    I posted this elsewhere in the thread. Apparently the N-word was only banned from tournament play four years ago. I shit you not. So I guess that’s what they’re mad about.

      Not that I like that word but the only rules we run by is literally if it’s in the dictionary “Websters” then it’s allowed. But it’s interesting that the tournament has banned it, but not surprising.

        There is an official Scrabble dictionary that tournaments go with. They can put in and take out whatever they want. They could have taken it out a long time ago.
