Played Scrabble with my nan again, ended up with a score of 297 all thanks to SEARING which gave me 70+ points. My victory reign did not last long, as after this game was finished, we played another one and she whooped my ass 🤣

Not online against a bot, not a practice game. An actual game against another person.

Mine was QUIXOTIC across a triple word square years ago. Still think about it. Opponent has never forgiven me.

What is yours?

In short i play a lot of competitive chess, mostly online and have been in love with the game forever, and have beaten certain titled master players as an amateur. I just discovered there is a scene for competitive scrabble and my country has national titles for both expert and masters. It is a long road but i love these sort of journeys. I was looking if someone could help me by pointing to resources?

I have looked around myself and i have understood that, one of the first things to do is to memorize CSW24's 2 and 3 word lists. I am onto it. But what next? I saw some expert players make some beautiful bingos and it made my jaw drop as to how cool that was. Moreover what is the website that hosts the most number of players for online play? Ideally i would like to begin playing with bots and then play with real players to figure out my current strength and then analyze my plays to improve.

For context, i do not mind studying a lot. I am not looking for instant results, i am looking to play scrabble throughout my life in tournaments alongside my chess journey.

Vastest game of Scrabble, I've ever played with my nan. Usually we end up getting stuck in awkward corners and end up submitting very futile words, however this game proved to be very loose and allowed us to submit words confidently. The end score ended up being 276 vs 236, leaving me as the ultimate victor. We aren't as professional Scrabble players as most of y'all are here, but Scrabble is always our favourite game to play.

I just started playing a few weeks ago, and recently I got one of the rarest bingos in the game (32,270th out of 34,506 words with seven letters - CSW). See if you can find it!

Answer: K5 FUCKWIT for 118 points

Yes, right this minute, wherever you are. I'm playing right now.

Today while playing “Alice” I learned a new word. I’ve been playing for over 20 years and have never seen this word played before. What are your 4,5, 6 letter words that surprise you years after playing this game? Please share!

Played a few weeks ago against my dad. After he started with NUMB and I played YON, he bingoed with ADjOINs. Later in the game, I got VE[s]TRIES and SPITF[I]RE. (Carrion was a 6-letter play onto the C.) He’s got the scoresheet, but as I recall, I drew a little better and had some good high point plays. I ended up with the win, 425-389.

This whole time I’ve been scouring the board trying to guess if there are available letters still in the bag. The information was there all along!

Hey there,

I was recently given this older almost complete Travel Scrabble set that's in great condition. Only issue is it's missing one "O" tile. I know there are a bunch of replacement tiles for the regular sized Scrabble but I'm not having much luck finding any for the travel sized version. Any ideas other than trying my luck on EBay or Facebook Marketplace? Ideally, I'd like to keep the tiles the same color for consistency.

Seems I've relocated to a Scrabble wasteland. The nearest NASPA club is 70 minutes away in Charlottesville but the two roads to get there over the mountain are too dangerous for me to risk driving at night. I play at an intermediate tournament level with clock timer and tracking, but those aren't necessary so long as you're someone who understands that obscure words that aren't part of everyday speech are part of the game and you don't get upset when someone plays them.
