Someone is definitely showing signs of addiction. An intervention may be needed.

I think until we get a new router tomorrow, I will have to continue abstaining. My connection is reallllllly slow. Like, dialup.

Your penance will be to lose to the Tiger five times in a row. Wait, slow as dial up? Ok, 3.

I kind of like watching Teh Arwen being punished. *smirk*

I may have to turn off my notifications on my phone.

Every time a certain Kitty makes a move at crazy o'clock I get this lovely sound coming from my phone.

I think Teh Arwen can't start any new games until she starts winning some of her current ones :|

Those who are not my FB friends and want to play, please message me and I will give you my user name.

I don't care when you make your move, I realize we are all busy and have our lives to live, well except for the Kitty.

I do expect that you follow protocol and at least finish the game, resign, do something, but don't just leave it there. As a typical Virgo I hate to see it there, unfinished.

This makes me want to not move for three days. I can't do that. I feel my phone buzz and I will WAKE up to make my move. I now leave my phone out of reach.

Most of the time it isn't crazy o'clock where I am located. lol If you would just move to California San Diego to be more specific this wouldn't be an issue Uof<what shall I call you today?>Mfan.

Arwen - I am spot on!

Christie's post made me smile. While I am not the brain crack pusher I do enjoy watching others share in the addiction you people have. I'm not addicted. :lol2:

sara-bera 12-28-2011 02:33 PM

the latest update of WWF has my phone in a tizzy. My battery drains in an hour if I play!

I might cry.

I am a little addicted.

Aww you want me to move near you. That may have touched my cold heart.

I am not a fan of the wrong coast, but thanks!

It (the latest update) did the same thing to my phone this morning, so I have been playing from FB.

I am not addicted, but I do enjoy exercising my brain.

christie 12-28-2011 02:44 PM

Are you using the free version or the pay version?

I haven't updated the free... last thing I need is more battery drain - the 12 hours a day I talk/text on it is bad enough! I might have to load it on the iPad too (and then seek out a 12 step program *wink* )

sara-bera 12-28-2011 03:08 PM

the paid version. I might have to uninstall until the next update. My task-killer won't even shut it off. I have to manually shut the program down every time I play.

It's a known issue though. I'd like to think their developers are working on it. I hope. I hope a lot.

Very little can drive me to visit FB, but this kerfluffle with their last update might.

Random 12-29-2011 01:27 PM

How many of you use some sort of outside help?

scrabble helper or crossword helper?

Is it cheating or cheating the spirit of the game?

yes/no?

why/why not?

I'm sort of ambivilent about outside help, cause I'm playing the game for a learning experience...

But it does bite to be trounced by over three hundred points by someone you KNOW does not know what the small earbone of an animal that has been extinct for several thousand years is called.

JoSchmooze 12-29-2011 01:35 PM


I finally won a game with Dixie
But I haven't seen her online since then....

Everyone else is beating mah ass regularly,
Even that Andrea who had not played before I offered
to let her beat me!


starryeyes 12-29-2011 01:36 PM

I am romeebear if anyone wants to play. I'm game!

:-D
Starry

Gentle Tiger 12-29-2011 02:45 PM

There are triple Ds (3 Ds) on my tray! :shocking:

I don't use helpers. If I wouldn't be allowed to do it in a game of scrabble, I wouldn't do it in WWF.

I do however, have a ridiculous vocabulary. I love words, especially archaic ones and I am a voracious reader.

I don't play against people I suspect to be using helpers. It doesn't feel like a game anymore and I just don't see the point, I'm afraid.

scootebaby 12-29-2011 02:54 PM

so...we can have as many open games as we want? we dont have to sit and complete a game if there are time constraints...im slowly getting around to spending more time over there so this info would be helpful

I think that if no one makes a move for seven days, the game will end. And you may play up to twenty games, I believe.

I have a game that has been idle for 8 days, and yes it is driving me nuts!
How difficult is it to resign? (I am not talking about you RitaSink, you are quite apt at following protocol and common courtesy).

I have about 15 games going on right now, so I am not sure if twenty is the limit and frankly I don't want to test that one out. I'll take your word for it.

Oh and no time constraints, ask the kitty he knows :D

sara-bera 12-29-2011 06:02 PM

If you want to resign, you just have to do so on your turn.

I'm afraid I'm going to be resigning my games until the next update. I'm terribly sorry, but it's now locking my phone up and I don't want to aggravate anyone with dangling games.

It was a rhetorical question, It is not my turn.

I was not able to play from my phone until late today, it seemed to be working fine then.

Oh. I don't do well at seeing that in text. And, it's not really easy to see where to resign since they updated it. : )

I don't use any sort of help when playing. I do look up words I know are words but can't remember what it means. Sometimes I look the word up before I play it and something I wait until after, but I do need to know what it means at some point. I also look up words other people play that I don't already know.

I play the game to test myself and to learn from others. Heck, I don't even care if I win. I just want to play.

I've had games that were stalled for a while. I finally read everything since I hoped they would drop off after 7 days. Nope. Un-played games take 11 days to die.

Yes, twenty is the limit. I wish they would raise it because I don't get to play half the games I'd like...lol




Oh, and I have YET to win a game against GT. I'm gonna start holding candy hostage or something, in hopes of winning just one!!

Medusa 12-29-2011 08:03 PM

I had 15 games going and probably drove all my opponents crazy when I disappeared for 7 days :-/

This happened to me, I deleted the App then reinstalled and that worked, Not saying it will but it's a prob with the game for sure.

You were gone so long that when the game popped up I thought "Were we playing a game?" lol

Medusa 12-29-2011 08:19 PM

I need to blame it on GentleTiger. He has whipped my ass the last four games so i had to go pout :)

Just scored an 84 point word against Medusa. The word was "FADGE". Didn't even know that was a word. I was trying to put "fudge" but was distracted by something on tv. Thank you distractions! LOL

I tried that. It helped for a minute, but this morning it was worse than ever.
Hopefully, they will update it soon.

Gentle Tiger 12-29-2011 10:22 PM

I am innocent. And yet I am being punished. I have YET to win against the UofkeepswinningMfan. But I am getting closer to victory.

In other news, why am I getting trays with either all vowels and either one or no consonants OR all consonants and one or no vowels? My tray at the moment:
ioiiuur
.

I think I will return the favor and blame Medusa.

Hollylane 12-29-2011 10:28 PM

Picture me drumming my fingers waiting impatiently for someone(s) to make their moves...


Arwen 12-30-2011 01:13 AM

In regards to using helper sites like wineverygame.com, I use it if the other person knows and is using it. My writing partner and I did have two games going. One with and one without.
