You should be proud! Congratulations! I seem to have stalled in my progress. I must revisit your site.

Lol! No need to apologize at all. I am pretty sure that I know who you are and will feel honoured to be within 100 points of your average score. :)
I will never beat you here (my typing speed is my greatest limitation - about 65wpm), but I suspect that I might just give you a good run for your money in a dictionary on regular game of Prolific. I think that you might be the only person that I have played in Prolific that I have yet to beat (admittedly, when our paths last crossed I had only been playing for a few months).
I'm sure you'd spank me :)
I don't frequent word games anymore - no passion for it to be honest. Tonight is a victim of the flu (fingers crossed that it's not H1N1!).
My vocab is terrible!

Hope that you feel better soon (if only because I will then have the chance to top the average score leaderboard! ;)).

Wow midnight congrats!
Your average words per game is about the same as my record lol.
Are you sure you are only 65WPM? I am around 90ish but I make some errors but still... I only get 100 max lol

Thanks! :)
My highest number of words in a game is 148 (I can type marginally faster when I am playing Boggle as, working with anagram sets, my fingers don't have to move around so much). My high average comes more from consistency and knowledge of many unusual words than from speed. While speed gives a definite advantage, most speedy players will waste time typing non-words or common words.

Haha.
I can associate with your point very well. Not only do some of the words I type not count(not that many), but sometimes I forget to hit the enter key.
:mad: This leads to problems...
