	Yeah, I'm gonna say this before this game possibly gets released: you canNOT include "DIVERSE" in "find the words in DIVERSE". If you want to count it as a bonus, fine, but in no way should that be an actual answer. That's like including a crossword answer in its clue- you just can't do it. Also, I'd tack on another minute- I got two words right at the end, and I still missed a bunch of simpler ones (DIVES, RESIDE, DERIVE, others). Otherwise... hell, if there was one of these every day, I'd be giddy as a schoolgirl.

	Agree with kicking, having diverse there is pretty cheap, and any number of these would make me happy. I love the concept. Surprised they cut it off at 5 letters though, but i guess with 'r', 's', and 'd', there are a loooooot of options

	Eider is a real word. It's a type of bird - maybe some kind of duck or goose.

	Hint for everyone complaining about word choice: They are SCRABBLE words, not regular words. For example, the word za is short for pizza in scrabble, but is never heard of anywhere, or at least that I know.

	Platypus222:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:30 GMT	38 points
	@Kicking222: It's like Scrabble -- if you happen to be dealt a 'D','I','V','E','R','S', and 'E', you can most certainly play it as "DIVERSE." That's the rules and keeping diverse off wouldn't make any sense. Yeah, it's a cheap point, but valid. Either way, it's only one answer, so how much does it matter?

	thefooman:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:31 GMT	13 points
	@juviejay - 1st off it is Sporcle, second, take it up with the source or scrabble or, jeez I dunno the dictionary. as for diverse, it is a damned if you do or damned if you don't - diverse is a 7 letter word so what are ya gonna do?

	sten:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:32 GMT	-4 points
	Yay, got 21! I definitely agree with Kicking about "diverse"—it shouldn't be included in there. (maybe I'm just saying that because I didn't, ha! but less than 40% did, so I think that's reasonable..)

	ElDavo:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:35 GMT	7 points
	No, it doesn't say "what can you play in Scrabble using these letters" it says "name words that can be made from the word diverse." It IS the word diverse. That's like going outside, finding a tree, and saying you turned it into a tree. That doesn't make sense and diverse shouldn't be one of the answers.

	MRL:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:45 GMT	34 points
	To those complaining about Diverse: This is classic set logic. When enumerating the subsets of a set, the original set is always included. There's no reason for this to be different. You can, most certainly, make the word "diverse" out of the letters in the word "diverse". That it's trivial changes nothing.

	Eliot:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:47 GMT	28 points
	While I was playing this quiz, the screen was continually updated to show me how many "points" I had scored (where a seven-letter word is worth 11 points, or something like that, and a six-letter word is worth some other amount of points, etc.). The results page (www.blahblahblahresults.php) does not even tell me what my point total was; nor does it tell me how that total compares to the totals of other people. The results page DOES show me how many words I entered. I would hope that for a quiz that shows "points" while the player is playing, the results page could show me not only how I rank against other players in terms of the raw number of WORDS that were entered in the allotted time, but also show me how I rank against other players in terms of the POINTS that were earned in the allotted time.

	fatbeard:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 04:50 GMT	-3 points
	@MRL, I understand what you're saying, but the phrasing of the title is relevant. "..words that can bemade from the word DIVERSE". You're not making a word if you just retype diverse. You're just taking what's given to you

	@ MRL: Then where is the answer 'sporcle' on the other quiz...i understand your argument and i know sporcle isn't an actual word, but it isn't even a bonus answer on the other one; they ignore the set rule you're using in mathematical reasoning...why do it one way on one quiz and another on the same style of quiz?

	Kalessin:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 05:18 GMT	16 points
	@vogz: you answered your own question. If sporcle was a word it would have been an answer in the other quiz.

	Rave:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 05:35 GMT	8 points
	sporcle has answered my craving for another word challenge

	Evan:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 05:56 GMT	41 points
	am i the only one to notice "deers" wasn't acceptable? i checked the dictionary and it is acceptable as a plural as well as "deer"

	browneyednerd:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 06:30 GMT	13 points
	Did anyone else try "erised" or was I the only one?

	luxx:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 06:39 GMT	16 points
	@Evan I agree, has deers suddenly not become a word?!

	swellwrench:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 07:40 GMT	3 points
	so uh...why "diverse?" is there some connection between that word and sporcle I'm not thinking of or was it just picked out of a hat?

	Steesh:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 07:47 GMT	5 points
	@ juviejay - please, please define a real word..... i'd love to hear it.

	xander:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 08:55 GMT	10 points
	considering all the comments and the theme of this thing, I propose the next word we scrabble should be tolerance ;)

	phalanxfan:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 10:01 GMT	8 points
	Deers is a variant form of deer (pl) included in some dictionaries.

	HalfWelsh:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 10:16 GMT	2 points
	10% of people missed "verse" from the word diverse?? It's right there in front of you!!

	I think I tried deers 5 times and then setteled for reeds

	thehotstepper:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 13:00 GMT	7 points
	I hope I'm not the only one who tried "Veird" with a German accent

	sub:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 13:30 GMT	11 points
	this really could use another minute or so

	grambrog24:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 13:34 GMT	4 points
	fruitcakelover. If you have ever seen the movie 3 ninjas, then you will realize the word za makes a huge appearance. and i quote, "kidnapping is way better than burglarly", "Yea, and there's some pretty good za too."

	rockgolf:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 13:43 GMT	7 points
	I would have loved to see the "Results" chart based on points scored (out of 363) rather than words found (out of 44). I was concentrating on the "big point" words. (But all I got was "DIVERSE".

	bugaffi:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 14:38 GMT	10 points
	Kind of crazy that more people got "RESIDE" than "RESID" considering you have to spell the latter to get the former.

	superpole2000:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 14:40 GMT	5 points
	I can define about 10 of these words.

	orbit:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 14:43 GMT	9 points
	About deers, deers is a word and it's actually a different type of plural than "deer" itself. Deer of the same species in a group would be pluralized as "deer", but if there are different species of deer, biologists would refer to them as "deers". It's the same way with fish having the plural "fishes", e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishes_of_the_World

	GeordieGordie:	Aug 28th, 2009 at 15:07 GMT	-4 points
	bugaffi you are making me feel bad because I didnt get either. RESID is not a word I use in everyday conversation anyway, neither is RESIDE come to think of it. I got half the words, but probably less than half the points.
