What about the people who like glacially slow conversations? One sentence every 11 months?

Two unrelated requests that probably have already been asked for:

1. Please, can we have a formula in settings for minimum/maximum times we want to play? (Recently I forgot to look at an incoming match, and it turned out it was for a fast game, which I didn't want to play.)

2. It seems like censoring only has an effect on lobby/chatting. I'm sure a lot of us want it to also block people from joining our games!

Thank you.

Recently I was playing and had the following possible bingo:

I point your attention to the Score thermometer, which implies that is one of the best plays.

Luckily, I noticed a better spot:

Isn't it a bit weird that both a 79 point and a 122 point play get 'best' rating?

I wonder if sometimes lex gets too busy and stops looking for possible plays?

@dan-mitchell

Perhaps they have fixed censoring.

I agree with you that a very different visual look for the dialog boxes for 'match' vs. 'join' would be very nice.

Don't you wonder if some people match randomly with fast games in hopes of an easy win?

@anexparrot That's what family is for.

LOL good one!

@mapmakere LOL, it's a reference to 'a non-existent species of parrot, called a "Norwegian Blue".' Or rather an ex-non-existent one. Youtube

@sparks I don't like censorship either.

Also, I'm not sure if lex still does this, but in the past they would just drop whole lines that had 'offending' words. The problem was that they didn't notify either the sender or the reader that something had been removed. Which can be confusing!

@roymccoy No, what I meant was for that play there were not too many words on the board, so not too many spots for the code to consider.

@dan I didn't hover over the bar. This was a live game and I was already taking time with the screenshots.

I think part of the reason I was surprised by the ST's behavior is that it's a fairly simple board-- not many spots to analyze.

It doesn't really matter, but I wonder if the ST's code mainly runs on our browser end or the server side?

@jrp32 I should add that my friend said he didn't see it in a recent live game. I don't think you can still play live games with the previous version?
