Questions / Playing Tips

@jrp32 yeah I think that's a hardware issue not anything to do with Lexulous. Your processor is probably old and quite slow and it takes time for everything to load up unfortunately. I used to teach computer classes and I would describe the tension between software engineers and the hardware engineers as the Imelda Marcos syndrome: Mrs. Marcos would come home with new shoes but her closet was full and wouldn't have any place to put them so her husband, being rich and powerful, would build her a bigger closet. Now with extra space she could buy more shoes and fill it up again and he'd build her a bigger closet, etc. I see computer designers make faster processors with more RAM and the software engineers see that they have more ability to make bigger programs so they write more complicated programs. Your situation sounds similar, you have a bloated website loading up on your fire-stoked system. Maybe you can convert to a steam engine. :)

I’ve played 1000-some games with two friends by email the past few years. I don’t bother much with rankings/leaderboardsand so on, but I understand the concerns of those who DO. If the competition becomes “My AI is better than YOUR AI.” there’s no point (and no fun) playing. ARE there guidelines/rules as to what search tools (if any) are legit? If so, where do we find them? LEXULOUS is obviously DESIGNED to enable word-searching AS you play (eliminating the risk and fun of CHALLENGING words as one can in F2F Scrabble), so is anything offsite of Lex dodgy? Illegal?

I'm late in replying. For me, "focus" is only an issue in the moment of actually having to find a move. I only play slow-place games (though when playing chess I enjoy both blitz and correspondence). My tips for you are to concentrate on the following: -do you have letters to make common letter combinations such as 'ing', 'ion', 'er'? -which "hooks" has your opponent left you on which you can make words? -check that you haven't left possibilities for your opponent to get triples etc. -go for a lower score if the choice of other words allows your opponent too many opportunities. enjoy all of your games even when you lose (as we all do at some point)!

I have so many pop up ads I can't delete them to get to my game

That sounds frustrating! Maybe clearing the browser cache or trying an incognito window could help fix the tile movement issue.

It’s frustrating when app updates cause login issues, especially with services like Facebook that many rely on for quick access.

I continuously get a pop-up stating that I am temporarily blocked because I play too fast. Could you please remedy this situation.

Did not get any points on that last move despite beating last player by 18 and AI by 1. Nor did I get any points in the previous game where I beat the last player by 69 and AI by a considerable margin.
