Convoluted, but okay. Doesn't change the fact that I'm going to get creamed lol.

No mass email to start the season? Not everyone looks at the Facebook page.

I'm aware, we are working on getting the website to automatically send those emails. Hopefully it will be sent very soon.

So anxious to be in group 2 this season... I feel like a AAA player getting called up to the majors.

I'm getting killed so far lol, though I've had a couple of < 20 point round losses, which stings. You're a bit better than me, so hopefully you fare better.

Yeah me too but so far I'm just going to blame it on the disadvantage of starting games. I'm 1-0 in round 1s where the other person started and 0 for a lot in games where I started.

I just had a round with a pathetically short second freeze, I saw STRIP STRIPS STRIPE STRIPES TRIPE TRIP TRIPS and STRAP STRAPS TRAP TRAPS during it and just then time ran out and I was only able to get one or two of those. My reaction:

That's the worst feeling ever, when you notice a rich vein of words and variants as time expires.

EDIT: A 5 point (game) loss to Judge Laziest Hand. Kill me.

Hi I been playing this game For a while now and just found out about this league of elite players. So I proceeded to signup for some challenging games and tournament style play.

Then when I go and sign in at swfleague.com, it says it's invalid. I followed all instructions to sign up and get in the new members section for the tryouts.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong? Please help!

My username in swf is FingerFoods

Hi,

You can only log in once you have been placed in the try out group. I have just added you so you should receive a email with your login details. Let me know if you don't get it!

Seem to be a ton of sign up issues that are easily submitted... maybe adding a little note that if you have trouble then here are the solutions that tend to work

I swear, I lost sooo much ground on this one day where I played several games on a few hours' sleep and got like 4-7 points out of 20 total. Never again! I'm gonna make sure I only play league games under optimal conditions from now on. I'm addicted, so I couldn't help myself lol.
Also, don't play league games while your 16 yr old kid is driving. He's had his permit for a few months now, but apparently I still am not calm enough to play well while he's behind the wheel. My games today reflect that. Actually playing while in a vehicle isn't great anyway. The motion causes too many swiping mistakes. I hate it when the Vision gives me words I could SWEAR I've already entered.

Later, once home and calm, I did break my all time score record with a great game against shtarkshark. I lost the first two rounds, first by 20 pts, then by 6 pts, and won the last round with 46 pts. Game total 6578-6558. Whew.

Hi, I've signed up for the league, but swfleague.com is not letting me use the swf username I've always had - babs toyfish - Is it because there is a space? It has me signed up as "babs" (though I signed up as babs toyfish), so all my opponents are seeing the wrong name for me. I tried to change it through the "change username" page, but am getting an error message. Please help! Thanks

I've found PIRATE many many times. I've also found GORILLA and OSTRICH.

If any addicts out there want more word finding action, the second season of the Ruzzle league is starting in a few days. It works basically the same as the SWF league did pre-fancy spreadsheet era.

www.ruzzleleague.com

Join the ruzzle group on facebook and send your screenname to Danny S. if you want to play, or if you don't have a facebook account you can PM me.

I think it would be nice if we could see the "Top 10" and "Player's List" pages be made relevant to the current season (in addition to the "all time" / "all seasons" format that we currently have).

I was thinking that the avg score and avg words on the player page should be from the most recent full season played. It would give a better indication of the player level than an average over many seasons.
