Phase 4 of VerbCorner launched!

[Games With Words]

Hi Folks,

There has been a lot going on at GamesWithWords behind the scenes over the last half year. Much of this has to do with making our website more secure and robust. 

That work is now done, and in combination with that, we have launched Phase 4 of VerbCorner. At this point, nearly 9,000 volunteers have contributed nearly 450,000 judgments. Not only is VerbCorner the largest project of its kind, but we have probably collected more data about the meanings of verbs than all previous studies combined. Many thanks to all our volunteers.

However, there is still a lot left to do. With Phase 4, we've added nearly 2,000 new sentences that need to be studied. You can help out here. Remember that you can recover your password if you have forgotten it. Our analysis method works better if you use the same ID every time. 

There will be a few updates in the next few weeks, including describing the results of some recent studies.

Thank you again for all your help.
