done

you beat me tonight - I got stuck early on for some reason

grrr

took WAY to long for an easy - though it wasn't really tricky in any way

Hello all,
It does look easy.

oh just rub it in :)

Sorry Orb,
I'm just starting it now. I'm sure I'll stumble into the pitfalls shortly. I always do. 8-)

Shouldn't be hard - it just might take a bit longer than normal. Or maybe it's just me. I guess I should take that as a sign to get some sleep. See you all tomorrow at midnight...

Good night Orb.
I'm still plugging away for a while.

Well, it did take me a while. Not terribly difficult, but probably easier after a night's sleep instead of before.

12 minutes! now back to the archives...

morning

mORNING

oops.... capslock moment there! The rankings for Who's Hot are not accurate, I've completed every game this 2 week but am missing a point! It's only got it right once up to now!

why is it an easy one when it's a bank hol and we have more time?

morning all

Really easy.

wow, first ranking point won ! :)

Hi all

Ginger: I think it takes a while to update after you finish a game

That was an easy one

Yay, just finished May :)

hi all

drats, screwed it up ;-)

better

easies are taking over iron sudoku!!! :0

heya scribble

hey angel!

how was your weekend?

it was good....uneventful, but good. :) yours?

that a sign from Dr_God to relax on Memorial day : )

oops 'that's..."

good point, EB :)

did anyone go out of town for memorial day?

nope...you??

nope. couldn't...

me neither...

i went to the movies on friday with my friend Anna. We saw Over the Hedge...

was it funny?

hello everybody

hello yul. :)

hi yul...

scribble' do you change your icon every day? :)

yes, it was hilarious

hi easternblue, love your pic

thanks yul...

yep. i found a ton of scribble icons....my favorite is the "evil scribble of doom". i havent changed it today yet...but i will. :)

:)

cool

scribble - you should try drawing your own in paintbrush : )

i've done that too, EB, but they are all on my mom's computer. i'll have to put them on a floppy and transfer them over. :)

ok i changed it! :)

I love drawing my own too...

a scribble is about all i can draw on paintbrush. everything else doesnt look like what it was supposed to. :)

:))

it does take practice....of course, I'm a wee bit older than you - so I've had more time to practice : )

lol

yul - it's not nice laugh at your elders...

(unless you're not around scribble's age...) LOL!!

i bet i am old enough to do so ;)

than laugh away!!

in 10 years im gonna laugh at all of you!!! muahahaha

Of course they'll all be 10 yrs older too... ;)

scribble dear, you'll still be younger than me...muahahaha back at ya!!

snap! hmmm...

you can laugh at me at any time. it's good for health

thanks yul :)

any requests for a pix today?? I haven't changed my icon in awhile...

how bout we dont laugh AT each other, but laugh WITH each other?

scribble - you are wise for your age ; )

i am a wise, old scribble! :)

EB, for your icon, find something for springtime, like a flower or butterfly!

brb....drawing now...

I've changed...

it's not as striking as pencil

ah well... : )

aww...good job, EB!! you have WAY more talent than me. :)

I like to doodle...

scribble, your scribble is exellent

ty yul, but that isnt my scribble. :) but i'll make one later! :)

i love the pencil icon. i will miss it :(

yul...it may make it's way back : )

hmm...im gonna make a scribble. give me some colors, guys!

i would be glad. it one of the iconic ones :)

blue...purple...

orange

yul - in babble, I change mine almost every day : )

(when I play at least...)

blue, purple, and orange....that will be interesting!!

hi MrP

i don't play babble. english is not my first language and i am also not atall familia with an american version of it.

howdy

yul, whats your first language?

yul - English is my first language, but there are so many words in babble I've never heard or used before : )

i tryed thougt. it was fun

it is impossible to stop when you know that there are more words lerking somewere. made my had heart after 2 hrs stearing :(

snap...you cant tell the colors...oh well i tried.

that's where the helpful lists & other babbler's help with their brilliant clues 8 D

scribble - I like it!

tahnks :)

oops...thanks!

you have to use contrast in shapes and colours

it looked better, but when i converted it to .JPEG it made it blurry.

yul-how do you use contrast?

cotrast between thin and thick, purple and orange

so make purple a thin line, and make orange a thick line?

experiment

ok i'll play around for a little while. thanks! :)

blothes and thin lines also good

hey scribble, this is twinkie. how did you do on that expert puzzle?

i finished it!!!

good for you!! :D

how much guessing did it take?

did you?

haven't finished it. put it aside and worked on the other expert i had left to do in the archives, which i finished! but haven't finished the one we started.

twinkie - was that the march 28th puzzle - that one was a beast (I just did it the other day.....)

yes! that one! it's EVILLLL!

not very much actually...i guessed the number in the topmost left cell. (like A1) and it went pretty well after that.

it's weird how the puzzles can go easier or harder, depending on how you mark them. they never go exactly the same way for everyone.

finished and again no greens needed. can't waite to try expert without greens. good luck and good bye everybody

bye yul....

c-ya yul and thanks for the help :)

bye all....see you later!!

scribble, you still here?

IM HERE

sorry bout the caps.

hey scribbledy dibbledy :)

hey hurshy!! :)

how's the gnioom woc?

woi si gniod enif!!

whoops...*woc*

:)

so what are you doing with yourself for the summer?

I must be missing some key here, it's supposed to be easy but I've hit a brick wall...

nothing, really....im pretty bored. gonna read alot, and have some friends come over. and we're going to spork scribbled at the end of June! :)

what does spork mean other than spoon/fork?

yeah for an easy this one is going a little slow.

were gonna stick sporks in his yard, and other harmless pranks, like stick a sign in his yard that says "YOUVE BEEN SPORKED"

And as soon as I complain, suddenly I knock down like 8 numbers

lol

all i did all summer when i was your age was read and swim

Just goes to show you that the universe responds to whining

i would swim, but we dont have a pool this year, so were gonna go to the beach in July. im really excited about that, cuz ive never been.

never been to the beach? wow.

i know, right? :P

well you will love it :)

ah, there. that really took longer than it should have.

congrats hursh! have you finished babble?

yup

i havent been over there yet....probly will in a minute.

not a bad grid today

good...i was gettin frustrated when they had 250+ words.

i think it was 148 today

alrighty that sounds good!

i'm going to go to lunch now scribbledy - see you later :)

bye again hurshy ;)

bye :)

have a nice lunch hursh! bye! :)

gooood morning everyone

hey moedog! :)

hi, scrib

hmmm... thought this one was supposed to be easy??

done :)

congrats, ata! :)

awright ata!

its not *too* bad ... just keep plugging away and it falls into place eventually!

got it!

Good job, people

had to restart one, then found a "had-to-be" 2 in the upper left - everything fell down after that

yay moe!

that sounds familiar :)

heh

and now, time to wash my face and head out to face the day - at noon! :))

...grr.

snap! i finally finished all the archived puzzles :D :D

Congrats!

still working on that E7? :)

i never used to have to mark the easy's ... my mind must be slipping

Hi all

Bye all

go

oy.

see, I will never have a lawn when I get a house

because it requires upkeep

why?

oh

in planting grass, and then cutting the grass, and then planting plants, and killing other plants

moving things here, there, to and fro

and in the end it just gives you a shallow little bit of pride in the work you ddi

and then you realize that the time can be spent in vastly better ways

like playing sudoku ;)

and youre talking about lawns b/c.....?

I just spent about, oh, say, an hour and a half working on a small section of our lawn

hehe good point sneeu :)

digging up grass, and whatnot

does it look better?

It's just the back lawn

So it doesn't really matter; we're the only ones to see it

and in my opinion no, no it doesn't

ah, cynicism, how I love thee

let me count the ways:

eh, forget it

contestant: do you have kids?

not worth it, huh contestant? ;)

No, I'm still in high school

Although that's not a disqualifier these days.

;)

Went to the clothes store this morning and they have "World's Greatest Dad" t-shirts in kids sizes

haha

hmmm....i never did understand that....why someone would clean something or decorate a room when noone else will see it or care....oh well

That's my theory, and also why careers in interior design and such are blocked off for me.

i mean it would be different if you had alot of guests or important people visiting...

but other than that...."?"

ah, to hell with this, I'm getting nowhere

THIS IS NO WAY AN EASY PUZZLE!

iM SO STUCK

yeah, better go back to the lawn, contestant ;)

i'm having trouble with it too - but i believe my slowness is direct result of wedding reception last night - somthing about a bar, toasting, shots, who knows

all this work and it will only be worth one point :)

something about helen dancing on a table? who knows. :)

oh noooo, & here i thought i just dreamed that part, lol

the videotape doesn't lie, helen

oh noooooooooooo again, yes, there was a videotape guy, lol, LOL - yikes it's all coming back now!

actually, once i got past the logjam in my brain - this one did turn out to be pretty easy :)

later guys, off to steal babble clues

Hi all

hi grace

How are you today

doing well. i've been on vacation so i have to play catchup

Oh sometimes I have to do that as well

how have you been?

Me?

yep

Fine I am having a wonderful day

good mine has been pretty good too

Except for the fact that I am feeling really dumb because I am having difficulties with an easy sudoku

hello all.

Hi Blueskies

hi grace. no need to feel dumb..it's a case of the mondays! something was bound to catch up to you if everything else went smoothly today! lol

Ya good point there

Hey I'm doing a bit better now I finally got a whole box filled

Three boxes now

I mean cheering

Good bye all

btwrt??

hi

...

Hi Laura ...I was afk

hello yall

how do I restart the game

start over button at the bottom of the puzzle

i dont' have one but thanks

??? there should be one there....well sorry i gotta go

hi again. caffeinatedelf, do you have a 'start over' button?

yah i do

yeha, are you using firefox?

safary, but it crashes if i go to ranking page or trying to refresh the next day. i don't have 'restart' button after the last mail out :( can't be a pro cos my system administrator says that everything should be free on the net.

I don't have those problems with Safari but I am pro

do you have a restat button, morgwaine?

Yes...a start over at the bottom of the puzzle

Maybe you need to update...new version of Java?

i hope to get tis button back for non pro people

i getting a mac pro soon and hope that my trouble will be over :)

grin

just need to wait a bit till i am sure that there are no bugs in the shiny world of macs pro

nod....I will replace my ibook laptop instead of reapairing it if something breaks. Its so slow...500mgh

i have a cube and so many conflicting softs that i stopped doing anything worth mentioning :(

those are cool looking I think. Have you tried wiping the hard drive and reinstalling everything?

I desided to buy intel mac anyway. my cube is only G3 and i can not use lots of cool programs with it

nod

anyway, good night everybody

night

ugh had to start over on March 12... :S

I gave up on March 20th. Maybe tomorrow

My brain has gone to sleep. Bye everyone

c-ya morgwaine...hope your brain wakes up! :)

hello

hello banana

goodbye

Night, Scribble :)

hehe, too early, it's before the flip still. Morning all!
