It seems like a lot of people try to find other hatrackers to play some of these games with, so I figured a thread to let people when know when you are looking for other players might be useful.

Scrabble! Meet whoever wants in the Consonant Creek lobby.




Oh, and an important note for all newcomers to games.com: When you are registering and it claims that registration has failed, it lies. Just go back and log in -- you'll be fine. [Smile]

Do you use IE, Audeo?
I have a lot of trouble playing scrabble on IE.

I'm using Netscape now.

So what monopoly area do hatrackers usually hang out in? That appears to be my game of choice this week.

I'm gonna check out consonant creek now, but I can't stay more than 45 minutes or so. So if we start a game and it isn't over yet, I'll need it to be unrated.

No one play monopoly against a person named ericky. Simply because I didn't want to trade, he's being a baby and not taking his turn until 5-10 minutes pass. Unfortunately I can't seem to select the text in the chat, so I can't quote, but he's unbelievable.

For something like this, I really wish the Hatrack clock weren't whacked. Like it's 1:36 pm where I am. now. I'll check park place. Huh, well it's usually 2 hours and 15 minutes or something else that wouldn't be explained by time zone difference.

Go to www.games.com

Choose traditional games (left)

Choose Scrabble

Register, IGNORING the error message -- just go back and log in

Choose the Consonant Creek lobby
