Anonymous Coward User ID: 15146787 Canada 07/08/2012 04:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Friends.. Quoting: DOT 2 DOT Do you ever feel bad about winning? For example, I've been beating my friends so often and by such lengths in scrabble, that when I win yet another game, I feel almost bad. After awhile, it's not that much fun to win anymore, it makes me feel guilty. Can you relate? You could try playing a game that someone else is any good at. Apparently your friends suck bad at scrabble. |

INK3 User ID: 19354999 United States 07/08/2012 04:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wonder if anyone plays cards anymore? Pinochle, Canasta Spades, Hearts etc. I remember when I was a kid that was a real social interaction with people in the neighborhood. Maybe we lost something important. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19368008 My parents and their friends played Canasta and Poker. I played a few times with them when I was in my twenties, and it was fun. I don't know anyone that does that now. Too bad :( "When tyrants tremble in their fear, and hear their death knell ringing, When friends rejoice both far and near, how can I keep from singing" page7 |

The way I like to "play" scrabble is more about making interesting words, and the aesthetic layout and composition of the board itself. I find that more gratifying, and sometimes forego a high scoring word to achieve the former considerations.
