v1.0.3.9 is released. It removes nonessential writing to a log-file from the search code, because it was slowing Searches down notably. Now log-writes only happen when the Debugger is attached, or if an error is thrown in the Search code.

We're down to the final few hours. Your entries must be released by midnight server-time (a little more than 4.5 hours from now), to be included in the writeup and screencasting. Thanks to those of you who have let me know your intentions. Several threads have been changed to "Release" threads. This is a heads-up to those who haven't chimed-in that we need to know if you'll be able to make the deadline or not. Anyone who reads this and finishes his/her release-version by the deadline, please change your thread's title to include the word "Release".  Much thanks!

Everyone, thancock20 has won the monthly high-score several months in a row (big congrats, thancock), and the competition has come to an end. Altogether, the contest allowed people to have fun and enjoy a twist on the classic Hangman game, with a chance to win donation credits. I wound up doling out a total of $30.00 worth of DC Credits, and immensely enjoyed doing so! Thanks to all who participated!

Good deal!  Just change the title in your original post to include the word Release when you're ready. That'll clue us to do the screencast.

capitalH, if you want to make any more changes/updates to the program before releasing it, let me know. It's a great app, and we want to get it screencasted as soon as possible. The way mouser and I know these apps are ready is when the authors change "Pledge" and/or "Early Beta" in the OP title to include the word Release.
