    @haftoplay is correct. I know there are times that i fail to run up scores when i could because i know it is disheartening but when that is the case (not so much these days) i try not to be obvious. Right now i am playing someone who has slammed me four straight games, is working to do so on a fifth game, and i do not find myself wanting to play her. :-)

    @jrp32 Over the past several weeks people have been noticing little "tweaks" like this added to the New Lexulous... sometimes it takes a while to figure out how everything works in here. Dan Mitchell (whatever his player name is) has been one of the helpful ones! That score predictor (which Dan calls tooltip) feels like it appeared, I don't know, a couple of months ago?

    Yes!! I have this same problem too! I think it is the exact same players who play via the app who can join games and get in without the host's consent. I happened to try and look up the head to head stats with someone I play against a lot, and there was no head to head. This is also a player who, when they click on my posted game, the game starts immediately without me agreeing to start it. I had a hunch that this might be a pattern, and sure enough... all of the players who can join my game without the 'game accept' box appearing have no head to head history vs. me. I'm sure we are not alone with this issue. ☮

    @colin-devavaram-fletcher Admin is correct. V2 is the newer version of the site and the two pro options can be found at https://www.lexulous.com/v2/settings/index. They're one off payments as well and valid for a year which is nice. You therefore don't have to worry about canceling them.

    @mapmakere generally you are not censored. I censor or uncensor at will but I have enough experience with you to know better than pay attn to most of what you say because it always turns into snark from you, or, you choose to kept correcting or one upping.as it does in the posts

    @betterlate1-0 True. The classic ticking countdown sound from flash version was less harsh and annoying. This new one seems to kick in at odd times and doesn't even do a proper countdown that's in sync with the seconds remaining. They need to balance all this stuff.

    @mapmakere good. No word from the admins yet, so I'll take it as a highly unlikely occurrence and just keep on doing what I do in the background.

    @aladdin-sane I agree with Guy, make a new account for the new site. Your rating will fluctuate for a few games, then settle down and average out to reflect your general level. https://www.lexulous.com/v2/ also has some cool new stats and graphs under 'my stats' that allow you to track your progress, monitor your improvement and such, so all that new stuff would be nicely in sync with your new account. BTW, not sure if you play on website, app, FB etc. I've never seen a 'reset stats' option on the website (where I play). Perhaps that's an option elsewhere, otherwise you'd need to contact admins and ask them to possibly do that for your account. But like I said, a new account/username would be easier. You can still use a regular email and chosen username to sign up, but there are also options to sign in via FB and even Google now.

    @mapmakere Gotcha. I'd assume that should be a full censor though whereby they can't join your game. Let's hope they fix that.

    @dan-mitchell yes!! Or people who just join your table and dont make a move on purpose to be rude. They know the game will be deleted, so no rating points lost. Some people must find that humorous.
