I used the F5 trick that bilby suggested (see bugs).

Marvellous, moll. But how do you know with the front page all stopped up?

Yarb, another monosyllable is tops at the moment--grace.

Yes - we've had a new word on average every 79 (just under) hours. Five of the 111 were monosyllabic (moist, love, git, fish and yock). A lot of these words I added with a bitter taste in my mouth - there are a lot of very ho-hum words on this list - but there were a few delights: cernuous, dino-fuzz, clamberskull, hobbitry, doomstool, muffineer, naufragous, yock, frown of approval and the unforgettable bristol stool scale.

Eleventy-one words, yarb--a good haul for one year.

Thanks for maintaining this while I've been away, mollusque. Back next week.

Isn't it marvelous! Only the third monosyllabic word to make it to the top (and the other two were the ghastly moist and git).

Mollusque, this list would be a failure without you - so I've added you as a contributor.

Yarb, diaphanous was on top for a while yesterday.

Magnanimous is back. Should it be listed again?

Yeah, that sounds neat! I was going to suggest features but you already did... see you over there.

That would be useful, pter.

You know, when I first joined Wordie, I thought that "Most Wordied" meant "Most Commented On". Now I know that it doesn't, I find myself wishing that there were a "Most Commented On" list for the last 7 days. It'd be nice to be able to see at a glance which words are getting all the action this week.

Anyone else feel the same way? If so, I'll nip on over to features and submit it for John's consideration.

Thanks mollusque - I've been hors d'internet for the last week except for a snatched hour on Weds, back now though.

(On the rhythm of Ain't no sunshine)

Honeysuckle's at the top,
And I'm stuck in th'oubliette.
Now crepuscular's above all,
the doll's head inside a bowl
Will not be crème de la crème.

Moreover, yarb, if you add the SECOND word you MAKE it a word worth adding!

Excellent, thanks mollusque - I almost forgot it...

Oubliette was top of the list briefly today.

Confelicity was top of the most wordied list for about a week ending about two weeks ago. At one point it had 9 listings in one week, the highest I recall seeing for any word. I don't remember what topped the list after that. John could probably reconstruct it.

whichbe - I think a simple "thumbs up / thumbs down" vote and stat for each word is a great idea!

Comment by yarb, about 1 year ago

Tue, 10 Jun 2008 21:38:54 +0000

If you give me the approximate date, mollusque - but I want it to be a continuous list, so I'll also need any words between confelicity and blattteroon.

Comment by mollusque, about 1 year ago

Tue, 10 Jun 2008 21:27:19 +0000

Could you backdate it a bit and start with confelicity?

Comment by whichbe, about 1 year ago

Ahaha, it's also another angle/method of looking at "word popularity" besides The Big List.
Alas there aren't any 'anti-words' wherein users could 'vote down' words they didn't like.

I know. It's positively evil. Deliciously so. *mwaahahahaha*

What I particularly like about this list is its reflexiveness. By adding a word to this list, I may prolong that word's stay at the top of the "most wordied, last 7 days" list, thereby denying another word the chance to top that list.

Hey, good idea!
