That is the question I ask myself every time I play this game with my husband. He has never been a good speller and yet he wins the game every time. One of these days I will figure out how he does it.

I really enjoy playing Scrabble,...

Cons: Any new words you learn are likely to be short and obscure

One player always scores like the Tortoise and the other like the Hare. Who do you think will win the most games over time?

First let me say that at the risk of offending Epinions purists, I'm going to forego describing the rules of Scrabble....

Cons: May give someone a heart attack

Scrabble. Until last week, the most fun I'd had playing it was when my Sweet Dear Grandmother used the "S-word" to use up some letters. I suppose she could have arranged those same letters to spell "THIS" or "HITS", but...

Before we had the internet three years ago my husband and I would either sit around playing Yahtzee, or Scrabble. I love both games but this one is my favorite out of the two. Not only does it make you think but it is the one game out of so...

Pros: Great teacher
Cons: So fun that the board needs to be larger

I love this game, but it causes arguments. Being the female half of babycarrots of course I am smarter. My spouse tends to make up words to win. Isn't it amazing how the male id(ego) will refuse to let him loose. Don't get me wrong the arguments are...
