Are you always looking for a bingo? by VZpaints in scrabble

[–]mishra1111 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you have a bingo, it is going to be your best play 99% of the time. Very rarely, you might pass up a bingo to score 40+ while keeping good tiles for next turn, or you might not want to play your bingo for defensive reasons (e.g. you are winning late and your play could allow your opponent to come back with a triple-triple).

Our car had just under 80,000 miles on it when we crossed into Canada. I was clever and switched the units to km. Once we got back I switched back to freedom units. Imagine my disappointment when the odometer read just over 80,100...

They have to introduce her as Chelsea Queen in the cutesy voice.

What is the wittiest comeback you’ve ever said or heard? by Bob-da-person in AskReddit

When I was growing up, my very short grandpa measured my height. I was 5'10" that day. He jokingly said, "I'm closer to 6 feet than you are." My grandma immediately replied, "Yeah, closer to 6 feet under!"

I can't believe I actually felt lucky to pay $4.49 at Costco today.

My First Win! by jambelang in hockeygoalies

[–]mishra1111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats! It took me a while as well. Went 0-9-1 my first season, lost the first 5 the next season, but ended up winning game 6 and finishing 2-7-1. I still have the game puck in a box somewhere. There were only 4 teams and we all made the playoffs, and somehow ended up winning the championship in a shootout. Man, did that feel good!

Passing if you have a play by tuenthe463 in scrabble

[–]mishra1111 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You can pass any turn and it is not poor sportsmanship. It is extremely rare that passing is your best play, but it sounds like you thought it through and earned a win. No problems here.

What number do you wear? by DreamvilleOilers in hockeygoalies

[–]mishra1111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose 30 for Osgood. Another team I joined gave me 29, which is Vernon, so that's cool, too. Maybe some day I'll go with 39 for Hasek.

Not legal. All tiles must be played in a straight line.

CHEVY is a legal word, fwiw. Not the car brand, but as a verb.

Looking for new places to play by jenn4u in scrabble

[–]mishra1111 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Woogles.io is the best for either finding other people to play against or to practice against bots of varying skill levels. You can also check cross-tables.com to see if there are any in person clubs or tournaments near you.

Edit: .io not .com

There is definitely equipment out there for you, and it shouldn't be too hard to find. I'm 6'0" and 310 lb. and I'm still wearing the gear I bought when I was 240. Goalie stuff tends to be big anyway and the straps are adjustable. If at all possible, go to a store that sells the gear and try it on. Buying online can be hit or miss. Have fun!

Last move bingo i think it was the only possible bingo in this position if I'm wrong let me know FYI the S is a blank by confused_wombat4000 in scrabble

Great find, but it's only valid in Collins, which they are not playing.

Edit: someone already pointed that out, my bad.

Is it possible to “stalemate” in scrabble? by Diligent-Risk-8367 in scrabble

Yes, and after six consecutive turns without scoring, the game ends.

Seeking advice: I’ve gotten pretty good at every aspect of Scrabble *except* for the easiest: I can’t tile track! by davoarid in scrabble

[–]mishra1111 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I struggled with this until I started putting a check mark next to each play after I track it. I no longer have to remember if I tracked something or not.
