You say it is not possible to continue in the old format, but 4 of my partners are still using it without a problem, so where is the problem with 'technology, ' and what is this 'technology' you talk about. The new board is clumsy to use, the only improvement to come out of it is that messages between partners are instant . No doubt we'll all get used to it but it doesn't mean we like it...perhaps we'll go and find other sites to play on.

@lucemarie ...I do apologise, I'd mispelt the word in the 'dictionary,' and it turned out to be the correct spelling of a different word...

Why has a word been validated in the dictionary but refused on the board ? P'raps a return to the 'old' format would be the best thing all round. More research should have been done before submitting it to the unsuspecting players, and why do we need technology to play a word game ??
