Some of their definitions are a bit...odd... They'll say "X means Y" when really "X" is one type of "Y". 😔 (Made up example would be "tuxedo means suit"...well sort of, but not really....)

I think I made it up to 2100 grains (highest level = 48 or something like that) but knowing that a lot of the definitions are a bit off takes a lot of the fun out of it.

Just wanted to point out, yes the dude does donate the rice, but he's made a fortune off the advertising on the site.

  1. I'd get a ton right, and then a ton wrong... and then more right.

i got level 42 ... need to listen in class..

the money they get from the advertising is wht is used to buy the rice.
n the game adjusts to ur level. if u get a wrong one, it'll go 1 level down. if u get 3 rights, u'll go 1 level up. u can read the stuff in the faq.

o, n there are 50 levels in all (very rare for ppl to go up to 48)

Can't be that rare, I did it twice yesterday. 😕

A fair number of the words you can make a good guess at by looking at the parts of the word, so I got quite a few right even though I never remembered seeing that word before.

Quote from vinceasuma

I think there should be a penalty as well. Like...if you get too many wrong answers they kill a puppy or something. Then the game will be more interesting.

I really like the way you think. 😀

If there were a penalty, then I wouldn't be playing it. Hurting puppies is bad. (Though in virtual reality, I woudn't care at all; I'd laugh.)
