        Frankly sir, as much as you've contributed to this game in the past, it's gotten to the point that many of us dread you winning a word ...
        I'm sorry you feel that way. If it is the will of the group the 24 hour rule can be changed - it is not sacrosanct.

        Alternatively, as I have suggested, if the group will give me flexibility to be able to update the following evening but at a later time (sometimes slightly more than 24 hours) then I guarantee to update each evening when I get in from work. This would allow a second update most nights.

                  Its not that simple Paddy, for reasons I have explained. I don't often log on in the mornings, so sleep + work + drinks or whatever means I am out of the house (or asleep) for long periods of time. Thus if I update when I get in one night, and don't get chance to update again that night, then get back slightly later the next night (even by one hour) I lose the word when people swoop in. Naturally I wish to avoid this, and the only way I can do so is to delay the initial update by a couple of hours so that I still get back in time the next night to update. See?

                          Actually, it is that simple. The last word you lost, for example, you had posted several times while the update was pending. Dragging the word out doesn't really help you any, but it does tend to make the game less fun for others.
