I'm still waiting for Shamm to make his 2nd play on a game HE started with me!Lavabe wrote:So my first games I start off over here, on the opening rounds:
wilson: Has the decency to invite me to a game that he starts off with a bingo. GEEE... with friends like THAT. ;)
BD: So I invite her as I waste away some letters on my opening round. She opens up with a bingo.
I am awaiting a bingo from an opening round with SHAMM.
UGH!

I did not get an opening round bingo from SHAMM. Playing catch up with BD and wilson is horrible.DevilAlumna wrote:I'm still waiting for Shamm to make his 2nd play on a game HE started with me!Lavabe wrote:So my first games I start off over here, on the opening rounds:

In all fairness to shamm, I once invited him to a game in which I led off with a bingo, so I was okay if he started off with a bingo against me.
BD, wilson, shamm: Turns out that we could have played while I was in Madagascar... if we had used the version that wasn't limited to the US & Canada.

Shamm doesn't like playing catch up. ;)Lavabe wrote:Playing catch up with wilson is horrible.

The secret to beating Shamm is coming up with a raunchy word before he uses it. It throws off his concentration.

Re: Root for ME!!!! (To Beat wilson in Scrabble)
I am in two games with BD, one game with wilson, and one game with Shamm.
No word from Shamm in a long time.
What has happened to the Emir of Acworth?

I'm like the Tiger Woods of Scrabble (yeah, I said it). Let me get a good lead and you can pretty much forget about it, unless you get a fortuitous bingo.Lavabe wrote:Playing catch up with wilson is horrible.

The karma police have visited me, after beating wilson once, my Scrabble skills have gone into the toilet.

I didn't say that right. That question mark must be leftover from 'Lost'.Bostondevil wrote:Lavabe has taught me that suq is an acceptable Scrabble word? Well, I do now!

Re: Root for ME!!!! (To Beat wilson in Scrabble)
Heh. I wish. A suq is a Middle Eastern market (it may have specifically Islamic connotations, but I don't think so). "Sukh" is also an acceptable spelling.Lavabe wrote:So is SUQS.Bostondevil wrote:Lavabe has taught me that suq is an acceptable Scrabble word? Well, I do now!

Oh man... that's bad news. I pulled the same yesterday, beating her by 5 pts on my last play, coming back after BD's INCREDIBLE back-to-back bingoes in the 8th inning.wilson wrote:...and wilson registers another scintillating last-second victory!!!

BD can be one tough opponent.
