is babble broken, fran?

i think so, i sent an email to dr_g

very interesting

the last time it did this was because he ran out of pre-generated grids.

how does one run out?

that's what we all wondered. :-)

I mean, it's not like flip doesn't happen every night.

this looks a little different from last time, it might be a different problem.

still interesting, none the less

yes.

go!

Hey Fran

I have no idea either why it's broken - but it is ;-)

hi lickety!

Did you email him Fran?

yes, i did

gave him the error messages

what time is it for him?

after midnight for sure, he probably won't fix it until morning

computers are so tempermental, aren't they lickety?

yay! done

and babble is back up!

done...finally! no greens

This was easier the second time around. Back to bed.

awake. bleah.

go on today's

here goes nothing...

go

done

hi, folks

done, with greens :(

Good morning all warriors of the Big Fella

start

go

done... no greens, but a lucky guess half way through brought this one together

oh hey brittle

morning, pappa

done. auto g+r. one bad guess. one good guess.

14 filled easily, then nothing...

Back and at it again... stuck at 14 and went green now staring at numbers and scratching my head

That sounds only too familiar...

that was weird...

I was trying a guess and entering numbers when it spontaneously reloaded to my saved checkpoint

great...i have one more to filll til 14 and then i look forward to staring blankly...

at least you had it saved :)

Staring blankly is fun. I like the practice so I can be really good at it during meetings.

Been staring on and off at the same point, 14 done and othervise stuck

lol

allright...coming back to this later...

I even started over using greens to see if I made a mistake; back to the same spot....

re-trying my guess...

And that guess would be incorrect.

One of my favorite lines from some cartoon: "Sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits"

heh

joining the staring contest...

"Everyone sat around staring. Got really boring." Name the movie and the famous voice speaking it.

No googling!

Google didn't know.....

Probably because I miffed the quote a bit.

Much guessing. Auto g+r. But it's done.

Quote hint: The speaker is a seagull.

JLS?

Nope... he was speaking to Ariel.

TLM?

Correct. And the actor?

Maurice LaMarche

No idea without google

First day in the elite, and boy does it feel good!

scuttlebutt

Coulda tried IMDB... anyway, it was Buddy Hackett. Now I have to practice my staring skills. Got a meeting. Laters!

Gratz on the Elite hax!

Thanks :-)

done- 5 points baby! BWA HA!

hello everybody

Hello yul. I've reached the staring blankly stage.

me too

and not too many filled in :(

The first 14 go quickly.

yes. I have to green

That was nasty. I had to call Prof. Laurence Littlewinkle for advice. He suggested staring blankly works for him...

Now what'll we do?

Hmmmmmm...

Hmmmmmm?

a triple!

Still staring blankly, doesn't seem to work for me.

you are right. there is no triple there.

go

pause

Maybe Prof. Littlewinkle is on to something. Staring blankly has gotten me another 8. Back to staring blankly.

play on

Yup, staring blankly did the trick.

go *gulp*

Nothing to fear sandbox. Try the Zen of Sudoku, just stare blankly.

Difficulty score 56.

yes blank here too

am now trying the blank stare approach

have to guess. I know the answer allready

Stare at the 2s.

i feel like i am looking at one of those 3-d pictures and i am waiting for the image to pop out

guessed

have a nice day everybody

bye yul

done.. had to guess.. not enough time to spend pondering.. but it is a good poser

done. guesses.

only took most of the day - finally guessed and got it

hi

Yes! At last took a couple of out n out guesses tho.

evening all

hello aki

how are you this evening?

good. u?

I'm good thanks

I think i have an account on there, but not played for ages

:) i have one.

yeah i have one too, took me a couple of attepmts to get my login right though, lol

im going to babble! bye bye!

kk, cya

start

done at last

gl abmoraz

start

restart

Done, got stuck then stared at the 2s!

*sigh* nowhere to go but guess :(

dr who posts the difficulty score each day...does anyone know what is the highest difficulty possible, or the highest difficulty level he's ever posted?

i'm having a hard time putting his numbers into perspective when i don't know where that cap is :)

i know what you mean, katmama, i've always wondered that myself

well ... i sort of guessed but sort of didn't, i don't know my advanced techniques well enough to say i didn't ;) but anyway i'm done, yay!

needed greens

needed greens and a guess

greens and a very lucky guess

hi Dorens

go 8/30/2007

finally

took 7 tries

lots of green and guessing
