Mama6---i have been playing this for way too long!! i think probably about eighteen months or so....if not more. there is just something about this game even with all its faults....i know that i have certainly learned quite a few new words!

hey folks: just so you know those are just a few of the problems with this game....but if you like word games don't let that discourage you from playing

toberockn: when you are done playing, you need to hit the continue button and when you get to where it shows a graph of how well you played there is a "submit high score" button to the left of the "continue" button....and welcome to the island!!!

thanks bitzybob and indigo369....and to be honest that was only my third score in the 111,000s. don't know what it is about this game, even with all the aggravation it causes, but it is one of my favorites....

lammagator and rings02: to quit the game: at the right there is a pause, a hint, and other buttons....one of them is a restart button(the one with the curved arrow) and with that you can quit the game and submit your score...unfortunately you cannot pick up where you left off

Greggie---good question about the tokens. quite honestly i don't know what they are for..maybe incentive? you can get sweepstake tickets with them and if you are a paying sw member there are other sweepstakes you can play...and indigo369--i agree about the frustrating part ..but for me the worst is going along just fine and then getting the fish category in round 8 9 or 10!

indigo369: i know what you mean about the time wasted on this game but i tell myself that it is very educational; i know way too many bugs now!! not too mention rocks, math terms, etc...!!

hey rayphil! i think they do that just to aggravate us!! as you said there is no point to it....and "respecful" is just one of the words that is spelled wrong

Paradise Island | Oct 28, 2009 | report abuse
you know, you don't even have to wait for time to run out to end a game....at the right (where the pause and hint buttons are) there is also a restart button..just hit that and you can submit your score

LucySpace---any time the fish category comes up in rounds 8-10 you will need to kiss your game goodbye! i guess the makers of this game couldn't come up with any three syllable fish...and thank you Mama6...there is just something about this game that has me so hooked....and most of my scores don't even get posted....i think i need to get a life :)

Paradise Island | Oct 12, 2009 | report abuse
if anybody knows how i could erase my scores from here i would be more than happy to do so. i don't mean to hog the scoreboard....i lead a very boring life and this is one way for me to pass the time :(

vobbmw: when you are done playing all ten rounds, hit continue twice and then at left (bottom) it says "to submit highscores" good luck

let's see if this works this time: is anybody else getting on message on-screen during this game (or any other) about shockwave wanting to store information on your computer?

Godiva4me: i have had that happen to me as early as the second round....and while it does stink it is just part of the game.

athicha: that happens any time the fish category comes up in rounds eight through ten and sorry but the only thing to do is start a new game. and i agree that it can be annoying but it is still one of my favorites.

shocked156: when that happens, you need to hit the refresh button....it's taken me like five tries before. but it is worth it

hey rayphil! i just got to round ten and...you guessed it it: fish! never seems to come up when i'm having a bad game and wouldn't mind quite as much!! oh well....like i mentioned before, it even happens on the "brain fit" site.

thanks Greggie...i wish i could credit my memory for that score but what it really comes down to is good old luck. having the last three categories being something i know really helped (instead of rocks...i could have that category the entire game and still make mistakes!!)

hey Rayphil: don't try to figure out why certain words are in a category...you will only succeed in giving yourself a headache! i am still trying to figure out what cupid has to do with Christmas!

my "secret" to this game is just plain old luck and having waaay to much time to play it!! someone wrote in a review earlier this year that they scored 157,000 points but was unable to post their score so.....and i make plenty of mistakes

it sure is a good feeling when the categories work for you instead of against you---for me it those darn rocks: that's what i have for brains when it comes up!!
