GroovyKiwi
So the st is a 6/9/10/11 combo
4:58 am
Deeha
when i was at school we had a whole school general knowledge quiz. One year a question was 'what was the residue left at the bottom of a pipe?' And it was do6. being a Dorothy that was what I was called for the rest of my time at schhol!!
6:06 am
Sugrraleona
I got the 6/10/11 combo, but can't fine the 9 LOL
6:07 am
Sugrraleona
nm, got it LOL
8:03 am
hurshy
you can't just say "cancer", there's so many kinds and they all have their own treatments, lol
8:04 am
hurshy
(referring back to dizgrannie's comment for la8)
8:23 am
hokie carla
ooh, found a 9
8:27 am
MollyL
I think the comment about la8 is correct, as that is a treatment for many kinds of cancer. The drug is supposed to reverse the damaging effects of cancerous cells.
8:28 am
hurshy
ah, well, i guess i must not have heard of this drug
8:28 am
hurshy
(i don't have the word, obvs)
8:34 am
rururocks
oh i found it thanks molly
8:41 am
hokie carla
I have no idea (shocker)
8:43 am
hokie carla
43 left after first pass. not the greatest.
7-9-13-7-3-2-1-1
so many big words left. this will be a tough one and probably a DNF.
8:46 am
hokie carla
I also have no idea on the pipe word
8:46 am
MollyL
It's some oddball Scot/Brit word. Never heard of it until today
8:47 am
hokie carla
how many points?
8:47 am
hokie carla
found it
8:48 am
MollyL
And sorry, it's origin is French
8:48 am
hokie carla
but still need 1 D
8:48 am
hokie carla
scot word is almost always a safe assumption
8:48 am
MollyL
And our favorite, Middle English
8:49 am
hokie carla
which I assume = anything "archaic"
8:49 am
MollyL
Do you have the 7/32
8:49 am
hokie carla
no. of course not.
8:50 am
MollyL
It is a bird, very similar to the 6
8:50 am
hokie carla
I might need another nudge
8:50 am
hokie carla
oh, you did
8:52 am
hokie carla
thanks. looked it up.
8:53 am
rururocks
well I guess my missing 9 and 10 and 11 are s's
8:54 am
ChampFit
Yes, they are.
8:56 am
MollyL
You don't have to guess, just read the flip. They blurt everything 😊
8:59 am
mael
good morning
9:04 am
rururocks
oh got them..
9:05 am
mael
I started at 4am on and off and still have 56 left, hah
9:05 am
rururocks
once you find them you can just cruise through the big words
9:08 am
mael
just found a weird tr8
9:09 am
mael
by doing just that
9:13 am
ChampFit
Ooops....I'm not a fisherperson, but I knew that one.
9:13 am
MollyL
Mael obviously doesn't fish
9:13 am
mael
only fishing I do is for compliments
9:13 am
MollyL
Look at Champ, being all politically correct with fisherperson
9:14 am
ChampFit
For once. A day to remember!
9:15 am
MollyL
You deal with the public. I guess you have to be in tune with all that stuff.
9:16 am
MollyL
I still trip all over the they/them pronouns. I just call people by their name, it's easier.
9:17 am
ChampFit
Yep. I'll screw it up.
9:21 am
hokie carla
which T is that from? need 1 and 2
9:25 am
hokie carla
I guess I don't know fishing either
9:26 am
ChampFit
Do you want a hint?
9:27 am
mael
add the straight ending :)
9:28 am
ChampFit
That ending gets a lot of play today.
9:28 am
hokie carla

9:33 am
hokie carla
LOL, was just wanting to look up something on dick's sporting goods and almost typed dicks.com before I thought better.
9:34 am
ChampFit
That could come back on ya...good move!
9:34 am
MollyL
You would have gotten some interesting "hits"
9:37 am
hokie carla
yeah, so interesting
9:39 am
ChampFit
FW! Hagd everyone.
9:40 am
hokie carla
well done
9:46 am
hokie carla
you can have a hemline but not a seamline
9:50 am
hokie carla
oh no, just finished the 4s
9:51 am
mael

10:07 am
MollyL

10:23 am
dcseain

There's an award from Cannes in the grid today
11:04 am
MollyL
Award from Cannes?
11:05 am
MollyL
Oh, that would need an '
11:07 am
MollyL
I don't really follow the Cannes Film Festival
11:08 am
java2
I don't either, but that one just stands out for me.
11:09 am
java2
Perhaps because of the name
11:27 am
MollyL

12:03 pm
hurshy

12:03 pm
hurshy
not weird
12:03 pm
BzznBea
no4 and no6
12:04 pm
harpjane
what an ordinary word....ty
12:23 pm
hurshy
is the tr8 from the corner T or the right-hand T?
12:25 pm
pabtrek
Corner T.
12:27 pm
hurshy
and is it correct that there is a wa8 in addition to a wa9?
12:27 pm
pabtrek
I only have a wa9, but I still have 42 words to find.
12:28 pm
MollyL
wa8 not related to the wa9
12:29 pm
SamanthaJoy
I have no 8s or 9s but I got here, like, a minute and a half ago. Good afternoon y'all
12:30 pm
hurshy
ok thanks molly
12:32 pm
hurshy
phew, wouldn't have gotten THAT without morewords
12:32 pm
hurshy
is that like... rich snooty people's trash doesn't go to the junkyard, it goes to a wa8?
12:58 pm
MollyL
Just another Scot word that we are all supposed to know. How, I'm not sure.
1:25 pm
hydra
Why is realtor not allowed?
1:26 pm
MollyL
It is a trademarked word.
1:27 pm
hydra
I thought a realtor was someone who sold houses, like an estate agent in the UK.
1:27 pm
MollyL
It is. It is still a trademarked word. Nationa Association of Realtors owns the trademark.
1:28 pm
hydra
Yet when I checked the spelling and definition, it started with a lower case r.
1:29 pm
MollyL
Estate agent? That is kind of funny since I'm sure everything they sell is not an "estate"
1:30 pm
MollyL
If you do a Google search for realtor you will see it printed in all caps and the trademark symbol behind it in all entries
2:06 pm
lbuxx

2:16 pm
mkg

2:17 pm

2:17 pm
nrkii

2:18 pm
nrkii

2:19 pm
mkg

2:26 pm
nrkii
down to 10, but 5 of them are 7-letter words... ugh
3:01 pm
lbuxx
PL7 - reminds me of old time walls
3:02 pm
lbuxx
PA7/32 works off of the PA6 right above it
3:14 pm
nrkii
is there an M7?
3:32 pm
nrkii
and it just jumped right out at me as soon as you said yes
4:07 pm
hurshy
ok, 10 to go
4:10 pm
hurshy
3 of mine are 7s too
4:11 pm
hurshy
but i seem to have all the ones that have been mentioned in chat
4:13 pm
hurshy
(which was a 6, a plural)
4:15 pm
hurshy
got my A! (also a 6)
4:16 pm
hurshy
ooh my G was so easy!
4:36 pm
hurshy

4:38 pm
Gillie
Do you have sa7? I just got it.
4:39 pm
hurshy
thank you!
4:40 pm
Gillie
yw - I guess there's also a third st7 which I haven't found yet
4:41 pm
hurshy
yeah i just got the list so now i got that
4:41 pm
hurshy
and the last one is a wa7, alt sp of the 8 i guess
4:42 pm
Gillie
Just got it - kind of like a Hollywood actress
4:46 pm
Gillie
And wa7 is a slightly compacted version of the wa8 before it - that's all the 7's for me
4:46 pm
Gillie
(I needed MoreWords for the wa8 and wa7.)
4:50 pm
Gillie
And now I've tidied up the rest - last word ta5/18
5:25 pm
poor richard
OK, I give. Clue for the st 11, please.
5:26 pm
ch1212
It's the person who does the st10 if that helps - just add a consonant to the 10
5:30 pm
ch1212
Let me know if you need a clue for the 10 :)
5:30 pm
poor richard
Thanks, ch 1212, but I don't even have the st 10. Can you give me some help?
5:32 pm
ch1212
Yes. First 6 letters are the word that means creek or liquid flow (st6/21) from there add a four letter geometry word, straight ****
5:33 pm
ch1212
The definition is to pare something down, make it more efficient.
5:40 pm
poor richard
Thanks, ch1212. Got 'em. Feeling pretty stupid here. 🤨
5:41 pm
ch1212
we've all been there. Me, I have even struggled mightily over a simple 4 letter word.
5:44 pm
ch1212
that's fw for me. Good luck all!
