    This is kinda fun and addictive and apparently you're helping to give rice to feed the hungry.

    hmm... haven't read about the donating thing, but I stopped at a vocab level of 38, and 780 grains of rice.

    Will probably do it again though. There were some great words in there that I'd forgotten I knew - I just HAVE to use them in conversation later :)

    I'm currently at 42 and 800 grains of rice, but I must admit I've had to look up 3 words and what they mean.:oops:

    I was 38 for 850 when i quit. And i'm sure they got some of them wrong as sometimes none of the words listed matched what i thought the given word meant!

    It's hard. 48 for 1180 grains, AND NO PEEKING at dictionaries. :eek:

    I'll quit while I'm ahead. And I'll forget the site so I don't spend too long at it.

    EDIT: 49 for 2200 grains (after falling back to 45)
