> Hehhehehe. :-) Actually the dictionary in Hangman consists of 18583 words and is basically the entire contents of an online dictionary minus proper names, plurals, and words under five letters. Had I tried to construct a dictionary by hand, I'm sure I would never have come up with enough so that repeat words wouldn't be prevalent after a few hours of playing.

A few HOURS!?? Sorry, but nifty as the game is, I don't have that many hours to waste!! Anyway, this may be just me, but I've noticed that the "hard" words are easier than the "easy" words. Or is the difference in the number of changes you have to make mistakes? I didn't bother to read the rules.
