Cheffie, you were NOT kidding. Satan kicked my ass six ways from Sunday. Is there any way we could have a threesome? You know, me and Cheffie teaming up against the Dark Prince? Satan, let’s do it again soon - while painful, humiliating, and not at all what I expected, it turned out to be both fun and educational. I’m sure it will be more pleasant for me once I’m back in practice. ---

Zenster, I was hoping you’d say that! Here’s how you can [participate.](http://www.scrabble.com/)😉 ---

People tried to warn me when I first accepted Satan’s challenge, and I didn’t listen either. He humiliated me by margins of more than 200 points with dismal regularity. However, I am humbly glad to report that it IS possible to beat Mephistopheles (wow, wouldn’t THAT be an awesome word?) at Scrabble. Drain Bead has beaten him on occasion, and… _drumroll_ _ **I won the last game I played against him.** _ _cymbal crash_ I edged him out by about six points. I did the “happy chef dance” for a moment and then remembered that Satan has whupped me more than a dozen times, so what was I being so smug about? NOW THEN, BRIAN… I was wondering the same thing as Maggie: is it possible, using your e-mail scrabble program, to have a three- or four-player game? Inquiring minds want to know. [hijack] I got the promo CD you sent, dude… and the Tubes rock just as hard now as they did 20 years ago. Thanks a LOT! It was really thoughtful of you. ---

Cheffie, perhaps you and I are a better match? I’ll happily download the program - we can practice. ---

You know, you really should know better than to have the words “Satan” and “ass” in the same sentence. But I digress… I would be interested in an online Scrabble match. Not tonight though, I’m supposed to be working 🙂 Maybe this weekend. ---

But seriously, I’d love to play scrabble with you. Once you’ve bought the program, let me know and I’ll give you my private email addy. (Hotmail is too squirrely about attachments.) ---

Oh… this is about scrabble. I’m not sure whether or not to be depressed. ---

Count me in sometime (earlier) but I must protest the bait and switch usage of “Maggie’s ass!” ---

No three-person games allowed with the game. In fact, us serious Scrabble players don’t ever do games with more than two people - it takes away a ton of the skill and makes it more luck-based. I am starting another game with each of you now! 🙂 * * * Yer pal, Satan - Commissioner, [The Teeming Minions](http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/full/show?lid=39428&page=leaguehome) \*TIME ELAPSED SINCE I QUIT SMOKING: Five months, three weeks, four days, 2 hours, 24 minutes and 56 seconds. 7124 cigarettes not smoked, saving $890.50.

Maybe I’m just stupid here, but I’m trying to buy the game, but I can’t find the “add to cart” button anywhere on the page. Also, it doesn’t seem to say how much it costs, which I usually like to know before buying something. Can anyone help me, please? I’m not a terribly good player, but I do okay for somebody who hasn’t memorized all the q without u words. 🙂 I would love to find somebody else to play with, esp. since MisterTot is going to Poland and I’m going to be all alone. ---

tater, I ran into the same problem. Satan, how much does it cost? For the record, final score of round 2: Satan - 420 Maggie - 362 A 60-point spread, down from more than 200 the last time. Cheffie, how’d you do? ---

The game is less than $20 list price. Available at almost all online software emporiums (Emporii?) and most of the real stores for same. * * * Yer pal, Satan - Commissioner, [The Teeming Minions](http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/full/show?lid=39428&page=leaguehome) _TIME ELAPSED SINCE I QUIT SMOKING: Six months, 21 hours, 53 minutes and 17 seconds. 7356 cigarettes not smoked, saving $919.56.
