PREVIOUS / OLD RELEASES | Version 1.24.0, released "26.08.2012" | - Corrections to the word lists.

- Corrections in the English word-list; replaced Venezia with Venice since this is after all an English word list:) Thanks to Jessica Benson for the tip!
- Corrections in the Norwegian word-list; corrected bagasje+bagasjelokk. Thanks to Lars Sæle for the tip!

Version 1.20.0, released "14.04.2012" | - Ads are shown less frequently. Was every 3. word-complete, now every 8. word-complete. This means an ad are shown only approx once every 5-6 minutes of game play.

- Corrected some words.
Version 1.19.0, released "07.04.2012" | - Removed ads from all pages, and uses instead a full-page ad on every 3. word complete. This makes the full- and ad-versions more similar (ads do not take up space in the game-page), this also improves the animation-speeds in the ad-version of the game, and the ads also made the app uglier in my eyes.
- Reduced price of the full-version with 33%, from 2.99 USD to 1.99 USD, so if you hate the full-page-ads it will be cheaper to go 'PRO' :)

- Even bigger buttons, uses every little bit of available space to make it as easy as possible to hit correct button even in the AD-based version. PRO-version still have largest buttons due to more space without the ads.

- More robust handling and error-reporting when program crashes due to problems with local storage on the phone.

- Made some nice enhancements to the indicators that discretely tell you that the game is communicating with my server.
- Local-update of the high score page is now smarter. Typically you will now see your score and placing instantly shown correct in the list, and then updated with any changes that the other players has gotten seconds later (when webservice answers). Much smoother and more elegant experience me think...even though it is probably only me who notice such minor details :)
- Removed the invalid word 'catastropy' (thanks for the tip, Claudia)
- In two-player game, it is now not possible to enter words that only contain '-' or space (thanks for the tip, Markus)

- Several other bugfixes
Version 1.11.0, released "19.08.2011" | - The game is now FREE WITH ADS (LITE-version and TRIAL-version).
- LITE- and TRIAL-versions are identical to the FULL-version, but with advertisements.
- Have tried to make the game screen as unaffected by the ad-banner as possible, so clock-bar is hidden in AD-version so that I did not have to make the buttons too small. FULL-version has clock-bar AND a little bigger buttons.

- In version 1.6 you actually got the FULL-version when you downloaded the TRIAL-version, this was a mistake of course, and this has been fixed in 1.7. So anyone who has the TRIAL-version in version 1.6...and like to get stuff for free that they were not meant to have...don't upgrade to any of the new versions ;)
Version 1.6.0, released "09.02.2011" | - Added a new game mode, local-two-player-mode. Play with a friend on the same phone, and create the words that the other player shall guess
