I managed to get up to Level 48 once. I hovered around Level 42.

I hit 50 a few times but I was mostly around 45-46.

Fun game!

50 is really hard to stay at. I've made it a couple of times but like you, I tend to hover in the mid-forty range. It's a really addictive game though.

I'll make you all feel really smart.

I never got passed 37. I had never even heard many of those words.

Funny how so many people say I am articulate and yet, I have limited vocabulary skills.

In writing or speaking, it's never about how many words you know. It's what you do with the words you've got.

I didn't realize it had no end! So I got sloppy and clicked on some wrong answers by accident, about three or four times. It could happen!

I got up to 49 at one point, but quit at 47 with 3600 grains of rice. My shoulder hurts now, but not as much as if I had planted and harvested the rice myself...

At some point, they told me I was done.

I think I earned too much rice trying to move up levels.

I don't know if I coulda kept going much longer. I was guessing on a bunch of them at first, then I was getting repeats, so I thought it was endless.

I seem to stick at around 45. A lot of the words seem intuitive, so that includes some (many) lucky guesses.

t.

Got up to 50 for a couple of words. Comes from doing crossword puzzles for so long. I'd bet wintergreen would top us all, with his knowledge of Latin word roots.

I just gave it a try. I reached 49, then quit at 2000 grains because I was playing for charity.

LOL!

Or, "I quit at 2000 grains because, you know, Meredith, that is a LOT of rice."

I love this site.

A co-worker sent it to me last week. The best I've done is 50 but is is tough to maintain it.

As gs said, knowing Latin roots helps. I bet wintergreen could cure world hunger!
