I've made it to Level 50 a couple of times. That degree in Classics is finally paying off... in grains of rice!

I'm stopping at 1000 and level 40, but passing this on to my cousins in college. Their vocab skills could use some work

Really enjoyed this and did well - despite a few guesses
(Did you know dhole is a wild dog?)
Gonna pass this on to a few tautological friends at work so they can add to their vast yet repetitive vocabs...
I lost it at level 43 with "ecchymosis"

I'm going for quantity not quality. I've been as high as level 50 but mostly hover around 39-42. I was at 1850 grains of rice. Went to another screen and .... back to zero.

Man, that is addictive! I hope it's for real. But even if it isn't, no harm done I guess. I'm hovering around 47-48, 1000 grains so far.

Thom told me about it yesterday. I keep one browser window open to it and play off and on all day. When I get to 5,000 grains I close the window.

it's the neoteric way to fundraise
Anyone else find it ironic that the free ad at the bottom is for Googles "10 fat burning rules - loose 9 lbs in 10 days with these 10 easy rules of diet and fat loss."
but I guess the people getting the rice are glad this is here.
