Have you played a tournament in the arcade yet?

Is it a bad thing to go into a tournament and look at the score you're up against to move to the next level and think "I've never even come close to that score!"


Off to go practice Umbrella...

Question: Your score is not saved unless you beat the high score? Just played Broken Words and at the end it says my score will not be saved.
Although I am in the list of scores.

It did that to me too... also - luckily, I was also practicing. I did find out - dont try to win this game on a laptop.

BLAH

I switched to my home computer and a real mouse and improved BIG TIME... too bad I didnt discover this until after I went up against AbbysMom

I think it just means that you have a higher score listed then the game you just played. I will only record your highest score.

I get that everytime I play broken words too. Here's my theory... it will only record your score if you beat your won previous high score so that your name isn't all over the score board. So, unless you beat your own high score it won't be recorded.

I don't play at home unless I hook my external mouse up to my laptop. It's too hard to play any times games with a touch pad mouse.

I've done that plenty of times.

I wouldn't even attempt to play without a mouse.

I was totally robbed! Unfair! So, I was playing broken words tournament. Now I wasn't going to beat Karen's whopping 70,000+ score but still I was trying. So, in my last game in the second round I get what you see below. It's never done that befor... I want a rematch!
I had NO idea what to do with a whole blank row. The only word I could work out was notion

I got that once and matched up the three blank ones and it worked.

I like Bongo Balls too... but I can never get passed the one level - Poo!

I've signed up for an OBVERSITY touney. I love this game. But we've been waiting for two more players for days!

It's a fun game - kinda like 9 Dragons Hex, or the Umbrella game or even the Easter Egg Match... only you can choose your colors. Someone's gotta be brave enough to join us!

Come on - the water's warm!
