I just came across an interesting word I thought I would share. Today in a lunchtime game with Brook, I got away with the phony OVERBIND*. Well, it's no good,...
Hey! Thanks for telling everybody I let a phoney get played against me!! Just kidding...see you all tonight... Brook ... I just came across an interesting...
I just wanted you to know I guessed the word before I looked at the "answer key". In today's game vs Paul, I passed on valid "BIRDERS" for phoney "BRIDGERS"...

Fellow Wordsmiths, It is not uncommon for some of us to arrange with another player to come to Club early (before 5:30) for a game or two. It is also not...
I think club start time should always be 5:30. That keeps a stronger integrity for the club and easier for new-comers. As we improve the club (ie prizes,...
I personally think that is an excellent idea! Those of us who have to drive 35 miles to get there may not always be able to play earlier, however in the event ...
... Makes sense to me. I think 5:30 is still a good time to start the regular club meeting. If players have arranged to meet each other early, those...
I've finally added a web page for tournament reports: http://utahscrabble.com/tournaments.shtml Thanks, Marie, for being on the ball with a tournament report...
... The "also" didn't mean Brook could make it early to the club, so I'm still looking for a partner for early birds. Anyone? -- Michael W Thelen It is a...
Sorry, I am afraid I will not be able to make it at lunch or at club today. Not feeling too well, and need all my energy to do my job and my calling... I hope...
Mike, How do we get tournament reports, meeting reports, etc. to you? email? I have a report for the Rocky Mountain Rumble and also for Las Vegas. Zana...
Because my laziness knows no bounds, I was brainstorming about ways to make it easier to enter game results and bingos on the web site. Each game in the...
Anyone up for an early bird game or two, before the start of club this week? Email me if you're interested. -- Michael W Thelen It is a mistake to think you...
I like this one. I would also add that the winner of the game is expected to do the tally sheet. In case of a tie, maybe the one who went first. I wouldn't...
I am going to try to make it there early by 4:30. If I am the odd one, I won't have a problem with that. I cannot get there any earlier but I will also need to...
... Thanks, Victor! I have made up a sheet and put it online here: http://utahscrabble.com/docs/tally-sheet.pdf There are four tally slips on a single page,...

I am interested in Early Bird play today, and I am staying the whole evening at club! I guess that means I'm "Pulling A Kent" or something. Anyway, I am not...
I am for that! Let's try that. I'm excited to play tonight.....I NEED SCRABBLE ... Because my laziness knows no bounds, I was brainstorming about ways to ...
I've just done one of the geekiest things imaginable, so I have to share it with you. A couple days ago, an Apple Store opened in the Gateway, right next to ...
WOW Mike, I'd say that I'm impressed ... boy do you ever sleep? I asked that because you could listen to these words before dozing off and even set an...
And what did *I* do yesterday? Tried to put a hat on my cat....there's the difference between you and me, Michael. But, YES, I would be interested. You nerd. ...
Mike, Incredibly geeky and incredibly impressive. I think you're onto something here. The sound bites are too quick for me, but it shouldn't be too difficult...

Mike, I like the improvement. The recitation speed is just right for me, and the pronunciation of the word "eugenia" was quite acceptable. Let me know when...
