I am not a great Scribble player, but I’ve been around, on and off, for a long time.  This particular “troll” is smarter than the trolls that used to haunt the boards.  Trolls in the past would just play whatever word came into their head wherever they wanted.  This one, if you watch, usually plays the “sis,” “ieee,” “ulu” and the rest of their repertoire very precisely, knowing that there is no way in hell anyone can play a word off their play.  They are using up the “s’s” and “u’s” to force the good players into finding 7-letter words that don’t end in “s” and to find other ways to use the Q.  I will try very hard to find words to play off the troll’s plays, just to let the troll know that they need to bury their plays a little deeper so they can’t be used at all.
