Following up on the post before this one.  Another friend of mine posted his high score. I met Murray through email as we both love word games. http://palmmac.typepad.com/palmmac/2009/04/wordpop-schoolboy-error.html

WordPop – schoolboy error

IMG_0005 Doh.

Spent two days building up this terrific WordPop score, as you can see from the photo, hit 71 rounds and 18 000 plus which would have been enough to get me in the Top 10 all time ranking and then when I finally had to call, it quits I wondered why my score wasn’t uploaded.

Transpires I had the iPhone in Airplane mode…..ooops.

All that effort for nowt.

Double Doh.

I was reading twitter when one of the people posted his high score.  It is always so rewarding when you work hard on a new feature and then see it used.  http://stattos.blogspot.com/2009/04/wordpop-no1.html

 Congratulations to Statto for being number one.

WordPop No.1

I’ve just messed up a WordPop game. But my score of 52,567 on round 185 puts me No. 1 on the global all time scores on the iPhone! How about that? Never been No. 1 at anything before….

Sammy, the brilliant man behind Palm Addicts, asked me if I would like to have a fun contest on his site. I jumped at the chance.
