Didn't I submit this word a long time ago? http://verbotomy.com/verbottle.php?jargonism_id=4112 - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 12:44:00

Wow. You sure did! I guess it only picks up duplicates from the day's word? Hey, you got 29 pts for it. I didn't get any :( Sorry 'bout that ErWenn. I'll try to think of something else. - purpleartichokes, 2007-07-05: 13:53:00

OK - changed. Hope no one already did this one, you can only change your word once now. - purpleartichokes, 2007-07-05: 14:24:00

What's the big deal? We don't own these things. A couple of weeks ago I used 'youthanasia' on the Monday and somebody used the same word for the Thursday puzzle of the same week. I'm 100% sure it was innocently done then and also here. - Stevenson0, 2007-07-05: 20:42:00

I wasn't actually offended that you picked the same word. Just surprised. In fact, I had to go look it up to make sure that it wasn't somebody else who came up with that word. I didn't expect you to change your word. Also, since my word was "grubsess" and yours was "grubsessed," I don't think the automatic thingy would catch it anyway. - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 21:39:00
