I hate when people do that shit, its so obvious too. Raj, quay (ok that was me, I thought it looked like it might be a word...and it was!), and other words I can't even remember because they probably weren't english. Maybe they are just trying to improve my vocabulary, too bad I don't look most of these words up.
Anyways I am Sylem if anyone wants to play.
I play quay all the time. in the navy we have quay walls!

lox is smoked salmon. military speak doesn't work since it is abbreviations which are not cool
Yeah if acroynms were allowed id win like all the fucking time =D
For me it's concepts or items from other cultures. I was annoyed when I couldn't used "tachi" or other medieval era weapons from around the world. And apparently the dictionary used uses only some romanizations of Chinese words given that it wouldn't take "chi" but would take "qi."
I remember someone played "qant" against me. The fuck is "qant"?
You sure it wasn't QAT? QAT is one of the all-important q words that don't require a u (along with QI, QAID, QADI, and QOPH). SUQ is an equally useful 3 letter q word since it begins with an s, making it much more playable.
Anyway, qant isn't legal with the current word list. Or the previous one. Not sure if there was some third list in use further back or not.
Is this game horrible for battery life? What makes it so bad?
I'm on a G1, which has terrible battery life period. Using just about any application drains the battery quickly (as does wifi, or leaving GPS enabled, or...).
I just got an epic 4g and I love me some scrabble, so I guess I'm down for this thing here. Do I set up a username or what?
Yeah, you can sign up for an account in the app itself, then post here with your account name and you can start playing against people that don't use anagram generators to play their turns.

So I started using a word generator...but not like that.
I will play my word and then look at the generator to see what I could have played for more points, its pretty interesting to see how bad I am compared to these robots.

I'm considering getting in on this action but want to check in on the typical pace of game that's expected. Sounds like many others here are like me and are in an office with a "job" they're playing around. I can get interrupted from time to time and may take some time between turns. Would that make me No Fun At All To Play With?
if theres pressure to get on with games then maybe im not going to be the best to play with. i doubt im gonna be checking this thing every couple minutes or whatever...
This game I'm playing with elin fucking sucks. I play "tee" because I have 3 I's and 2 E's, and I draw two more fucking E's to replace the two I just played! Then I swap 2 I's and an E out and get two of the I's back! Gah, fuck you! :x Though, against elin, I suppose it doesn't really matter :P.

I've run several games where it takes several hours to a day between turns. It's not a problem since you're not limited to only one or two concurrent games. If one game is too slow you or they can always start another while waiting for a response.
What is proper end game etiquette? Down 100 points with only OOOOOOO and 10 tiles, its okay to resign right?
Also the tiles I had earlier were

I played gILT and recieved...OOI

For those asking about speed/pace, it's normal for games to last for days, even over a week. For as much as I talk about taking my turns quickly, I don't expect my opponents to. And I do work, and have a wife who does occasionally demand undivided attention, so I take plenty of breaks between words as well

Yeah, I beat colawars the first time around but I think he was just going easy on me. I feel like I've been raped right through my pants on our current game. There was a time when all I had was 3 Is, 2Es, a U and a Z and he plays HOSTAGE on two triple word spaces.

I've added a few peeps from the op and have around 15 games going. If any of you want to add me, username is forum name.
My friend IRL is not on the boards, but he's good. Add him if you like a challenge: tennisnutzo
So your first word in this, my first game against a forumer, is worth 84 points.
I'm going to get schooled hard around here I think.
That's because we're playing on a random board. If you'd rather play on a normal board, I'm fine with that. Random boards can give out whacked points, especially in the first few rounds. I'm a pretty mediocre player, really... Luck is in the letters given.

Once again, I think luck is the factor here. I'm not a great player by any means. I wasn't taking it easy on you at all, I just play what I can. I'm still learning the strategy behind this game, but if I happen to get (or see) a massive score play, I'll mention it in the (awesome) in-game chat.
Elindreada? Eee gads...that's one to watch out for. I can't wait to squish her like a little bug.
yeah I just played jane other then being a girls name what the hell does it mean?
and yeah I sometimes play a lot of odd random words but I use the Gabe method of placing random tiles until they stick. but what else can you when your stuck with a hand full of vowels?
I'm also a terrible speller I thought vowels was spelled with a u:?
Heh, just be glad you're not the other guy. As in, the guy from the game where I played STRANDER for something like 68 points and then my next word was THINNERS on two triple word scores using that s from STRANDER for 148 points. My new Wordfeud high for a single word
Just picked this up. Anyone care to play, or more accurately, wipe the floor with my behind from across the world? Username is same as here: 'strebalicious'.

This game destroys my battery. Had to start brining my charger to work every night.

Great, I can generally play much faster than that. PM sent to OP.
Thanks!

I played zein against you right? I kept trying z words until that one worked :P
I was about to post how aboslutley screwed I am in the letters I got and then what they were replaced with...

Greg has the absolute worst luck against me. Either that, or I have the best luck against him. Probably some of both.
Third turn of the the rematch? INVADES with the v and d both doubled and the entire word doubled twice for 114 points.
Bonus tile spacing in this game remains absurd.
