I'm hoping I'm not in the wrong category here with this message. I'm new to the boards, so please don't tan my hide and hang me out to dry if I've got things wrong here. That noise when you accidentally type a word already on your list in Anagram Mania is pathetic! It sounds like a cat being strangled. Isn't there something better or at least a bit more palatable-sounding than that thing? I hate it! I know others like it; but, I know of at least one other person who hates that noise as much as I do. lol! Thanks for reading.

Hmmm, maybe there should be a way to turn off sounders during games? Or on TheZone for that matter? Just an idea... John

Hmmm. People wanted a sound there. That was the first thing I found. It's suppoed to be some sort of laugh, but I'm not sure. It's not my favorite sound here, I'll admit that.

Well, i will admit its unpleasant...the first time i heard it it scared the crap out of me. But having an option to turn off sound sounds like a good idea.

I love cats, and it's interesting that I didn't think that sound reminded me of a cat at all. I thought it sounded either like a fly buzzing around my head or a person trying to make a fart sound with their mouth.
