Christine

Two sixes, two fives....15 for 190... one 33 points, one 39... but that could be it, for me...... last week's horror seems quite nice, in comparison, right?

8:08 am

allstar

9:21 am

Mal

No only me because I am her little Sister and I live on the otherside of the world to her.

9:22 am

M&O

Aw, man. Just my luck to have no expert babble players in my family.

9:24 am

Mal

I have found the 33 point on my own.
My very clever sister is too mean to help me.

9:24 am

M&O

Is there only one 33 pointer?

9:26 am

M&O

Hey-- there really is a Z word! And it's not some bizarre words no one's ever heard of!

9:26 am

Mal

Your not asking me are you, I am the idiot of the family.

Mal

joyce

Хорошо я держал бы пари, играли ли мы в России, мы имели бы все виды слов здесь.

10:34 am

joyce

oops! Wasn't paying attention.. again!

10:35 am

joyce

How do I do these things??

11:09 am

itzie

You know, I actually prefer these "hard" ones to the easy ones where there are millions of words. In the harder ones, you stand a chance of finding all the words! If I had time to sit here with my dictionary, I could methodically go through the whole puzzle!

11:18 am

M&O

Re: The 7 worth 52-- Is this in theory, or is it a word that a person might get without random typing?

11:22 am

itzie

It's a pretty random word. I found it with my trusty dictionary. Random type away! The letter pattern makes sense, at least.

11:24 am

M&O

The letter pattern makes sense, so it's not tgrhryn, right?

11:28 am

signe

Hah! 4 letters 15 points!

cunninghampa

Since when is indice not a word?

1:31 pm

Mal

Christine I am back and I have no more words. I put in vrnim and it did not like it. Definately an "ooooops"

1:43 pm

Mal

I wish I knew what dictionary you are all using I do not have the 7 letter 52 points one in mine

1:57 pm

lawyer-1

The 7-letter word is an adj. meaning "Having stamens and pistils in separate flowers".

2:02 pm

Flamboyant

2:06 pm

Mal

Lawyer I'm glad you shared that with us I am non the wiser

2:09 pm

cunninghampa

Thanks Lawyer!

2:13 pm

Christine

Lawyer - thanks... I googled and found the word. Here's one for you.. an umbelliferous plant of the genera Myrrhis.
Now I'd better give Marianne the words, or she won't let me stay, next time I'm in UK.

2:24 pm

Mal

Don't you just love Big Sisters who are clever

2:28 pm

Flamboyant

thank you :)

2:29 pm

Christine

(1) My goodness, Joyce, I thought your weer swearing.(2) Anceps - do you have any numbers for us?? (3) Is there only one Z word? (4) Surely indice is a word?
And finally.... I'm waiting for a grid with OOOPS in it - let's see if it's accepted.

2:39 pm

Mal

Christine I am leaving you to it I am so baffled my head is aching.I am no one of your clever group.

2:46 pm

Christine

Marianne, get back in and I'll send you a 20-point word. If I'm addicted....
I'm ordeing pizza, 'cos I'm soooo close, I may need to stay past my 30-minute alloted time... I need only 2 fives and 4 fours.... I just might make it.

2:50 pm

anceps

- Numbers: 4724, 132, 99687, 588, 914. Do you need some more numbers? I can find a lot of them ;-)
- Only one word with z.
- 'indice' is indice
even if not right
would we die in it
should it give us light.

2:58 pm

hourfollowshour

Well, goddamn, I'm at the max.

2:58 pm

anceps

If you see the end
Of the 5 best found
You can wonder then:
Why in every one.

3:02 pm

Flamboyant

YaY!!!

3:04 pm

Christine

Anceps... are you telling me there is another Y word? Oh, and I guess the other word should be INDICES??

3:17 pm

anceps

I tell you nothing, I speak for everyone :-)
There are 8 words containing 'y'.
I'm away til tomorrow, good luck.

3:29 pm

Christine

I'm just not sure if Anceps is dropping clues, being coy, or just chatting with us.... I have four words with Y, so I guess that narrows down my search for the six words I need..

3:32 pm

cunninghampa

I have 4 good Y words so that means there must be one more. Hm.

3:41 pm

Christine

Oh no - s/he says there are eight words containing Y - I have four ending in Y, so the other four could start, end, or contain the letter....good grief, I need to get a life... I've been here over an hour, this time.

3:55 pm

Mal

Christine I am back but even more confused.Help!

4:04 pm

joyce

Christine..
I have no idea how I did that or what it is. That's what I get for multi tasking tho!!
And if you give me the words that you gave Marianne you can stay at my place next time you're in Calif. lol

4:21 pm

Mal

Christine you are not allowed to be bribed by Joyce does she know you live in California so that wont work.

4:50 pm
