Apparently, according to Google, Lexulous is a better place for online scrabble. I'm checking it out now.

Bet I could kick all your asses in Scrabble, assuming someone can find a free online browser based one~ (well FD might destroy me. I *am* the family champion though)
Family champs count for very little, I was there and now my skills have rusted away :(

I've heard of that, but I could've sworn it was like, an iphone app or something. Guess not.
It is an app.

Have YOU earned over 50 points with a single tile? Didn't think so! Eat that, x in the triple word score square!

It was my moment of Scrabble glory.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Damn Cybercrime law has been passed here in the Philippines.

Also, the elections are coming very soonish. I believe they will utilize that law to keep dissenters from speaking. I'm not really sure how they're going to handle this, really, since we lack enough prison space for all of us Filipinos.

I'm pretty sure we're all guilty of pirating stuff from the internet over here, so how the hell would they be able to handle this? Don't think they have any idea on how to do their job too. As of now, the DOJ is training about 150 people to monitor the net. How the hell are they going to ensure that everyone isn't actually committing a crime?

Nice going, PH.

They don't need prison space, they're only going to arrest the people they want to get rid of. Welcome to your new police state.

Yay me!

See you guys in a few, or maybe in a year or so. Next thing that's going to happen, a curtain will fall down and conceal the entire internet from my eyes. China's Internet: Part 2 is about to happen.

So, the games are timed, you can't set up your own rooms, and balut is not a word. I'll keep looking.

I feel your pain.

Though, flaws are obviously expected with all the S.O.P's here. I just hope something good comes out of this and this won't turn the wrong way.

I think the implication is that the sudden repression will cause anti-censorship backlash from the public, which would be good.

You could try the EA version of Scrabble online, I used to play that for a while.

So, apparently, the actual best places to play scrabble online are pogo.com (owned by EA) and Yahoo! I'm not sure how I feel about that.
