Gangerh,
We've discovered two ways to get in touch with other word*i*s. The first way is to write a comment on one of their lists. The second is to go to their "dashboard" (or profile page), scroll down past all of their recent comments, and look for the orange "comments for..." box about halfway down the page.

You cannot escape the charge that you have previously engaged in the amazing pastime that is IDENTIFY THE WORDIE.
You are therefore prime target material for inviting to IDENTIFY THE WORDIENIK.
The whole of the bit of Wordnik that joins in on this would be truly honoured should you participate this time round.
Easily find the right page right now because it is currently the most commented on list shown on the Community page.

Actually PU, there's no real rule about where you reply. Everyone decides for themselves where they will carry on their conversations and most of us seem to chage our minds pretty regularly.
And maybe you should put off waiting for that comment for a few days, hmm? Don't want to seem too motivated or anything. Sit back, relax.

gangerh commented on the list identify-the-wordienik
In the event of a tie, 'zuzu, I propose a playoff. I will ask all losing entrants who want to help in the playoff to select a word that they consider applies to/describes each tied wordnik, one for each of them.
The tied wordniks will have a couple of days or so to match these words with all tied wordniks, including themselves.
Any further ties can be played off in the same manner until we have a winner.
Hope that explains what I'm trying to communicate. And also, now I've thought of that, I rather hope we'll have a tie!
(Or we could just count the number of letters in the words that they got right in the first place.)

You may like to know that when the time for entries is notified there will be a few hours notice. At the moment that the game ends I will take a print of this page and that will be the version used for assessing the results.

gangerh commented on the list identify-the-wordienik
Perhaps, on reflection, 'tisn't such a good idea to comment too much on how you came to your conclusions when you submit. You might give your rivals clues about others they hadn't had of their own.
Let's say we allow two or three days after the game closes, and before the results are announced, for those sort of comments - mmmm - could foster an interesting discussion.

I understand that different time zones have different numbers of sleeps, so 7 is an at least number. If you do siesta, it'll be at least 14. If you porchdoze twice daily, it'll be at least 21 sleeps. If you have sleep apnea, like me, it'll be at least zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

April 22, 2011
gangerh commented on the list identify-the-wordienik
So the game starts.
And anyone with a Wordnik account can join in.
The aim is for you to identify Wordniks based upon a single word that they have chosen that they consider applies to/describes them.
The Wordniks you must identify with the words in the above list are:
bilby
blafferty
chained_bear
dontcry
erinmckean
fbharjo
frindley
frogapplause
gangerh
hernesheir
mollusque
oroboros
PossibleUnderscore
Prolagus
pterodactyl
reesetee
ruzuzu
seanahan
sionnach
Wordnicolina
Wordplayer
yarb
Each of the above-listed Wordniks has confidentially emailed me their chosen word which now appears in this list.
Please enter the competition by submitting a comment in which you link the Wordnik with their identifying word. You may also discuss the reasoning behind your choices if you wish.
Yes, I know there are more words in the list than there are entrants. They’re called cred herrings. And some are less cred than others. Hah!
Be thankful that I didn’t throw a cred herring into the list of entrants – I did consider it.
Remember there’s a prize for the most correct matches!
Note: you do not have to be listed as a Wordnik-to-be-identified to enter. Anyone with a Wordnik account can join in. Just go right ahead!
You have at least 7 sleeps before a closing soon warning but you may post your solution as soon as you wish.
Any questions?

A word of warning if you're going to take part at this stage . . . . do not comment on your intentions anywhere on this site as most of the words submitted have been published and the sharper participants will pick up on the fact that your word is in the last few listed.
April 17, 2011
gangerh commented on the list identify-the-wordienik
Still room for two maybe three more entrants.
To take part you simply choose a word that you feel applies to/describes you and confidentially submit it to me for me to post anonymously on this list. Then, when I feel we have enough entries, I publish the Wordnik names of all entrants. Then everyone gets a few days to match up the submitted words with the Wordnik.
There is a prize to go along with the breathtaking honour of winning.
See the Identify the Wordienik list page for more details.

I have a huge horse-chestnut tree in my back garden. It overhangs the road.
It has a Tree Preservation Order on it, which means that it cannot even be pruned without Local Authority permission.
Sadly, I am currently discussing the felling of it with the the powers that be as it is suffering from Bleeding Canker, which will eventually kill it off. Meanwhile, it is becoming prone to shedding limbs, and is therefore a danger.
The disease is sweeping the UK having moved over from Continental Europe.
A huge proportion of the horse-chestnut tree population of the UK is being lost to the disease.

Yes! Love the new homepage. Love the 'rainbar' mouseover function, too.
fwiw I find that the white typeface for the message on mouseover difficult to read against the colours of the 'rainbars'.
And the homepage now fits my browser window.

It seems to me that spammers join wordnik and the first thing they do is add a comment to their profile.
(Showing up on Zeitgeist as, for instance, 'on pongsomespammer's profile, pongsomespammer said').
I suspect that genuine wordnik joiners do not do this until after some time and after some other activity , and probably after another wordnik has posted to their profile comments.
If this is indeed true, is there some way of using this fact to immediately filter out these spammers?

This was a tax introduced once by the British Government. It led to windows being bricked up to avoid liability. You still see many older buildings with bricked-up parts that were obviously once windows. It is the origination of the phrase 'daylight robbery'. True!
