6:10 pm

hokie carla

6:12 pm

rururocks

i think it's a bit weird to use language like that on a word game site.. just my thoughts

6:14 pm

hokie carla

well, my short break isn't helping. guess I will have to list for my 15.

6:14 pm

hokie carla

6:15 pm

dan2bit

I vote we only police the chatterbox for grid words, myself. slinging slang is fine imo

6:15 pm

6:16 pm

penquis

nan....you are on that critter in the west....you are ah 5....

6:30 pm

cybernan

of course -- Richard III offered his kingdom for one :)

6:30 pm

hokie carla

I think that word every time it's in the grid is very highly requested

6:31 pm

cybernan

knew the word, just didn't see it

6:32 pm

hokie carla

no one ever sees it. I said earlier I need to start just typing it every time the h word is in the grid.

6:33 pm

penquis

is there an RE 8?

6:33 pm

hokie carla

ok, I have RR O
HH
Y A

6:34 pm

penquis

i am missing Rs, Hs, Ss and Ts...

6:34 pm

hokie carla

oh, I need 2 lower A's

6:35 pm

penquis

what RE 7 are you referring to? Stats?

6:36 pm

hokie carla

re7/32 and 8/45. maybe calculate your golf or bowling again. or make another shot in basketball.

6:37 pm

hokie carla

or decide you don't like the arrangement and re7 the music

6:37 pm

cybernan

er 7 please?

6:37 pm

penquis

ty....

6:37 pm

hokie carla

er7 is a drug. to make a mistake + almost a rear end.

6:38 pm

cybernan

ty carla

6:40 pm

hokie carla

ooh, just found an H7

6:40 pm

penquis

6:41 pm

penquis

6:41 pm

hokie carla

6:41 pm

hokie carla

still need 1 H

6:41 pm

penquis

6:42 pm

hokie carla

6:47 pm

6:47 pm

penquis

6:47 pm

6:48 pm

6:48 pm

hokie carla

think I will list too. still have squaredle to do.

6:48 pm

cybernan

do you have the ha 6 babblet, carla?

6:48 pm

hokie carla

there is no 9, but 4 8's. I have re8, he8, and ey8

6:48 pm

penquis

didn't mean that....no nines....

6:48 pm

penquis

i think whoever rates the difficulty of the squaredle grids is a bit off....

6:49 pm

hokie carla

I agree on that

6:49 pm

penquis

there is AT 8....

6:49 pm

hokie carla

that explains why I couldn't find those 2 A's then

6:50 pm

hokie carla

oh, the other is an ae

6:50 pm

hokie carla

is the at8 a weird one?

6:51 pm

cybernan

ru clued the at 8 last night as a reading room -- think greek

6:51 pm

penquis

have that one....done with the As.....Am I supposed to know rh 7?

6:51 pm

hokie carla

6:52 pm

penquis

6:53 pm

cybernan

did you find the at 8 carla?

6:53 pm

hokie carla

no, working on what I think you meant for the start

6:54 pm

cybernan

most of a greek city for the start

6:54 pm

cybernan

and standard greek "room" ending

6:54 pm

hokie carla

okay, I'm on the right track, just can't monkey the ending

6:55 pm

hokie carla

that's okay, I'll just look it up

6:55 pm

cybernan

ends the same as a football "arena"

6:56 pm

cybernan

or a gymn

6:56 pm

penquis

down to 3....is se 6 a normal word?

6:56 pm

cybernan

not to me

6:57 pm

cybernan

most of a flower in the middle pen

6:58 pm

hokie carla

okay, next to last vowel is different. I kept trying the other way even before your clue.

6:58 pm

penquis

got it, ty....

6:58 pm
