I wonder how "dave" got through then? Also the odd OSPD word rejects. I have a more current SOWPODS (OSPD+OSW) if you're interested.

It is definitely NOT the OSPD3. For instance, it just now rejected YO.

Here are others, in messages I posted on the Toys board last September:

In addition to the words people have already mentioned, these words were all rejected in the past few days: ditz, unwinnable, wideout. They are all in Webster's 10th, and the shorter ones are in OSPD3. Another oddity is that the game accepts words not normally acceptable because they have to be spelled with capital letters, words like Aztec, CIA, Fiji, Hopi, July, Maine, OK, and Zen.
