behold, there is this little tail thingy hanging off the end with all the stats in it.
6:18 am

Anj... I had that icon earlier ... I changed it as it wass ending some of us (including me) dizzy with motion sickness!!!! ;)
6:19 am

Hi Lola - have to go walkabout in a mo, so getting some words in early. How's your day?

Thanks BrandyJack... found the stats where you said!!! Weird place for them and its poisitioned in the URL too!

I don't think it's supposed to be there. It is way too inconvenient. I spent all day yesterday wondering when that button was going to do something constructive and having to reload babble everytime I hit that button.

Ginger, It's a bit psychedelic, but then again so am I :)
6:22 am

Anj - just wait 5 mins and it will do your eyes in!
6:23 am

I think I have an idea why it's done like that..... the url gives a clue... the word list is #top and the stats #bottom... I wonder if this is a design issue to stop them colliding?
6:28 am
Dr_God

brandyjack-

I'm not sure I understand what you mean about the whole stats/word list/little tail thingy. The Stats panel and the Word list should both show up right next to the puzzle, but only one at a time. They are toggled back and forth by click the "flip to" link.
6:28 am
brandyjack

Nope. Have use scroll bar to see stats. I can see the stats at the same time I am writing this message.
6:30 am

Ahhhh. I gotcha. Yeah. There does seem to be a problem with IE 6 for Windows at the moment. I'll fix it right away.
6:30 am

Dr God, they are vertically aligned OK, but appearing to the right of and just below the jump up/hide log link at the bottom of the page

Ok, Stats Panel Users. Refresh your pages and let me know if the Stats panel is where it should be - next to the puzzle.
6:38 am
Anj

Ah, the pleasure of novocaine. Hope it goes OK.
6:39 am
Anj

Bingo Dr God :)
6:41 am
Dr_God

It may still need some tweaking, because the width of the Stats panel is variable depending on the totals for the day. So if it gets too wide again, the panel will pop down below. If it does, just let me know.

FMitch-

The double-posting is a bug I'm working on. Rest assured, it's not being posted twice, just *showing up* twice. Just refresh to get rid of the doubles.

The stats panel shows how many words start with each tile. A few others have thought the same as you did, however. I'll have to do a better job of explaining the Stats panel.

Oh Dr_God, if only you'd said that a couple of weeks ago I could have e-mailed it to you! Unfortunately, the mag went into the recycling box a fortnight ago. Might still have the bit I tore out in the shredder back though. Will look later today, if that helps?
7:30 pm
Dr_God

Yeah, if anyone can get their hands on a copy of it, I'd love to see it.

Dr. God... are you retired from ZZ Top????
7:31 pm
Jacula

BrandyJack - If you're still there, I hope you're feeling better after your trip to the dentist. Your wallet won't be but I hope YOU are.
7:31 pm
Babbler

I kept it for a couple of weeks...... I put it down when I saw the feature and it was ages till I picked it up again!! It's gone to be recycled now, unfortunately. I think you can request a back copy from them.....?
7:33 pm

Basically, Dr_God, if gave a brief description of Babble as a 'complusive' word game and the web addy, as I recall.

Hey, Dr_God, if you want to make lots of hard work for yourself re making a fireworks display or a round of applause for the finish you could get each of us to e-mail you a sound file of us cheering and then sort through all the mails to amalgamate the cheers into one big 'real' Babbler's cheer.:-)

*ducks in case a boot flys out of the monitor*

Was canned soup. Cream of tomato. Wish I had my grandfathers recipe for soup. was a vegetable and mystery meat concoction.
My pocketbook is nearly dead. 2nd of 3 root canals in 4 weeks. At CND$1055.00 each.....
7:38 pm
Dr_God

Jacula-

Very funny idea. But I'm going to stay away from sound. You'd think in this day and age of the web, it would be an easy thing to do, but alas it is not.
7:41 pm
Babbler

<whistle!!> that's steep, Brandyjack.
Green tea is good for gums. And you want CoEnzyme Q10 to strengthen them. And Vit C of course.
Have you got a hand blender? Home made soup is really easy!!
7:43 pm
brandyjack

and those 3 canals will be followed by 3 crowns at about CND$980.00 each... All done by Sept 30.....

I think we need to have a whip-round for BrandyJack. *Throws a hat down outside her house and starts singing.* (Not sure if I'll get money but I'll no doubt be told what time it is (1.43am) more than once.
7:45 pm

Dr_God. I'm not sure if sounds whacks bandwidth (or even if you're short of it) but those avatars might do.
7:45 pm

that's a pretty tune, Jacula, here's a squid!

Doogle - That elusive pi6. If someone offered you a Christmas tree you might say what sort of tree it is (pi**) and then shortly say 'Thanks!'
7:52 pm
Babbler

VERY good clue, Jacula!

Poor Brandyjack! Take the pain meds if you need them, don't gut it out - that's not good for you.

No pain to speak of, just sore jaw muscles that hurt to open wide or chew.
7:55 pm
Jacula

Pask - I don't know if you speak Welsh (you probably don't) but the first 3 letters of the word you want mean 'field, fence or hedge' in Cymru. In reply to that you might say Oh My (giddy) Aunt.

Brandyjack be thankful you have dental insurance I am on my 4th root canal at those prices with no insurance so it is all out of pocket. Finally can afford last crown tomorrow on payment plan. No vacation this year its in the mouth.

good brandyjack, she might get a nasty fungus. I am an expert of sorts on the life cycle of certain fungi thanks to babble, google and Cornell.
8:06 pm
mab

Clever Jacula. You're a genius. Ta.
8:10 pm
Jacula

Speaking of fungi and nasty diseases, I do wish I hadn't read back about the other meaning of the Christmas word. I, too, will be wary of mistletoe from now on! LOL. (Mind you, before I'd read the clue properly, I was looking for 'parasite' on the grid.)
8:11 pm
Jacula

mab - No, not a genius - just a crossword fanatic. You kinda get used to how to set cryptic clues (or how you would *like* them to be set).
8:12 pm
Jacula

Right! Just got the p's left to finish. 7 of the little blighters.
8:13 pm

Does anyone have je6? Help, please!
8:14 pm

Oh, Jacula, Brit crosswards are ever so much more difficult that our USian ones, which usually involve no cryptic clues.

mtnjock... thx for the open welcome to Memphis :) sure hope I get the chance to visit one day...

Finally got a look at the updated board... nice :)
8:19 pm
Jacula

Jera - it's a small Spanish horse and also an archaic form of referring to a female donkey or ass. In the middle ages it was also used as a christian name.

If that doesn't help, all I can ask is if you were here when the clues for the thing that curdles milk were posted. If so, just change the first letter.
8:22 pm
Jera

Yay! Thanks!
8:22 pm
Jacula

The name (for human females was often given as a laughingly derogatory form or given if there was something 'wrong' with them, i.e. deafness. I refer you to a novel: The Iceweaver by Margaret Lawrence.
8:25 pm
Jera

I haven't been here much today, so of course this turns out to be a tough one. I was on about an hour when it first came up, then maybe 90 mins tonight.
8:27 pm
Jacula

I knew it would be a tough one when I saw no 's' or 'd' anywhere. ' Only going to get Latin plurals out of this one!' thought I.

8:49 pm
Jacula

As far as I know, I'm just looking for one pe5/14 (not the Finnish money or the old Greek peddler or trader). However, that stillleaves me one word short for 117 words?
8:50 pm
Babbler

I'm nowhere near you, Jacula, but have you got the pasta?
8:57 pm
Jacula

Thanks Babbler. I know the one you mean. I know I tried it hours ago because I've got it written down and crossed out. It's accepted it this time though. So thanks.

One word left and, going from BJ's stats I've no idea which!
9:05 pm

63 words. that's i5/14! : ((
my eyes hurt. I'm calling it.

hi all
9:09 pm
Jacula

Well, as far as I can tell, BJ's stats add up to 116 words/1201 points. I can't find any more words the puzzle will allow so I'll sign off on that.

(We'll forget Elton Jo(h)n, Lenin, Dolly Parton's 'Jolene', Madonna's 1st hubby (Penn), the man who was swallowed by a whalw (Jona(h)), Petra, Leto (Zeus & Apollo's Mum), Tronc (a pool where bar or restaurant tips are put), and Pele.
9:13 pm

Jacula, I've added up the first column of Brandyjack's statistics, and it adds to 117 as far as I can tell (and matches my words)
9:26 pm

Does it? I'll count again... 1,2,3...

A question/suggestion.

I really like the format, but I find as the day goes on and the log gets longer, and now with extra images to load, my bowser just can't handle it and it freezes up. I can only get 'any action' with the chat log hidden which is too bad as I love to follow the banter. Would it be possible to have the chat log bump to another page when it hits, say 50 posts? That way, the main page would load faster and people could still access earlier posts when they need to.

Just a suggestion...

Dr_God, you have really done a super job here, I LOVE it. And all of the Babblers as so nice, helpful and funny. Great site ann around...
