FreeRice.com Contest

[Thaurismunths]

Because TAD said so, I'm on a philanthropic streak, and someone left the "Add New Topic" button available on the Contests page, I'm starting one.

Visit freerice.com and play the game.
I'm offering two prizes, one for the most rice donated, one for the highest score.
The prize for highest score is a cool coffee mug.
The prize for most rice donated is a pound of coffee and a cool coffee mug.

To play:
Send me an IM with your daily rice donations, I'll keep tally and post a daily leader board.
Send me a screen capture with your top score, and I'll do the same.
Contest ends midnight on March 31, and I'll post the winners shortly there after.

If I win, can I get a bag of 1/4"20 nuts instead?

If I win, can I get a bag of 1/4"20 nuts instead?

Absolutely!
But it'll still only be a pound, and you'll have to grind them yourself.

C'mon TAD, Nash, gimme a run for my money here.  I don't even like coffee!

I'm having to balance being a conscientious husband/father against battling world hunger, here!  And I'm getting seasick from the waves of pure awesomeness emanating from your intellect!

I'm just not as serious about it.  I play while watching a movie or something, but I don't have that kind of (Ironically the word I'm looking for has totally abandoned me at this moment).

**Edit (again): Because TAD broke level 50... no, really. He broke it, so no one else gets to play with it.

I did a little research, since counting grains of rice makes the whole thing a little tough for me to comprehend.  On average, each grain of rice weighs 25mg, or 0.000025kg.  Multiply that by Anarkey's score of 36,260 and that is .9065 kg, or 1.998lb of rice.  Total, this contest has raised 2.279 kg of rice.  Way to go, team EP!
