Last night I pulled off a miraculous win! My buddy had gotten a Bingo for 50 extra points (he used all of his 7 tiles).
But I added to the word ‘fist’ and came back with the word ‘squid’ on a triple and double square for the letter ‘q’ for 73 points! I think that was one of the highest word scores I’ve ever had.
Aahh, chess and scrabble…my 2 favorite board games!
I can play chess but not so good. I do like games like monopoly though. Backgammon isn’t so bad and I wasn’t the worst player. Never played much scrabble which is odd for an English major.
I was just playing wwf. I love scrabble. No one will play with me. I take it too seriously and I always win by lots. I’m always after the 7 letter words. fisting a squid for the win was defo a good one.
@anon39054230 I’ve not played scrabble for quite a few years. I played for a while at https://www.isc.ro/. I stopped when someone wanted to get chatty… That often involves what job you do,which if you haven’t had one is awkward. I’m very much a play for fun person rather than ultra competitive as some players are. I’m not into obsessively looking for words in order to get mind bogglingly high scores.
I’m a near die hard backgammon player. My old therapist and I used to play. Now I found two cool backgammon servers and a group south of me that hosts online backgammon tournaments every Thursday night. Yay!
