«Michael (foof) Maki» ...can't you just cash in some of those Krugerands you have lying about the house? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:14am) «Rob Balder» Well I wouldn't say that about my Cougar. But when it breaks they come and fix it for free and give me another car (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:14am) «Rob Balder» They turned out to be Sacajewia dollars, sadly (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:15am) «Rob Balder» And her name wasn't even spelled right so they're worthless. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:16am) «Michael (foof) Maki» heh (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:16am) «Rob Balder» If you can't play it in Scrabble, I don't care how it's spelled (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:17am) «Michael (foof) Maki» ...wouldn't *that* be a disturbing trend. Heh. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:18am) «Rob Balder» I had a 140-point word in Scrabble last night. STRANDED over two triple words (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:18am) «Michael (foof) Maki» I don't think her tribe has a written language...how *do* you decide the "correct" spelling in a case like that? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:18am) «Rob Balder» Whatever the US Government puts on the coin I guess. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:20am) «Michael (foof) Maki» 140? Jebus. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:22am) «Michael (foof) Maki» See, it *is* spelt correctly, then! (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:22am) «lawrence» wait a minute... only 140? did you use blanks? (D is worth 2, right?) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:23am) «Rob Balder» Yeah there was one blank in there (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:23am) «Rob Balder» StRANDED (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:24am) «lawrence» ah. so like.... 10 points for the word itself... that's funny. (but long words tend to be with mostly 1-pointers...) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:24am) «lawrence» which is proof, really, that in scrabble it's *all* about placement. :) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:24am) «Rob Balder» I also bingoed in the same game with CARNIES. Scored 547 points in the game. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:25am) «lawrence» good lord. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:25am) «Rob Balder» Karen was most annoyed (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:25am) «lawrence» that's like.... more than I usually see combined between 2 players... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:25am) «Rob Balder» Heheh it's not my record, though. I once played a 302-point word. :) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:26am) «lawrence» wow! (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:26am) «lawrence» what was it? something across two triple-words with a big point letter on the double letter score between them? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:26am) «Rob Balder» Someone left an R next to the top left triple and I played CROQUEtS with the Q on the double letter (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:27am) «lawrence» yeah, that'll do it. that Q alone was worth 180 points... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:27am) «Karen is tired» Oh wuit bragging Balder! :P (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:27am) «Karen is tired» quit (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:28am) «Rob Balder» Yep. My opponent was floored. Heheh there's my sweetie, the good sport. :* (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:28am) «Michael (foof) Maki» I dind't know you could pluralize croquet. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:28am) «Karen is tired» Whatever! (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:28am) «lawrence» well, Michael, technically you can do anything in scrabble as long as your opponent doesn't challenge it. :) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:28am) «Rob Balder» Present participle actually. "He usually croquets before taking tea." (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:28am) «Michael (foof) Maki» aha (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:29am) «Rob Balder» Mine did challenge and the OSPD accepted CROQUETS (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:29am) «Michael (foof) Maki» verbing is dirty pool. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:29am) «Michael (foof) Maki» Hi, Karen! I am no good at Scrabble... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:29am) «Somepeople» Or, "I love well-made salmon croquets!"... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Michael (foof) Maki» <grumble> I've taken issue with the OSPD before... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «lawrence» oh, cool. yeah, I just looked it up. it's a transitive verb apparently. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Michael (foof) Maki» Neal: Good point. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Rob Balder» Yeah I think that's acceptable too Neal (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Somepeople» The OSPD is a whore of a dictionary... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «lawrence» my main gripe with the OSPD is that it doesn't have any natural words longer than 8 letters... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Karen is tired» Hi, Michael! I just don't like playing with Rob. (J/K) He doesn't play nice! (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «lawrence» technically, I can't make the word "accordion" in scrabble because it isn't in the OSPD. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Rob Balder» Heheh I know. It was worth every xu I paid for mine. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Somepeople» Wow... so many Fruheads to challenge at Scrabble... and I've just been beating Lux all this time. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:31am) «Rob Balder» I do too play nice. I just play to win. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:31am) «Karen is tired» No your're a BRAT! (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:31am) «Rob Balder» Last week I had two consecutive games with 3 bingoes each. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «Misch» the OSPD isn't complete. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «lawrence» damn, they must have gone fast... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «Michael (foof) Maki» Karen: <nods> I don't think strategically enough, and always lose to point-whores. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «Karen is tired» I can't use the other word on the wall. :D (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «Rob Balder» I'd call me a brat, too. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «Michael (foof) Maki» /me looks at Rob. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:32am) «Somepeople» Three bingoes _each_? Phew. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «Rob Balder» Oops gotta run (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «Karen is tired» Michael: I guess I do too. So, I guess it's you and me. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «lawrence» heh, Michael - you could play like my grandmother.... never *ever* open a triple word score under any circumstances, even if you're scoring 50 points for it.... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «Somepeople» I think I managed two _once_. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «Karen is tired» Bye (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «lawrence» she is the most defensive player I know... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:33am) «Somepeople» That's my style of play. :-) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:34am) «Michael (foof) Maki» Lawrence: It's better for my blood pressure to just avoid Scrabble altogether. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:34am) «lawrence» my personal rule is that if I can put a big letter on a bonus square or use all my letters I'll open just about anything... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:34am) «Karen is tired» I kept getting the worst rack of tiles last night it was so painful. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:35am) «Somepeople» Do y'all play at games.com? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:36am) «lawrence» yeah, that's always frustrating... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:36am) «Karen is tired» I don't (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:36am) «lawrence» /me has his own set... got it from my parents when my mom won a new one by being on the radio. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:36am) «lawrence» I've never played online scrabble, actually. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:36am) «Karen is tired» I usually just play with Rob. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:37am) «lawrence» I've seen the Yahoo one, and it looked.... wrong.... like all the point values are screwed up. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:37am) «Misch» Copyright laws. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:37am) «Somepeople» Games.com has the real, licensed version. In Java. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:38am) «Somepeople» With rankings. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:38am) «lawrence» oooooh. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:39am) «Somepeople» Yup. We should have a game sometime... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:41am) «Michael (foof) Maki» it's multi-player? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:42am) «Somepeople» Yep. Up to four. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:42am) «Michael (foof) Maki» too cool. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:42am) «lawrence» /me is signing up for a games.com account right now. :) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:43am) «Somepeople» The only problem is that you have to be quick to stop other people from jumping on your "table." (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:43am) «lawrence» you can't set up a private table? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:44am) «Somepeople» No. :-( But you can put a message on their little wall that you don't want other people to jump on your game. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:45am) «lawrence» ah. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:45am) «lawrence» can you kick someone out if they join uninvited? or if someone comes in are you stuck with them? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:45am) «Somepeople» The CD-ROM multiplayer-over-net setup on zone.com does let you set up private tables. But everyone needs the CD, and it's only full-screen mode. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:45am) «Somepeople» You can just quit the game. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:46am) «lawrence» oh. heh. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:46am) «Somepeople» There's a "wall" on every table. You can usually explain to the other person, then "vote not to rate the game"... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:46am) «lawrence» doesn't that make it very difficult to have a 2 player game, though? (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:46am) «Somepeople» You just have to coordinate with your friend to jump on the table quickly. And put a bunch of strongly-worded messages on the scrabble "wall"... (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:47am) «lawrence» oh. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:48am) «Somepeople» It's not perfect, but it's free. (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:48am) «lawrence» you get what you pay for. :) (Apr 6, 2001 @ 11:48am) « Previous 100 entries | Next 100 entries »
