Things should be better now!

I am seeing some of these issues as well. Also seeing the clock do some weird things. I am going to reset the host in a game or two and hopefully things will get back in sync. The …

Sorry to hear that. I'm not actually using the emails in any way and don't have plans to. The reason it asks for your email is that I'm using Firebase Simple Login which requests t…

Thanks for the comment! I considered giving each team 10 seconds per turn but settled on 5 seconds since I didn't want the games to last too long. I wanted to make it such that peo…

It was ultimately my idea to pit these two teams together in this format but I initially got the humans vs. humans suggestion from a coworker. I initially had it as a single human …

Thanks for the feedback! If your issue is that the word list is getting cut off, try scrolling in it. I'm planning on adding a "blurred edge" to the right side of the word list to …

I'm planning on adding click and drag in a future release. The best input method is to just type the words though! You'd only realize you can do that if you read the help (which I …

Great, thanks for playing and I'm glad you like it!

Welp there goes that theory. If you don't mind me asking, what browser do you happen to be using?

The game board layout can get a bit messed up on smaller screens. Try maximizing the window and refreshing. I'm working on making the website as responsive as the actual Windows 8 …
