How to play Word Yacht - 7/30/2009 5:40:30 PM    runamok   Posts: 1 Joined: 7/30/2009 Status: offline I would like to play but can't get past my first word list. No instructions tell me what to do after I enter my words. My name blinks but I can't seem to find a way past. I know I'm missing a simple key button but enter, space bar, or anything else I push doesn't seem to make a difference to continue the game. any help would be appreciated < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 8/29/2009 2:22:52 PM > Post #: 1

To finish your turn, you will want to click on the highest number of points in the list. For example, if you see that you have 20 points on the 3 letter line, 40 points, on the 4 letter line, 50 points on the 5+ letters line, 15 points on the Straight line or 25 points on the Starter line, you will want to click on the 50 points on the 5+ letters line - because that's the highest number of points in the list. And, that's how many points you will be awarded for that turn. You will, however, want to make sure to check the Yacht line - because, as far as I can tell, the number of points awarded for a Yacht is 75. And, you will want to keep in mind that the points you click on will often show up later on scorecards at the end of later turns. And, those points will be listed in Bold. But, those points cannot be selected again. So, you will have to select a different high point setting that is not displayed in Bold. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 8/29/2009 2:22:58 PM > _____________________________ For More Help: Click on the FAQ link at the top of this page Then, click on the All FAQ's button on the next page To contact me by email, please send your message to pine_97@yahoo.com (in reply to runamok) Post #: 2
