They shouldn't change scrabble, they should just come out with a new game called NiggleTM. NiggleTM can have its own NiggleTM dictionary filled with low-IQ ebonics.

Has potential.

Actually curious to know if "sheeeit" would be spelled with three Es or four, or whether the 'N' tile would be a whole word on its own.

All spellings are correct in NiggleTM , even the ones not defined today.

How in the hell does one change a spelling game? Ohhhh, no winners, no losers. Everyone gets a fucking collaborative trophy.

collaborative trophy.

No, it's a participation trophy not a 'collaborative' trophy. It's okay, with the new rules we'll give you your participation trophy anyway.

That awkward moment when your sarcasm is a so advanced, that others think you're stupid.

Precision of speech equates to precision of thought. The use of the phrase "collaborative trophy" was intentional, as it was referencing a quote embedded in the body of the piece. A portmanteau phrase of the adjective, collaborative, supplanting the unctuous, ubiquitous and understood adjective, participation, to modify the noun, trophy.

Brett Smitheram, current Scrabble world champion, said: ‘The game speaks to a trend in younger people who want to avoid competitive games and sense of losing, instead favouring teamwork and *collaboration* working towards a fun goal together.’
