I like it alot - sometimes the sentences are better than the words. This will encourage all of us with fragile egos
wordmeister - 2006-12-01: 13:54:00
Check out the revised player standing -- chris and Jabberwocky are neck and neck. This could get vicious! Oh wait... They removed the negative voting. Dang!
