Verbotomy, can you explan the ranking scores. I am mystified Dan boaz
Hey danbaoz, The ranking pages show the final player scores for each week. (Players collect points for each word they create, and the get points for each vote they cast.) Currently this list does not show live data, but it has been updated as of Wednesday December 20th. (I am working on this, so we should be able to show live results soon...) By the way, if you check the stats, you will see the you are doing very well this week --- you're in second place, just behind Darthwader! Good luck for the rest of the week! ~ James
