I haven't been playing much over the last few months. I've been at this site since 1998, and come and go in long "cycles" of about 12 to 18 months (barely played at all from 2002 to September 2003, played constantly until about December 2004, etc). Right now I'm on the "out" part of the cycle ;-)
Part of the reason is the realization that the top games can't really get any "better" at this point, which is kind of a bummer. heh. I do still check the boards frequently, though.
To the original poster, read the expert guide like BadPenny said, and all will be explained. It was written by a very good player... hehe ;-)
On an unrelated note, the 2,000,000th Scribble word will most likely be played sometime over the next week :-)
