Yesterday I had submitted 2 comments on the blog https://agameaweek.com/?Blog=8979 with link to 2 pictures I had uploaded in socoder.


Hmm.. Well, I suppose that's probably my over-reactive Spam control in action, which perma-deletes anything that looks even slightly dodgy. (eg, URLs and things like that) I imagine that all the _'s and brackets in the text also probably added to the trigger-count, which would've ended up blocking your comment from even getting to the comment bin.
Sincere apologies for that.
I've dumbed it down a little, and added a notification if your comment is auto-binned.

Sorry!!

FARE_(FARES), VAULT and MAYO_ (MAYOR) are not scored.



FAUL_(FAULT) and JOK_R(JOKER) are not scored


I wanted to bring to your attention that many words are not getting scored in Word Tubes game.


This is probably the reason why so many people tend to hate the "Stacks/Word Tube" type of games.
You have to work backwards, from the end of the word, to the beginning, so that the words read from top to bottom, not bottom to top!

It's really quite hard to think ahead, especially when there's only a few letters in the "rack" but I usually find that starting "/ending!" with a D-E or R-E or L-L combination usually leads to a few decent results.

Incidentally, you'll probably have noticed an alarming amount of more-helpful letters popping up. The "Tile Bag" for this game has been purposely recalculated to give a higher percentage of useful letters, than a normal Scrabble/Strings style game.
Hopefully that helps!!
