    @raediation Please tell her to challenge me (email option)! I prefer to use the English dictionary but we Brits are outnumbered by our very own colonists who have forgotten how to spell properly! LOL "Y'all have a nice day!"

    @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 [...].

    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: [image: 1630547883744-2a460df5-33be-44de-b31c-ab653d120b02-image.png] 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. https://forum.lexulous.com/topic/697/matching-colors

    @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.

    @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.
