facebook scrabble

How come, my opponant went over their time, so I skipped their go. I then played quip. They then played plate, using the p I used, but quiplate isn't a word . . . . ????????????

quiplate is a word, but it seems to be a technical term for a medical procedure so I'd question if it should be allowed under the traditional rules of scrabble.

[mollykins]

It's not in the dictionary we're using

[ChuckFickens]

Well no it won't be unless you have a medical dictionary. There is some arguments about what words they do allow in facebook scrabble though so your not the only one.

It seems they allow lots of words that would not be allowed under the traditional rules (such as pronouns)

But it msut be an error with the server. They went over their time, I played quip using a 'p' already there, they then played plate using the same 'p' but according to them, they didn't have their go skipped which it showed on mine.

And I looked it up in the facebook scrabble dictionary and it came up as invalid.

Oh good gawd noooooo! the world is about to descend into thermal nuclear war, the facebook scrabble server has a glitch in it!!

[mollykins]

I still won though.

[mollykins]

According to them, no 'q' was ever played and i was putting words into thin air as apparantly they oculdn't see 'quip'

I wasn't winning when I posted it
