Scrabulous vs. Hasbro

1. If you are a word game geek and you never heard of scrabulous, give yourself a knock on the head and go to this site www.scrabulous.com .

2. I was told about this game about a year ago and I have seen this site grow and improve ever since. Just recently they used their very own favicon...awwww..

3. What I like about scrabulous:-

  • You don't have to waste time setting up the game board and deal with the tiles (how many times did we lose a single tile after the game and spend so much time hunting for it only to find the god forsaken piece wedged in the crevasses of your shirt/blouse?
  • with the application, I can try some words that I am not even sure it exists , but if it does, I will et points for it. "SELENITE" was my two triple word bingo that gave me over 150 points!
  • it's fast and timed game. Just the way i like it.
4. listen to this Facebook asked to pull Scrabulous

5. Enough said, read the rest from the link above,... care for a game of scrabble at scrabulous.com anyone? It's totally FREE...

Oh yeah.. these are the guys who created scrabulous. That's the problem with computer programming experts from India, they lack originality and never bother about copyrights. But, hey! they know it when they see a door of opportunity.

Buzz off Hasbro, you have been wasting your time developing more and more new but uninteresting games instead of bringing forward your pre-existing, ever green, widely accepted creations to the virtual world where the nerds and geeks are densely populated. To these two guys here.. good luck with the lawsuit.
