Any WEBoggle players?

so i see the word "hidden" in there, does that work, or does the order of the touching letters need to be sequential?

They must be sequential, I failed to mention that. So hidden doesn't work.

Apparently word games are beneath people here?

I've been playing. It atsonishes me how many words I miss each round. And here I thought I was man of many words.

Gotta keep practicing!

Yesss someone else who plays. I'm equally astonished by the words I miss. At first I thought most of the words I wasn't getting were Chaucer-esque/made-up words, words that are technically English (according to dictionary.com at least, for example the word 'les') but that no one (even the most self-proclaimed wordsmith) would ever use nowadays.

But then I started clicking on more of the three-letter and sometimes four-letter words. Most of those are words that are still valid nowadays but which I had never heard of let alone used. Words such as 'pax' or 'lode' or 'sen' or 'pes' or 'roe' (and what feels like infinitely many more), all equally valid even today that I had never heard of until I played weboggle. (Look them up, you might be surprised by their meanings.)

Now my goal is to know all of these valid words that I never heard of before this game, to know them so well that they roll off the top of my head as easily as any other word like 'get' or 'too' or 'fan' etc.
