The time has come to formalize some previously
unwritten rules. Here they are:

No word will be valid which is a clear variant 
of a word already entered in the same cell. 

Proper nouns are not valid. Since almost
any word, even acronyms like 'NATO,' appear
on dictionary.com in all lower-case, for
questionable entries more evidence will be
necessary. If the word appears in upper-case
in a usage example, it is definitely out.

The following words have been removed:
aasvogel
cowchip
cumquat
czech
pavlovian

And now, the Top Five:

Ray   524 words, 140 bonus, 664 points
Eric  472 words,  70 bonus, 542 points
Krise 421 words,  80 bonus, 501 points
Gadd  471 words,  30 bonus, 501 points
Matt   30 words,  40 bonus,  70 points


Here are the 40 words entered Sunday:
