Poetry Scrabble is an interactive community poetry experience conceived by West Hollywood City Poet Laureate Jen Cheng, inviting community members to play with word tiles on a word art sculpture. Together, in the courtyard of Long Hall, we will create collaborative poems with words celebrating the visual art of the Vitam Picturarum (Life in Pictures) Exhibition. At 7:45 pm, Cheng will perform the newly created poems celebrating the experience of this word art experience.
But there is also a scrabble game natively for Ubuntu, called PyScrabble. You can install it via executing sudo apt-get install pyscrabble in the terminal or search for "PyScrabble" in the Software Center and install it.
I also found it convenient to put its dictionary as text the file !/.../ScrabbleAI-master/Backend/enable into my web browser for viewing and definition lookups, which would be a nice new feature for the game to do.
then goto menu (top right) preferences, Language, choose English (it is written in hindu or somesuch). add a dictionary, just a text file with words and one word per line.there was an issue with the open this text file up, that dialogue stayed up, so I had to close the program , which it did gracefully close,and run in terminal again
Since there doesn't seem to be any SCRABBLE games for download or purchase yet that are specifically Windows 7 compatible, there's really only one good option if you want to play against a computer online...
But if you sign up, you can play against the "Robot" at different difficulty levels (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert or Master), and you have the option of playing against other online players in different free game rooms. The only real downfall of playing on Pogo are the ads that are plastered all over the screen. It's not that big of deal, but it could become annoying if you let it.
If you're a paid member, you can play against other paid "Club Pogo" members, earning badges and rewards at the same time. Plus, NO ADS. But if you can suck up the advertising, don't bother paying... just bother playing. Who wants to pay an annual fee to play SCRABBLE?
There are other options online, but most require a social play and no solo games against AI, like Facebook and the Internet SCRABBLE Club. And there are programs, like SCRABBLE Champion Edition and SCRABBLE Plus PC, that aren't specifically for Windows 7, but are rumored to work just fine, although there is no online play.
I didn't know that there are no online SCRABBLE games on w7 yet--Do you also mean no vista either ? I do have W7 professional which works for XP, but my Old SCRABBLE wont work there , But maybe a new ONLINE XP equivelant would do the trick.
Firstly, Ubisoft is a company, a video game publisher / developer to be precise. The only game I could find by them predating 2001 was SCRABBLE (1999), which was originally playable on Windows 95 and 98, but probably worked fine on your XP machine. Does a game this old even have ONLINE capabilities? I can't find real specifics for the game.
Secondly, there are "online" games for Windows 7, but as of yet, there aren't any downloadable or disc versions. That just means you can play things like Pogo and Facebook without downloading software. If you're looking for online play with a full screen board, ISC's WordBiz could be the way to go, but it's purely online play against other Scrabblers (no computer opponents), and it's not the prettiest way to play, either. It doesn't specify which Windows OS's it will work on though.
1. Scrabble Interactive - 2009 Edition: It's full screen play with computer opponents (and also made by Ubisoft). You could find it on Amazon, possibly in stores. It runs on both Vista and XP. Could cost you between $10 and $20, depending on where you look.
3. Scrabble Champion Edition: This is a version of what I play on my computer. It's simple, very simple. And it's not full screen (at least not on my computer... I have a Mac). There's no online play. It's purely computer opponents. Runs on Vista, XP, Me, 2000 and 98. It's relatively cheap at about $6 or $7.
4. Scrabble PLUS: This is a new game out that runs on Vista, XP or 2000. It has the classic game, plus it has different versions, like Scrabble Golf. I prefer to stick with the classic version, so all of these new and "fun" games are a turn off, but it does have the real version. I hear (or read) this game works fine for Windows 7 users, but I'm not sure if it has an online play option. I think this is about $20, but there is a FREE TRIAL you can download, but it only works for 60 minutes, supposedly.
Hope this helps. I haven't really found a Scrabble program I'm in love with, so I tend to play my games across multiple programs and platforms (i.e. Scrabble for Facebook and iPod, Scrabble for Mac, Pogo, WordBiz and so forth).
I always play facebook scrabble. Its a good place to find friends too that you can chat to as well as play. Watch out for people using
annagrammer.com though, somtimes its a pain because they wont start cheating until either they are losing or halfway through. Personally I just ignore the fact that my stats are damaged and quit the game instantly if I suspect they are cheating but I guess it comes down to judgement. I had someone use DRAGOON on triple word score last night. I quit straight away. Its hard to tell, but I dont think they know what dragoon is. ZINCOUS was another.
Matt, quitting early is being a worse sport than them cheating, because you don't actually know if they are or not. I can understand the frustration, but rather than expecting them to know your preferences in advance, why not just clarify at the start of the game?
Multiple issues with the new Scrabble -letters not clearing from board when starting new game, letters shifting on the board when you are playing so that you can't tell where to play your word, Pogo not allowing you to play a word (one that you know is valid ie "HER"). You end up having to pass and hope that it allows you to play a word on your next move. Pogo - time to fix these glitches or I will move on to some other game site. Used to love scrabble but this is ruining it for me!
To help the Pogo team work through these issues, would you be able to share the technical information from our information request thread? The team is trying to make SCRABBLE the best game it can be, and this information is very important to that. It would be greatly appreciated.
You'll probably never see this but it will do me good to vent anyway. I cannot seem to get through a Scrabble game anymore without some kind of glitch. It's usually telling me (or the other player) our time has expired immediately after I begin my turn. The little clock ticking the seconds away turns red and it will not accept any word I play. The only options are to pass and miss a turn or exit the game. Why don't they do something about all these problems? It's next to impossible to report a problem and totally impossible to talk to someone. I wish another gamesite would come up with Scrabble so I could leave this disaster! Please reply if you do, by some stroke of luck, get this message.
Hello. I have played your Scrabble game for years now but since the last change, I have had a lot of trouble playing and finishing your games. For one, the timer will say my time has run out when it isn't even my turn or the other player has only seconds before had their go. Two, when a player leaves and then I replace with a bot. Two thirds of the screen will slide over to the left so all I can do is tell my opponent what has happened and then leave the game. Thirdly, no matter what browser or how many deleted cookies or scans I do. It doesn't help. This has been going on now for months. Why oh why have you not done anything? I have noticed a decline in players since the changes so it is harder to get someone to play at certain times than it used to and then maybe I might be lucky and actually finish a game. I try and play two to three games a day but now I dread even trying to play.
Have you tried closing the scrabble app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the scrabble game 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the scrabble app to close it (you could also 'close' the apps that are in the taskbar), and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
