The ML of Temecula contacted me and wanted to know if this region was interested in word warring with them. The point being that we generate more words than them. So we'd be warring with the Inland Empire. Don't let the name (Empire) and their sizw (400+ peeps) intimidate you! lol Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Let's go for it. When do we start? How do we keep score?

Basically we check how many words they have against how many words we have as a collective. :)

At the end of the month, or on a day-to-day basis? Either way, sounds good.

ETA: LOL, Xander, check out your word count vs mine. (22,222/11,111)

Despite the fact that they have twice as many people as we do? So I gotta aim for 100,000 words now? ;)

We could use a graph such as this to keep score.

It keeps track of the average number of words per person and the number of people.

I'm not sure how it comes up with the number of people. It might be the number of people reporting statistics.

OK, Inland Empire ML here... it's not the whole region (many of whom are not active) against your whole region, it's 10 or 20 of us against 10 or 20 of you - so it's an even playing field. Sound better?

Anyone want to play?
