Can't seem to get past level 37...so far donated 920 pieces of rice. Pretty neat exercise! Most of these hard words I'm just deducing what they mean...I'm doing a lot of lucky guessing...

VOCAB LEVEL: 39
YOUR BEST LEVEL: 43
You have now donated
3760 grains of rice.
Yay, I wonder how many bowls of rice that is.
These are all pretty easy if you have a fairly good vocabulary and a knowledge of a latin-based language.

I tried to put a link to this in my sig. when I first joined up but I couldn't find it-does this site have sig.'s? Also, the best I got is 41.

My best level was 40 on my first try. A couple of months ago I bought a book on root words to build my vocabulary. I'll play some more later and see if it helped.

Ah, this is fun!
Just came from there. My first try is 43/45; lots of educated guessing, and many words I was surprised to have learned from my INFJ husband who has a Shakespearian vocabulary. Can't wait to see what he scores.

best level 50 ... i think i donated about 1200+ grains of rice. i'll probably give it a go a second time when i feel more alert.

My highest level was 36. I got plently of lucky guesses though. I knew a ton of root words. I think my actual level without the guessing is probably 31 or 32. I'll keep playing and try to up my score.

Got to level 41. My previous level was 36 which I obtained based on my prior knowledge of root words, suffixes, etc. I didn't play the game since last sunday, and instead opted to actually study root words/sat words this whole week and see if I could improve my score.

Couldn't get past 47. I was amazed at how many words I knew... and slightly embarrassed at how many of them I'd picked up playing RPGs.

28/35 vocabulary
I admit I guessed a few right. A friend of my partner showed this website, Its a good cause and educational. I've been using it to pass the time when I have a minute.

There are 50 levels in all, but it is rare for people to get above level 48.

got to 50 but after 45 I began randomly guessing sometimes.
Donated about 1640 grains of rice...
Best level 40 until I grew weary.

Yeah, it's amazing how many words I pick up from doing 'geeky' things, such as playing RPG's, MTG, being on the internet all the time...

Got 30 and currently at 27. UGH. And it didn't improve my vocab at all. Couldn't remember the ones that I guessed right or got wrong ;)

42 (high) until I started missing a few, I didn't keep going as it is 3am. I want to hit 50 by the end of the week.

Haven't made it past 47 yet. That game is addictive.

I've collected 11000 grains so far(I wrote all my scores to notepad).
I've also calculated how much 1000grains is. It's 11,76 grams, not much. It's better give a buck to the local beggar than to spend hours playing this. But we CAN collect a lot together. This site is a good idea.
btw, if you want to collect more, do this: Answer the first three questions wrong, and you will start from a really low level, and it's easier to collect more rice.

You can set the computer to 'remember' your total and everything under 'options'.
Isn't that a little dishonest, though?

There are 55 levels in all, but it is rare for people to get much above level 48.
