Oh my. I thought I had a good vocabulary. I am going to have to eat those words.
What a wild idea.
Anyway, I'm curious to see how other people do on this (I'm having to suppress memories of the GRE here, but this was never the worst part of that).
I'm edging slowly towards 50, but haven't got beyond that as yet. Procrastination with a worthy outcome! This is subversive stuff...
FS -- I pooped out at 39.
Thanks for playing, FS and Hyygeia. I never got higher than 44 or 45 myself.
Some fairly smart people visit this blog; I hope they'll feel the adrenalin rush of intellectual competition course through their synapses. Or something. Anyway, I hope they'll want to feed some hungry people even if they cain't run wi' us Big Dawgs.
The good news: I recalled a word I had to look up earlier this semester. Also, after repeatedly tottering between 27-30 I finally made it to 35. The "bad" news: I donated a LOT of rice!
Thanks for the link.
I saw this some time ago and spent way too much time clicking away, with clicks interspersed with occasional curse words when I missed something.
Cheers.
Addictive! But I quit at 2000 grains of rice.
Did make it up to level 50, though.
