Seems like we have a bunch of literate folks here. A game of scrabble might be interesting. Anyone interested, post here (limited-time offer, naturally). First four people to want in get in. Leave your dictionaries at the door. 😃

Quick second reply to wonder how you’ll organise this, and make sure I get an email when you reply…

Sure, you can play. I dunno…I suppose I’ll just get a game room, and post the name here, and people who want to play can post their yahoo! IDs. Unless someone has a better idea.

Sure thing Abby. If Robin is still about we can get a three-way game going, but if not, I’ll sure play. We should come up with a better what to organize this. I’m open to suggestions.

Incidentally, my yahoo ID is give above. When I’m online, i have Y! messenger on, even though 99% of the time I’m on “invisible”. Feel free to add me if you want to play, but **only** for that purpose. I get enough pointless interruptions as it is 😃

Sign me up as well. I prefer we play in a ranked area, but not that picky. I go by, if you can believe it, llamapoet. I’m there now in Social Lounge 27, but can go anywhere.
