Seems cool. (http://thepixiepit.co.uk/scrabble/)
-
Zany. Okay, who wants to play?
-S
-
Setting up a game. Players will be notified via email.
-
Set up a game for me, Stingray, and Seph. Emails are via the emails listed in BYOAC account profiles.
-
Okay, I think I did it right. Should be Seph's turn now. Can non-players view the board?
-S
-
Don't know, here's the link (http://thepixiepit.co.uk/cgi-bin/scrab/p3/r10/crossword.pl?board=Chad,_Stingray,_and_Seph)
-
Of course, seph isn't around. Setting up a two player.
-
I'll be leaving in about 20 minutes, but I have no problem with playing two games anyway. :)
-S
-
Two player action (http://thepixiepit.co.uk/cgi-bin/scrab/p2/r19/crossword.pl?board=Chad_and_Stingray)
-
Your go.
-S
-
Hmm...it seems like it would be hard to keep a person from firing up www.dictionary.com in another tab.
-
Why would you? There is a dictionary right on the board page.
-
For that matter there's a dictionary on my desk. :)
-S
-
Ah, I don't have a dictionary I can browse. No biggie.
-
I just managed to accidently drop an X on a triple letter score. :)
I'm outa here in five, so the game may have to continue in the AM.
-S
-
I figured as much, but it's something.
-
Got one more word in. I'll be back in around 7:30 CDT
-S
-
Is the challenge compenent missing in the game? I mean, it's all about strategy -- having a large vocabulary is definitely not the most important skill in Scrabble, but it can certainly work to your advantage in a big way to have someone challenge an obscure, but real, word once or twice in a game to give you extra turns.
-
It says you can challenge, but with the dictionary right there, it's kind of moot.
-
Lol
Polycox is a word.
Yesterday I polycoxed in my pants. It was embarassing.
-
Your turn. Has Seph dropped out of the other game? I expected to see that he had played while I was gone.
-S
-
Seph told me he has the letters to spell archstole.
-
lol i had no idea i was involved in this, what do i do? lol
-
oh ok my old email is listed there, i played my turn
you know, it would be cooler to play literati in real time on yahoo games
-
I don't know literati.
-
literati is scrabble, they just cant call it that for copyright infringement, heh
-
What's wrong with the one we're using?
-
well in that one, we play in realtime. its a java or flash type deal, no waitin for emails to go back and forth
-
I much prefer this back and forth email approach. It's like chess by mail and allows me to play my turn when I'm ready, without having to dedicate a vast amount of time to a full game at once.
-
Yep, in a real office, can't sit there and play a java game. This one was chosen because we can play when we have the chance.
-
I like this one too. If I were at home real time would be great, but as it is, my turn could be delayed for a half hour or even longer if something comes up.
And we're waiting for Seph to play again. This game could take the rest of the year at this rate. ;)
-S
-
Dude...
teuqrap?
-
Parquet!
Dammit.
-
Why did that word get removed from the board? Backwards is okay right?
Edit: just got the challenge notice. What happens now?
-S
-
muhahaha , PLIM !
-
Why did that word get removed from the board? Backwards is okay right?
Edit: just got the challenge notice. What happens now?
My bad... try putting it back.
-
Says I can't play because it's your turn. I think I saw a link to skip a turn. Provided there's no penalty to do that you can skip and we'll be back where we were before I took a teuqrap all over the board. :)
-S
-
Took my turn before I saw that, but I can skip my next turn to balance it.
-
im confused, lol
-
This is the two player game that Chad and I are playing, not the three player game that you're playing with us. No problems in that one, Chad just got a little itchy on the challenge trigger finger. ;)
-S
-
Reversed parquet is back in play.
Hey it's a scrabble poem. :)
-S
-
play our game!
-
It's been your turn for at least the last half hour. My last move was "DYKING".
-S
-
What a muff diving word.
-
ugh this email sucks, next game we gotta use my gmail. i never use my comcast it takes forever to update
-
So just bookmark the board and refresh every so often.
-
I leave both boards open in another tab & refresh every now & then.
-S
-
pwned, 27 pts
-
And Seph takes the lead. :D
-S
-
I suck, I can't keep the board on my screen long enough to come up with good words.
-
lol chad with the word "BUNT"
-
I had a C, couldn't find a place to fit it.
-
if someone can spell Galaxian you should instant win, lol
-
Before I get challenged again, my latest "titled" is also backward.
-S
-
woot, im in the lead
-
OMFG you guys are gonna get destroyed on my next move
-
chad stop doing work, i need to unleash this word of power
-
You guys could all move in together and play when you get home. :laugh:
Must really be bored at the workplace. ;D
-
tommy, we would have asked you to play, but the tiles taste bad and you can't leave scrotum marks on the board.
-
that would be sweet, chad would be the stereotypical buff guy, i could be the musician / ladies man, stingray would be the one all the jokes are about. i smell a sitcom
-
No triple word score for seph.
-
omg u suck, my word was gonna be about 80 pts
-
That's why I took the triple word score, doink.
-
stingray stop pretending to work
-
I'd never pretend to work. I was out having lunch. ;)
Just played in both games.
-S
-
ok this is messed up, i made a word by accident with a letter i didnt have, but it gave me the points anyway, i tried pressing reset play but it doesnt do anything. but the word isnt on the board. and now its still my turn
-
well calculating what my score should be, im actually at 82
-
That's one screwed up looking board!
-S
-
QUE is in the dictionary, or I would have challenged it.
-
yeah thats what it is, spelled it backwards =)
-
You were trying for an EVERQUEST.
-
I've got nothing but one point letters :(
-S
-
sweet, im at 109 (my current score is -31 due to that bug)
-
This is like watching someone play Chess-by-mail. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
-
It's got to be more fun than it looks. :)
-S
-
Anyone spelled any rude words?
-
Chad would challenge. He's like that. ;)
-S
-
i think the worst word we have is semen, lol
-
I'm proud to say that was my first move.
-S
-
Some of these words suck. Jo? Waught?
-
Waught (A large draught of any liquid) was mine. I don't know where JO came from. I think that was Sephs. It's the abbreviation for his favorite six minute hobby. ;)
-S
-
i like honer, lol
-
This is the best way to waste a Friday that we've come up with yet. Well done, Chad!
-S
-
yeah really, this rules
-
Except Chad seems to be doing some actual work at the moment. Both games are waiting for him. :(
-S
-
stingray! gogogo
-
the suspense is killing me!
-
"You have scored a total of 35 points, for the word(s)
WAP (24), PHONER (11) "
the crowd goes wild!!!
-
I'm getting my tushie handed to me in the three player game.
-S
-
ClubNinja is making me look illiterate in another game.
-
Does that make you illiterati?
-S
-
---meecrob---' !
-
I have three letters left in both games and they are all vowels. I'll try to play one more time.
-S
-
Vowels are easy to get rid of...
..open up and say aa...
..bend over and say oo...
-
even if chad drops his Z on a triple letter i think i got this game
-
I played once and it looks like I can probably play again.
-S
-
WHAM z on the double word score.
-
Ha eat that last E.
-
I won the two player game, but see no way around the fact that I'm in dead last in the three player.

========Start of Game========
-S
-
Let's keep talking in this one, but have a Scrabble results thread.
-
I'm only here for about an hour, but we can try to get another game going. What's the max number of players? Four? Anyone else wanna play?
-S
-
Set up a game with four people, worst that will happen is the person doesn't play right away.
I think if a game gets no plays in 48 hours it gets reaped.
-
Don't we need an email address for that fourth player?
-S
-
chad, ur turn =p
-
Dude, ii?
How could you think that's a word?
-
CHALLANGE!
-S
-
I let it go, the game is pretty much over. It was like a 4 point turn.
-
look it up, ii is a word apparently
-
Yeah, but doesn't his score already reflect like 20 extra points he got when he made an invalid move?
-S
-
yeah i stated that before, my shown score, is really -31
-
No, he thought it was invalid and got lucky.
I did look up ii, didn't match anything in the dictionaries.
-
look it up, ii is a word apparently
I'll be darned.
adj : being one more than one
Isn't that two?
-S
-
No, he thought it was invalid and got lucky.
I did look up ii, didn't match anything in the dictionaries.
no i really do have extra points, if you look at the log and add them up you will see
-
Hrm, so am I winning?
-
He's still ahead by 7 points.
-S
-
wait nevermind, i did just add up the log, that is my accurate score
-
In that case Chad got spanked and I got gang spanked.
-S
-
Stingray, play the new game already.
-
Sorry, didn't realise that it's already going.
-S
-
I still had tiles left in the three way game. Why did it end?
-
First one to run out causes the game to end and gets the points for the tiles everyone else has left.
-S
-
ah, thats dumb. i had about 12 pts left of words to make lol
-
Ah.
Started new three player game.
-
i probably wont be able to play much over the weekend
-
anyone starting a new game???
-
Dude, just start one and invite people.
-
I probably won't be online much over the weekend, but if I think about it, I'll pop in and play a couple times.
-S
-
Same here, so long as someone plays, the game will last the weekend.
-
Stingray is up. Taking a beating, too.
-
You're on hemp. :)
Not looking good for Stingray.
-S
-
Seph, stop posting and take your turn. :-X
-
I had a better word, but the one I used in combination with where I played it was too good to pass up. :)
-S
-
Heh.
-
Okay, hopefully it stays afloat until monday. Later.
-S
-
it didnt send me a link yet, u shoulda used my gmail
-
You didn't give it to us.
-
What a muff diving word.
I like muff diving.
-
well for next game, its drullo@gmail.com
-
I don't know what you guys are smoking. Backwards words are not allowed in Scrabble. The word can read top-to-bottom and left-to-right. That's all.
-
Who made you the rule arbiter of our games?
You're just the biter. Know your place.
-
Please refer to my title above my avatar.
-
You're just the biter.
BTW....what does this mean?
-
:-X
-
I hate that smiley.
-
I hate everything.
-
I don't.
-
I hate life this exact moment.
-
Not to worry the moment will pass
-
I hate running out of tokens
-
I never knew that backward words aren't allowed. I guess we're playing by the double-secret rules.
-S
-
WTF is a varix?
-
Look it up. ;)
-S
-
I get the feeling net scrabble is mostly a "who can find the best word with google" game now.
-
What can I say. If it looks like it might be a word, I check. :D
-S
-
Seph, take your turn.
-
Since he's playing sick today, I expect he's playing Everquest or one of those dancing games that he's so fond of instead of Scrabble. :)
-S
-
:angel:
-S
-
JAWA on the triple word score?
Yeah, that's coming off.
:police:
-
Somehow I thought that probably wouldn't fly.
But where would you be if you didn't try? You have to try. :)
-S
-
Too bad you didn't have a v.
-
Oh I see, you just wanted that spot. ;)
-S
-
Hey, I had a use for it. Anywhere else on the board I would have let jawa go in exchange for a future Anakin.
-
Given the loss of my JAWA, I'm taking pretty heavy damage here. Core breach is eminent.
-S
If I could only have slipped in a Battlestar Galactica reference there, I might have exploded from pure geekitude.
-
The current game isn't quite over, but I went ahead and started a new one anyway. Yes, I am that bored.
-S
-
Dude.
The board was completely empty.
And you misspelled your word.
-
Double damn. Now I can't fix it.
-S
-
I thought I might be able to go back as long as you hadn't played. Not so.
-S
-
The score wouldn't change, so leave it. No biggie.
-
That should teach me to pay closer attention to what I'm doing. It won't, but it should.
-S
-
im gettin owned by mission control in the 2 player game we have right now, i keep getting all 1 point letters, not much i can do =(
-
You can take your turn in the three player game.
-
That's the ame problam I was having in the last three player game. All I was getting was 1 point letters.
-S
-
lets get this 3 way action moving boys
(yeah i know, it sounds bad =p)
-
Don't look at me, it's Chad's turn.
-S
-
Is not.
-
;D
-S
-
wah nah nah, jack bandit
-
Woo HA, got you all in check.
-
eat peanuts bitches
-
One more letter and you have like a 100 point word there.
But it didn't happen.
-
nah woulda needed 2 letters, its impossible to reach 2 triple pointers unless theres already a letter on one of em
-
come on stingray............. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
-
Hey, I was off in photoshopland making my Mr. Do sig.
-SS
-
haha nice on
-
Chad it's been your turn for 18 hours now........
-
I, uh, have a really bad rack of tiles.
Yeah, that's it.
-
He must have all vowels.
-S
-
yeah that kept happenin to me vs missioncontrol, hes kickin my butt
-
Don't feel bad chad's kicking mine..
-
go chad!
-
I don't ever let the ladies come between me and my belt.
Say sadatay cause I'm okay.
-
damnit chad, you always mess up my pre planned moves
-
I don't think that even if I put all the tiles from my three games together I could come up with a good word :(
-
damnit chad, you always mess up my pre planned moves
I'm just that much faster.
It's like cockblocking. But without the cocks.
-
this game with missioncontrol is pretty intense
-
this game with missioncontrol is pretty intense
Mine too. His Scrabble Kung-Fu is mighty. :)
-S
-
I must be getting the short end of his fu.
-
Man I keep getting all the vowels in my game with stingray.
at one time I had 3 e's and two I's
-
E I E I oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
-
Man I keep getting all the vowels in my game with stingray.
at one time I had 3 e's and two I's
So that's why I'm not getting any vowels!
-S
-
gg mission, i thought it was hopeless in the beginning but i came back in the end somehow
-
that's the reason, but you are still coming up with better words......
good game Seph you got me by 4 points......
I couldn't get anything good in the end of the game
-
Seph comes back in the end with a last second reacharound.
-
i just type the craziest things in that dicionary checker on the bottom and i get a hit sometimes =)
-
I didn't use the checker. I should have...
-
i just type the craziest things in that dicionary checker on the bottom and i get a hit sometimes =)
Ditto, except I'm using the real dictionary on my desk.
-S
-
like really, WTF is a miriti??
-
in that case all the words I know have at least one vowel
I don't think RR is a word.....
-
i love the 2 letter words lol, RR, II, AR
-
I was kind of hoping I could get away with railroad. :)
-S
-
want to buy a vowel
