I was looking at the illegal words and I noticed some words that are actually in the Scrabble dictionary as two letter words. Words like un, re, and ed are Scrabble words. Though I guess their meanings differ from the prefixes and suffixes we know of. I believe that un just means one, re refers to the musical note, and ed means education.
Sometimes I like to play Solitare Scrabble; the object of that variation is to use every single tile in the bag. If you have any left over, you lose. If the bag is empty, you win. (The closest I ever got was 3 tiles left in the bag.)
edit: went to the old scrabble video and it didn't say offensive words are banned. I think in previous rules, offensive words are banned. It's not mentioned here. (Does that mean one can play the F word?)
@@670839245 It all depends on the lexicon you use. The one sold in North American stores does not contain swear words or words used only as slurs. The NA tournament word list allows cuss words but not slurs.
The new rules say that slurs, not swear words, are banned. This includes words that have any sort of racial, homosexual, or other such connotation. However, if they have a different meaning which isn’t slur related, it is still valid. In other words, words that have a sole meaning of offensiveness are removed
Okay, so it's only at the very end we finally get a rule change...the player who first went out gets as a bonus the added total of the other players' "leftovers". One thing I find fascinating as how the challenge rule adds a poker/bluffing element to the game. For example, you could play a really weird looking but legal word hoping your opponent will challenge it and lose their turn. OR you can play an illegal but reasonable sounding word hoping your opponent won't challenge. Also the capitalization rule only applies to words that are always used capitalized. So words like Jack and Japan are legal as they also have lowercase uses/meanings. Also acronyms are only illegal if they are always capitalized like AWOL. Ones that are usually used in lowercase like scuba or laser are legal.
Fun fact "awol" is actually a valid word because sometimes it doesn't have to be capitalized! For the bluffing point, that also happens with set-ups as well. Suppose you play an A next to a triple-letter square for 6 points when you could've gotten 7 in another spot. You could do this bluff making the opponent think you have a Z for a massive score next turn, so they sacrificed 10 points to block the A, preventing ZA. In reality, you don't have the Z and you made your opponent sac 10 points at the cost of 1 point
UN, ED and RE are valid words in both standard scrabble dictionaries. Pretty sure EN is, too. They're words by themselves. The game can and often is also played with two players rather than four.
If you mean at 1:40 it's because he already played Baton on the same turn and the S wasn't connected to it. Bands is a valid word there but he would have to wait until the next turn to play it
can u cover what happens if you play a premium tile that connects for 2 words? does it count as a double? e.g i form zeaL and Land with the L on a double word score. does the bonus count for both words?
Especially if you’re the type bringing in the dictionary and the strategy of doing the boring, yet annoying plays to minimize the other people’s points.
I feel that the rule used to be that when you exchange the tiles, you used to just discard it rather than return it to the bag. Is this how the 2023 version differs?
My Variation: During a challenge, if the challenger successfully challenges an illegal word, they can either get an extra turn, or deduct the challenged player's points based on the value of that illegal word. The challenger gets to choose the bonus. If it is your turn, and you have placed a letter on a "Double Word Score" or "Triple word score" when it isn't used, while forming multiple words using this square, you can multiply all the words you used in this turn.
How is the scoring if the I put ‘s’ on a word plus it is place on a bonus square then I make another word. So basically it is on the corner of 2 connecting words. The bonus square applies on both words since it is in the corner, right? Thank you for the help.
Bonuses can only be used once so it would only apply to one word, as you’re using the same letter to join both words, I would apply the bonus to the higher point word and then just the letter points for your second word but bonus tiles cannot be played twice.
I'm confused about the end score. Does each player subtract the value of their remaining tiles or does the person who used all their tiles add everyone remaining tiles values ot his score?
"kwjibo" is not a word by any definition. "kwyjibo", on the other hand, is a made-up word from the Simpsons, and is probably what you are trying to reference.
He also could've said, "If you spell a word that doesn't exist in the Scrabble Dictionary, give your tiles to the challenger, and you are eliminated from the game."
Helpful hint: get someone who is at least competent at math to keep score instead of whoever did so in this video. (I kinda understand how they got 77 for Jack but have no idea how Susan got 144.)
Fck me,I was looking at a few videos, yeah OK pretty easy. Then I watch your video, and now all of a sudden this simple game needs studying a bit if to play by all the rules . Or is this just the usa version because I'm in 🇬🇧 Lol 🤦♂️ well I only got this game for my younger sister and we will just play with the basic instructions, omfg 😮😊
Any word is allowed as long as those playing agree. We've done dialect games. And yes, this does not apply to official tournaments but no one but absolute dorks cares about scrabble tournaments.
Serious players use pro-tiles that are smooth all around and you cannot feel for letters like you can for those cheapskate titles. I don't know if there are pro-title sets for Super Scrabble though...
The way Jim uses "Misspleled" and "Madup" as examples of illegal words at 3:40 are great. Thanks

The rules are the same as regular scrabble, with these changes. For a referesher of those rules, check out this video.
Could you please do a tutorial on the game of life goals card game? I never could grasp the rules but you're so good at explaining things
Finally. Scrabble remastered
Scrabble V2.024 patch notes
This is the best description I found ❤❤Thanks
Sometimes I like to play Solitare Scrabble; the object of that variation is to use every single tile in the bag. If you have any left over, you lose. If the bag is empty, you win. (The closest I ever got was 3 tiles left in the bag.)
Same! I also used to do that when I became bored of playing the original game.
This seems extremely easy. Make multiple long words with many open spaces with vowels near them, then play a bunch of two letter words at the end.
Wait, there was a rule change for Scrabble?
I didn’t know that
Yes
edit: went to the old scrabble video and it didn't say offensive words are banned.

nice thanks. I was looking to buy this game

What was wrong with "BANDS"?
If you mean at 1:40 it's because he already played Baton on the same turn and the S wasn't connected to it. Bands is a valid word there but he would have to wait until the next turn to play it
Props to Susan for winning "How to play Scrabble (2024 rules)".
Geograhical place or sport'club can be used eg CHINA , or Liverpool
CHINA can be used, since china also refers to porcelain objects.
how did he even apply the rules of illegal words to the illegal words
Are you going to make a playlist of your remakes?
can u cover what happens if you play a premium tile that connects for 2 words?
does it count as a double?
e.g i form zeaL and Land with the L on a double word score.
does the bonus count for both words?
Yes, a tile on a DWS or TWS that is involved in 2 words doubles or triples the value of both words.
Can you cash tiles if there are less the 7 left in bag
Scrabble : How to play
The objective of the game is to ruin friendships.
😂 Like Monopoly!
Usually UNO, but this can be applicable
Especially if you’re the type bringing in the dictionary and the strategy of doing the boring, yet annoying plays to minimize the other people’s points.
Bro thank you for teaching me
I feel that the rule used to be that when you exchange the tiles, you used to just discard it rather than return it to the bag. Is this how the 2023 version differs?
No, it always was putting the tiles back in the bag
The U is worth 3 points?
Good tutorial!
Hasbro: wait, is prefix and suffix words allowed?
Triple S Games: you can’t use prefix and suffix words.
You can’t use prefixes and suffixes if they aren’t part of a word, you may use them when they are part of a word
Some common prefixes and suffixes (e.g. RE, UN, OUT, OVER, ED, ER, ISM, NESS) are words of their own and are allowed in official Scrabble lexica.
Thanks❤
the most op letter: s
Thank You, Jim!!💯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very nice. Only 1 section is different.
Very helpful
So the new rule is that you can choose to shuffle your rack and score no points for doing so
No, we've always had that rule.

both
3:15 is it a reference to the game of the same name?
4:10
My scrabble ap was deleted, along with others. Tried to get them back with no success. Please help!!
I did not recognize any changes to the rules
Where can I buy this?
Everywhere
But can we use "Kwyjibo" as a word?
"kwjibo" is not a word by any definition. "kwyjibo", on the other hand, is a made-up word from the Simpsons, and is probably what you are trying to reference.
4:09
Nice for studiying🎉
Now do scrabble bingo and scrabble pass
He also could've said, "If you spell a word that doesn't exist in the Scrabble Dictionary, give your tiles to the challenger, and you are eliminated from the game."
what if your opponent has the same word?
Also John does play cuz it's a bathroom. Many "NAMES" do play
Helpful hint: get someone who is at least competent at math to keep score instead of whoever did so in this video. (I kinda understand how they got 77 for Jack but have no idea how Susan got 144.)

Foreign words are acceptable if they are in the dictionary, as many are. He should have clarified that.
21st
psychopaths might use swear words...
Are swear words allowed???
If the dictionary you use has them, then yes.
Nahhh nah nah nah nah nah!
Any word is allowed as long as those playing agree. We've done dialect games. And yes, this does not apply to official tournaments but no one but absolute dorks cares about scrabble tournaments.
“misspleled
Nahh, scrabble got balance changes 💀

Scrabble in cheap plastic tiles. Sad...
Serious players use pro-tiles that are smooth all around and you cannot feel for letters like you can for those cheapskate titles. I don't know if there are pro-title sets for Super Scrabble though...
