I wrote this because as someone who enjoys programming, lisp is/was a bit of a steep hill to climb, and hopefully this could help pave the way for others. I'll post this on HN in a bit, but just wanted some feed back. Please tell me anything I missed or your thoughts in general.

check it live: http://coconutrandom.com:8080/guess

side note: it's took me 20 days at 1-3 hours a day to write these 60something lines of code. And the majority was written in the last two days.

cool stuff... I was hoping at the end there would be a list of top scoring users.... oh well :)

on a side note: should your page title be thought, rather than though ?

A man, a though, a random coconut.

Is there a reason we need to be logged in to play your game? Does it keep track of the users score?

Good point.

Feel free to use user:pass as a login. I considered using cookies, but personal and global high scores are next the list and I was heavily referencing blog.arc, besides, you only have to login once.
