So there was this big online drama. There was a game called Scrabulous that everyone loved on Facebook. The owners of Scrabble were bitches and made them remove it and put their own crappy version in its place. The users of Facebook rebelled by totally breaking the impostor. Then the makers of Scrabulous retooled it and released the new application under the name Wordscraper. So knowing all the drama, I had to try it.
You can play against friends, but the best is blitz mode. Where in four minutes you have to get a higher score than everyone else by making as many words as you can with the same tiles. Then you have a minute between games to chat with everyone, then the whole process starts again.
I am warning you, this is the most addictive game ever. It’s more addictive than Tetris because you have to think more so you don’t get bored. I had to tear myself away just to post this. I think I played for something like two hours last night. Don’t start if you don’t want to get addicted.
Right now it’s a little slow if a lot of people are on, but they’re working on it.

so why is this limited to Facebook. Could it survive out in the open source world?
