barcalounger-

the puzzle and the word list have to take precedence over smack talkin', unfortunately. ;)

I am the first person ever to use the chat function...

jaywhyewe

either my knowledge of obscure words is very limited, or I am blind and cannot see the words clearly before my eyes. in any case, 1061 is mighty impressive
1:09 pm
scalder

How the hell can you get so many points? I'm not even at 300 yet!
1:18 pm
briane

theres a lot of common words, but some of the words it accepts are just crap. "roadeo" (sic) !!?? And it doesnt accept "eyot" which people do say round these parts... currently on 1414 but I'm giving up, the words just seem too arbitary.

harold_ikes

barca is a cheat and a liar.
1:55 pm
zyconium

hooray I am chatting too :D
1:56 pm
barcalounger

WISE GUY. why I oughtta...
2:02 pm
zyconium

2:14 pm
Dr_God

briane-

All words are checked against the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, so you'll need to take your fight to the Scrabble nerds. :)
2:22 pm
Yeti

Is there any way to view people's word lists in the Archives? It'd be very cool to see just what words were used to get some of those massive scores. Cool site, by the way. I'm addicted.

Zyconium, Im at work and still working you. :P

3:39 pm

seaellem

Dr_God,

you said all the words are checked against the official scrabble players dictionary.

what happens if they are found in dictionary.com and not the scrabble dictionary?

two examples:

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=vire
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=roon
3:53 pm
seaellem

ah, links don't work. sorry for the mess

roon and vire
5:08 pm
Dr_God

seaellem-

The words are only checked against the OSPD.
5:39 pm
jaywhyewe

does anyone know why "revolters" is not acceptable? i have checked the scrabble dictionary and it is listed (as plural).
5:42 pm
tommyslax

tooooo long jyu?
5:45 pm
jaywhyewe

but the rules include 9 letter words when explaining the scoring...
5:53 pm
Dr_God

I just found out that the OSPD doesn't have words over eight letters long. I'll work on finding another word list.
6:05 pm
zyconium

yes that revolters thing was annoying me too :(
6:36 pm
Dr_God

I have switched Babble from using the OSPD to the "Enable" dictionary. It has a lot more words, and most importantly, it has "revolters". ;)
6:36 pm
zyconium

wooo revolters!
7:34 pm
trhaynes

hey zycman and spectro - im stuck at 504 right now . . . frustrating but I'm addicted to this
7:43 pm
jaywhyewe

oh excellent. Dr_God bless revolters!
7:43 pm
zyconium

7:47 pm
zyconium

yeti.. that sounds slightly familiar :)
8:28 pm
Mr. Babble

How does this work?
8:30 pm
Mr. Babble

I'm boggled by babble.
9:40 pm
essej

i'm baffled by the 700+ scores. i'm way impressed.
9:48 pm
zyconium

lol I'm stuck at 890 roar where did you nerds get 1000+ this time
ack
gah .. blah!
10:13 pm
Dr_God

New feature alert!

I've added the ability to view everyone's word lists after a puzzle closes. Go to the puzzle archive, and click on a name in the high score list. Voilą!

Now you can see exactly what words the Babblers ahead of you on the high scores list found that you didn't. ;)
11:06 pm
Spectra

stuck on 1029 :S
11:11 pm
Pooh

Can't get past 826 . . . I am really pathetic tonight.

11:25 pm
Pooh

Somebody give me a high scoring word, quick - I won't tell anyone ! :)
