    how is it constantly possible to say the vowel distribution is random when they arrive to my rack in pairs

    ooiieeaauu
    it is destroying my game and grossly unfair

    there are 37 vowels to 50 consonents and realistically i get at least 5/6 vowels most racks
    in particular iiu in the last 2 racks

    this needs to be addressed and made fairer urgently

        @arandsr I also feel that something has changed in that regard. It's not always bad, but there are certainly more times on the new version where I get huge vowel dumps. It's like the tiles aren't getting mixed up enough lol. Perhaps they need to use a different randomizer program/algorithm.

        I'd also love to see the return of seven letter games as an option. I know that post-Scrabulous they had to change the board and tile values. The eight letter rack wasn't required though as many of the popular competing games are still using seven. Let's have both options!

              @dan-mitchell Seven letter games are not an option, if you had done more listening or reading rather than being a blah blah blah..........

                I resent my friend Dan Mitchell being called a blah blah blah, even if he is.

                  @sparks You failed to mention the fact that the original board was identical to Scrabble. Perhaps you should have done more reading instead of being a blah blah blah. And seven letter games are an option. You can't copyright that. Congrats on being both rude and wrong.

                      @dan-mitchell hey, man I feel bad I missed a couple of the points you mentioned, and also (in addition) I feel mostly (overwhelmingly) bummed out (disappointed) in myself (me).
                      It seems like you dislike (abhor) me. Im ok with that, I told you i'm often wrong and contradict myself (hypocrite)so it shouldn't be a surprise (surprise) that it has played out like this (eventuated ((puke)))
                      I believe in you Dan, and I really think you can be that 175% of the tautology that you always dreamed of being.

                        @sparks IMO you're an unpleasant oddball who rarely makes much sense or adds anything useful to a conversation. Work on improving your attitude, comprehension and English skills. And show some respect to @arandsr by adding something relevant to the thread topic.
