Cool - where are you sourcing the candidate words?

  I used the frequency lists from Wikitionary for searching an ranking. They've got the 40,000 most frequent words.

    The client downloads the current word list from this URL: http://static.iminlikewithyou.com/drawsomething/wordlist.csv http://static.iminlikewithyou.com/drawsomething/wordlist.csv I've been meaning to see if I can run a proxy and substitute my own words. EDIT: I personally use wordplay (http://hsvmovies.com/static_subpages/personal_orig/wordplay/index.html http://hsvmovies.com/static_subpages/personal_orig/wordplay/...) with the -lx flags on this file when I'm stumped

      Nice! Steve - can you use this word list instead? (http://static.iminlikewithyou.com/drawsomething/wordlist.csv http://static.iminlikewithyou.com/drawsomething/wordlist.csv)

        Yep, the site includes that word list now :)

      Wow, great find. Obviously using the actual list would be a lot more helpful since they often combine multiple words into one ("lavalamp", "musicbox") and use a lot of very current pop culture references ("lin", "ladygaga"). Definitely a unique dictionary.

      Wow thanks for the link to the csv. I just pushed a new version that uses that list!

      You can use a proxy and substitute your words. Also take in mind that the format is <word>,<score (1,2,3)>,<premium word or not (0 or 1)>
