I just thought that was how you played! And then we were playing at uni and I played a terrible word and someone asked why I didn't just shove the 's' onto the end of another one. I duly explained that you couldn't do that! It's against the rules! Reader, it is not against the rules. And yes reader, I did make my mother explain, to my housemates, that she had indeed created this rule and allowed me to believe it was an actual rule for my entire life.
I tend to assume I'm going to lose a game of Scrabble from the get go? I do not have a brain which is made for finding the most point-efficient turn. I like words and I end up looking for the nicest word, and not the one that scores a lot. My stepfather, however, isn't so hot with the words but that man has a verrrrry mathematical brain.
