Will's Play of the Week #1: It's Not U, It's I
🕑 Added 2025-08-23 20:26:42 +0000 UTCHello patrons, thank you for supporting my channel!
I've largely moved away from purely educational Scrabble content on my main YouTube channel, but I'd like to try a new format where I take the most interesting play from my weekly club sessions here in the Philly area and turn it into a little lesson of sorts. This one came out a little longer than I'd like, but future episodes should be shorter. It's from a club game I played in August 2025 against local expert Joe Petree. Enjoy & all feedback welcome.

This was awesome! Straight to the point, illuminating, and well explained. Thank you!

This is the NWL lexicon used in North America - I'll do my best to pick positions where the analysis won't be meaningfully different for CSW players.

Concur with Rebecca -- the content justifies the simplicity. This one's a great (first) episode.

Could you tell me what lexicon is this?
Will Anderson
Appreciate it very much Jim - hope to see you, Andrea & Evan out on the circuit sometime!
Rebecca
Thanks so much! Feel free to simplify the editing, the lessons are so valuable in themselves.

More Will content! You rock sir. So glad to support you on your incredible journey to spread the love of this great game. Andrea and I were 2 of the 1000 lucky ATHLEISURE viewers and literally jumped off the couch and yelled out when Nigel played the “E”. So fun I’ll never forget that moment. Now I’m here watching the first “play of the week”. When it comes to scrabble ambassadors, you are the G.O.A.T!!

hehe, (T)UNICA was my immediate choice, then I saw UNAU and started to wonder what I was missing. Nice play :)
