I'm not off to a great start. This is a tough game. It's a bit after 2am and I am just here to cool my temper off a bit. Husband is asleep snoring up a storm and baby has already woken me up 2x. I decided to come and babble for a bit until I become less ready to go postal on both of them. As you can see, I'm exhausted and babbling so I think it's time for bed.......again.....we'll see how long it lasts this time. Nighty-night.

cathy, I believe I heard there was a place in Maine called Acadia, but I have never been. Acadia originally was the whole of NS, NB and PEI and these three provinces still have a significant Acadian population, of which I am one. The Cajuns of Louisiana are our relatives.

No, I don't think the Acadia of Maine has much to do with our Acadia except for the name. The Maritime provinces (NS, NB, PEI) are much like Scotland (hence New Scotland, NS) with green mountains, rocky shoreline etc. but also rolling farmland and sandy beaches.

But I thought it wouldn't fit for some reason.
12:48 pm
Jera

fit1... you sound like someone who's been BABBLE-d!!
12:49 pm

1:29 pm
kristin

1:33 pm
lianakate

1:34 pm
kristin

Jera - "tru"
A small wheel or roller.
The motion or noise of rolling.
A bed.
A low-wheeled cart; a dolly.
1:34 pm
diamondgirl

Jera, do I have to sign up and pay for stats?
1:34 pm
lianakate

1:59 pm
roncook

juls nearly an english snake or curdled milk
2:00 pm
kristin

Hokie add another letter to your first in word
2:00 pm
Anj

Hokie C, it's an in5/10 and measn to bury as in entomb

Ron, the un4 is brief for lingerie (lol), the un6s are to remove cargo from a ship and gas/petrol. Both use the same letters.
The ir4 is either angry (past tense) or like a part of your eye with a different last letter
2:00 pm
Juls

thanks both - got it, can't believe i always forget to look for the add-ons!
2:02 pm
Anj

Kristin, your N word sounds like what the moon does to the sea twice each day
2:06 pm
roncook

ta anj
still stuck on ir will keep trying
2:06 pm
hokie carla

Uh-Oh, now I'm confused.

Kristin - according to the 2nd letter stats, there's only one in word, and since I have only one word left, I don't know what the first "in" word you are talking about is.

Anj - the word that means what you said keeps sticking in my head, but the way I thought it was spelled does not exist & the only other possible way is not accepted. So, I must have the wrong word in mind.

Thanks anyway, guys.
2:07 pm
kristin

Ops sorry - I mean "ia" - been at this game too long today!
2:07 pm
kristin

NOOOOO I mean "id" ARG!
2:08 pm
roncook

at last l have busted my hymen on babble
thank you all for hints
2:08 pm
hokie carla

LOL - I was just going to say, "but I don't have any 'ia's, either!"
2:09 pm
kristin

Anj still got getting the n word - is there a definition?
2:10 pm
Anj

Sorry Hokie, I think the left & right sides of my brain are having a bust up :(
The entombed word is an mu4/6 and I haven't got a clue why that popped into my mind lol
The in5/10 means to get used to something unpleasant. See something thru' you rather wouldn't - that sort of thing. :)
2:11 pm
hokie carla

well K, the def. of the "ni' is that it's the adj. form of a noun that I don't know the meaning of. I think it is medical.

Think [blank] wave. Then put an n in place of the first letter there.
2:12 pm
kristin

Thanks Hokie - got it
2:16 pm
hokie carla

I am finding this in word unpleasant & probably won't see it through. :-)

Okay, a 5/10 is all 1-pt. tiles, correct?
2:17 pm
hokie carla

never mind - got it.

I looked for that one earlier, but kept looking at the wrong r.

Thanks again.

Jacula

I'm stuck on a tr8 (have the 2 to do with rollers) and an mu4 (not the walled up one).
3:08 pm
Anj

Hi Jac

You're mu4 sounds like currency, the tr is another 8/50 and you can get it by changing the 1st vowel in your 'rollers' tr8/50 :)
3:15 pm
Jacula

Thanks Anj. That's me done for today then.
3:18 pm
brandyjack

obviously I haven't read th4e chat log, but has anyone else got 71 words?

3:20 pm
Hugabugs

I've only got 70, and my grid is full
3:21 pm
brandyjack

never mind. it's a sort of bug that happens when your internet connection goes for a toot just as you type in a word.
3:21 pm
brandyjack

My list shows the tr7/32 twice, once with a score, once without. Refresh will kill it.
3:23 pm

grrrr..i dont understand the grid..I think i am being very obtuse..sigh. I dont like numbers just words..lol
6:36 pm
lianakate

NONE are grayed out.
6:37 pm
cbr1965

THe letter grid is layed out exactly like the Babble grid - under each letter is the number of words begining with that sepcific letter you currently have - underneath that is the total number starting with that letter - the grayed out boxes mean you have found all that start with that letter
6:37 pm

7:01 pm

Lianakate - doesn't really matter if they're greyed out or not. Under each tile, the bottom box shows how many words there are that start with that tile, and the upper shows how many *you* have found so far.

there are no grayed out boxes..I scrolled down to the letters beginning with box..and none of my letters are grayed out..I am getting really frazzled..

Lianakate - I'd be willing to bet that AOL is a major part of your problem. Their browser has always been notorious for not rendering pages correctly. Do yourself a favor -switch carriers and start using Firefox/Mozilla (or IE if you must); you'll live longer.

7:16 pm
Doogle

Lianakate - Never mind, then -- I thought I recalled from an earlier post of yours that you were using the AOL browser. If you're using IE, then I've no clue as to why your page won't display correctly.

Mozilla is another browser less prone to annoyances than IE. Do a google search - it won't be hard to find.

I've always wanted to visit more museums but not a lot of people around my age are really wanting to do that kind of thing - and although i love doing all the young wreckless things, i think it's important to try and see as much as possible.. museums give you a chance to do that - especially ones abroad, gives you more of an insight into things imo

Jen

Gosh, all the Smithsonians... American History, American Indian, Air and Space, NAtural History to name a few. There is the Corcoran Art, you can see the Declaration of Independence, there's a spy museum (that's a pay museum tho). And the bar scene is really good here, so I have heard, because of all the young congressional aides, etc. (although I am a bit past that, what with a hubby and a 4 year old, I'm lucky I am still awwake right now, but am watching FSU football).

Could I get some help with the tr8 that doesn't have to do with the bed? :)

Claire DC

Haha Jen, my sister has a little boy who is nearly 3 and i can understand why you may get tired early on if your little one is like my nephew.. it's funny how having children can just put a stop to your social life isn't it hehe. The museums sound fantastic though, really must get over there soon, i didn't realise there were so many different ones!!
9:46 pm
mab

The other tr series is the same as the bed with one vowel changed. Don't have definition.

Poor Muffet and Doogle!
9:47 pm
Claire DC

mab - i'm afraid i don't have that one myself :-(


Jen - the 2 tr 8s are all very similar.. a matter of changing maybe a vowel or a tense.. umm i'm a bit tipsy to try and think about how else to help without totally giving the game away lol
9:48 pm
mab

Jen - its the first vowel that changes.
Da6 anybody?
9:50 pm
Jen

no def for it, but take the 1st 4 letters of the male parent and add -le.
9:53 pm
mab

Many thanks. Did you get your TRs?
9:54 pm
tonyv

9:55 pm
tonyv

alright, thanks
9:56 pm
Jen

Yeah, I did, thanks. No way I am going to finish tonight tho. Hearts not in it. Fading fast and trying to actually pay attention to football. Oh well, all but 10. Tomorrow is another day.

Brilliant clue, torgone. I remember him.

arrgh un 8 and un 9 are doing my head in lol.. i have done well though so far being tipsy, an extra 13 words so far :D
10:02 pm

Claire, think of a foe of BAtman and stick un on the front and fiddle around with it.
10:02 pm
torgone

claire - do you have any ri6's & ri7's?
10:04 pm
Claire DC

i don't have any of them, not made it to r's properly yet lol
10:06 pm
Claire DC

jen - trying that now although my batman skills are alittle rusty lol
10:06 pm
mab

Ri6/24 and the two Ri7s are related. A simple word for conundrum, or puzzle.
10:08 pm
Claire DC

ri 6 24
ri 7 40
ri 7 36


I now have these. :-)
10:08 pm

Rhymes with "fiddle."
10:09 pm
Jen

Argh, the Ms! I only have the one that is a shortened word, but the other 2 are driving me nuts.
10:09 pm
torgone

Prepend (how's that for a word?) "un", Claire.
10:09 pm

Yay i have them, thank you for the clues. :D xx Another 26 to go lol.

My head is about to explode from searching for MU 5/16. I've tried every combination I can think of...obviously, except for the right one. The 3rd letter, or a very broad hint, would be much appreciated.
10:12 pm
mab

Irving- thats because its a nonsense word. sounds like having to do with a brand name of eye drops.

10:12 pm
Claire DC

I only have mu 4 /6 but that's in top left if anyone doesn't have it, although i think most will lol.
10:15 pm
tonyv

help on the tr7s and tr8s, please
10:16 pm
Hi there

10:16 pm
torgone

mab - actually it has to do with a kind of rodent.
10:16 pm
Irving

Mab - is the last letter an "N"?
10:16 pm
Dianne

MU4/6 - think Paul
10:16 pm
Jen

tony, think of the kids beds where one is stored under the other.
10:16 pm
mab

mu 6: a devotee of Mu Eyedrops.
mu 4: phonetically spelled cash.
mu 4: rhymes with sure.
10:17 pm
calicomo

Take the eyedrops and tune into your id.

wahey i have mu 5/16.. :D Doies someone still need help with that one.. or am i a bit late lol
10:19 pm

fu5?
10:20 pm
Irving

Mab - Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
10:22 pm
mab

Thanks, Torgone. I knew it had to mean something. Rodents, creepy. I automatically call all words unfamiliar to me and not in my dictionary "nonsense."
10:23 pm
mab

tonyv: think of mushrooms or whats growing in the refrigerator, and then change the penultimate consonant.
10:24 pm
torgone

Doesn't always help, mab, but any online dictionary ref means you can Google it or something. I honestly didn't know it until I guessed it then clicked the "?" box.
10:25 pm
mab

Make that the final consonant -- which is followed by a pluralizing vowel.
10:26 pm
Irving

Mab, I agree...nonsense words!

Tonyv - Think of a bay in Canada and change the last vowel.
10:26 pm
tonyv

thank you
10:28 pm
mab

When I begin a puzzle I want to know what all the words mean. By the end, I no longer care, I'm afraid. I had no idea one could click on the word and get the def. Always wondered what those ? where for.
10:29 pm
torgone

mab - sometimes it gives you alternate forms, plurals, etc.
10:30 pm
torgone

tonyv - I need that fu5 too.
10:32 pm
mab

Brilliant! I think my babbling is going to be a bit easier in future. Thanks torgone. Oh, and I love googling things - like magic. Almost.
10:37 pm

Hi Mab - Used to live in the 1400 block of Corcoran St., NW, just a quick 10-minute walk to Dupont Circle. I miss that area too! I miss Boston more, however. :(

Just a quick note to all you late night/early morning players-

I just added the ability to pay via PayPal. So anyone who's been putting off upgrading because they don't have a credit card, you have one less excuse now. ;)
10:54 pm

Holy Shnikes! Thank you, pk!! It's frequently the obvious ones that you don't see!

Can I just send you a kidney, Dr_God?
10:56 pm

no words begin with q or c in this grid
10:56 pm
Dr_God

You've already done your good deed by upgrading, torgone. ;)
10:59 pm
torgone

No, really - my left kidney is kind of bugging me. I'm trying to find somebody to send it to.
11:02 pm

Actually,$9.95 lifetime is a bargain! You must have a wicked bandwidth bill.

for your mu - "rid" yourself of worrying about it

There are two tr7 and 8 - which do you have?
11:31 pm
calicomo

I have the bed related ones
11:31 pm
cbr1965

change the vowel and the others are identical
11:34 pm
calicomo

thank you so much
11:37 pm
cbr1965

re5 - for one, add the same consonant to the end of an re4 - another re5 means kingdom - you probably have the third which means prepared
11:41 pm
calicomo

thank you thank you....
11:43 pm
cbr1965

Are you finished now?
11:44 pm
calicomo

still looking for

11:45 pm
cbr1965

al5 is a tree but it could be an older one
11:47 pm
cbr1965

I need to know what you have for re5 and un6 to tell which you are missing -
11:48 pm
calicomo

I have the older tree, the kingdom, and the type of gas
11:50 pm
cbr1965

then the al5 is to pay attention - stay awake - a sentry's job is to al__ the people if a problem - the re5 is one of your re4s with an extra consonant (a repeated consonant) at the end - it seems wrong but try it - and the un6 is a form of your la4/5
11:51 pm
cbr1965

use your re4/5 to find the re5
11:53 pm
EdArzakh

The RE5 makes sense when it means to sum again.
11:53 pm
calicomo

All right!!! I'm finished. Thank you so much.
11:54 pm
calicomo

The a in the bottom middle of my grid is gone. There is a red x there.

You are right! I never saw it that way - it must be too late for me!
