I LOL'd at this. It was good logic though.

That kind of surgery can be done over the weekend!

Time to try another random phone entry while exhausted from moving today & hanging with my crazy 3 year old. What could go wrong?

I wonder if I missed the correct # of minutes or not. Will depend on how fast my phone is I guess. Of course, I totally made up a 6 letter word so that could be a problem, too.

I did this one standing on my head, blindfolded, while reciting the alphabet backwards. Fingers crossed!

I haven't started scoring this yet, but I'd guess a 0 minute entry wins this one.

Congrats to RAORoman.

True North messed up the all 0 minute podium by tying for third.

I'm impressed how many people got 6 of the 8 possible words.

I figured there would be more 0 minute submissions than there were considering a blank submission would get you 15 points, which is more than the word value.

Took way too long to find arcana. Derp. Also guess I need to start trying to time when I open the PM.

Yah, bad combo of phone costing me 0 minute entry plus being too tired to think. Will have to redeem myself tomorrow.

I use T-Clock on my computer to synchronize my clock and display the seconds. I haven't been using it for this game obviously, but I use it for WW.

I'm sure I submitted more than 6 words in that round so I must have had some incorrects....

Thanks for pointing that out. I added a row to get some more data for possible future use and didn't realize that it messed up those columns. Scores are the same, but Incorrect Word Penalty and Incorrect Word columns were displayed with the wrong data.
