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..

ASK A SILLY QUESTION

A fellow scrabble player is known to be terrible with time. He often turns up to tournaments sweating and panting, at the last minute. I doubt if he would ring the tournament director with a heads-up. Anyways, he wanted to see me and gave me a choice between the Greensborough Scrabble Club and another dubious faraway place. So I sent him the reply below. The reason I am posting that reply is because it includes accurate directions of how to get to the Greensborough Scrabble Club, for the benefit of Victorian and interstate scrabble visitors. You are all welcome to pay a visit and enjoy a scrabble day among friends. The club meetings are on Tuesdays from 12:30 pm up to about 4:00 pm or slightly after. Just drop by for a cuppa and up to possibly 5 games:

Dear X,

Ask a silly Q, you get a silly A:

Knowing how accurate you are with your arrival times, I give you a time range of 12:30 - 4:00, rather than a specific time. The address is:

Watsonia Neighbourhood House, Cnr Lambourn Rd and Kenmare St, Watsonia.

Drive through the entrance on Lambourn Rd. Ignore the hall facing the entrance and turn right into the spacious car park. As you get closer to the main building, you would find a nursery type childproof metal gate on your left. Get through that gate and walk straight ahead, then up a flight of wooden steps to a door facing you at the end of the passageway. Open the door without knocking to find about a dozen of mostly familiar faces. 


(Check with Rose at the office if you fail to locate the room).
