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.

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.
