      My Puzzles board froze yesterday. Still frozen today. Can't even see my letters at the bottom of board. So frustrating!!!

      I have been playing Lexulous since 2007. I have working my way up on the Puzzles US dictionary site from 25+ to 6th. I play every day and feeling very frustrated that I can't play the Puzzle.

      I am no having any problem with my usual email games. That board is ok.

      HELP!

        @Jean-Pearse How can you exceed best move? It's not possible.

          @Pangloss The best move is the best the robot could think of. But it's possible to score higher than that surprisingly often. But not always.

              @Nell-Nelson - Then what the robot "thought of" wasn't the best move... 🤷‍♂️

                @Pangloss It was the best move so far. If you beat it, you are the best move so far. The machine can only compute what its algorithms allow and they don't take account, it seems, when you place tiles that allow words to be read in say three or four different directions. But who am I to say?

                  Thanks - it has righted itself. I notice other have had the same problem. It was odd because it was only the Puzzles screen, not the normal game.

                      @betterlate1 game in where you were asking for help and saying you could not see the bottom. You taught me a lesson..to read it all before I say a word. 🙂 thanks

                        @lexulous I'm playing the UK version but the two letter help is the US version - used to be okay but seems to have changed.

                          @lexulous I like the current set up as it gives you something to aim for. If possible, it would be nice to see a few other moves that have also been good after seeing the AI move. I like to look at the AI move even if I've beaten it. It is always fascinating to see the different moves which can be made on one board.

                            I've been playing the practice game and today (on two different computers and two different browsers) the new game won't reload. I just see this blank screen. Any ideas?

                              @lexulous It's interesting to see the stats of the top ten ranked players, but they are in another universe. Why not (also) show me the NEXT ten above me with their ratings so I know how far I have to go to move up in rank?

                                @lexulous Just recently you can't re-arrange the tiles in your rack - they skid around and won't arrange in the order you are trying to place them.

                                    The letters are skidding around again & the score to beat is listing letters they used as 0

                                      For the last several weeks, to place a tile, you need to set the tile one space under the square you want & then it will slide up into place. More recently, the tiles are disappearing altogether if you move them about on the board AND the blanks retain the letter you 1st assigned to them. They often will not become blank again even after recalling all tiles- they stay stuck as that letter you first chose.

                                        @jean-pearse I am in the same spot as you. I believe it has to do with Adobe Flash not being supported any longer. If there is a solution that has already been posted, please repost it!

                                            @spellingfool why not try some patience? It is not like Lex asked Adobe to leave. Lex is trying to give a site..that is worthwhile why not try some patience?
