Hi there,
Scrabble tournament is back. Note the date: Jan 28th is the closing date. Then I’ll post the groups in time for people to make plans for Feb 1st where games should start.
Ideally it will be an elimination round of one against one. Gradually we will make the group sizes bigger so round two could be three players and finals will be a game of 4 players with first, second and third places awarded.
Please look out for an inbox from me on 29th regarding groups or I’ll pm you if I find you online.
Any questions let me know and let’s have another bit of competition. F, U, N spells fun.
Thanks in advance

Lol...Sign me up please. That F U N comment had me worried at first, Chica. lol

Sign me up

sign up me. In regards to rules, what is the action on invalid word and thinking time limit?

The standard way we play. Unlimited and pass but I’m going to add if a game is over an hour and a half you should just count scores and see who is the highest. This was after one game last tournament took too long and a player was having to stay up till the early hours of her morning. Just thought of this.

well. what'll be the timings? cause we're in different timezones. so, what time will it be on 1st feb?

count me inn

@browneye on 29th you will know your group and it will be up to you and the other person to figure out what time on Feb 1st suits you but if by any chance that date doesn’t suit both of you then I’m flexible. The way my tournaments run is that I generally give a set time frame for each round. After that I will make anoter date for round two and notify everyone. So long as everyone checks inbox and comunicates it can work out.

Hi, go ahead and put my name down Em.

count me in too please! cant wait smiles

Please register me too

Count me in, super excited!

Please note that the priority of people taking part is based on reputation and ability to play, as in finish a game within a reasonable ttime. Those of you who have not played in a scrabble tournament before, will you please contact me in some way or another to discuss your participation. Thank you in advance.

I'm in. It would be nice to limit games to 1 vs 1. 3 or 4 person scrabble sucks.

I thought about this but it’s actually hard to keep track of so would really need someone to help me organise such a tournament. I do it this way because I’m finding it more challenging and fun as a group game but also because it’s easier to group people and eliminate this way. It also takes a lot longer in my view to go through all one to one games but someday, why not.

If there is someone you usually play with, you can ask them to help out in organizing.
It is as far as I can tell just watching the game and reporting the scores to you. You don't have to be present at every table.
Additionally, if you have multiple tables of 4 people, you can assign a table leader.
I don't think this is one of the popular games on PR, therefore, the amount of tables will be relatively small.

hey there emerald, just let me know the time at which you want to start your tournament, may be I can help you if i'm available at that time. additionally, you can inform me on WhatsApp as well.

Hey Em, put me in, please!
