I just donated 110 grains of rice. GRAINS!!! I'd love to know if the counting process is automated!

Have you seen the guy in the International Market who will print your name on a grain of rice ?

I donated 200 grains, then got this one wrong...

hircine = goat-like
(forgot what I guessed it was?)

I gave up when I got to level 34 so I don't know how many grains. It certainly is a long game.

I guess there is no limit to this. I quit at 1,000 grains.

Re: Get smarter while donating rice to the hungry

I don't think there is a limit...would defeat the purpose! I stopped when I did because I ran out of time but I missed a couple of questions and it let me keep on going.

Please don't chase that sleep. Embrace it and let it catch up to you, then be safe in its prescence. It is the middle of my day now Monday for me. You are not alone ! Ever .... I never had the patience to finish the grains of rice thing and cut out at level 34.

Be safe and sleep sound,

My very best to you and yours.

Level 48, 2000 grains, plenty fun guessing some of those funny words.

Re: Get smarter while donating rice to the hungry

That is an interesting game. Just don't count TOO much on its making you smarter. Some of those definitions are more like explanations...for example (to pick one most of us would know), the correct match for "quince" was "fruit." While quince is a fruit, it certainly does not MEAN fruit. If you didn't know that, you'd think you learned a new word and its definition.

Fun. No time to try it now, though
