Bloody American dictionary...

[watervole]

Just as LJ can't understand words like itemise, neither can the TWL word list in Scrabble.  Life is simpler when everything ends in ize, but they're not the spellings I grew up with.

Which is why most of my more recent games are using SOWPODS, but it's still damn annoying when it costs you a seven-letter word in an older game that is still TWL.

SOWPODS     is like a combination of UK and American dictionaries.

Are you facebooking scrabble or something else? Want a game?

Yes, Scrabulous on Facebook. Wait about a week for me to finish one of my current games and then feel free to challenge me - just make sure it's SOWPODS and 'regular'.
