[Rsgames-beta] Scrabble Thoughts

[Michael Forzano]

Hi Caroline, 

You can press Q to leave the game you are in. If you have a chance and can try a new game using the updated windows client I posted this morning, that would be great. Bruce had mentioned that he downgraded to the public release, which could explain some of the issues you ran into.

He made another word, but it wouldn’t let him score. I left the game, and now when I attempt to get back in, it’s not letting me. It’s like the game is stuck somehow, and won’t allow me to go back in. I can still access the other games just fine.
