I GOTTA tell you guys about this. You are the only ones who will appreciate it!
I was just playing Literati in Yahoo, and was able to make the word “KNITS” two times!
OMG! I used to be a literati addict. Unfortunately, after I started to pick up a lot of arcane words (which is inevitable when you’re playing it constantly), I ran across a couple of sore losers who accused me of cheating and it really, really, really upset me. I just felt so frustrated that someone could even think that about me, you know? Most people were really nice, but after a two very hurtful experiences, I just quit. Have you ever had that problem?
Anyway, I don’t mean to be a downer. (Sorry – I guess seeing that board just brought back some old memories!) It’s really neat that you got KNITs in twice. I do understand. It’s funny knitting always seems to be at the back (or front) of a knitter’s mind, isn’t it? I have caught myself (more than once) saying to DH: “honey, have you checked the yarn,” instead of “mail.” 
Wishful thinking!
I used to play that, too, but I only ever play with people I “know” from somewhere. I used to spend hours playing either that or canasta.
That looks like fun…wtg with knits! I’m not a very computer game kinda girl, though…back in the day, pinball was my game, still play it at the arcade! Boy, I just dated myself :roflhard:
Hi Jane :waving: I’m no expert, but I do alright in the game. It’s a nice distraction to me. No one has ever accused me of cheating, but I’ve lost a couple games in a strange way before. One time, the game just ended, and the other person won, but it wasn’t a timed game, and I wasn’t late in putting down my word. So, SOME people do cheat. I guess that’s why some people just assume that a good player cheats. I understand your anger. I was ADDICTED to Literati before I started talking to everyone here in the KH forum. Now, my addiction is in the right place! 
Cate, I’ll be happy to play with you sometime! I’m “unkoine” in yahoo. I’m a slow player though…just to warn you. I can’t do a timed game, because it stresses me out! :oo:
Becca, I LOVE pinball! My husband and I will play it when we come across a machine. We have totally different styles, though. He moves with his whole body when he plays, and I only move my fingers.
We’ll have to play sometime, Sandy! :cheering:
I inherited love of pinball from my dad and I’m young. 
Cool! I would offer to play right now, but I’m too busy dancing to Earth Wind and Fire! :teehee: I just can’t sit still and CANNOT concentrate on literati when I listen to that music. 
I’d be totally interested in playing too, if it’s with you guys! I used to prefer timed games because I’d get bored waiting, but now that I’m a knitter, I can just keep my yarn and needles handy. Just let me know when, and we’d probably be able to work something out!
Oh, that would be cool! We could have a game with all of us at the same time!
