February 2003.  You didn't submit a definition, but you did vote.  Easier
for Joe to remember, because he picked the word.

Jed has an old version of the word list at
http://kith.org/logos/words/fictionary/wordlist.html, but it stops at
1998.  I've got complete archives of 148 words starting from "ustulation"
in January 1997, and prior to that I have a list (possibly incomplete) of
21 more words, with result emails for a few, going back to "shroff" in
November 1994.  I came in with "infangtheof" in April 1995.  Jim said
that he thinks he started the game in 1993, and that it lasted six months
or so before lapsing, and that "shroff" was the first word after that
hiatus.

I don't have the word list list on-line, but I do seem to have some web
space available (assiciated with my DSL account), and I've been thinking
of trying to see if I can set up a web page one of these days.  The
fictionary list is a likely candidate for material to put on there.

I've been playing this game for more than eleven years?!?!
