It would be kind of cool to +1 the word for protection. And then it has to be not that more +1 times. You wouldn’t have to “secure” it too much from cheaters, once per word per session would sound fair.

Whatever has to be killed will be killed, though it wouldn’t be terrible to “stick up for a word” would it?

I did rampage the list a few times, I targeted ridiculous words, a few I hated, and sometimes thought of pairing down variations of words I left alone.

A few people have brought up the idea of protecting a word and this will likely be implemented in some form after the first round is complete. Still thinking through options. Adding session based up/down votes per word (perhaps with a max), and any count that is negative removes the word, feels like a good route. This would help protect words from random clickers. My only worry is that it could create a scenario that makes it difficult to get to a final word.

Thank you for helping to get to that last word!
