Thanks. I am confused. Why is "stormee" credited with my word? - Alchemist, 2007-01-05: 13:01:00
Hi Alchemist, If you submit a word that has already been created by another player, you can choose to join the first player and become a co-creator of the word. That is how stormee joined your team. I guess it's proof that great minds think alike! ~ James - Verbotomy, 2007-01-07: 09:12:00
