Notes

Scrabble and Go

Scrabble is played a 13x13 board. Points are scored by placing words on the board. Additional points can be accessed by hitting a bonus square. I've always had a vague itch about whether or not it was possible to combine Scrabble with Go. After all, Reversi and Scrabble were successfully combined to generate Wordox.

The main problem I have with envisioning the marriage working, is that you have to be able to fight off the suicide steal of higher value territory. I have though, decided to give the idea a go to try out NiGui.
