ljbrun Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) And we're off.............. Uh oh, emptying your rack to start the game! I'm at the wrong end of Shock & Awe. Getting "trounce"d at the start. Edited April 25, 2012 by ljbrun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Yep... It's your turn. Back at ya. Was there any probs starting game two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Back at ya. Was there any probs starting game two? I actually forgot we are playing two at once. Now, I'm trying to invite you to a second game, but I'm getting a message that basically says WWF is unable to recognize that user name... Which obviously doesn't make sense, given that we are currently playing a game. Username is "lmmikesvikes" with the first character being a lower-case L, correct? Maybe you should just send me another invite, and I'll play first, since you played first in the current game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 My wife just sent me a text, saying something to the effect of "I think this Matt guy is cheating... He sent me two games, swapping tiles in both. Not sure if he's trying to pick the game/rack he likes best, or what..." I forgot to tell her we're playing best 2 of 3. Sorry, Matt... I think she may have resigned one of the two games, given I screwed up and didn't inform her of the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Keep in mind: When starting the third game, if needed, the person with the lowest combined score in the two games has the option to go first or to pass to the other player. Not a huge deal, and it's probably too late to bring this up (given that there is so much riding on this tournament), but shouldn't it be the other way around? If Player A barely wins Game 1, but gets their azz kicked in Game 2, they get the advantage in Game 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpwallace49 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 bp, my username is dbrewer16. Hold on. I have too many games going and am not up in any of them right now so I can resign. :lol; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Never mind... I guess it doesn't really give them much of an "advantage" since the person going first can always pass/swap, anyway. It's more of just a method of determining who starts, which makes sense. Still haven't figured out how to invited MV to a second game.

I think she may have resigned one of the two games, given I screwed up and didn't inform her of the rules. It's not a big deal, both games randomly chose me to go first, so I passed one to her. In the other I chose to swap tiles. She did resign one and started a new one, so we're good to go. She ended up going first in both games, but in one I played all 7 letters with my first word so obviously I'm not going to bitch about it. I probably should have explained to her why I had started two games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was changed since then but maybe it's f'd up. I'll start another unless you just want to beat me by more than twice in the first game.

Otherwise I will just start another one in awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puddy Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Can't say I'm excited to draw Scooby in the first round. Part of my strategy will be to send her private messages during the games that will make Taz look normal. That should keep her from focusing on the words.
