    Can I get a third chance? In that first game I accidently left the game open, and didnt score.

    I have a sneaking suspicion that the $15 is going to remain unclaimed ;) Can't be too annoyed though, the game is fantastic ^_^

    Haha, the competition is fair!

    1 person will definitely win the $10 for writing the review, and the bonus $15 is purely due to how well you perform.

    I'm not going to lie, after playing and testing the game for roughly 12 months my standard is pretty high - but i have been beaten quite a few times so it's definitely possible. :)

    Before challenging me to a game make sure you're decent in the numbers rounds and the final anagram round. It's in these rounds i tend to slip up.


    On a side note, if you're interested in how we made the game, i posted a thread about the whole process on here about a month ago - mainly to help people not make the same mistakes we did. Hopefully anyone thinking about creating a game should find it useful: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=171794

    Hey I think I found a rather important glitch.
    I was playing some sp to practice and I had to do something so I closed the app in the middle of a round. When I came back the timer was still at the point I left it. This could cause cheating if players wrote down the letters and closed the app. I suggest making it so the timer keeps going, or, if that's not possible, making it do the round is automatically lost. If you do the latter I suggest telling players in the tutorial that pressing the home button will be forfeiting the round.

    This game is really awesome :)
    Btw, how do I get my rank up? When I finish an online round it says I could've gotten x-amount of stars, but how do I get them?

    Edit: also can I continue to play you even after 2 tries? I started my games with you prematurely, but I'd like to see if I could eventually beat you :D

    Haha, it's always worth a try. Quite a few people have beaten me already, just not from this contest! Thanks for your kind words :)

    I'll give it a go:
    UK App Store: Un1queN1ckname
    WIT: mr_bez

    (Not sure the voucher will work with UK App Store - if I win and can't redeem it, I'll happily donate it to the recipient of the $10 voucher!)

    Never mind - it's looking increasingly unlikely!

    Yep, that was brutal. I just can't type that fast on my iPhone! 38 words in 60 seconds?

    You had me scared for a while there. It was only the last 2 rounds where I pulled away. Have another try!

    Yep, I'm playing on my iPhone too.

    Hi guys,

    Sorry for the delay. We've been so busy with the game these last few days, we totally forgot about this.

    Anyway, unfortunately nobody beat me and so the bonus $15 will stay in our pockets. Rasta Dezz gave it a good go but sadly fell short by a measly 2 points!

    As for the $10 gift card, i'll do that now - RNG style.
