Change a Letter Game

Now let me POKE a question:

Of the total posts, how many posts do not contain a valid word? In other words, how many posts are legitimate (with words) and how many not legitimate (thrown out b/c of duplicates, etc.)?

There's another category: posts that contained legitimate words all of which were later found to be duplicates. They were not thrown out, per se, but they didn't add any unique words to the list, either.

This is post number 652.

There have been 20 posts, including this one, that did not contribute to the game. Either they contained no contributions (like this one) or the first (or only) offered word was a duplicate that was caught before the game continued (i.e., posts 293 and 649). Effectively, no words were added to the list as a result of those posts.

There have been 14 posts that contained nothing but duplicates that were not deleted from the list. Post 383, for example, contains only the word GOOD which was later identified as a duplicate word. The word GOOD appears twice in the list and IcemanND counts it as one of the duplicates, but post 383 did not contribute to the game from a unique words perspective.

Therefore, there have been 34 non-productive posts and 618 productive posts so far.
