I think I was at 970 before I got some kind of server error. But hey, that's like half a bowl of rice... ;)

I feel like if I stop playing this at any point, I'll go to hell.

Damn good incentive if you ask me. :P

I didn't get that far. To many difficult words. But I got some right, so I helped donating a few grains of rice. Not that it will solve the problem but it might be a start......

Crash ;)

...with crispy French Fries...
...and fresh bread and butter...Sumptious!.... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Nice idea, but I got bored with it quite quickly

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

I also got bored quickly, however even if you have a 5 minute go a couple of times a week, it should still help ;)

I was hoping for nice, tasty Pilau Rice instead of plain old Basmati Rice... :'(...!

Never mind, mustn't be too choosy... ;)...

It all goes down well with a nice hot Curry Sauce... :D...!

F.... 8-)...!

I just had a thought (don't worry, I'm okay), What would the people receiving this free rice think of the fact that their next meal depends on a game?  :-?
