barcalounger- the puzzle and the word list have to take precedence over smack talkin', unfortunately. ;)

I am the first person ever to use the chat function... THIS IS MY DOMAIN, O PRETENDER NAMED TOE MASTER THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!1

either my knowledge of obscure words is very limited, or I am blind and cannot see the words clearly before my eyes. in any case, 1061 is mighty impressive

How the hell can you get so many points? I'm not even at 300 yet!

theres a lot of common words, but some of the words it accepts are just crap. "roadeo" (sic) !!?? And it doesnt accept "eyot" which people do say round these parts... currently on 1414 but I'm giving up, the words just seem too arbitary.

barca is a cheat and a liar.

hooray I am chatting too :D

WISE GUY. why I oughtta...

noo :(

briane- All words are checked against the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, so you'll need to take your fight to the Scrabble nerds. :)

Is there any way to view people's word lists in the Archives? It'd be very cool to see just what words were used to get some of those massive scores. Cool site, by the way. I'm addicted.

!

Zyconium, Im at work and still working you. :P Notice last nights score? :D Same results as my first day. muhahaha

mwahaha we are the best spectra :D

Dr_God, you said all the words are checked against the official scrabble players dictionary. what happens if they are found in dictionary.com and not the scrabble dictionary? two examples: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=vire http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=roon

ah, links don't work. sorry for the mess roon and vire

seaellem- The words are only checked against the OSPD.

does anyone know why "revolters" is not acceptable? i have checked the scrabble dictionary and it is listed (as plural).

tooooo long jyu?

but the rules include 9 letter words when explaining the scoring...

I just found out that the OSPD doesn't have words over eight letters long. I'll work on finding another word list.

yes that revolters thing was annoying me too :(

I have switched Babble from using the OSPD to the "Enable" dictionary. It has a lot more words, and most importantly, it has "revolters". ;)

wooo revolters!

hey zycman and spectro - im stuck at 504 right now . . . frustrating but I'm addicted to this

oh excellent. Dr_God bless revolters!

hey there dood XD

How does this work?

I'm boggled by babble.

New feature alert! I've added the ability to view everyone's word lists after a puzzle closes. Go to the puzzle archive, and click on a name in the high score list. Voilà! Now you can see exactly what words the Babblers ahead of you on the high scores list found that you didn't. ;)

stuck on 1029 :S

Can't get past 826 . . . I am really pathetic tonight.

My streak is over :S

Somebody give me a high scoring word, quick - I won't tell anyone ! :)
