So, now that I have a smart phone, I have started playing words with friends... I think that there are at least 15 games going on right now. I just counted- there are 16. there are 10 that are finished. I have won 2, but I got out of 2 before I started playing. I am not ready to play strangers yet. I also got out of a game by accident because I really didn't have a moment to play a word, so I lost.
Here is some of my history on playing scrabble-type games. My mother is the most intelligent person that I know. My step-mother is close behind. They play scrabble together. Sure it sounds weird to you, but they play well together. My mother plays scrabble so often that we get her the newest scrabble dictionary when they come out. (Guess what she's getting for the next holiday present?)
I would play with my mom and our family and friends sometimes while we were sitting on the porch of the yacht club before dinner. I didn't like playing with the "adults" because while I was using "CAT" Mom used "QAT". I still feel that way. However, now that I'm one of those "adults", I'm playing decently. Well, I'm getting higher scores that I used to for totals. I just won a game with a total of 301.
My sister is hounding me to play faster.
We used to joke about having EIEIO- no consonants, only vowels. One game I have the last letter of J. There is ONLY one 2 letter word with J. "jo", there is no open "o". I fear I'm screwed on that one, plus I'm playing my sister who is much like her mother and very intellectual. Both of my sisters are. I'm the fun one. LMAO!
I just won another game, final score 370 to 358. These alerts are going off every minute or so! What have I started??? I have games that I've been waiting 2 and 3 days for my opponent to take their turn.
I feel like I have the same words over and over. I used AXE in at least 2 games today, and QAT in almost 8. I have had 4 E's, 2 A's and an I in one game, and no vowels in another.
I'd ask you to look for me, but I'm not sure how many I can play at once! If my mother ever gets a smartphone... I know she will want to play, and then I'll be playing "DOG" and she will add MA in a triple word score and beat me while I took a moment to blink!
