Abe and Bigface play a game of SCRABBLE.

Take a look at my attachment to see how it turns out!

What do you think?

PS: I know that 'Grinder' is wrong. I just wanted to have 'RuptureFarms' on the Triple Word Score!

Cute, although Molluck is also spelt wrong. Who won?

I'm intrigued to know how they constructed such long terms using just 7 letters each round.

It seems a Fuzzle has been gnawing at their "R" counter at the beginning of RUN.

I had to spell Molluck wrong, I ran out of U's and C's.

Bigface won in the end, Abe started off with 'Farms'. Then BigFace put 'Rupture' in front of it on a Triple Word Score. Which also got him an extra 50 points as he used all seven of his letters.

From then on, Bigface was in the lead.

And yes, my dog chewed up the R...

Hehe nice one...

This is how I picture BigFace when he sees Abe spelling "Molluck" wrong during the game

Well that's bullshit. You don't get the score because "Grindem" isn't a word. Scrabble is about using your brain, and you should have tried harder to find a different word instead of bending the rules. Perhaps I'm being harsh, but when I play Scrabble, I play it hardcore.

Also, "Anti-chant drone" is a stretch. I've never heard them referred to anything other than "chant suppressors".

Fuzzle Guy · #14 08-08-2009, 02:06 PM

Calm down.

***Xavier*** · #15 08-08-2009, 02:14 PM

I kind of agree with SS here, the base idea was pretty good, but it has at least 3 errors in it. It feels rushed and I think it could be done better, it's definitely worth a second try though.

On the other hand FG's right, no need to get excited about this, it's just some harmless fun

Harmless fun? HARMLESS FUN?!

Someone should tackle Sloggle next.

Sekto Springs · #17 08-08-2009, 03:02 PM

Does anyone remember that episode of the Simpsons where Bart and Homer combined Scrabble and Battleship into what looked like a very fun game? I think we should develop such a game. Now.

Also, Monopoly Oddworld Edition anyone?

This is a subject which has been raised in several threads in the last few years.

I think http://www.tdcgames.com/MYO.htm would be the best way to go about making an Oddworld Monopoly, but unfortunately, I don't have the 30 odd (No pun intended ^^) quid it costs to buy one. I bought one about four or five years ago, but I didn't make it Oddworld based.

Youngsy · #19 08-10-2009, 03:09 AM

Never insult the honor that is Scrabble! But seriously I agree it's worth another shot.

Aleks55 · #20 08-11-2009, 11:47 PM

lol not bad.

AlexFili · #21 08-12-2009, 12:15 AM

That's pun-tastic!

Yes, it is just harmless fun.

When me and my brother finished a game of Scrabble we decided to make Abe's Oddysee words, as we were bored, then took a picture of it. In fact, I didn't make it especially for the forum, it was done months ago...
