Scrabble

Recently I added Sophia’s junior from UPM ie. Allan in FB so that we can play Scrabble.


We started playing two games on 4 February 2010 and both games concluded two nights ago.


First Game


Allan started the game with the word ease 8 points


His 4th word was kazoo 37 points


His 7th word was platoon (bingo) 84 points (Pretty good for a first-timer)


My 7th word was yow 32 points


His 11th word was xi 40 points


My 11th word was hernias (bingo) 69 points


My 12th word was gaily 47 points


His 13th word was carps 35 points


In the end Allan scored 407 points, 24 points more than me.


Well done Allan.



Second Game


I started the game with the word wind 16 points


Allan’s 3rd word encave 33 points


His 4th word axe 39 points


My 6th word was gnow 30 points


His 6th word was syen 39 points


My 10th word was quads 37 points


His 11th word was matilda (bingo) 67 points


My 12th word was riz 32 points


My 13th word was gooly/ky 34 points


In the end I won by only 7 points.


Both games were extremely nailbiting at the end.

haha...scrabble, nailbiting? Who would have thunk?

btw, i may be a first timer in fb scrabble but i sort of grew up with the traditional game!

Great to see how technology has made scrabble so accessible to all now! and we dun even need to count the points manually! :-p

Thanks to my UK cousin for introducing me to FB and then FB Scrabble. Technology is indeed marvelous. I would never have thought that I could play with them online.

First time for you after a long hiatus.

Before the online game, I never thought of a word can be on top of another word and especially the list of two letter words. Did you know about these?

The greatest nailbiter so far was not a draw but winning or losing by 1 point.
