Play a game, and people get fed.

The advertisers pay for the food.

On your end, it's that simple.

Oh, and please pass the link along to someone...

[Kit Sober]

Thanks so much. Very cool. I did pass to some friends.

[Tom Strange]

OK, I'll admit it.. I missed and finished at 1100.

(if we make this a contest, more grains of rice will be donated).

Come on! Beat me!

(not that way Shellon!)

How cool! I got over 1,000 grains. I don't want to mess with it too much at work - but it's fun. =) I think there is something similar for dogs and cats - only it's with bits of dog/cat food instead. I wish I could remember the link.

I'm at 780 with a level of 40 ... does it let you go forever? Many words I don't know ...

[tonto]

I hit 3,000 with a level of 35. I would never think to use most of these words but I was surprised how many were familiar.

Nero, if you find the pet-feeding link, let us know.

[Belle]

Yeah, I'd love the pet feeding one, too. :)

I got to 1000 with a level of 40, but have to get back to work, too.

What was your level at 1100, Strange One? Did you make it to 1100 before you missed your first word? :blink:

[Nero]

I found it and posted the link. I forgot that it was a click-a-day thing for .6 cups of food. It's been a while since I've seen it since I don't visit the old cat forum anymore.

It would be neat if they had something like this though - half a piece of dog food for every correct word? How neat!

I ran out of time at 1120 grains. Final level 42. best level 47.

I got over 4000 points - best level 42... it's addicting.

[Nero]

Bump.

[Nottawayfer]

That game gave me polydipsia. Who's turn is it to muddle the Mojitos??

[GeorgeStGeorge]

2000 grains this time. Finished at level 46, highest 48.

LOL strange boy

I hadn't opened this thread 'til tonight, figured it was another holiday thing. Glad I did now!

Beat you, uh huh and that way even!

[Shellon]

You have now donated

4000 grains of rice.

That was kinda fun !

I knew one day I'd be thankful for my medical terminology class

[it's me tcat]

This is a cool site. And as I have no life I donated 17000 grains of rice.

[now I see]

30,000 grains equal a pound.

[Nero]

I can't seem to get too far past 2,000 grains before my interest goes elsewhere. Ah well, it's a nice little exercise.

[WordWolf]

Clicking this to the top....

Here is an animal feeding site: http://www.freekibble.com/

[Kit Sober]

Still works. Brains always need a little exercise and this is a wholesome one.
