@dan-mitchell
I agree completely and have consistently favored "Score strength", though I may continue to informally refer to the thing itself as the score thermometer. We could use some upvotes on this, though God knows what might prevail against the [...] of [...].

@sparks Histrionic? You're not that old!

@rayger
It's okay, glad you got it!

@sparks I love Stephen Fry's reading voice...his writing gets tiresome after an overdose of it tho.

Six hours later, still not fixed. The same thing has been handled before, so they know how to do it – it's apparently just that no one is minding the store. Here's Lexulous on Google Chrome:

The game doesn't work at all, but the three Grammarly ads are just fine.

@dan-mitchell
You're right: I guess a reported bug may be viewed as a feature request – for a feature that used to work and should be working now. Is it? [...] Yes, good. But they didn't change "Move strength" to "Score strength". Why not, @sakamvari ? Why not, @lexulous ? Does anybody actually think "Move strength" is superior, or are you just being negligent and inattentive?

@vickibma Indeed. It still seems to be luck of the draw as to whether the colors match the right person or not. There was already a good thread discussing this (complete with screenshots). They were using more than two colors before, so at least there's progress lol.

@zaph You're right. I guess it's fair enough how it works now. And it actually tells you prior to playing what the rating change will be in the event of a tie. You can't say you weren't warned if you draw the game and lose points.

@sakamvari - Assuming sign out is the same as logout - made no difference. Any other suggestions?

@sakamvari - thanks for explaining. I just logged back in and my tile is back. I really have no idea what happened. I now have 8 tiles, and before it was 7. So the missing tile must have somehow just disappeared from view earlier, but it is now back.

Never “hot under the collar” or angry
This is a game
I was “invited” to play with this unknown (to me) player
I have only played games with a family member
Unexpected lack of protocol is a mystery
Just seeking game rules
I’ll wait out the 14 days
Thanks for your reply

@dan-mitchell Thanks for the response. Play live games only. One day an opponent was actually credited with my win, lol. For aa few points I wouldn't have worried but to lose so many in one hit was a shock to say the least.

@dan-mitchell said in Score strength not working:

They should have corrected the name to 'Score strength' while they were at it as per our previous suggestions (and this thread title).

That's a trivial suggestion that has nothing to do with gameplay, lol.

@sakamvari Thank you, I was able to play since that happened, but it was just so surprising I was afraid I'd been kicked out for some reason, or the game was no longer active. All is fine now. Thanks.
