We are beta-testing Scrabble Club management software and soliciting testers. The following clubs are currently using our software. (John is the codirector of Club #3.) |

Clubs we help run |
NSA Club #3 (Toronto) | NSA Club #263 (Oshawa) | |
John likes to play Scrabble with nonstandard rules. In Clabbers, the order of letters in a word doesn't matter. In Duplicate, everyone plays solitaire using the same letters. In Polyglot, the language a word is acceptable in doesn't matter (much). In Speed, you have only three minutes to make all your plays, not 25. |
