artr

Created by: artr

Pronunciation: ridənditē

Sentence: The pain sent Judy screaming to the hospital. The sound at first sounded like CARS but soon escalated to the roar of B-52s. It felt like her ear canal was full of BEATLES. The doctor diagnosed her with a case of redunditty. Though she didn*t fear MEGADEATH she thought she might go DEF LEPPARD so she sought THE CURE. The surgeon eased her pain with a LOVING SPOONFUL. She was so happy she gave the doc a KISS.

Etymology: redundancy (the state of being no longer needed or useful) + ditty (a short simple song)

That "Join" button looks exactly like the "Create" button. There should be some obvious indicator that you're not clicking on the same thing you click on every day. The page looks nearly identical, and I know I'm not the first person to accidentally join a group.

Hey ErWenn, Yes, I think you're right. I have removed the "join group" button. Players are now required to create a unique word before it can be saved. (Plus, as an added bonus, I have taken your name off the creators list for allwise's word, which you "accidentally" joined. Now you can go ahead and create your own word for the day.) Thanks ~ James
