How does one play as a guest?

Ah sorry, I need to make that more clear. Currently you need to sign up to create a new game or a room with multiple games. Guest play is only for joining an existing game.

Great, thanks! Seemed like a fun idea. The goal / scoring seemed a big vague to me.

An option to click on a letter piece and then click on a tile to transfer it to that tile would be cool. Drag and drop works, but felt like a hassle at times.

This is the first week the server has felt solid enough to stand up to HN so I figured I'd risk it ;-)

Goal is to play all your tiles on the board. You then draw (assuming everything is valid). Everyone now gets a tile. Last person to draw wins (hence, "rush"-ing to draw).

I'll clarify the rules :-)
