1:14 am

mythrl

letters should be able to wrap around the edges...eg quote should be a valid word

2:13 am

nothing

Am I doomed to fourth place?

Also, mythrl, I was thinking about that yesterday (actually, I tried a few wraparounds, just to check). It would make for an interesting variation.

4:30 am

poopster

I can bet you the low-thousands won't be shit to what the winners come up with . . .

4:31 am

annie

I think yr bluffing, fightclub. What do you got that I don't got, huh?

4:34 am

poopster

4:35 am

cocovan

Dr God - with ref to yesterday's "There are certain people who go for the trial and error method" remark, I will put my hand up and admit that I must be one of the worst!

Sometimes when you look at the grid for long enough, you can see words that aren't even there! ;)

5:26 am

cocovan

and now I'm stuck on just over 600

5:54 am

trhaynes

8:28 am

Davros

8:30 am

creeky_kenobi

theres only 15+ hours left before the puzzle closes

8:57 am

cocovan

Some of the spelling seems wrong in some of the words - I don't know if it's a difference between USA and "proper" English! ;)

9:40 am

vorbis

found the thirteen-letter word!

9:45 am

poopster

how many points is that worth?

10:51 am

vorbis

every last one

11:28 am

barcalounger

I would await independent confirmation of the alleged 13-letter word before commencing to beat one's head against a wall in frustration

11:37 am

squant

You know what would be nice? Having the score at the top and having the comments in reversed orderer so I don't have to scroll to the bottome of the page to see the stuff I want to see while I'm playing. Maybe even the post message box closer to the top. Great game. Thanks for making it.

11:41 am

barcalounger

score at the top would be nice, yes.
the Chat Log works for me, though.

11:41 am

mythrl

im sure if i should be thanking Dr_God or curing him for making this :)

11:42 am

mythrl

cursing*

11:47 am

Dr_God

You can thank me in a curse.

11:49 am

Dr_God

squant-

A few others have suggested putting the score at the top. I may do that. But the chat will probably stay the way it is. Having the log read bottom to top would be odd.

I think adding a "jump to the bottom" link at the top of the log should solve the problem.

11:54 am

squant

Cool. Thanks again for ruining my life and may you be rewarded by chocolate filled boils all over your thumbs.

11:55 am

Dr_God

New Feature Alert:

I just added a "Jump Down" link to the top of the chat log. I hope that helps.

11:56 am

barcalounger

squant, at least you get paid to Babble.

11:59 am

mythrl

the jump down link isnt working for me

12:01 pm

pigasus

12:34 pm

2:52 pm

flaunted

2:55 pm

flaunted

ok nm about yesturdays winner...hehe but a list of all the words from previous puzzles would be nice.

3:23 pm

Dr_God

I'm hoping to add this feature soon.

4:13 pm

spork65

Quone: Medical term. When a patient gets difficult you have to quone them.

4:25 pm

The Big Smooth

can you put naked women in the puzzle?

4:29 pm

Antwon

Dude, most of my random-ass guesses (e.g., 'delanocarn') don't even hit thirteen letters.

9:35 pm

lodown

there is no 13 letter word.

9:38 pm

tommyslax

only zuul

9:43 pm

tommyslax

i think there's more spanish words than english ones here.

10:54 pm

strumpfm

spork65 has it right. to quone something. i was so disappointed when that wasn't a valid word.

11:48 pm

mythrl

can anyone verify whether there is a 13 letter word? there are still 12 minutes left
