| Words That Can Suck My Left Nut |
I started playing WWF out of morbid curiosity and have only won twice. I've probably played at least thirty games...they should change the name of Words With Friends to What The Fuck Word Is That? or Go Fuck Yourself, You're Not My Friend Anymore. It's like Scrabble on steroids.
My first game I played I thought I was doing well with the words I was playing, the score was close and then it happened. My opponent put down a ridiculous word that was worth 89 points and crushed my game. Eh, whatever, I can rematch and try again. This time I won! With one win under my belt I was confident....

| That's right, call 911 bitch, I am murdering you! |
Actually I was cocky, I felt like I could take on anyone. Words With Friends was a simple game that I had mastered without an issue. I challenged four friends at a time, thinking that I could easily render them futile and begin my reign as the WWF Champion...wrong.
I might as well have been playing words like "cat" and "mom" compared to the words that were popping up from my so-called friends. They were playing words like "yautia" and "fermi". Even as I just typed those words, Firefox put the little red line under them and does not recognize them as words...what the hell?

| If you can't say it, it's not a word.... |
I was dying, how did these people I have known for a long time suddenly become Stephen Hawking and Webster himself? I know I am not the smartest guy around but I do consider myself up there in the brain category when it comes to my friends...meaning we are all about the same IQ level. I was getting pissed, frustrated and dumb. What was their strategy? How were they coming up with these words from an ancient language? Then it hit me, they must be just tossing letters up there and seeing if it makes a word...very clever....

| Slut is too a word... |
Then I found out that there are cheats and apps that play the game for you. Yeah, that's what was going on, you can put the letters you have in your pile into a calculator and it will tell you the best ones to use to form a word.
Well doesn't that just take the wind out of your sails, you have to depend on artificial intelligence to play a game of juiced up Scrabble? You're pitiful. You're a sad individual. I will not stoop to your level, I will continue to get my ass handed to me each and every game playing words that I learned in 1st grade. Now, excuse me, my iPad just chriped saying I had a WWF move to do...let me see here, oh, come on! I call bullshit on this one, isn't ganef the wizard from The Lord of the Rings and how is it worth 36 points? Eat shit Words With Friends, eat shit.

| Something I won't be saying anytime soon.... |
Almost makes me happy I have no friends to speak of and therefore don't have to play this game.
ReplyDeleteI was suckered into it....
DeleteI'm a total Scrabble-aholic. My BFF admittedly cheats using some kind of online word list. The Hubby always tells me how ridiculous it is, since half the time I can make up a word and it's accepted. Still totally want to know what "Qi" and "Za" are. LOL
ReplyDeleteThat was my argument a few days ago, my friend just throws the letters up and prays that they make a word....
DeleteHaven't played this particular game. I remember playing Scrabble with my cheating cousins making up words that even Webster didn't know. :)
ReplyDeleteI say if your spell check picks it up and says its wrong, then it's wrong...
DeleteNew Year's Eve 2002/2003 I was playing Scrabble. I was laying waste to my wife, Uncle and Aunt. I laid down the word "fungoes" and they denied me. I told them it was term for flyballs hit with a fungo bat. With no dictionary available the voted down my word that I later verified. They wouldn't even let me shorten it to "fungo" the hardliners. I still won the game, but even since then I have realized that I cannot tolerate a game that masquerades as one of skill but really isn't anything more than luck and rewards arcane knowledge. I now only play with my mother-in-law because she loves the game and it is my quest to figure out how to beat her mastery of the triple word score using the aforementioned "qi" and "za."
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, we stopped playing before midnight because Lisa went into our labor with our oldest daughter who was born on New Year's Day.
DeleteThat is the reason I am still playing WWF, I need to master the scoring, I still don't get it. Once I master it, I'm done.
