    @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 have to say it's pretty incredible that @Lexulous still allows this problem. Seems like a pretty basic fix and shouldn't have happened in the first place

    Well the chat room is finally back on. It was down for about 2 weeks or so. Any explanation as to why?

    @veggietater I would just block the person. Easy enough and you won't encounter him/her until they create a new player ID

    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)!

    @jhon-steve if I don't like the time parameters I won't play. For example a 10-minute game is too long and I think it allows the other person the opportunity to cheat. Not that I'm super paranoid about it but I prefer to avoid it so I play five to seven minute games. Also in the app you can use the slider bar to limit the range of your opponent. I played around 17 to 1800 so I'm not going to accept a game from any of those a-holes that are up in the 2400 range.

    Thanks for sharing the details on the Lexulous Android subscription! It's helpful to know that cancellations are flexible. However, I’m curious—are there any upcoming features planned for premium users?

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

    @RocoInteriors That sounds like a connection issue or is your FB app up to date?

    @Lilia They really did a great job with the new board. I can imagine how difficult it would be to get everything right, but I can't imagine it better. The only thing I miss is the Flash version. It was so much better than this kind of unwieldy and awkward platform which I realize are limitations of the software.
