Sounds like arrow poison, we had the word yesterday

10:23 am

rururocks

It's like a broken record around here sometimes

10:30 am

MollyL

It would help if when people ask for clues and then leave they go back to where they originally asked in chat to see if the word was clued.

3:28 pm

cybernan

3:36 pm

cybernan

*!*~*!*

3:36 pm

hurshy

3:37 pm

hurshy

3:57 pm

hokie carla

3:58 pm

hokie carla

ftr, I have the c gray, so that wasn't helpful.

4:03 pm

hokie carla

have made it down to 11. the good news is 5 are 4's. the bad news is I haven't seen them all day, so why will I now? the other bad news is I have 5 6's and a 7 left.

Sophie512

go Carla go!!!

4:59 pm

Gillie

carla,if you see this when you get back, have you got the alternate spelling of a large flightless bird? That could be one of your 4s

5:01 pm

Gillie

And there's a 4-letter word starting with R that is otherwise all vowels

5:05 pm

Gillie

I would guess that your 7 had to be wo7/44, but I see that you have all your Ws

5:06 pm

Gillie

Maybe eu7/36? Ends like a common topical pain medication.

5:07 pm

Gillie

Or like a popular but illegal powder

5:09 pm

Gillie

Anyway, that's me for today!

6:30 pm

hokie carla

6:49 pm

hokie carla

the weird one is similar to those cu poisons from yesterday

6:49 pm

hokie carla

that didn't help me remember them though and I looked it up this morning

6:50 pm

hokie carla

I just hit some tennis balls earlier with my brand new racquet. love it!

6:50 pm

penquis

i know the cu words....can't seem to make a wo 7 with that...

6:50 pm

penquis

oh good!!....played two hours this morning....will play triples on Saturday...

6:51 pm

hokie carla

triples. I 'm going to pretend I know what you mean. one against two?

6:52 pm

penquis

no...three on each side....one on the T and two back....you play with a kids tennis ball....when you hit it, it doesn't go as far or as fast....after each point, the team members rotate....

6:52 pm

hokie carla

interesting

6:52 pm

penquis

we call one against two Canadian doubles....no idea why...

6:52 pm

penquis

it's fun to play....

6:53 pm

hokie carla

oh yeah, we always called it that too

6:55 pm

hokie carla

think I'm going to have to list for my last 3

6:56 pm

penquis

me, too...getting nowhere....

6:59 pm

hokie carla

well the r was re6 regular word

6:59 pm

hokie carla

7:00 pm

hokie carla

7:03 pm

penquis

7:04 pm

hokie carla

starts with ***-hoo!

7:04 pm

hokie carla

ends like magnum pi's, I mean robin masters's car.

7:04 pm

penquis

finally found it.....

7:05 pm

penquis

ty...

7:05 pm

penquis

there is no way that word should be accepted....*enable rant*....

7:10 pm

penquis

you can look up triples and see some video of people playing it...

7:11 pm

hokie carla

well, according to best word list, there was a different vowel ending also but enable doesn't accept it

7:11 pm

hokie carla

I will look that up!

7:13 pm

penquis

do you play Flashback at the NYT?...

7:15 pm

7:18 pm

hokie carla

can you play with games sub because I don't have full paper sub

7:19 pm

penquis

don't think so....i just pay $1 a week and I get the whole digital paper....i was given the rate when I tried to cancel my subscription...

7:21 pm

penquis

in Flashback you are given an event in history....then you have to place other historical events in order in relation to the first one...then the first two...etc....you are just organizing events ....you get feedback after every event you place...

7:22 pm

penquis

it's fun...

7:23 pm

nrkii

1-1-1-1
R - H
R - E

7:23 pm

hokie carla

7:24 pm

hokie carla

but very similar to a game I used to play and now can't remember the link.

7:24 pm

penquis

7:25 pm

penquis

some games are harder than others...

7:25 pm

hokie carla

4/8 events

7:25 pm

7:25 pm

hokie carla
