Feature Requests

@anexparrot I have been accused of that myself, actually. But I don't consider it an "easy win," because to win consistently on a short clock you have to stay on your toes. I have LOST games like that to the clock as often as I have won them. It just happens to be the style of game I prefer.

@dan-mitchell My mistake; sorry!

@blevie1 Thank you for sharing this. We will pass your suggestion to the development team for consideration.

@whtever-0 I use a computer and only a computer. It's the only way to quickly place tiles using the keyboard in timed games. (just saying 🙂 )

@mistertoad Thank you for sharing this. We will pass your suggestion to the development team for consideration.

Well, I guess so. The "Play" box is red; the strength slider indicates what the word's strength would be if the word were actually valid. So there is no conflict.
thanks,
bill

@sparks said in Chat box:

Are they too busy copy pasting from Wikipedia?

Indubitably.

@mapmakere Yep, and guess what? They fixed the cursor issue already!

Thank you @lexulous, @sakamvari and the development team.

@mistertoad said in Staff? Who?:

Please can we either have a list of staff nicknames on the site or have them highlighted (or a coloured background)? I get confused with not knowing if replies are authoritive or not.

I regret your confusion. Perhaps the best you can do is simply give up on the idea of getting any authoritative replies here.

I wrote (July 21 and 23):

The square numbers are smaller in the new layout. Why? Was anyone complaining about their size in the old one? I wasn't. The new ones look spindly, like the tile letters themselves.

Why did you change 𝘢𝘯𝘺 of the typography when there wasn't anything wrong with it and people liked it the way it was?

I withdraw my prior criticism of the tile typography. I've gotten used to the new letter style and now prefer it. I guess I was just used to the way it was before and resistant to what seemed to be unnecessary change.

I'm still complaining about the dull gray star, however, and the ugly black arrow. The prior star and arrow should be restored. The arrow should also work as before, of course. Also, the Define box should be green rather than the present dull dark gray, and as I've observed before, the return key should trigger Define when the text cursor is in the "Type a word here" field.

1 - As a 'Feature Request' I ask for the creation of a new thread to accommodate the travelogue posts.

This assumes that all these "Hello" posts are indeed from Lexulous staff. Please can someone tell us if this is so?

2 - Posts by Lexulous staff should contain the word 'STAFF'. Here's an example:

@dan-mitchell said in select and save chats, allow live links in chats.:

It's another minor frustration and change for the worse (like the arrow timeout thing etc) but they all add up. I wonder how many of these suggestions are actually getting passed on, let alone acted upon.

This sounds somehow familiar.

@latiflorus

This is the same as what I've been saying – see my comments on "Transient Arrow".
