    • 2021 New Format

      Namaste!

      We understand that any change is confusing at first. However, we did not really have a choice in creating a new format. The old format has to be phased out due to technology being out-dated. After all it was created in 2007/2008.

      The process over a year back and players are using the new format comfortably since quite a few months now. So please share your concerns and we will look into them.

      The new format has many additional features that make game play interesting and save time for players. For example:

      • Click on the game number to the right of the board to open the menu and change Colours, Numbered Board, Magic Tiles & other settings.
      • To the left of the tile rack there is a Shuffle icon, click once to shuffle. click again to arrange in A-Z order.
      • To the right of the rack you have SWAP and PASS icons.
      • The moment you place tiles on the board the play button changes to red or green depending on word validity.
      • After you place tiles, to the left of your tile rack you will get the Undo icon
      • There is a T icon towards the top right of the chat box, simply click on it to cycle through the different font sizes for the chat area.
      • Two letter word lists are more accessible to the right of the board (Dictionary tab)
      • Unseen tiles now shows percentage of vowels & consonants so you can play your turn better.
      • Last word shows at top left and clicking on it will open the move list making it more accessible during the game.
      • Head To Head stats are shifted to under the Tools section to the right of the board.
      • Clicking on a player will bring up the stats box for the player
      • You can click on the board for an arrow to show up and simply type out the words instead of dragging & dropping each letter.

    • RE: Admit the new version is a mistake and ditch it.

      Hello everyone!

      We understand that the new changes have a lot of bugs. We are constantly working on fixing them and ironing out the various issues which are standard when any new version of a website or app is launched.

      We HAD to make these changes because Flash is no longer supported by Adobe and will soon be barred from loading by all browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, etc.

      Please note that:

      • Your comments are being heard. We will take note of problems you face and we WILL FIX THEM! Keep posting about the problems you face and provide as much information as you can, for example, by attaching screenshots. This will help us replicate the issues and fix them quicker.

      • Lexulous was and will be, ALWAYS FREE. Do not believe in rumours that we will close down or start asking players for money. NO PAYMENTS REQUIRED FOR LIFE. That's our committment!

      Enjoy your games and rest assured that we will not disappoint you.

      Kind regards,
      The Lexulous Team

    • Rating System

      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.

      @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.

      @Lily-Ell Also it would be helpful if you use the appropriate topic in the forum instead of posting your messages on the first page that comes up.
