I noticed that this morning also!  Webtv doesn't work fast enough to get in those high games.  I'm lucky to get in 30 words when everything is going well.

IMO, everything should be reset to zero (# games played, # words found, etc), because the current percentage still counts games where no words were played. Nowadays, such games are not counted in the overall percentage. Generally this happens because of a WebCrawler (GoogleBot) searching through games, but sometimes, people just clicked and then didn't play.

My guess is the true percentage of words found is probably in the mid-to-upper 20's ... thoughts?  :-)

hmm... i like the 100+ word games, especially once my fingers and brain are warmed up.  better chances of high scores and long words.  viva variety.
