Subject: WOW

Everyone has great ideas here!

My idea:

Is it possible for BK to start up a scrabble type game?
The format at IYT is pretty good (they call it jamble)
If we had scrabble here I could get rid of my IYT membership altogether because that is the only game which keeps me loyal there.
I might be able to bring my friends over too.

Summertop: I don't know whether this is the biggest problem, but there are also different letter values in different languages. In English it would be strange to use K=10, W=10 like we do in French.

I love scrabble too...but scrabble or a clone like it = a no no...hasbro is serious about maintaining its copyright over scrabble.
e-scrabble had to close because of it.

nobleheart:

Thank you for that information
I know that Hasbro has a real tight grip on the scrabble TM or is it Milton Bradley?
That is why IYT changed the format a little and changed the name and it works pretty well

But IYT is a minor fraction of the site that Brain King is.

The luckiest day I ever had was when IYT crashed last summer for weeks and I searched for a replacement.
Voila.... BK came to my rescue.

For life!
