Test your vocabulary, try to climb up to level 50 (hard!!!) -- and the site will donate 10 grains of rice to the hungry for each word you get right. FreeRice |

I feel dumb. But it least it doesn't take any rice away when I go back down a level 
When I started I thought "this is hard?" Pretty soon I was saying "this IS hard!" LOL |

I made it to level 50, but backed down from there pretty quickly when I kept answering questions.

I got up to 46, but then started falling and couldn't get back up!
810 grains of rice donated (on this last attempt). |

I'm posting now because I'm sure I'll do horribly, but I'm willing to feel stupid for rice for the hungry. |

Wow! I amazed myself. I got to 270 and quit while I was ahead. I guessed on MANY, but I only got 2 wrong. Good thing they didn't want me to spell anything!! |

I love this! So, you can keep going as long as you'd like? I got up to 1030 grains of rice. I'm going to email the site to friends, so thanks for showing us that, Emma. |

I kept bouncing back and forth between 46 and 42. I finally had to tear myself away. Wow, what a time suck!
Thanks for the link. It was an enjoyable time suck.

This was fun! I felt good if I stayed a 40 for a few minutes. I need to start
putting prestidigitation into more of my conversations.

It wasn't hard to get into the 40's, but after that things would go awry.
By the time I got to 50 for the second time I was up to about 1200.
But it was fun challenging myself and learning a few new words while feeding the needy |

Fun...as Frazz said, it was great to learn and do a bit of mind bending while feeding the needy!!!

What a cool site! I had a lot of rice, but still didn't see level 50!

I never got past 46, and I had 2080 grains of rice. This is just adictive; I think I did it for 30 minutes straight.
