Words with Friends....Etiquette on re-match??
Does the winner or loser instigate a re-match? Or does it matter?
Here's my problem....I am either good, lucky or my friends aren't so smart. I mean no harm in that statement, but I have yet to find someone that can consistently beat me. In the six months I have been playing I have lost two or three times.
Recently I started playing a friend of a friend ("D"). My friend ("L") thought we would enjoy playing one another because we both normally beat "L" by 150-200 points. "D" and I have played five games of which I have won four. The last game ended yesterday (I won) and he did not request a re-match. Does that means he no longer wants to play? If he were a friend I would just ask, but it is awkward because I don't know him. I enjoy playing him and he's the first real challenge I have had. WWYD? Is there an unspoken rule??
Re: Words with Friends....Etiquette on re-match??
I just recently found out that if you have 8 games going you can't start another game. Someone can invite you, but you can't start one.
I usually just request a re-match, what's the worst they can say, no?
Oh, and have I played you? I'm good
angelaggie06 is my screenname
Ditto angelaggie.
I would just ask for a re match.
so my friend's husband a few months ago found out with WWF and was like let's play. he was super cocky and said he'd never lost a game yet. yea um i bet him by like 100+ points... he didn't request a rematch & i felt bad requesting one??
nesties though... its whatever
lol i noticed that one game. i was totally thinking it sucks to have nothing to play first round! i can usually at least play a 3 letter word! lol.
i honestly don't think it matters. we're all grown ups
except lame cocky boys i play who don't like to be beat by girls!
haha...I just thought I had missed the etiquette boat on WWF when he said that so I do it both ways now. I'm just OCD about making sure a game gets started- heaven forbid I not have a bazillion games going at once...haha

I can't rematch anyone b/c I have too many games going, but if anyone is playing a game with me and it ends, PLEASE rematch no matter who won.
I agree with that statement. Although, I admit I'm NOT that good, but she's consistently beating me by more than 100 points.
I think my down fall with the game is I go for maximum letter usage. If I can get in a double or triple then great. And I'm horrible at the two letter words that make 3 words at once. Plus that's kind of a pet peeve of mine because it general shuts the board down. Then I just get frustrated.
I also say it's totally up to you to rematch if you wanna. No realy etiquette involved.
I love to play, too -- my name is Editard if anyone is looking for a match!
Thanks everyone. I will re-match him and see what happens.
I must also note.....I haven't played any nesties. Maybe my winning is over.
The people that posted their user name I will send a request to play, and anyone that wants to play me please send me a PM and I will share my name. Not that it is a big secret, but when setting up my WWF account I used my yahoo email prefix. While it is now my x-last name (went back to maiden after divorce), there are only 20 people in the US with that last name and it takes away some of my anonymity.
