Ygerna Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Does anyone else play Scrabble on FB? Its quite addictive. My and hubby usually have a game in the evening, though I am CERTAIN he cheats as I have never won yet. I am actually thinking of buying the board game for family evenings.

Cinnamon Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Just rack 'em up then - I play with strangers most of the time.Had a couple of dodgy experiences, but nothing the delete button couldn't handle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I started a game with a stranger but she's not played for 2 days . Could it be 'cos I was beating her ? I sometimes look at their photos and if they look semi-normal try to click "play" but I'm always too slow . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 You can 'force forfeit' them - how do you think I got my percentage so high? You need to just click on them straight away - if you decide you don't like the look of them, or if they do something horrid like BINGO you on the first move, you can cancel the game , as its not a legit game until both player have moved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 me and my boyfriend stopped playing the board game, we are too different to play!!!! I play to think of the most clever words, and he just puts really short words like HOME and S's on the end of things and clobbers me. I end up being put off by how unintellectual-like he is by the end of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 What's a BINGO move ? Jess, I hate playing Scrabble with my OH for that very reason. He also takes hours and hours to put his word down . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 A Scrabble "bingo" is when you use all 7 letters in your rack. If you score a bingo, you get the point value of the letters in the word plus 50 bonus points. Therefore, it is highly desirable to score a bingo any time you can. Tournament level Scrabble players build much of their Scrabble strategy around scoring bingos. The player will hold on to a blank tiles with the hopes of scoring a bingo, while playing rare letters for low scores. Competitive SCRABBLE players might score three bingos per game, while beginners are quite lucky to score one bingo. I didn't know either, I had to google it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Humph . Just played a game with some random woman and somehow I skipped (I'm sure I didn't ) then a forced forfeit appeared (again I'm sure I didn't ). Not playing her again .
