I couldn't believe that I could actually understand what I was reading. According to a researcher at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last must stay in place and you can still read it without problem.
This is because the humand mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole.
Amazing!

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
