Re: "non-words: CRYPT PYRRHIC"
@corscada: Thank you; dictionary updated (though today's game will not be altered). By the way, when you see 'non-words' here, it is usually joke words using the letters, often forming lude-sounding things that are not in the dictionary. CRYPT and PYRRHIC are just missing words.

PYRRHIC, btw, is not 'Pyrrhic', a capitalized word meaning something attained at a ridiculous cost. When lowercased, pyrrhic refers to a measure in poetry consisting of two short syllables.
non-words: CRYPT PYRRHIC
