Difficulty score = 19. I probably wouldn't have needed the little green numbers, but I missed an obvious missing digit. Requires some basic analysis.

3:54 pm
hurshy

i don't like the idea of you giving up whenever it's a bit challenging
3:59 pm
hurshy

hmm... perhaps tor left work
4:03 pm
torgone

Friggin work . . .
4:03 pm
hurshy

4:04 pm
torgone

So yeah, I'm a bit stuck and reluctant to mark up the grid . .
4:04 pm
hurshy

i think i'm about to mark myself. so let's mark together
4:05 pm
torgone

I've filled in 9 spaces ..
4:05 pm

4:05 pm
hurshy

4:06 pm
skizzybiz

i got lucky and noticed them almost right away
4:06 pm
hurshy

of course it is DOable without marks, but i'm feeling lazy today.
4:06 pm
skizzybiz

:)
4:07 pm
torgone

Marking is extra work to me . .I'd rather stare at it for a while till I see something pop out at me . .
4:07 pm
hurshy

i find that while marking, i bump up against whatever it is i should have seen in the first place
4:08 pm
hurshy

at least i'm getting some finger exercise in the meantime :)
4:08 pm
skizzybiz

wow, that one went crazy fast once i found those pairs

4:16 pm
skizzybiz

4:16 pm
hurshy

4:16 pm
skizzybiz

4:17 pm
skizzybiz

<--- easily addicted
4:17 pm
hurshy

but weren't they the most glorious hours of your life?
4:18 pm
skizzybiz

i would play more weboggle, except their server is always flaky. this dr_god guy is one of the best designers i've seen
4:18 pm
hurshy

if you weboggle, put team babble as your name and you may pick up some help :)
4:18 pm
skizzybiz

heh
4:19 pm
skizzybiz

considering i never manage to find any words that no one else has gotten, i doubt i would make much of a contribution
4:19 pm
hurshy

it's a standing invitation i put up, so when babblers play they can play together
4:19 pm
hurshy

it doesn't matter, skizzy - if you find even one word that no one else on your TEAM finds, you make a contribution.
4:20 pm
skizzybiz

ok, back to work for me
4:20 pm
hurshy

4:21 pm
hurshy

4:21 pm
hurshy

the first column, i found helpful.
4:24 pm
torgone

Ok I greened the first column, and I'm still just as dumb ..
4:28 pm
torgone

The first column stinks .. I hate the first column ..
4:30 pm
BAD

Don't feel bad. Struggling here too.
4:35 pm
fnurt

I'm not sure what I was supposed to look for in the first column... but I made some progress by looking at the relationship between the box in the far upper-left and some other boxes. Done now!
4:36 pm
torgone

Aha! The middle column . .
4:46 pm
torgone

Crap ..
4:52 pm
