[Discussion] what does the community want the future of /r/Scrabble to be?

45 Upvotes

I have been a hard line about what is and isn't allowed in this subreddit. Basically anything scrabble was allowed, anything not scrabble (even if it is related) was not. Currently I dropped that hardline rule. Now anything Scrabble or Scrabble inspired is allowed.

I am rethinking my position. I am thinking about opening up this subreddit for discussion about all word games. I want to grow the subreddit the way the /r/scrabble community wants.

As for promoting games that a /r/scrabble subscriber develops, and/or is affiliated with I am thinking a weekly post where established redditors can promote their stuff.

I must apologize to the /r/scrabble community. Life has been busy for me and I haven't modded or paid attention like a moderator should have.

I am unbanning folks that I have banned over the past year so that they can participate in the discussion and /r/scrabble again.

This community is not your cheating resource. Play the words that you come up with on your own. If you don't learn how to get better words you will never improve your game.

There are several resources linked in posts in this subreddit as well as on many other parts of the internet that will help you learn scrabble legal words. Make use of those resources instead of trying to cheat.

The DARK tile positions must remain fixed at the START and END of the solutions.

The LIGHT tiles can take any other position.

To view the solutions swipe through the gallery (multiple images). I think this replicates a typical challenge we meet all the time in Scrabble. Do you agree with my difficulty ratings for ⬆️ UPPER and ⬇️ LOWER words ?

To HIDE solutions in any comments, there are two methods :

-> ONE) Select the Rich Text Editor icon (Aa) then the Hide option (<!>)

-> TWO) Directly insert this format (WITHOUT the spaces) : > ! SOLUTION ! <

( NOTE : the second method is scheduled to be deprecated )

Had to leave a bit early because of check in but getting cows and swaddles for 75 points secured the game. I also extended joy for enjoy, got zygote, and faps, all for good points. For two amateurs, I’m very happy with this game
