Missnaughty315
:5th good mornin
TheLadyB
:I just can't stop playing! I keep thinking how easy it is to be helping someone in this manner. I hope this idea spreads quickly and becomes a huge trend!! It's the perfect game for an earth-conscious word-nerd like myself! lol
Nik-Nak007
:rice pudding,rice cakes,rice-a-roni,the rice is right(scooby doo="price is right" =)
TheLadyB
:geez...I'd just like to say that I never thought I would actually type a comment that said, "1st". I always imagined that if I ever got to post first, I'd write something smooth and intelligent...apparently, that went right out the window! I feel like such a loser ....lol!
Mantari
:Good find! I have already donated 1000 grains of rice - but now I need a break. ;-)
AaronzDad
:Wow... get into the 40's levels and they get pretty esoteric.
Fun thing to play with for a while though.
PnCAddict
:Hmmm??? It says on their page that the actual donation would come from their sponsors which is listed on the bottom of the page, but I don't see any sponsor logos. Do any of you see one? Is this donation drive even real? Hmmm...... but it is a fun game. @ lvl 33 right now. And I will reach level 50!
Squeedo
:Wow.... I cant get past 41..... i fluctuate between 37-40. Great game and a great cause....1500 so far!
JhInG
:Oh my, mid-40's levels are very hard even for someone like me who loves vocabulary. This was one part of my English class that I just loved, loved, loved. :o) But I'll keep trying even if I keep making mistakes, all it does is bring you down a level. I will conquer this yet :o)

At the bottom of page in the white box are three sponsors...what I see is iTunes, Macy's, and Fujitsu...

:Okay I've reached level 50(after jumping up and down on those extra hard levels of 47-49) and donated 1710 grains of rice... what next? Stuck on level 50, that's it? No congratulations? Oh well, I think I'll leave it at that... enough vocabulary for the day.

:I like the vocabulary games for a while, but I don't believe for a second this will benefit anyone. Hate to be pessimistic, but I'm sure it's a bogus site, charity-wise.
Seen too many "Help The Starving" so-called charity sites that were full of it. But I hope I'm wrong.
I see the sponsors and affiliations at the bottom of the questions.
Using firefox and standard adblock.

:This site is a sister site of poverty.com. You can go to this site to see other ways to help in the fight against hunger.
Sassymom08
:I do the click to donate on care2.com all the time, I'm "poverty class" but I'm glad to find any way I can help. Thank you for posting this one!
Brian
:Level 50 at 1510 grains. Tough stuff, though, from 46-49.
Aimee
:Wow okay I've got 4000 and now my head hurts, break time :P

:If anyone really wants to help developing countries a better place to start would be to donate to http://www.concern.net ,a very accomplished international aid agency with 39 years experience overseas. How the money is spent is shown here: http://www.concern.net/about-concern/annual--review/annual-review-2006.php
There is also a US office: http://www.concernusa.org/

:Sorry, didn't mean to add that twice. The Anti Spam monkey thing confused me.

:I wonder if I can play this at school. Then I'd finally have something to do online, plus I'd be helping people!
Linzi
:This game is wrong
Salina marie
:1,010 grains :)
MAGPIE
:Mine stops working after a while. I broke it! Shouldn't we be feeding people more than rice? Especially since a well balanced diet helps fight off diseases? Yeah I know I'm a party pooper!
Victoria V
:1200 need a break ( It was fun game) : )
Andiar
:Is this to say these sponsors will only help starving people if we play this game? And where do they get the rice from? aren't there mountains of the stuff being sent out anyway?
nice game btw.
Samthehobbit
:5000 and going, just want to see the symbol for 10000
Samthehobbit
:It just starts over and says
You have donated 10000 grains of rice.
Wow! Now THAT is impressive!
Vmklover
:Hi. I submitted this. I would jut like to thank greame for poting this. I tried posting it on many other sites but they turned me down. I would also like to thank all of you especially Samthehobbit. I hope you feel very good because you fed a hungry person. Goodbye and thanks again.

:This was made by somebody at Disney? Wow. Never expected that.
Jhlipton
:I went to 1000 and level 45. It's going to be tough to get beyond that, but I'll try.
Na
:I like the game - it got me quickly addicted, and had me stumped on a few words I thought I knew! If you like your vocabulary games, don't play it at work; I was playing for quite a while :)
Mandee
:with so many lazylacers playing this, think of how much rice! So far I have over 8000...
Poo
:this is fake you really belive this?
WayNo
:I think 1000 grains would not fill a bowl. Play for fun. Donate some other way. Alot of time spent for such a small amount of rice. Probably are better charities.
Lum
:Man I made it to about 2,500 grains of rice, and then I just couldn't think any more. . I made to about level 44 and at four in the morning, now is not the time to be asking me things I don't know lol . . . BUT! for those of you who do need help, I've found Ask.com has the greatest definition site, because it's all right there for you. No hunting no guessing. Just right there for you. . I certainly need some tea now. . .
L
:This link is not working for me ... help?
Melina
:my first 1000! and i am greek! I am so proud :) going strong...
WackoPlayer
:The link doesn't work for me--any suggestions?
Froggirl
:This link no longer seems to work :(
Mitrebox
:Seems a little douchebaggy to me.
"We have all this rice and we would have donated it but unfortunately you have a poor vocabulary. Now people will starve"
Or
"There is no rice"
reminds me of carbon credits.
I can feel good by clicking on a computer screen rather than go out and help people. Not that I'm actually going to go out and help people, but I think its wrong to feel PIOUS (high and mighty) after clicking a flash game.
Phoenix
:<i>"We have all this rice and we would have donated it but unfortunately you have a poor vocabulary. Now people will starve"</i>
...OR....
"We take all the ad revenue and buy rice with it."
Is something wrong with that?
Sam
:who is the one who counts these grains of rice then?
Annette
:1000 grains, never made it past level 27. Considering that I'm from Germany and thus not a nativs english speaker, I'm qite contend with that.
I just keep wondering how much money these people get from their sponsors for the advertsing. I can't believe that this only covers the money for the rice you win.
Merry C.
:This is a fun, interesting way to expand one's vocabulary while at the same time helping to donate food people need.
Paolo
:1450 grains of rice. I got up to 50, I play a lot of Scrabble. I dropped back twice and the urge to keep going and get back up to my high score kept me going.
Tahireh
:I play every night to 1000 or so as my evening prayer. I tried answering wrong for a while to get my level down to be able to play faster.
