The only good way to play scrabble is by adding the rule that you must play the funniest word you can make.

I have had the most fun when i used to play with categories for double points. Having to explain why such and such belongs is half the fun.

I saw a YouTube video once where they could only use dirty/rude words. https://youtu.be/_PRlIZCI6uE?si=2ZnK2wfc7Vzz4rHb

Makes the game painfully difficult and required lots of passing. Still more exciting than legit scrabble, though. I hate the game and even more so because I was forced to play it by family (for whom scrabble is apparently the most fun board game they know) far more times than I'd like.

Ah, see, my family, now...

They'd refuse to let you play a word, on the grounds that you could surely get a better one, here give me your letters a minute.

Or they wouldn't let you play a word because it didn't 'open up the board', whatever the fuck that means.

I rapidly learned to not play with them.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
