The Unbearable Lameness Of E-scrabble

- It doesn't count points up right

- It doesn't let you specify tile placement precisely (resulting in less than maximum scoring in some cases)


Points are key in Scrabble! It's the whole object of the game, people. The makers of e-scrabble need to work on their algorithms.

It also never emailed me when it was my turn to move like it was supposed to, so I've never finished a game with them.

They cheated me out of 60 freakin points!

That was a damn good move too.

No, no, the point is to have fun with it, making up crazy words...
But the last turn can screw you over if the person who goes out plays a word that isnt...
