Done, thanks for the clue, i think this is the hardest puzzle I have seen in a long time. or maybe the brain is not that sharp today?
9:18 am
saanichcat

could I have a hint on the in9 ?
9:19 am
welki

it means to forbid, but maybe if you fool around with - within webster's - you might get it
9:20 am
penquis

to prohibit or forbid....starts with the word for bury....
9:23 am
saanichcat

Thank you
9:24 am
penquis

yw...
9:36 am
saanichcat

this is a very hard grid today
9:36 am
LuvWordGames

I agree!
9:37 am
penquis

yes....no fun to be stalled at 113!
9:37 am
hokie carla

I played last night and am at 107
9:38 am
hokie carla

hoping to see more on my laptop than I did on the ipad
9:38 am
penquis

i hate to tell you, but the grid is the same...
9:39 am
hokie carla

lol, I know, but I can see it better
9:39 am
hokie carla

and type faster
9:41 am
penquis

you brought me luck....found 7 more words... ;o)
9:42 am
hokie carla

made it down to 101
9:42 am
hokie carla

on just 2 tiles
9:42 am
saanichcat

52 here
9:42 am
hokie carla

nice
9:43 am
hokie carla

phantom tendril
9:43 am
BzznBea

me too
9:43 am
hokie carla

and lenient
9:43 am
penquis

and tenant...
9:43 am
hokie carla

yep
9:43 am
penquis

and medical...
9:43 am
hokie carla

had not seen that one
9:45 am
penquis

lots of phantoms here...
9:45 am
hokie carla

yep
9:48 am
mael

phantom: mendicant
9:48 am
hokie carla

nope
9:48 am
hokie carla

don't think I've ever seen that word anywhere
9:48 am
hokie carla

ooh, grayed the first col L
9:49 am
penquis

just found the an 9....didn't think that the root could be made into a comparative....
9:50 am
mael

Latin roots are both helpful and very annoying in babble
9:50 am
hokie carla

so is the root a 6? I don't have any 9s yet
9:50 am
mael

That's the only other 9 I've got, pen. Sounds weird too
9:50 am
penquis

like being pregnanter....
9:51 am
hokie carla

guessing I don't have the root
9:51 am
penquis

starts with the A on the right...
9:53 am
mael

old as balls is the technical term
9:54 am
hokie carla

think I'll do wordle and come back
9:55 am
LuvWordGames

wordle's tough today too
9:56 am
penquis

anyone know the word that broke the most successful wordle streaks in 2024?...learned this on Who Wants to be a Millionaire...
9:56 am
LuvWordGames

yes, I saw that and I was surprised at what it was
9:56 am
penquis

me, too....
9:58 am
BzznBea

What was the word?
9:58 am
penquis

corer...
9:58 am
LuvWordGames

corer
9:59 am
BzznBea

I can see that.
9:59 am
hokie carla

yeah, gonna have to go back to that after 3 guesses
10:00 am
penquis

guess there were too many possiblities if one guessed teh R and the E....
10:01 am
mael

I remember losing my original streak on FOYER
10:01 am
penquis

now that one looks harder to find...
10:01 am
BzznBea

C and O or not often letters that I would use.
10:01 am
BzznBea

not use
10:01 am
penquis

well if I had the ER, I might try the O....
10:02 am
penquis

but I don't really play wordle much...
10:02 am
hokie carla

just checked my archive - I failed it
10:02 am
mael

yeah, and then there's about a million combos for _O_ER
10:02 am
hokie carla

last 4 guesses were CODER COMER COWER COVER
10:03 am
hokie carla

I often struggle to remember to repeat letters
10:03 am
penquis

very true...and people might have tried A or I instead of O....
10:03 am
LuvWordGames

I didn't know you could check your previous plays. How do you do it, carla?
10:04 am
hokie carla

on the games drop down menu you can see wordle archives. I googled what day it was - Oct 15 of last year.
10:04 am
penquis

you remembered the day???
10:05 am
hokie carla

you might have to click the arrow on the right to expand under wordle
10:05 am
hokie carla

no, I googled "what day was corer the wordle answer"
10:05 am
penquis

ah, ok...
10:05 am
penquis

for a minute, I thought it might have been a traumatic experience for you.. ;oP
10:06 am
hokie carla

no, I gave up worrying about streaks around the time NYT bought it because my stats didn't transfer over like they were supposed to
10:06 am
LuvWordGames

have you subscribed to the site because I haven't and it appears it won't let me look at it
10:07 am
hokie carla

back to this one - why is the upper E so hard?
10:07 am
hokie carla

yes, I have a games sub
10:07 am
LuvWordGames

well that sounds like a nice feature but not sure I'm ready to subscribe.
10:09 am
hokie carla

I did games only when they had a special and then when they try to raise I threaten canceling and then they let me keep that deal
10:09 am
hokie carla

now they try to get me to subscribe to the whole thing for cheap but I don't
10:10 am
LuvWordGames

lol sounds like my experience with subscribing to Sirius radio
10:10 am
penquis

i do....when they want $25 a month, i unsubscribe...then they offer me $6 a month within a week's time...
10:12 am
penquis

and that's for the digital edition of the NYT...
10:16 am
welki

when mine is about to expire, i start the dance, too - until they cave and give me the $30/year CAD i've had for years. i hope they keep up the good work :)
10:16 am
penquis

CAD?
10:16 am
welki

canadian dollars
10:16 am
hokie carla

yeah, I canceled my siriusxm the other day and they gave me 3 more offers, the lowest being $6.99/mo. I think I was paying like $24.
10:16 am
penquis

ah...excellent!
10:17 am
LuvWordGames

I got an offer for $3.99 mo. from Sirius and jumped on that
10:17 am
hokie carla

oh, found that en6 that reminds me of california
10:17 am
hokie carla

and it has a 7
10:18 am
penquis

it doesn't cost them anything to sell it cheaper to you....at least they make a little money off you....
10:18 am
hokie carla

I'm so over their DJs, will just use my spotify when I drive
10:18 am
welki

i wish i had taken advantage of the $300 lifetime sirius subscription when they first started out
10:18 am
LuvWordGames

wow that would be amazing, welki!
10:18 am
welki

"it'll never last," she said
10:19 am
hokie carla

I don't rem that deal in the US. but when they started, they were separate and my car had XM.
10:20 am
welki

that was in the states, carla - many, many years ago (maybe early 2000s)
10:20 am
LuvWordGames

but kowning me, I probably wouldn't have taken advantage of that offer at the time either
10:21 am
hokie carla

yeah, I think my minivan I got in 2001 was the first radio I had with XM
10:23 am
hokie carla

wow, still need 16 more c's
10:23 am
penquis

i need 15...
10:24 am
welki

blech. i have 75 left (12 c words) and can't see a thing. going to do some chores - later, everyone
10:24 am

10:25 am
ivesyj

10:25 am
penquis

the prefix is the same...
10:25 am
penquis

that's the first five letters...
10:26 am
ivesyj

so far i have that lol. its the rest that has me stumped
10:26 am
hokie carla

well, you're way ahead of me. still no 9s, and only 1 8.
10:26 am
penquis

the second part is a real word...
10:27 am
penquis

i have never heard of the combination....
10:27 am
hokie carla

phantom initial
10:29 am
hokie carla

well, just found a prefix and tried a bunch of regular words with it but no luck
10:29 am
ivesyj

same here hokie
10:29 am
ivesyj

scream it out if you find it lol
10:29 am
hokie carla

I will
10:29 am
penquis

the second part has to do with a court proceeding...
10:29 am
hokie carla

thanks, pen
10:29 am
penquis

or should i say IS a court proceeding...
10:30 am
72 Temple Owl

are there any against words?
10:30 am
hokie carla

I've only found the 4 letter one
10:30 am
hokie carla

and the 6 that I don't what it means but has those 4 letters
10:30 am
penquis

i have found one an 7 that starts with the against word...
10:31 am
72 Temple Owl

thanks
10:31 am
ivesyj

thanks penquis!! that helped !!
10:31 am
hokie carla

it's not against beer because I tried that last night
10:31 am
penquis

i guess it's a real word...
10:31 am
72 Temple Owl

hmm i see neither beer ale stout nor alcohol
10:31 am
hokie carla

ale is right there
10:32 am
72 Temple Owl

oops divided attention. time to run to p o before it (hopefully) rains
10:32 am
hokie carla

ok, the in9 - you said had same prefix. is last 4 a real word?
10:33 am
penquis

no...think forbid....
10:33 am
penquis

or prohibit...
10:33 am
penquis

that is the definition for the whole word...
10:33 am
hokie carla

ok, will have to let that percolate too
10:34 am
72 Temple Owl

i have forbid
10:34 am
72 Temple Owl

i think. more like accuse of a crime, formally charge
10:35 am
hokie carla

well, that helped me with the ending, thx
10:35 am
penquis

no, that is a different word, TO....
10:35 am

5:48 pm
hurshy

it's so funny how i cannot not take it as shouting even when i know
5:51 pm
ChampFit

To me, caps are used for emphasis. So if you're using them for a whole sentence...seems like shouting. To me.
5:52 pm
hurshy

but it also makes sense that someone might find it helpful for their vision
5:52 pm
penquis

it does, but sometimes, if eyesight is an issue, it makes sense to use caps...
5:54 pm
hurshy

my wanderoos are having no luck finding a second ni6

Good evening, Babble friends. :) Been a tough day for one of our labradors. He tore all the tendons in the lower part of his left leg, and was operated on today. He is currently crated to restrict his movement post-op and has a bunch of good drugs on board, but he still cries in his sleep. Poor puppy. Poor mummy and daddy, was a $4,600.00 touch at the vet. :(
7:50 pm
penquis

whoa!...sorry about your dog, crossy....
7:51 pm
Kamanjah

Sorry to hear that, crossie. I hope he handles his recovery time ok. It's so hard to restrict a dog's movement.
7:51 pm
penquis

i am down to one word....can't find en 6/21...it's either the first or second one....
7:52 pm
penquis

found it...i am done...
7:53 pm
Kamanjah

Congrats pen! This is a tough one for me.
7:53 pm
crosshair

They did a T.P.L.O procedure that bypasses the need for tendons in that leg. He may have a bit of a limp afterwards, but the leg will be stable and will bear his weight with no issues.
7:53 pm
crosshair

Yaa for pen!
7:53 pm
penquis

i remember my brother's dog had to be treated by a neurologist....it was also pricey....
7:53 pm
penquis

ty, crossy....
7:54 pm
penquis

well it's great that his outlook is good...
7:55 pm
crosshair

He is only seven, so this will save him a lot of issues down the road.
7:56 pm
penquis

i bet....still some good years left...
7:57 pm
crosshair

The other leg will also need doing down the road.
7:58 pm
penquis

are leg problems typical with labs?...
7:58 pm
crosshair

Brings back memories; the money flowing out made it feel like we had kids in the house again. :)
7:58 pm
penquis

lol...
7:59 pm
crosshair

They can be. They quite ofen have issues in their hind ends--especially the big males.
7:59 pm
crosshair

Our boy weighs 85 pounds, wheras the girl is only 60 pounds.
8:00 pm
penquis

quite a difference...
8:01 pm
penquis

well i am heading out...goodnight all....
8:01 pm
crosshair

Indded, but even at 85 pounds our boy still falls within the weight parameters the vets uses. He is just large for a chocolate lab.
8:01 pm
crosshair

Goodnight, Pen.
8:04 pm

@ crosshair, sending healing thoughts to your fur baby.
