@betterlate1-0 That might be a tiny part of it.

@betterlate1-0 Interesting. I find it so unobtrusive that I often miss it altogether! I wish I could hear my opp's timer tho as I will give them extra time under the right circumstances.

@betterlate1-0 If each has passed once, that would indicate to me that neither has a play they can make. Three seems superfluous.

@thatguythere202 It may be gaining popularlity elsewhere, Guy. A young friend of mine was reading Harry Potter in Basque a few years ago.

@mistertoad I play on a laptop and still see only 2 definitions at a time, sometimes three if they're short.

@dan I think most regular chatters there figure it out pretty quicky; it IS annoying tho.

@sparks If that's about the inability of one to type certain words in the lobby, then I second it. Here are some which result in the whole line not appearing: silly, stupid, gay, ridiculous, lesbian, jerk.

@bernie-s You're*

@roymccoy To clarify, I mean those and other words are banned in the lobby, not in a game.

@mistertoad Some of that may be valid. But when words such as die, silly, death, lesbian, ridiculous, and other innocuous words one might use in a friendly convo are banned, it can make conversation difficult.

@dan Yeah...Ive seen many accusations of using a word generator, but precious little proof!

@anexparrot At one time, the offensive word would be replaced by dots so you could still get the gist of the thought. I'd like that back again. I posted about it a couple of months ago, and @sakamvari said they'd look into it.

@anexparrot That would have been my fourth guess! Thanks.

@anexparrot I don't care one way or the other about the avatars, really, but were your ears burning last evng? A few of us wondered about your nick: does it mean 1) Ex paratrooper 2) you used to be a parrot (and if so, what are you now?) or 3) or are you a parrot that lives in the Annex neighbourhood in Toronto (but you couldn't fit in the other 'n').

@sakamvari Add more variations of what tho? It's the filtering of certain words that's the the problem.

@roymccoy Yes, saw you observing a few of my games last night. Did you notice the lobby below that game board? That's where the chatting happens. Someone recalled vaguely that one used to have to play a few games before being able to participate there, and there's also an icon upper right in that window that lets you mute/unmute the lobby, and also one to do likewise with the game updates.

@roymccoy If you're actually logged in at the site you should be able to see it, but if no one's posting (which seems to be the case just now) you won't see anything. Idk why you can't post tho unless, as I say, you're not logged in to the site.

@roymccoy The lobby is where players in live games can chat or post tripe.

@jrp32 How can you even tell the gender of your opp? A: you can't. Nor can they tell yours.

@sparks Nonono, 47 is "Don't complain about anything if you are in the lead." Maybe you meant 44(a).
