    I just looked up the word BOBO in BabelFish for shiggles, and the Spanish to English definition is "STUPID."

    Wonder if it has something to do with the meaning behind the name, or maybe BabelFish just doesn't like me!

    Closer definition would be "Cute stupid"

    Not for you I meant for the word BOBO LOL, but if I were you I would have a serious conversation with BabelFish, just in case, better be friends with dictionaries, you know.

    :)

    "Why did the TouchArcader cross the road":

    Because he/she only had $3.17 left in the gift card, but noone answered his/her poll on what buses to get :D

    -> probably only (remotely) funny if you know the kind of threads we have in TA lol

    Sigh, to be stupid AND cute...

    It's nothing a box of chocolates and some flowers can't resolve. BabelFish can be so temperamental... :)

    BTW, the video & screens do look nice. Congrats...

    Hopefully in updates we can get more "special items". A bomb and wildcard are a good start but I'm sure you can think of at least a couple more. :)

    One of the only times I was ever on the top of any scoreboards if only for a couple of hours.

    My wife can testify one of my favorite catch phrases to describe a game like this would be "Cute & Stupid". Although to be fair this game isn't "stupid" in the least but more "simple" in a clever addictive way. ;)

    "Why did the TouchArcader cross the road"

    To stock the Cafe, of course! ;)

    You gonna let that roadkill go to waste? :eek:

    I must have guessed right about the name as the first thing that came to mind was Peter Sellers in The Bobo.

    "Why did the TouchArcader cross the road"

    because they thought they saw a sale on iTunes gift cards (sadly it was just a mirage brought on by wishful thinking). Unfortunately, the speeding city bus was neither a mirage or wishful thinking. On a positive note, the person is recovering just fine in a local hospital where several friends and family members got together and got him an iTunes gift card instead of flowers. To a TouchArcader this would all be worth it to get that card. :)

    Received the code. Thanx. Though a little disappointed when you mentioned not to expect any bo... err.. nvm :D:D

    Will leave my impressions here once I try it out. Anyways, I`m a lil surprised to see so few attempts here.

    The promo contest is still on btw, if any one wants to try his luck here. :D:D

    Well I don't know that I am a particularly funny guy -

    I do enjoy some of those things that make you go hmmmm...

    A few examples - why is it when moms stay at home with their kids they are being mothers, but when dads stay at home they are babysitting?

    Why do we type things like talk to you later - when we are typing?

    Why did Imnosuperman type "Looks like a moderator heard you" when it is obviously on a forum thread and no sound is being generated??

    Maybe they will generate a smile?

    Lightening and rain here in Florida as well. Love the look of your game, and would love to win a promotional code to try it out. I think that myslef and hrgpac have bonded.:D
