Oops just found one finally. Ty anyway

7:40 pm

hokie carla

hey mkg

7:42 pm

mkg

Hi carla. Back for more. Did some this morning early. But dont have the 9 or any 8s. I hate that i seldom get the large words without clues. Clues welcome though.

7:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

mk, often the longer words come from shorter words. going right for the longer words is a hard way to play.

7:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

i find that playing the game is a process. one word leads to another.

7:52 pm

mkg

I first go through and just put any words i see. Then i return to try to get no blank tiles. Then i look for blank stats. So it is not at first that i look. But i am not seeing more than 7s. I have four of them so far.

7:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

all this to day. when you ask. others present may not be at that point.

7:57 pm

mkg

Yup.

8:02 pm

mkg

Just got an 8

8:20 pm
