Here is the official line (taken from a readme from my own scrabble game for RiscOS!)

The valid two-letter words always cause arguments. According to the makers of
the Scrabble® game, there are a 109 2-letter words that are acceptable in the
British English version of their game. Interestingly, though there are only 96
in the North American version, it is not a sub-set: there are 12 extra words
not in the British English version (AB AG AL DE ED ET HM MM OP PE UH YA).
The only significance of the lowercase words is that they are deemed 'commonplace'.

Just restarted our game from Friday, Alan, if you want to continue....

http://espn.go.com/gen/news/2002/1220/1480138.html

http://games.yahoo.com/games/login2?page=lt

i'm quite proud of that. simple.

I play online Scrabble through Facebook. Anyone want to play an ongoing ilx game?

I am heather nijoli robinson on FB and youc an find scrabble here: http://apps.facebook.com/ea_scrabble_closed/?ref=ts

Please don't revive threads pertaining to Scrabble--I've been off the Internet Scrabble Club for three weeks. You just popped open a beer in front of an alcoholic.

haha!

(looks back semi-fondly on my isc.ro days)

Second person arrives on the scene with a six-pack. (Just kidding--it's all up to me.)

I'll play! and with anyone else who dares, as well.

Clemenza, look away --

::SPOILER::

Just started games with Nijoli and Crüt!

::SPOILER::

Haw.

I am now playing games with Crut and WmC.

I am starting a game with the two of you together.

ALSO, I started a game with Trayce, Ian and Laurel but Ian has yet to join it.

hmm, i don't see the invitation? i play facebook scrabs with pete & ade.

i feel dissed that i have not been invited to this ilx scrabble game

it is limited to just three invites per game. i will start a new one with you and two others...

ian - it is there. it says "awaiting players" but me, laurel and trayce have all come to the game.

I started a new one with me, sarahel and ian j

ooh. and curtis had started one with me, sarah, ian and himself. so much scrabble going on!

Thats weird, I hadnt accepted/added your request til just now, did it say I had? I didnt even have the Scrabble app installed lol :)

hm i dont know if i can play it. It says us/canada only :(

oh, rats

ian's a pretty fierce player. i didnt take him seriously at first... big mistake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No SOWPODS on the official game? :(
I miss the Scrabulous glory days

I wanted to play, I like scrab... BOOOH.

me & ade have some good games, it's true.

words with friends

tho the fact that you can chance words without repercussions annoys, it leads to you getting nonsense words like 'rootages' played against you for 234546 points

I was as surprised as you were!

No apologies for LINSEED tho -- approx 99 bingo options in that rack.

I looked at those letters and drew a blank. So I checked--there are only two others: "ensiled" and "enisled." (No idea what either means--I think the second one comes from the Snoop Dogg dictionary.)

heh

I laugh when Rob Ford tells everyone that his personal addictions don't affect his job performance; whenever I have an online-Scrabble-addiction relapse, that affects my job performance, and I would think that crack and alcohol might present bigger problems. I'd been off isc.ro for well over a year, stupidly went back on, then spent all week trying to work my rating up to 1500 so I could quit again. I have seven or eight accounts, and that's the bar I always set for myself--such is the logic of the addict. Anyway, took 325 games, but I managed, with ridiculously little sleep along the way. I don't know, I think I might have played WSHQ in there, who was posting upthread.

"So I could quit again"--yeah.

Had my highest score ever last week, 607. Admittedly, it was against one of ISC's lesser computers--one of the ones rated around 1,000. (Playing one of their 1,400 computers, I'll win maybe 40% of the time; playing a 1,700 computer, forget it.) They tend to leave the board wide open, and you'll occasionally get a game where they lay off for five turns in a row.

All of that aside, you still have to get the points. I didn't jot down any details--should have--but I know I had three bingos, and one of them was a triple-triple for 150+.

Best recent bingos: messiah and wheelies.

New highest score: 624. Indulge me here--I don't think I'll ever score higher.

I was again playing a low-rated computer (rating around 900). They're not terrible--I'll lose to such a computer once every 25 or 30 games. But they don't play defensively, and they have no end-games to speak of.

The final score was 624-216, and I had four bingos.

1. bored (22)
2. qi (25)
3. senator (68)
4. dex (36)
5. orating (70)
6. kas (44)
7. own (30)
8. jagg (26)
9. fun (33)
10. pulleys (79)
11. mom (26)
12. handers (104)
13. hit (22)
14. blast (27)
15. on (8)

Almost a perfect draw: q, x, j, k (the computer drew the z), both blanks, all four s's. A reminder of how Scrabble vocabulary has little to do with the actual world: "ki," "dex," "kas," and "jagg" for 131 points, and I have no idea what a "hander" is.

Set a world record today: 965 points.

Well, okay, there was a catch. The computer (I was playing on a site called Pogo) was stuck or something and passed every turn. Took me three or four turns to clue in, at which point I started exchanging and exchanging letters until I could lay a bingo. Sometimes I had to exchange 20 or 25 times--there seemed to be a limited variety of replacement letters it would give you, so I'd have to abandon one possibility for another. Final score: 965-0.

Wanted to get 1,000 points next game, and started with five or six bingos. I had to lay off next turn to open something up, at which point I was somewhere around 450 points. And then, the whole site went wonky and I wasn't able to finish.

Beating up on a computer that only passes is a little sad. I'm calling it an experiment.

Respect!!

<3 this thread and all Scrabblers.

ha, i hope you manage the 1k game some day. the friends i play with are always quite defensive (as am i), so we tend to end up with crammed boards that struggle to get beyond the 300s.

Seriously, it was quite fraudulent. With no time limit, unlimited exchanges, and no opponent, anyone who plays semi-regularly could have done the same.

I used to play this woman on isc.ro who'd make bingos left and right if you left her a wide-open board. I think her handle was Topaz1316. She just played for bingos, didn't seem interested in anything else, so if you could close off the board towards the end, you could beat her. She laid off a lot, too, in search for that one letter she needed, so sometimes I'd just try to jump to a big enough lead that her two or three bingos wouldn't matter in the end. Because she would get them sooner or later. God, I hated losing to her, and I lost to her a lot.

played 'jejune' in words w friends

Wow, I totally forgot about the phenomenon of playing Scrabble via Facebook. Is it just because I don't really do Facebook anymore that that seems forever ago, even though it was likely only four or five years ago that I did that with some regularity? Or is it generally passé? I don't even really hear people talk about Words with Friends anymore.

Never played it. I tried something called Lexulous, and it was silly. Anyway, I've been on the wagon for two whole days. I can't talk about this stuff.

Where do you play online scrabble if you don't have nor want a FB account?

your rack is S K W E R A N and it is your turn to play

I thought there might be a place that hasn't been colonised by the fungick skewrans.

Xelab: try the Internet Scrabble Club (isc.ro). But don't even think about it if you are in the least bit prone to addictive behaviour. Seriously.

don't do it man, don't do it

Thanks for that clemenza, it is perfect!

I should have also mentioned that you'll run into some fungick skewrans on there, too, especially in the 1000-1400 range. Most people are fine, but there are a few psychotics. (I used to know who to avoid, but that was a few years ago, and there's lots of turnover.) If you're ever playing someone who's not able to respond to you in the chat window, that's a good indication he's had problems in that area. To be completely honest, I had my moments, too, which is why I eventually stopped playing people and limited myself to computers.

At least there are no adverts and no fucking FB people - that is perfect! The rest is Humanity %-)

^gets it

Oh sorry, a dog appears to have commandeered my computer. Shoo!

The best ones just play scrabble, the ones that go beyond just saying hi do my nut in, but yeah this is really good. extremely addictive yes!

Let me know if you ever want to play a non-rated game.

Best opening bingo ever, against Pogo computer: buxomer. There it was, staring me in the face on my--sorry--opening rack.

wwf: galeazzo

come at me

i'm kinda shitty tho. people keeping dropping those half-sideways multiple kinds of plays on me and i NEVER see them

there is no mercy in scrabble

I had a 168-point word in WWF last month. Wish I'd taken a screen shot.

(xpost) When you start laying bingos on someone, it's literally like you're dunking over them. It's amazing how much of an intimidation game it is.

i need to bone up on my Lexicon of Bullshit Two and Three Letter Words too tbf

I try to drop "qi," "za," "xu," and "jo" into my everyday conversation as often as possible.

kinda felt like crying as a friend dropped four bingos on me in one game recently. final score of 590-389. p rough to get a fairly respectable score and still come out over 200 points down.

I had a few rage-quitters recently, calling me a cheat etc.. not just for two letter words but obscure ones. The miserable fuckers!

no mercy

Best recent plays (vs. Pogo computer): "cocaine" and "estrogen" for bingos, and "rascally"--tagged on the suffix--for a triple-word score. (Turns out it begins with r, not w.)

Not allowed: "proggier."

Had an open "-ox" yesterday adjacent to an open "-ode," joined them with an "l": lox and lode. In another game, I was trying unsuccessfully to find a place for "foggier," couldn't, then spotted an open "r" up top. Sure, why not? It worked: "froggier" is an actual word.

I play this game way, way too much.

don't apologize, froggier is a kick-ass word

Now don't get all froggier than thou on me.

had SYNERGY in wwf but couldnt place it :(

sounds like you didn't

I've basically kicked isc.ro--haven't been on for close to two years. Now fighting Pogo addiction. I set the bar for a good game there at 500 points; the computer never bingos (although it is programmed to play a somewhat smart end-game), and if you match a blank on the board, you can "steal" the blank back. I probably explained this upthread somewhere. I've had numerous funny/weird bingos, but can't think of them right now.

lol 2002: "Holy shit, you can play Scrabble on the internet!"

was playing a rando in wwf, think I won the very 2 first games ever played vs this person, then she proceeded to win the next 40 straight O_O

I just won the last 2 tho so watchout

I can be such a poor sport online, I would've cursed her out after about 10 straight (why I only play computers now).

heh a different rando (with a avatar pic of him in a buffalo bills sweatshirt, smiling broadly w/ his wife and cats beside him) did curse me out and accused me of cheating recently and resigned in a huff when I played 'azotes'

truthfully I like the challenge if ppl cheat, tho I never do, don't see the fun in that

no pride, no soul brother

If you suspect I'm cheating, you can resign in a huff; if you're convinced I'm cheating, make it a minute-and-a-huff.

very little is more satisfying than trailing almost all game, to an opponent who beats me at like a 5:1 ratio, & making a penultimate move that traps them & my knowing they know they cant win :)

Those are great. I just finished a game where I was trailing most of it, had to make some vowel-dump rack management moves late, but finished with GUIDANCE for 107 and the win.

"Biggie" is okay (as in, "no biggie"). "Biggied"--I biggied that motherfucker--is not.

Funny to think back to a time when playing scrabble online warranted an exclamation mark.

I've been binging for a couple of weeks on Pogo--going to try my best to stop for a while. I'd kept away for a year before that. I tend to fall back into it when I'm feeling a lot of stress at work. It's got to be the most idiotic addiction in the world.

After four or five years away, I stupidly started playing on the Internet Scrabble Club again. Stupid because of how addictive it is with me. When it comes to online scrabble, I’m what’s referred to, in a Scorsese film, as a degenerate gambler.

It’s much harder now to get your rating up than it used to be. I went through seven or eight accounts before--I’d quit for a while, then come back with a new username--and I would always manage to get my rating up to 1,500 before leaving. I can’t do that now, even though I’m better than I used to be. I’ll get a little over 1,400, then I’ll drop back. The other players are just too good.

You still get the occasional fraud. I won’t quit a game, no matter how badly I’m behind. I’ve quit once in 800+ games. It was against this player who was clearly using some kind of program. In a three- or four-minute game, this guy (or woman) was laying bingos left and right—four in the first 90 seconds. Making bingos is to be expected; if I get good letters and an open board, it’s not that unusual for me to make two or three in a short game. But it’s also the kind of bingos that’s a giveaway. Almost all of mine fall into one of three categories: “-ers” words (e.g., “jumpers”), “-ier” words (e.g., “mintier”), or “-ing” words. The first one this guy made was “agitable.” Okay, fine--those are common letters, that’d be one you could memorize easily. There were a couple more unusual ones after that. He changed letters at one point, I played, and then he instantaneously laid down “judoists” over a triple-triple for almost 200 points. “Judoists”? It’s a legitimate word--we were playing automatic validation--but give me a break. The human mind just doesn’t pick that word out in a split-second (least of all a player with a ~1,200 rating). So I left the game.

Tried mallese--what everyone speaks in Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Clueless--on Pogo. Didn't fly.

My favourite ever Scrabble moment was when I turned FELINES into WIFELINESS

Specifically to play a friend--who in the end wasn't able to set up an account--I stupidly went back on isc.ro for a few weeks. The level of a play is ridiculous now. 10 years ago, I went through four or five accounts, always bringing my rating to 1500 before starting a new one. About five years ago I returned, and I couldn't get the rating over 1400. I've got to be 50% better than I was 10 years ago (hundreds and hundreds of games on Pogo), but I'm bailing again at 1307. I'm constantly playing people with ratings of 1100 or 1200 who a) have peak ratings of 1500/1600/1700 a few years ago, and b) lay bingos left and right. If you get caught up in it like I do, it's just too nerve-wracking.

I was playing someone a few days ago, rating of ~1150. I was up about 50 points, I had a play, and she had seven letters left. I looked at her letters and they were very un-bingo like: the 'q' was in there, also an 'm'; she had a blank, but it looked like a total jumble. Just to be sure, I played something at the bottom of the board so my last letter was part of the bingo lane--she'd now have to build on my letter.

In about one second flat--she obviously had her word and needed one extra letter from me--she lays "quagmire" across a triple-triple for 203 points. That's what you get from an 1150 player on there now.

Just Pogo, but played "executed" across a triple-triple for 262 points, which I think is the most I've ever had for a single play.

Crazily, the https://isc.ro/ site mentioned upthread still exists and I've created a new account!

Unchanged from 2002 from what I can see...

Definitely still there. See my post three up--haven't been back since.

Cool. what's your account id? I'm ScrabOX3.

I just got a notice yesterday on my Scrabble app yesterday that come June all ratings are getting wiped clean and a new system will be in place

anybody know what this is about?

kudos clemenza!

GG: verlander. I said I wouldn't go back, and I've managed not to, but I'm okay with having a game with someone specific if you can pick a time. (I know this sounds ridiculous, but I have a real addiction problem.)

That's amazing clemenza

My highest play is WANGLERS for 167

The play I'm most proud of though is when I bingo'd with FELINES and then turned it into WIFELINESS a few turns later

*Ctrl-F* ah I posted about that already, well, I was very proud

Re: the notice, it was tl;dr, but basically EA's stepping out of Scrabble and new version (Scrabble GO) from Scopely (which includes in-app purchases?) takes over in June.

My highest is CYANIDES for 158. You all are monsters.

In App Store now, but requires iOS 10+. Hello, darkness, my old iPad 3.

The old EA app was okay. Replicated the board game with reasonable faithfulness. I am sweetly sad that it is going away.

Scrabble Go is a garish mess, with loads of mini-games and mini-challenges and pointless levels and a baroque metasystem of gems / money / points / badges / leagues / tickets. Meant to be both opaque and addictive a la Candy Crush etc. It also very much incentivizes connecting to your Facebook friends or whatever, as opposed to playing as an anonymous guest.

There is still a decent game underneath all this colorful filigree, and I've had one or two opponents who did all right against me. But I'm at like a 98% win rate so I wanna hang back until it gets enough refugees from the old EA app who can actually play strategically.

ha xp

REQUESTS, 212

So I read up on the Scopely reboot and of course it fucking sucks and like everything else simple and good in the world has to be made ugly and complicated and thoroughly monetized

It looks like Candy Crush or some shit with all kinds of lights and pastel buttons and avatars, w/ ads and "social component" and interruptive "mini-games" and incentivized gold fucking tokens and leveling up etc.

WHY

FGTI: I remember your felines-into-wifeliness post, that's impressive. I'm guessing only 5-10% of my bingos incorporate a letter already down (and I don't think I've ever laid one incorporating two or more letters). My best play in an actual non-computer game was "quilters" on ISC; over 200, but not as high as other plays mentioned above.

Just so as not to be a grumpy gus, the one thing I do like is its equivalent of the speed mode (duels).

In EA Scrab you had to wait 24 hours before "nudging" an opponent. Then if another 24 hours went by you could "force forfeit" them. So a game could go on for a week or so, and so I'd have like 8 games going at once, which is not ideal. I do like the opportunity to sit down and concentrate with sufficient pushback from the other side.

24 hours?!? I used to play 3-minutes games on ISC.

There was a timed play option (2 or 5 minutes per move) on the EA app.

Scrabble Go duels are much faster, like 30 seconds? Also various times solo games.

the 24-hour nudge thing never bothered me because I keep as many as fifteen or twenty games going at once...I'm rarely waiting to play

anyway I'm hoping after they get ppl hooked on this they will offer up a no-frills game to buy

Very important correction: "executed" was for 212 points, not 262. Pogo displayed 162 for the word--correct--then I added 100 in my mind for the bingo, rather than 50. (The 'c' was already down on one double-letter square, one of the vowels was a blank, and the 't' was on the other double-letter square.)

Three minutes I can handle--30 seconds, that's crazy talk. (When I went back in the fall, the three-minute games had gotten a little too nerve-racking.)

On EA I had 525 for best game, a 1635 ELO rating, best word was LEAVINGS for 158. 58% win percentage, which seems about right. If pitted against a broad range of serious (but not obsessed) Scrabblers I think that's about how well I'd do.

In Scrabble Go it's, sheesh, 690 "Scrabble Score" (whatever that means), best word 113, best game 465.

Nothing is comparable about these numbers because it's different conditions, a different dictionary, and a radically different competitor pool.

Anyone ever played the Quackle computer? It's ridiculous. I'll have to play 25 games before I win one.

http://people.csail.mit.edu/jasonkb/quackle/

On isc.ro all night, till six this morning, mostly losing. It's entirely Grandpont Genie's fault. And if not him, then China, Nancy Pelosi, and the World Health Organization.

One of the best things about the ISC, though I don't use it often, is that you can watch highly-rated games in progress, often one of their computers against a famous Scrabble player. (Yes--within this parallel universe, there are famous players.) Here's a screenshot I took of a game probably still going on between Joel Sherman and Zurix, an ISC computer. Sherman's won the National Championship a few times, I believe (and is well known for various eccentricities). He's playing the blue tiles.

As soon as I finish here, I'm going to go inhume some zatak.

good news

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/05/24/scrabble-forced-redesign-neon-app-purists-criticized-futuristic/

seems like this kind of thing never happens!

I've often said that people who complain about political correctness are far more tiresome than the thing itself. So I try never not to, especially when I almost always find alleged offenders to have sound reasoning behind whatever has been changed.

Scrabble has had problems over the years. Most of the words that got dropped along the way (they may still be allowed in tournament play, not sure) I'm totally fine with--many are deeply offensive.

Pogo recently redesigned their site--uglier, as all redesigns are--and they also seem to have really tightened their dictionary. Some of the words--fine before the redesign--that have been dropped.

"fag" and "fag(g)ot"--both have normal meanings, but they're so loaded now, I'm fine with this.
"tit" and "ass"--actual animals, getting sillier. (Makes me think of Aaron Spelling, for some reason.)
"bitches"--to me, that can totally mean "to complain"; I get it, but I don't get it.
"slave"--again, I get it, but one can be a slave to one's job, right? This has regularly used, non-loaded meaning.

Am I wrong to balk at some of these changes? Too much the Scrabble player? It's a dumb online game site--not the end of the world, obviously.

"try never not to"--drop that "never"

i'm disturbed by all of these and i'm a fag irl

That would always be my overriding guide: if these words still offend, then sure, take them out. I hear people say "stop bitching" all the time, but if it's a legitimate problem, fine.

Happy to report that "vibrator" is still okay.

Gone: "horniest."

And if you can figure out the logic that says "horniest" is offensive and "vibrator" isn't, you're way ahead of me.

Gone: "boob."

I thought at first they were trying to grapple with a serious issue. They're not--they're eliminating anything and everything that someone might object to so they don't have to grapple with it. (Who except a nine-year old boy would find prurient meaning in "boob"?)

Gone: "hornier."

You can still look for an open 't' and "thornier."

As I do every few years, went back to isc.ro for a month. One of the accounts I started two years ago was still active. Started out just above 1300, went up and down and dropped below 1200 at one point, slowly got back above 1300 and I think that's enough. (You get two ratings now: one for games of 4 minutes or longer, and a "blitz" rating for 3 minutes or less. There are a whole bunch of people who play 1-minute games now. I tried a few--insane.) Even at this level, I always felt overmatched. I regularly lost games where I had a big lead and then the other player dropped a bingo and other big plays right near the end. And you knew it was coming. They're like vultures; it's like they don't even want to win unless they come back from 100 points down. And the bingos...lost one game on "shylocks." (Yes: the other end of the spectrum from Pogo when it comes to offensive language.) Being a sore loser, I never responded when someone who'd just trounced me gave me a "good game." I hate that stuff.

"Sequoias" on a triple-triple for 203 points (625 for the game).

Oops--maybe a mod can remove that url.

lol pretty good. when i was about 12 i worked out that 'xylopyrographic' if played over three triples would get you over 1000 points but didn't get so many extra points from extending existing words - and xylopyrographic isn't in the official scrabble dictionary.

(though xylopyrography is)

looking 4 scrabble opponents!

Are you on isc.ro?

no, i should be tho - that's what my homey [REDACTED] plays on mostly. i use the dumb scrabble phone app.

Too bad...can't help you there.

PATRONNE or gtfo

Steve - there was nothing on the board, it was my opening rack!

i can't think of a valid bingo for PANTONE but maybe you can.

negative.

i'm a negative creep, and i'm stoned.

disappointed also to learn that MANEATER is not valid. cuz of woke. (cuz of hyphenated tbh)

my man

This could be my highest scoring play ever: "quibbler" across a triple-triple for 239 points (189 + 50). Last play of the game...I was helped by this Pogo rule that allows you to take a blank off the board if you have the matching letter on your rack; that gave me the second 'b.' So a little tainted.

Scrolled back, and not my highest: "executed" for 262. Feels like "quibbler" should be higher.
