In an effort to internationalise the game, a group of nutcases periodically revise the allowed vocabulary. Scrabble vocabulary developed into a bizarre jargon claimed to cover words from other languages. If you only play with friends, use any dictionary without the word "Scrabble" on its cover. This blog is primarily concerned with competitive Scrabble and the incompetence of some of its custodians..

Please Cool Down

H,
 
You are giving everybody a rope to hang you by​,  from T. Arsehole to BJ's apprentice. Even nuts such as Loony Moony or Shoe Iceberg are having a go at you.This is not the way to argue on a public forum. Even if you are absolutely correct, which you often are, you still leave yourself vulnerable to justifiable criticism. Please cool down! Even if you don't have an iota of respect for the person you are addressing, you still have to address them carefully.
 
Let M be your learning example. She could be the devil incarnate, but she stabs you with a smile.

This post was written in 2015, so it might require some clarification. The addressee "H" was the late Harry Malcolm. Harry was, and still is, a scrabble icon. Like all honest righteous people, he made many enemies and very few friends. Those very few will always remember him, while the many enemies would rather forget.

As to "M", that was short for "Marj", I leave the exact identity to your imagination.
