And... ETAMINS was an error. I should have played TSUNAMI for the double word score. Ten more points!

Lexulous, the FB scrabble game, is often much too restrictive about derived words, e.g., plurals, unfoo, refoo, ...

How does challenge work in Lexulus? Kim and I play with TWL06, which has the same problem some times (like OVERTAKER isn't in it). If they use the proper challenge rules, you can use this well.

You play OVERTAKER, your naive opponent doesn't challenge it. Then they try adding an S, writing OVERTAKERS, and you challenge it off the board! You get a turn, but you feel like a bit of a jerk.

Nice board! Very nice scores too.

Is that blank up in the top left corner under ZOA an S?

If you ever want to play online, I'm mazyshar on WordBiz - http://www.isc.ro/

Oh, that's ETAMINS, got it :)

No, STAEMINS has an E after the A, so I couldn't play that.
