Apologies to all concerned for posting about my suspicions. As Pangloss says, apparently the site was not hacked.

Hi Scanny! Miss ya!

@pangloss said in Live game:

When I'm playing on my Android phone using the app and I join a live game, my opponent has three full minutes to play. If the opponent is not there and will never play that means I literally have to stare at my phone for 3 minutes hoping that he's going to play. I think this should be paired down to about 2 minutes, at least that will be a little less wasted time

A better idea would be to have the initial play timeout be a ratio of the total game length. Even a 2 minute timeout will annoy some players I bet.

This might be less necessary if they fixed the bug where app players can join any game without the host accepting them.

(PART 2) of what @mistertoad said in Scrabble dictionary adds hundreds of words - November 16, 2022:

Zonkey joins zedonk among new words using a Z (10 points). The difference between those two wacky-sounding animals, you ask? A zonkey is sired from a male zebra and a female donkey. The parentage of a zedonk is the other way around. Zedonk even has a playable variation: zeedonk.

Zoomer, for a member of GenZ, is also new. Familiar with the Middle Eastern spice blend za’atar? A less common variant, zaatar, is now in the Scrabble dictionary. Words with apostrophes aren’t allowed.

And there’s more where all of that came from:

Oppo, jedi, adorbs, dox variant doxxed, eggcorn (a misheard slip of the ear), fintech, folx (inclusive alternative to folks), grawlix, hangry, matcha, onesie, spork, swole, unmalted, vaquita, vax and vaxxed were added.

Yes, jedi need not be capitalized. Wondering what grawlix means? It’s this: $%!(asterisk)#, a series of typographical symbols used to replace words one doesn’t want to write, usually those that got you into trouble as a kid.

Among other new eight-letter words, the kind that help players clear their seven-tile racks for 50 extra points: hogsbane, more commonly known as giant hogweed. Another: pranayam, a breath technique in yoga.

Your essay is well-written and engaging, with excellent substance. I've read a lot of posts, but yours is one of the most memorable; thank you for sharing it.

@lexulous nice thinking

@dan that happens to me a lot - usually a player with a super low rating so I delete the game. Little did I know deleting games is a big no-no (whether you have a good reason or not). Now I'm penalized and cannot host games.

@pangloss computer, hate the phone.

If they're not going to add a basic option to disable it (such as they did for sounds, numbered board etc), then they should save the confetti graphics for when you, and you alone, have actually won the game. Bingos aren't uncommon or particularly special, so I'd rather not have a party in my face every time I get one. And why should it also appear when our opponent gets one? It's their bingo, so let them experience the confetti if they want, but not the person who's just conceded one.

Perhaps this is why my account was suddenly disabled. The developer who added it was like 'You don't like my new confetti animation? You have the audacity to complain about it in the forum? Well, now you no longer have to experience it; bye-bye!'.
