Re: [pbmserv] Valid Words Not Accepted by Scrabble?

[Vivek Mittal <pbmserver@vivekmittal.org>]

I believe we use the same dictionary used by the international scrabble 
federation (or whatever its called).  That dictionary contains all words 
accepted in competition and as such we can't add our own words to it.  
We could, but it won't be right.
