Scrabble

Quick question.

We have Scrabble, but when we rotate the board, the letters move, I am sure you can get one where the lines which border the space where you put the letters in are raised and the letters do not move.

We have asked in a few stores, where of course the boxes are sealed, and no one seems to know which ones have the raised lines, anyone know and where did you got it?

You could try Travel Scrabble, where the letters are pinned to the board. I've not heard of the version you mention.

Tks, but I am sure there is a full size board like that.

Deluxe editions keep the tiles in place and usually have some sort of pivot/turntable built in to make turning it easier.

The current one feels cheaper and nastier than it looks in photos (shiny black plastic) but it does do what you want. Worth seeking out one of the older wooden ones ( like this) which are much nicer.

You need deluxe scrabble

Have you ever thought of playing scrabble and musical chairs at the same time?

Not since about 1961.

I once ate a bunch of scrabble letters.

It was most unnerving knowing my next st could spell disaster.

Using an actual board is so 20th century.

I once played METAZOAL on two triple word scores with the Z on a double-letter. True story.

I don't think we can allow the word 'snudda' under the current rules

It's just a made-up word.

Why are you rotating the board? Good Scrabble players will have no difficulty in reading upside down.

I hope that your infection was treated successfully.

It'd be a waste of an S, that's for sure.

There's an old photo of me where I look not unlike Moss. Unfortunately most of my friends have seen it too....
