@Lily-Ell Talking about fake profiles ... are you a raccoon who plays Lexulous?

Lexulous Puzzles is a solitaire version of the game.

We are currently testing out this feature and it is in BETA mode.

If you have any suggestions or comments please reply on this topic.

@NOthing Some forums / topics could be admin only where voting is not allowed.

@Jan-Fenn Moved your question to the appropriate topic, see first message for answer

@Tracy-R Super, we'll have that incorporated soon.

It should show up every time after you play the puzzle. The next time this doesn’t happen please share the puzzle number and we will review.

Object of the Game

Players must use letter tiles to make words with on the board. The player with the highest score once all 89 tiles are exhausted, wins the game! All words are permitted with the exception of the following: words that are always capitalised, prefixes and suffixes alone, abbreviations, and words requiring an apostrophe / hyphen.

Game Play

• The player who goes first is randomly chosen. They must use at least 2 or more tiles from their rack to form a word on the board. Any one tile must fall on the centre square. Diagonal words are not allowed.

• Once you've played a word, your rack will be replenished with new tiles, up to a maximum of 8 tiles, and turn passes to your opponent. Remember, the entire pool consists of 89 tiles.

• Players may form new words on the board in the following ways:

- Placing a complete word parallel to a word already played so that adjacent letters also form complete words.

- Adding one or more letters to a word or letters already on the board.

- Placing a word at right angles to a word already on the board. The new word must use one of the letters already on the board or must add a letter to it.

- Blanks: The two blank tiles may be used as any letters. When playing a blank, you must choose which letter it represents. It remains that letter for the rest of the game.

• You may use a turn to exchange all, some, or none of the letters. To do this, click on the SWAP button. This ends your turn.

• The game ends when all letters have been drawn and one player uses his or her last letter; or when all possible plays have been made; or when players pass their turn 3 times in succession.

THIS POST IS A WORK IN PROGRESS.

@Lisken-Van-Pelt-Dus Nice thoughts.

• The AI is an indicative score. We will be providing bonus points if the AI's score is beaten by the player.
• Rating system will be improved.

@Emma-Tristram Sorry we are not offering 7-letter hand games.

@Agnes-Douglass Please see https://forum.lexulous.com/topic/4/initiating-game-with-friends

The Lexulous Rating indicates the skill level of a player. The rating calculations are based on the excellent Glicko system formulated by Professor Glickman. You can read in detail here.

TLDR;

• All players start with a rating of 1500 which changes at the end of each game.

• If you defeat higher rated players, your rating will increase by a larger margin as compared to defeating players who are rated at your level or lower.

• Similarly, if you lose to players rated same as yourself or lower the rating loss will be magnified.

@Andrew-East @betterlate1 We have fixed this problem today.

@Andrew-East Are you playing LIVE games? the first turn in LIVE games needs to be played within a minute.

@C00LGUY Please write to admin@lexulous.com with the email address you are trying to validate and we'll get that done.

@Bria-Silbert The completed games will appear in your history soon. There is some "lag" as one of the computers is not functioning properly.
