12:04 am

Jacula

Before we all even begin to look properly at this grid, can I just say I think it might be a sod of a grid??

12:04 am

pthomp

what's the theme?

12:04 am

GreyWoulf

I have had a couple like this now -- annoying as heck, but it's all part of the game ;D

Thanks for all the help, folks!

12:06 am

stillcrazy

Not sure I just put one on is all

12:06 am

EasternBlue

I think it's supposed to be birds...

12:06 am

zubie

I wanted you to finish, GW. :/

How many words today, by the way?

12:07 am

Griffums

then I guess I should go find me a bird dog

12:07 am

GreyWoulf

At least the count is only 155 today, I should be able to finish this one :D

But I have day shift, and icy roads to deal with in the AM, so I will say my good nights now

12:07 am

EasternBlue

158 today...too much for me to tackle at this late hour...

NIGHT ALL!!! Have FUN with the new grid!!!

12:07 am

MissyMe

Where do we find the theme for the day?

12:07 am

MissyMe

EasternBlue Nite :)

12:07 am

Griffums

Night EB!

12:08 am

EasternBlue

MissyMe - Babbler posts it in her log...You can always look her up in the "player rankings' if you're not on at the same time as her...

12:08 am

GreyWoulf

Happy hunting everyone!!

12:10 am

MissyMe

Where is log found?

12:14 am

harpjane

It's birds today.

12:14 am

GreyWoulf

before I leave -- does this image work? -- it's a wolf reflected in the eye of an owl (just found it) - i can see the wolf, but that may be because I know it's there :)

12:15 am

cybernan

Hello again -- a little more manageable this time?

12:15 am

jenwould

greetings Babblers!

12:16 am

Debs40ish

e/7 36

12:18 am

jenwould

gw... the image is a little difficult to see (see something but not a clear image of a wolf). A shame because it looks like it would be pretty cool full size.

12:18 am

harpjane

GW, works for me. Now that you told me what it is! g'nite.

12:19 am

brandyjack

c7/36

12:19 am

MissyMe

I think it's fine

And goodnight GW :)

12:20 am

GreyWoulf

Thanks, jenwould & harpjane -- tole me what I needed to know -- I go with Kirsten's primary totem then -- this one expresses my current feelings better anyway! ;D

So long for real now :)

12:20 am

zubie

I still see the old image, GW. :/

12:21 am

jenwould

well GW I'm sorry, I feel awful writing that. Must be my eye sight. My apologies...

12:22 am

GreyWoulf

jen - no need for apologies -- it's what I thought on seeing the shrunken icon as well

The grid usually gives enough headaches without my icon compunding the prob ;D

12:23 am

GreyWoulf

(*hugs again*) and bye!

Wife is waiting for her backrub!!

Jacula

Why isn't 'quorn' a word??

12:36 am

nava

how come techno and mega don't work?

12:49 am

chic

how come "yipee" isn't a word?

12:50 am

nava

i tried yipee too.

12:54 am

Jacula

Got 56 words from this grid.Signing out until later now. Byeee,

12:58 am

Chessy

12:58 am

cybernan

cybernan

1:01 am

Blaze

1:08 am

Blaze

1:08 am

Blaze

cybernan d7 what we do to the grid every nite....

Hi Blaze doing great! Got most of the Christmas shopping done today and only have 49 words left to find in this grid.

1:10 am

Blaze

I was going off but stopped to cleanup some of the small letter lots...

1:12 am

cybernan

Time to check brandyjack's list -- Thank you BJ!

1:19 am

1:53 am

pthomp

tougher than it looks

1:56 am

zubie

Back. I'd had to go for a while. Now to find the rest of the words. 96 so far. Hi Cybernan, Blaze; hi again, everyone!

1:57 am

vanessa

1:57 am

FMitch

1:58 am

Dianne

Hi Everybody - Hope all goes well on the other side of the water.

Can someone help me with the Sy 4/8 - I can't find it, I can't add it up...........DUH

2:01 am

zubie

Hi Mitch. I stopped last night at 301 and returned this morning to ferret the last few out. I finished. Obsessed, that's what I am! :o :D

How are you?

2:02 am

Chessy

Dianne, it's a short form of a very unpleasant disease ...

2:02 am

FMitch

I'm well thanks, just having a quick look at today's grid but off to work shortly.
Hi Dianne, sorry can't help you

Catch up with everyone later

2:02 am

SummerBreeze44

sy4/8 - A venereal desease

2:04 am

Dianne

SB944 - I didn't know there was a shorten form of that word - thanks for the help - that was bugging me so.

2:05 am

SummerBreeze44

The things we learn..... :)

2:07 am

cybernan

Hi Zubie

2:07 am

cybernan

20 words left and I can't think anymore -- good night all, see you tomorrow.

2:12 am

zubie

Dianne - sy4 - all consonants!

2:14 am

Dianne

zubie - thanks - I got it with Summer's clue a bit earlier.
As I said before I dodn't know there was a "nickname" for that !

2:15 am

pthomp

chic - where in AZ? Tucson here

2:41 am

Blaze

back with my NeoCitran...drink of the evening.
hello to all
Zubie how goes the ankle healing ?

2:44 am

zubie

Much better, Blaze! Swollen but not as much and less painful. The walking that I'm doing is slowing things down, but after next week I'll be able to rest it :D

2:45 am

Blaze

zubie are you able to use a cane to take some of the pressure off of your sore ankle?

2:46 am

Dianne

Help, please - on the De4/6. I have the one to judge/consider and the water one but can't find the last one.

2:46 am

Paddytt

Good morning, has anyone got clues for the Te6/24 & Te7/36 please? I only need these 2 to finish.

2:47 am

Blaze

de 4.6 what people do when they change furnishings the de**

2:48 am

zubie

I suppose I could, Blaze, but I'd feel strange :D

2:48 am

Dianne

Blaze - thanks. Once again I was headed in the wrong direction.

2:49 am

tbear

paddytt...te6 think of a abbreviated name for someone who is good with gadgets

2:49 am

Blaze

better clue some call it art de**

2:49 am

Blaze

thanks t bear

2:49 am

tbear

and it's plural of course

2:50 am

Paddytt

Thanks tbear :-) finished now

2:50 am

zubie

Nelson!

2:51 am

Dianne

zubie - have you tried the elastic ankle thing they sell in the drug store? My husband had a bad sprain and the doctor suggested this and it really helped him.

2:55 am

zubie

Dianne - is it that velcro stuff? I'm thinking of getting it this week.

2:59 am

Dianne

zubie - no - it is like an elastic sock but open at the heal. My husband said it made him feel much more secure and it helped with the swelling as well.

3:00 am

davetins

Hi Zubie, Glad you managed to finish yesterday. I'm stuck on 2 de's 6/30 and following 6/27 ? any clues please?

3:35 am

ramix

3:37 am

davetins

Dianne, did you get your se6??

3:39 am

Dianne

davetins - yes I got it and I thanked you for the help.
I then looked it up and found out it is like a mini-tsunami.

Nearly finished but debating leaving the last few for tomorrow so I have an"excuse" to log in in the morning:)

3:40 am

davetins

Ok Goodnight

3:40 am

Dianne

Hi ramix - nice to know we've got company.

3:40 am

Dianne

Good night davetins.

3:40 am

Blaze

i am complete.... any clues needed ??

3:41 am

Haz1558

I'm just getting started - how was the grid?

3:41 am

Blaze

haz nice to see you.. not a bad at all

3:42 am

MissyMe

Hi Balze :) I need these

ge 5/ 16
ge 6/ 27
ge 7/ 48

3:42 am

lshult

I'm here too, just been babbling hard and not reading the chat. Words not flowing any more so decided to see who's there.

3:42 am

Haz1558

That's good - I don't have a lot of free time today so hopefully I can get it completed.

3:44 am

MissyMe

Blaze Those three are the last ones on the list, in order

3:44 am

ramix

hi blaze...de6/30 pretty please...:)

3:45 am

Blaze

the root for the three words is ge* (like map class)
def: of 5/16 " A hollow, usually spheroidal rock with crystals lining the inside wall." Just keep adding to the root word

3:46 am

MissyMe

ramix de + ga/47

:)

3:46 am

Blaze

de 6/30 slang for basketball or de ++ what you hunt

3:48 am

ramix

thanks :)

3:49 am

Blaze

I am over and out for now....

3:50 am

lshult

blaze- got the ge 5 & 6 , but the ending for the 7 just won't come to me?

3:51 am

MissyMe

Thank you :)

3:52 am

Dianne

lshutt - think of Homer's Ode--- for the ending.

3:53 am

MissyMe

Good clue :) I was trying to think how to answer that one

3:55 am

MissyMe

Okay these are the other two I got stuck on. They're both the ones towards the bottom of the list. :)

de 6/ 24
de 7/ 40

3:55 am

Dianne

Some times the light bulb lights up :)

3:55 am

ramix

de + what you make calls on minus the h...and its past tense

3:57 am

MissyMe

Thank you remix :)

3:57 am

MissyMe

Dianne lol

3:58 am

ramix

still stuck on that ge 7...the homeric ending isn't working for me!

3:59 am

MissyMe

Lemme think of a way to put it

Its the sometimes "vowel" you need to add to the end of the word

4:01 am

Haz1558

Ge plus type of poem (plural) plus vowel like letter with value of 3

4:02 am

Dianne

ramix - look at the last several E words for the letter you need.

4:03 am

MissyMe

And add that last vowel/consonant to ge6/27

4:04 am

ramix

aaaaargh...it's official. i'm dense. i'm totally lost. still dont get it

4:06 am

ramix

never mind...got it! i was thinking of the other homeric ending (e4/6) so it got me confused

4:06 am

MissyMe

Say that little jingle to yourself kids say to remember they're vowels a...e...and sometimes...*

then add it to the end of ge6/27

4:07 am

MissyMe

cool :)

de 4/ 7 anyone have this one?

4:07 am

Dianne

ramix - Do you have the Ge 5/16 and 6/27? If so go to the last few E words and ad the 2nd letter to the 6/27.

4:08 am

ramix

dianne..got it. thanks for all your help everyone

4:08 am

Dianne

ramix - glad you got it :)

4:09 am

Dianne

Missy - there are 7 in a week but spelled differently.

4:09 am

Haz1558

de 4/7 - uses the 'sometimes' vowel

4:12 am

MissyMe

Got it...thanx lol Why do they look so easy AFTER you get them?

4:14 am

Haz1558

Some of them look easy once you've got them. Others just look completely implausible, but this game has certainly stretched my vocabulary!

4:15 am

MissyMe

Haz...I'm amazed all these strange words. I've done puzzles for years but I think I haven't run across as many odd ones as here on this game

4:16 am

Haz1558

I agree - I think new people get frustrated by all the words that they don't know and almost offended that words exist that they haven't encountered. The rest of us seem to be content to learn something new every single day!

4:17 am

MissyMe

It's possible because most puzzles I've played usually don't allow anything but English words...and of course we're all international so many cultural words are included

4:18 am

Haz1558

It's a bit hit and miss with the foreign words, though. Still, we live and learn and continue to babble.

4:18 am

zubie

Phew. About time, too! 158 words 4.65 1914

4:18 am

MissyMe

Wow Zubie! Nice :)

4:19 am

Haz1558

Well done, zubie!

4:19 am

zubie

Thanks, Haz, Missy! Tell me that I'm spending too much time here! :D

4:20 am

Haz1558

We're ALL spending too much time here!

4:20 am

MissyMe

*looks around guiltily* Well, I don't think you are because I know I'm not and I see you here a lot...

4:22 am

mousakka

clues for ge 7/48 please.....

4:23 am

Haz1558

ge 7/48 works off ge 5/12. Ge plus type of poem. Add plural for ge 6/27. Then add penultimate letter of alphabet for ge 7/48

4:24 am

MissyMe

ge 7/48 add the sometimes vowel/consonant to ge 6/27

4:26 am

lshult

can anyone help with the ae4/4
feel stupid, but have monkeyed until my fingers want to drop off. somehow still missed it?

4:26 am

zubie

Ooh thanks, Missy! :D *Sigh* This babbling addiction!

4:27 am

MissyMe

zubie I hear ya :)

4:27 am

Haz1558

Right, I must go and do useful things. We've just had a new dining room suite delivered and I have to replace all the china etc in the cabinets. My dear husband was being helpful yesterday in taking stuff out, but managed to smash three crystal glasses. I think I'll get the things back in before he comes back to help again...

4:28 am

MissyMe

Haz lol When husbands help and break things you just hate to show disappointment. Take care bye

4:29 am

Haz1558

I managed to stay calm but my daughter gave him a good telling off! Talk about reversal of roles!

4:30 am

MissyMe

That must have been a picture...and probably startled both you and your husband :)

4:30 am

zubie

MissyMe, this is for you. No, I will not explain why. :D

((((((((((((((MissyMe))) )))))))))))))

And no, it has nothing to do with our conversation just now :D

4:30 am

Haz1558

We're both used to being told off!

4:31 am

MissyMe

Haz lol

Wow Zubie...thank you hon *gathers up her hug and tucks it away in her heart*

4:35 am

zubie

Well, I'm off now. See you all for the next grid. Hugs to all!

4:35 am

MissyMe

Nite Zubie :) I'm headed that way too

Xmas shopping tomorrow...ugh

4:48 am

Eva

Good morning! I always seem to emerge between time zones -just as you overseas (from me) guys are finishing and before my compatriots are awake. Began typing away around 4:30. What a ridiculous time to wake up and it has nothing to do with schedule....just when my body says. Should have been born on a farm. Haved 110 and grinding away. Does anyone have a mercy clue for the c7?

4:51 am

Dianne

Good morning Eva - Think of Frand Sinatra.

4:52 am

Dianne

You know I meant Frank :)

4:54 am

Eva

Thanks Dianne! That did it. I'm still missing one 7 -have a c, 2d's, an e, a g and a t. What am I missing?

4:56 am

Dianne

Eva - the are two C7's - think ham and swiss.

4:57 am

Eva

Thanks again!

4:58 am

Dianne

You are welcome.

5:02 am

Dianne

O.K. I'm saving my last 5 to enter in the morning - lame excuse to play a little bit then. I'm off - time to go for dinner.

5:23 am

lola100

Good morning everyone :)

Could I please have some help with the ae5/12 and the last se6/24?

5:27 am

Yoink

Hi Lola, I haven't got the ae, but I have one se6/24, the clue I read was se followed by what you scratch, spelled wrong

5:28 am

Yoink

Oh, just got the ae5, sounds like a word for assistants

5:32 am

lola100

Hi yoink...and two big thank yous! :)
How you doing today?

5:33 am

Yoink

Just enjoying a lazy morning at work, the guy I share an office with is off this morning so I have had plenty babbling time! Down to 68 words to go

5:35 am

lola100

Good for you! I have a cold and my toddler is home today :(
At least it was a nice, gentle grid today though :)

5:36 am

Yoink

Aww, hope you feel better soon. Not changing hamster for bird today?

5:37 am

lola100

To be honest I just didn't feel like it :(
Won't be around for too long anyway, my nice warm bed is calling!

5:39 am

Yoink

Fair enough, I didn't really want to lose my kung-fun hamster either, I may go back to it another day

5:41 am

licketySplitAUS

Foreign words??? Nooooo!!!!

5:41 am

lola100

lol! Yeah, he was very cute! Well, it was nice chatting to you but I'm going to have an early lunch and then dose myself up and retreat to bed (toddler willing, of course). Need any clues before I go?

5:43 am

Yoink

Oh tons! LOL but the 2 d7s would be handy

5:47 am

lola100

Okay, the first one is the plural of the de6/27 before it. Think decipher. The other is the past tense of the de6/27 before it which uses your first po4/5 :)

5:47 am

MissyMe

de7/40 de + co5/14
de7/40 de + what you make calls on minus the h...and its past tense of one above

5:48 am

Yoink

Thanks a bunch Lola and MissyMe, got them :)

5:51 am

movieman

Welcome, everybody to this, another day, another Babble........

This one may seem easy to some of you folks, but don't rest on yer laurels, 'cos I'm pretty damn sure Dr. God's got something sneaky planned to celebrate no. 10000 in less than a fortnight's time...

5:51 am

MissyMe

Youre welcome :)

5:52 am

MissyMe

Is he going to give us more time to complete it?

And hello :)

5:52 am

movieman

Oops, I think I overdid it with the zeros.......

I meant no. 1000......

*slaps forehead very hard*

5:52 am

Yoink

Hi Movieman, maybe a 10000 word grid? :-D

5:53 am

Yoink

Or 1000 then, heh

5:54 am

MissyMe

hehe I was thinking maybe a week to complete the 10k one

5:54 am

lola100

Hi movieman :)

I'm off now guys. Have fun and maybe see you later :)

5:55 am

Yoink

Bye Lola, get plenty of rest and fluids!

5:56 am

MissyMe

lola100 Good night :)

5:57 am

ExWren

I have wasted far too much time on one of the ye4x6's, obviously I have got the easy one.

5:57 am

MissyMe

arg 8 words left

5:57 am

MissyMe

ExWren Im missing the harder one too...I've been monkey typing everything (but obviously not the right one)

5:58 am

stillcrazy

ye 4....think yippee

6:02 am

Yoink

Both ye4s are plurals, one an old version of yes still used in votes - ye** or nays, the other is plural of a desire for something

Why not? It's a word. Techno has been a word since the 80's!! :D

6:03 am

ExWren

just got it, I was only using the 'e' to the right of y!

6:03 am

MissyMe

Yoink Thanx...it was that last clue you gave I was missing. :)

6:04 am

MissyMe

licketySplitAUS I found two other words in the grid that are not acceptable lol

6:05 am

licketySplitAUS

MissyMe... so did I and it is too much that foreign words are ok but not the good old slang!!

6:06 am

movieman

Does anyone else find the vowel words as difficult to locate as I do....

They are so damn inconspicuous...

6:06 am

MissyMe

licketySplitAUS I take it your in the US like me. Oh those terrible foreign words! :D Well, it certainly is increasing my vocabular.

6:08 am

MissyMe

Movieman Yes...after typing over and over they start to blend together. I end up mispelling words I know the grid doesn't accept. I'm like, Wha???, come on thats a word! Then I retype it and its accepted...hehe

6:08 am

licketySplitAUS

No LOL, not in the US... I actually missed the word "COLOR' in one Babble becasue of the 'foreign' aspect!!

6:09 am

MissyMe

I was thinking that very thing today, the subtle differences in our spellings and how it may be hard to complete a puzzle because of it.

6:11 am

MissyMe

Anyone get the sa5/16 word yet?

6:12 am

Yoink

The Enable dictionary accepts English and US spellings though

6:12 am

movieman

Missy - I agree...

I reckon there should be a version for all you wonderful folks across the pond with your alternative spellings, and one for everyone else...

6:13 am

MissyMe

Yoink Is that an online dictionary?

6:13 am

Yoink

MissyMe, a 3 letter word for speak and then what you have to prove your age

6:13 am

licketySplitAUS

MissyMe
a type of hammer misspelt and missing the second letter

6:15 am

MissyMe

Thank you both Got it :)

6:15 am

Yoink

The enable dictionary is the one which Babble uses, it stands for Enhanced North American Benchmark LExicon

6:15 am

licketySplitAUS

Then again, anything I type is misspelt!! LOL :D

6:16 am

MissyMe

lol

6:17 am

MissyMe

Yoink So the link to it is thoe question marks by the words?

6:18 am

licketySplitAUS

Oh My Goodness! I just got a word that is sooooo easy and obvious and RIGHT INFRONT OF MY FACE that I feel absolutely stupid for not seeing it... how frustrating!!

6:19 am

MissyMe

licketySplitAUS Well at least you didn't embarass yourself further by asking for the hint like I do. :D

6:19 am

Yoink

MissyMe, no that takes you to Dictionary.com which feeds from various sources but sometimes doesn't have definitions for words allowed by Babble. You can find out a bit about the ENABLE dictionary and d/l a version of it here: http://www.haversack.com/whack aword/dicts.htm

6:22 am

MissyMe

That dictionary sounds cool. Thanx for the link

6:27 am

licketySplitAUS

can't get the Q4 to save my life!!

6:28 am

movieman

lickety - the qu4 sound like a suffix meaning four...

6:29 am

licketySplitAUS

Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhgggggggg!!! Thanks.... (sobbing)

6:34 am

MissyMe

Well, these last six are robbing me of my good nature so I better quit for now.

Night all :D

9:06 am

hurshy

9:07 am

Atalante

I think thats a necessary quality for babbaholic-ness!

9:08 am

Jen

ge7: "The geologic science of the size and shape of the earth." (or, just add a large point letter to the word that comes before it)
se6: make your se4/5 past tense

9:10 am

hurshy

ok, i'm dying for someone to ask me about my ic4.

9:10 am

Jen

Done... anyone need anything before I head out?

9:10 am

Bugzy

Good day, Babblers!
I think this puzzle could use a few more E's!! :)

9:10 am

ExWren

Am I the only one who is finding this grid more difficult than usual, I have been working on this one for ages, and only have 35 words so far.

9:11 am

evanadine

9:12 am

Bugzy

OK Hurshy... What's up with the icon?
(I think I can guess what the guy just shot tho :) )

9:12 am

hurshy

9:26 am

smithchick

9:27 am

Bugzy

I don't even have the first de6/27 :)
Not seeing the longer words today!!

9:27 am

smithchick

Yes, the second one. Any clues?

9:28 am

hurshy

first de 6/27 to figure out a cipher

9:29 am

Bugzy

Thanks hurshy... darn those prefixes!!

9:30 am

harpjane

How about the de 6/30? Does anyone have that? Or the 5/14 that follows? I'm bound and determined to get the de's before work. Not looking good.

9:31 am

hurshy

i have the 5/14 - to remove frozen water

9:32 am

ToeSockMonkey

Hello smith!
Bugzy, ROFL! you called me tosomo! lol
Harpjane, No I haven't seen it but not I am curious!

9:33 am

Bugzy

de6/30-- de + Monopoly, Scrabble, etc.
Just monkeyed it.

9:33 am

hurshy

6/30 to remove football? or scrabble?

9:33 am

smithchick

The de6/30: add prefix to your g4/7

9:33 am

hurshy

9:33 am

Bugzy

:)

9:34 am

smithchick

Does anyone else think that de6/30 is a dumb word?

9:34 am

hurshy

hear here!

9:35 am

Mary

I've been doing this for almost a year now and there are an awfully lot of DUMB words

9:36 am

smithchick

Ain't that the truth. Why isn't ain't a word on here? Hasn't the dictionary been to the southern USA?

9:37 am

hurshy

but smithchick, it also wouldn't have isn't, or any other contraction.

9:37 am

smithchick

Marc, did you get your other ey4/6?

9:38 am

smithchick

Down to that one pesky de6/27... Please I'm desperate!

9:38 am

harpjane

TSM-I just looked for a link to the calendar, couldn't find it. It's a local thing. I'll keep trying. It's hysterical! And a demonstration of the mindful abilities of TSM's everywhere.

Getting closer on the de--words. Three to go. If the elusive 6/27 I'll post a clue. After I de 5/14 my car.

9:38 am

Bugzy

I think a better word would be de-po4/5, to get rid of X-rated mags and videos :)

9:39 am

Miyavi_fan

X-rated magazines and videos? So of course I choose now to come in!

9:40 am

harpjane

Yes, Bugsy, I tried de po4. Should be a word.

9:40 am

Bugzy

Hey Miyavi ! Good timing :)

9:41 am

Miyavi_fan

Hey Bugzy, how are ya?

9:41 am

smithchick

Oh my gosh. The de6/27 is a past tense of that de5/14 harpjane. Major headslapping going on right now. I'm done!!! Anyone want any clues from me before I get into my housewife mode?

9:42 am

hurshy

yeah, i just figured it out too smith! kept starting with the wrong d.

9:42 am

Bugzy

Splendid... and you?

9:42 am

Miyavi_fan

...It's like in my school's German books. The books feature a family called the Koch's, to teach the kids German. Bearing in mind that Koch is pronounced Cock, and that these books are going to be read aloud by teenagers, could the authors honestly not think of any better name?!
