Here's who was logged into game 13 just now: crawl-66-249-65-3.googlebot.com.

If it's indexing the site, someone is going to get some really bad search results.
1561 pts

Today, I played a game with a personal high of 1561.  I know this is a very low score for some of you but is a big accomplishment for me.  It was not long ago that I would completely hose up a game after only a few plays. It shows that there is hope for me yet!  ;-))
Using my tas1

I was scrolling down game 14 on Sunday,March 4 and noticed someone had used tas1 entering the word tree on a trip and I hadn't even played in the game! Has anyone else had this problem? Guess I'm just going to go in as a guest for awhile. Hope you guys knew that wasn't me.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoy Scribble.  My hope is to make the best word/score that I can whenever I play, and I wish that I could learn more of the more unusual words that I see played.  Too often I don't remember them.  So far my personal best used two triple word scores and netted around 200, so that's kiknd of thing I'm aiming for whenever I can.  
forgive my slow or stupid plays, I try to do the best I can.
Updating word list

I see Tom still reads some of these and hasn't left the site on autopilot.

The How to Play section says that the site uses the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, 3rd ed. It's not news to most of us that that's not all it uses. The names of all the countries of the world seem to be good, for example, and abbreviations like tv.

So how much work would it be to get the new words from the 4th ed. added? I have gotten used to QI and ZA now and miss them here. Also, O to go with A and I.
Another "For Old Times Sake" Game :)

Scribble/Trolls

I don't know about you guys but I'm so tired of trolls messing up the games.I'm trying to learn and I know I make a lot of mistakes, but not on purpose. I appreciate the support that you have given me.What do you do when they are playing?Do the best you can with what you have or try to stop them? Or do as they do? Thanks, for listening just upset I guess.I know some of you are not playing as much and I don't blame you.
can't end the game.....

"uncaught exception..." is showing on game 1 - so quite probably it's another overloaded cache problem coming up on any on last letters scenario
scribble

I have been playing scribble for approximately 8 years.  In the last year or so I have quit because of the trolls.  It is to frustrating for me to play as I watch the setups destroyed.  For this level of play, I can play scrabble at home with my 9 year old.
