haha best strategy ever

2/8/2008 4:10:02 PM

I'm going to try that right now.

So far I'm 0-2, but this guy was pretty good.

2/8/2008 4:42:30 PM

since I've never played this game....and from what I gather (which isn't a lot) it's like scabble right?

but question: why is the 2 max letters a good strategy?

2/8/2008 4:47:05 PM

To fuck with the other person, so no one can use openings you create

2/8/2008 4:49:14 PM

It's exactly like scrabble.

Because it does a few things:

1. Infuriates the opponent, especially when I open the game with:

E L

T
E L M
N O E
  T

  B
E L M
N O E
   W

this strategy only works when you implement a timer into the game as well

though i havent played literati in forever, so do they even still allow you to play w/ a timer?

if they still do, then you should rarely lose with this strategy
