Darn!

7:26 am

Although I suspect most of you will stay in pajamas and go spend time on another word game 😊

7:27 am

Kiani

I'm stuck in the office for the next several hours, so no pjs for me

7:28 am

origami

Could be a good day for pajamas and a movie.

7:28 am

MollyL

Me either. My office frowns on the wearing of pajamas to work.

7:48 am

8:43 am

hokie carla

8:43 am

hokie carla

I have a good idea on your g

8:44 am

dan2bit

I'll take a clue. also I know your missing Ns

8:44 am

hokie carla

ga5, we have it and all 100 spellings of it here occasionally

8:44 am

hokie carla

ga5/20

8:45 am

hokie carla

will take a hint on the Ns

8:45 am

dan2bit

oh "geez" ty

8:45 am

hokie carla

np

8:45 am

dan2bit

one of the baseball divisions is the na7 league

8:45 am

hokie carla

oh, I have that, but thanks

8:45 am

dan2bit

oh whoops sorry that's na8

8:46 am

dan2bit

no6/27 cream removed

8:46 am

hokie carla

have that

8:47 am

dan2bit

oops sorry

8:47 am

hokie carla

so if you don't have the 7 either it must be T

8:47 am

dan2bit

yes I am missing a T5 and a T7 but not sure which is from top and which from bottom

8:48 am

dan2bit

I have the t5 dance

8:48 am

hokie carla

and the bottom T is not THANG, no matter how many times I try it

8:48 am

hokie carla

ah, I am missing the dance

8:48 am

hokie carla

which means you are missing the babblet from the top, that rhymes with the mob

8:49 am

hokie carla

which means the bottom T is the 7

8:49 am

dan2bit

then your N might be indian bread? or n + 3 vowel babblet?

8:49 am

hokie carla

ah, that babblet I always miss, thx

8:49 am

MollyL

I thought it was n, two vowels consonant

8:50 am

hokie carla

did you see my T clue for you? sometimes posts sneak in

8:50 am

dan2bit

I got the t5 thanks

8:50 am

hokie carla

the architecture one is 3 vowels, molly

8:50 am

hokie carla

no S in the grid

8:50 am

dan2bit

th7 ends like no6 with a word for how long you've been alive

8:50 am

dan2bit

firewords

8:51 am

MollyL

I misread his clue, I thought he was cluing the bread

8:51 am

hokie carla

ah, thanks. and well done.

8:51 am

hokie carla

now 1-1 left, P & N. surely I can figure this out.

8:52 am

dan2bit

in time to watch Brazil-Croatia

8:52 am

hokie carla

ooh, for some reason I thought the next round started tomorrow

8:54 am

hokie carla

well winston is nudging me. hopefully I'll see the words when I come back.

8:56 am

MollyL

Whoa, I got Wordle in 2. That may be a first for me.

9:04 am

hokie carla

nice!

9:05 am

hokie carla

lol, thought I had it in 3 but nope, one letter off

9:13 am

MollyL

I got three letters in my first word. That doesn't usually happen

9:15 am

hokie carla

I had 1 green and 2 yellow in my first word but still took me 4

9:19 am

hokie carla

odd, yesterday I kept seeing phantom papal here but missed papal in the bee

9:23 am

dan2bit

10:11 am

mattygroves

Evening all! May I have stats, please for the lone A in the fourth row, fourth column (above the H)?

10:12 am

sukee

when you don't know the author of a work

10:12 am

mattygroves

I have that - it's from the second row A ;)

10:12 am

mattygroves

If it's AN4/4 you mean

10:12 am

sukee

okay, similar, ends in a vowel

10:14 am

sukee

or, it's the an 4/6

10:14 am

sukee

or ag 4/6

10:14 am

sukee

lol, I can't tell which one it is

10:15 am

mattygroves

It's not the an4/4 that is similar to the other that ends in the vowel, and it's definitely not the ag - I'm looking for the A that is above the H, so no G there ;)

10:15 am

sukee

so must be an 4/6

10:16 am

mattygroves

Yep, that's the one, thanks!

10:16 am

penquis

i believe it is an 4/6....but there are three words with that stat...

10:16 am

penquis

i take that back...the other two are ag words...

10:16 am

mattygroves

It was an an4/6, ta!

10:16 am

hokie carla

yeah, it's the one that is most of japanese comics

10:17 am

MollyL

Or the state of being mad, in Boston

10:17 am

sukee

I'm still missing one A from the second row

May I have stats for the 8, please?

10:19 am

penquis

11:58 am

dcseain

it's chilly, brightly sunny day here today. Foggy evenings, felling very midwinter. Chilly fog is Christmas weather here.

11:59 am

moolingwa

ah, chilly here too, also bright and sunny here in Colorado. Was pretty windy yesterday, but none today which is nice

11:59 am

dcseain

we had wind here day before yesterday, and two days near 60F

11:59 am

moolingwa

was around 15 when I went out walking this morning, but close to 30 or so now

11:59 am

11:59 am

dcseain

I vacuumed my car's interior yesterday

12:00 pm

moolingwa

ah just checked...won't get to mid 50s until Sunday...high of 47 today

12:00 pm

dcseain

not awful for that altitude :)

12:01 pm

moolingwa

then looks like we'll have a period later next week for about a week or so where it won't break freezing :)

12:01 pm

moolingwa

yeah, can be quite mild here at times, lots of sun

12:01 pm

dcseain

Monday evening we had a hard frost. Hime to put a scraper in the car.

12:01 pm

moolingwa

then we'll get the odd day where we'll have highs of 0 or somesuch

12:01 pm

dcseain

time to even :)

12:02 pm

dcseain

such lows are known, but reasonably uncommon here around DC.

12:03 pm

It was colder than that for Reagan's 2nd Inauguration. It was -4F in the morning and 7F at noon.

1:07 pm

MollyL

Someone finished this morning and said "none of them are off the wall". I beg to differ.

1:16 pm

cherlyq

never heard of the ag6 being used alone

1:16 pm

cherlyq

usually has a di or bi or something infront of it

1:17 pm

MollyL

And it doesn't even pertain to those words. It pertains to the anguish word

Sophie512

Just logged on to see if today's puzzle is doable when I get back on later this evening. Thinking so. But if this was that Boggle cube, it could use a good shaking and mix up those letters a little more. :)
