I'm conflicted. OED has, without question, the absolute worst WotD algorithm out there. It once chose "mass murder." Today's is "Mattins. Variant spelling of matins" (umm.. thanks?). It's so bad that I've actually grown to love it for the amusement it provides! Just don't expect an education.

This dictionary is fantastic and I love being able to expand my knowledge by getting the correct definition of what the word's mean!
