Questions / Playing Tips

@thatguythere202 said in Too many i's!:

@sakamvari saying the tile distribution is "randomly chosen" makes it seem as if you have not understood the original complaint. The letters that each player receives during the game may be random, but that isn't what the complaint is about. It's the actual number of letters in the basket (or the bag, or the pot, or whatever you call it: where all the letters come from). Proportionally it seems as if the game always has too many I's. (apologies if I have misunderstood the complaint myself!)

You did not misunderstand what was said.

it is still not the same as scrabble was a month ago

@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. ☮

@sherrylee62 good he ended, at least you won

@mapmakere - Thank you. I'm still trying to learn all of the new changes.

@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

@una-ni-mhathuna are you on android? Is your app the latest version?

@betterlate1-0 guess you got your answer if it was a real question

@thatguythere202 @scantron so intent on stardom uh..makes me wonder if what i thought from start was true

@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.

@lexulous Great! Thankyou.

@ray-schreffler I have the answer!! In your Windows settings, disable high contrast & it goes back to normal. Elaine xx
