A glorious, glorious game created out of boredom and a scrabble board. It plays just like regular scrabble, only more fun and with some rule changes.
Changes: - Correct spelling does not matter. - Phrases are acceptable as long as they can be used in an example. - Tiles with letters that resemble numbers or other letters can be rotated to represent them (such as an upside-down 'W' for 'M' or 'L' for '7'). - Names of well-known "urban" characters or locations are acceptable (such as 'Fiddy' or 'Apollo'). - Plays can be made in all directions (except diagonal). - One play outside of the board boundaries is allowed per person, per game. - Phrases are not required to flow in one direction, but individual words contained in the phrase must remain linear. - In the event of a questionable play, the majority of the other players must either instantly laugh out loud or vote to allow the play to pass. - Teams are allowed, but no more than four teams. Each team constitutes one vote in a questionable play decision. Laugh-passes only require one person from each team. - Players may trade pieces with other players, but only when it is not their turn and without the use of verbal communication. - Players may have more than 7 letter tiles as long as they are not caught. Each time they are caught, the number of tiles they can retain is subtracted by one. - A player can earn double word score on all plays if they consume a 40 during play. This works in addition to board bonuses. - Spelling the word 'butterguts' in any fashion consitutes an automatic win. - Making legit words is legal -- it's just lame.
Get your friends together and try it out. Post your experiences and such. The rules may still need tweaking, so suggestions are welcome. I've probably forgotten a lot of them as well. You're more than likely going to come up with some outrageous stuff.
Examples from my past games: exter - as in, "I need an exter pair of pants." beestuq - as in Young Jibbs' catch phrase, "B-stuck" trikter - as in, "I had sex with a prostitute and then trikter by not paying" peedona - as in, "Things got hot an heavy with the wife last night, and then I peedona"; later evolved into 'peedonajew' goatse - I don't know how this one passed, but it did naayugetrdixbru - as in, "Go and get that girl's two penises" "Naa, yu getr dix, bru" And my favorite: igetdawuginarep - as in, "I get da wugina rep" or "My vagina has renown"
You'd think that, but it's a lot harder than it sounds, depending on what vowels and consonants you have. Phrases that are too far-fetched usually get the majority thumbs down anyways, so people are required to be more creative for the big phrase scores.
And there are only two y's in the game, so "yo bro"s would be limited to being played twice. And there are thousands of other ways to use it, that being one of the lamest.
I'm 99% sure you were trying to make a joke, but it wasn't funny, so I responded in kind.
Usually as long as it makes sense in whatever phrase, it flies, but majority can say that it sucks and veto it.
The game is designed to make people laugh, so if you try to lay down non-legit words and phrases that aren't creative or funny, then you're probably going to lose.
Not that it really matters in the end. It's just meant to be fun.
