Looking forward to your interview Speaker, and thanks for the new thread.
The DWY leader board's been updated, and Apo (with the cheatin' heart!) is at #2.
As far as the space bar use goes, I don't see that as a cheat since it was programmed to work that way. Using fake accounts to get Dharma points is another matter, although I don't judge anyone for doing that either as I don't think the task of recruiting players should be dumped on the player corps. Hoodlum, make a good game and we'll happily tell our friends about it.
I submitted a question for Speaker. I may have to consider another one too. :)
P.S. For those of you who are not familiar with where the Interview page at Lostpedia is located, here is the direct link for where you may submit your own questions to Speaker:
Monte, your (ever so slightly leading) question is priceless! Thanks for the link; I use Lostpedia often but wasn't familiar with the interview portal. Nick also has some great questions about TLE.
I think Speaker is likely to see my name with my question, and immediately respond simply with "Shut Down!"
FYI -- LOL -- I was delighted at Comic-con that Javi still recalled my receiving that exact same message from him, and even introduced me to Les McClaine during one of The Middleman signings as "one of the guys who called my DJ Dan radio show during the Lost Experience."
I have no idea what the test will be, probably a crossword puzzle given their degree of creativity so far, or maybe a word search. With the word list:

EMAIL
ALL
YOUR

FIRST!
Also from last thread:
FYI -- Speaker will be interviewed by Lostpedia this Friday. Follow the links to post questions in advance at www.lostpedia.com.

I think it's shameful that Speaker cheats just to say "First!" ;) :)

Monte,will your follow-up Speaker question be of similiar brilliant wit and humility?

Oh Monte, give it up already!

Anyone have any thoughts about what our next test might be? Hopefully, something will happen today or tomorrow.

Test 2:
What is 2 plus 2
Posted by: amlocke | August 26, 2008 at 11:37 AM
Oh don't tell me its 3....no 2.... no 42... these tests are just too challenging. ;P

Hoodlum is making puzzles at the rate of one/month. ITE is solving these puzzles as they come at at one/minutes.
How long til ITE quits playing the game?
Posted by: amlocke | August 26, 2008 at 12:01 PM
Pong maybe?:-)
Posted by: amandel | August 26, 2008 at 12:01 PM
I'm hoping for Pac Man. ;0)
I think we're all gluttons for punishment, and hopelessly optimistic, so probably a long time before we quit completely.

I'm expecting something along these lines:

I'm 73% nerdy though I prefer the term geek.
Posted by: AprilisLost | August 26, 2008 at 12:50 PM
82%, though I work in IT, kind of unfair... and geek only applies to people working in computers, so yes I'm a geek.
Posted by: amlocke | August 26, 2008 at 01:30 PM
in computers, or with computers...
i spend most of my day in front of one, use it for work, and built the one i'm using right now...
so i is a geek.
74% (mainly cause i was a terrible student)
*lazy swi...*
