If you want to resign, you just have to do so on your turn.

I'm afraid I'm going to be resigning my games until the next update. I'm terribly sorry, but it's now locking my phone up and I don't want to aggravate anyone with dangling games.

It was a rhetorical question, It is not my turn.

I was not able to play from my phone until late today, it seemed to be working fine then.

Oh. I don't do well at seeing that in text. And, it's not really easy to see where to resign since they updated it. : )

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 any sort of help when playing. I do look up words I know are words but can't remember what it means. Sometimes I look the word up before I play it and something I wait until after, but I do need to know what it means at some point. I also look up words other people play that I don't already know.

I play the game to test myself and to learn from others. Heck, I don't even care if I win. I just want to play.

How difficult is it to resign? (I am not talking about you RitaSink, you are quite apt at following protocol and common courtesy).

I have about 15 games going on right now, so I am not sure if twenty is the limit and frankly I don't want to test that one out. I'll take your word for it.

I've had games that were stalled for a while. I finally read everything since I hoped they would drop off after 7 days. Nope. Un-played games take 11 days to die.

Yes, twenty is the limit. I wish they would raise it because I don't get to play half the games I'd like...lol

Oh, and I have YET to win a game against GT. I'm gonna start holding candy hostage or something, in hopes of winning just one!!

Medusa · 12-29-2011, 08:03 PM

I had 15 games going and probably drove all my opponents crazy when I disappeared for 7 days :-/

This happened to me, I deleted the App then reinstalled and that worked, Not saying it will but it's a prob with the game for sure.

You were gone so long that when the game popped up I thought "Were we playing a game?" lol

Medusa · 12-29-2011, 08:19 PM

I need to blame it on GentleTiger. He has whipped my ass the last four games so i had to go pout

THAT I can understand completely.

dixie · 12-29-2011, 09:25 PM

Just scored an 84 point word against Medusa. The word was "FADGE". Didn't even know that was a word. I was trying to put "fudge" but was distracted by something on tv. Thank you distractions! LOL

I tried that. It helped for a minute, but this morning it was worse than ever.
Hopefully, they will update it soon.

Gentle Tiger · 12-29-2011, 10:22 PM

I am innocent. And yet I am being punished. I have YET to win against the UofkeepswinningMfan. But I am getting closer to victory.

In other news, why am I getting trays with either all vowels and either one or no consonants OR all consonants and one or no vowels? My tray at the moment:

ioiiuur

.

I think I will return the favor and blame Medusa.

Hollylane · 12-29-2011, 10:28 PM

Picture me drumming my fingers waiting impatiently for someone(s) to make their moves...

In regards to using helper sites like wineverygame.com, I use it if the other person knows and is using it. My writing partner and I did have two games going. One with and one without.

Ebon · 12-30-2011, 08:01 AM

Glad to know it's not just me getting my ass whipped by GT EVERY game!!

I think you may have this one, it is the Christmas season after all. Thanks for letting us know the content of your tray, now all I need to figure out which tray, bwhahahahaha!

I didn't even know they had those.

I am a strategist, and I tend to use a lot of words that stem from Latin, and I have been playing both in English and Spanish since I can remember. I will keep it that way and stay away from helper sites, they may mess with my WwF mojo.

Perhaps the Kitty may want to give it a shot?

I think I will now go to the word of the day thread and type HUBRIS.
