hmmm, I'm not seeing it.
In this game I deliberately left "tars" until there were only three seconds left, and then submitted it; it showed up green and then was in the list of words at the end.

I'll try again, but I actually don't see how this could happen--the same exact code is run whether it's near the end of the game or not (just that low times are printed in red). |
