What's Scrambler?

Well, it's not all *that* complicated. I play in AOL chat rooms. You can find an AOL scrambler chat room by searching member chat rooms for the scrambler rooms, or go to the private chat room scrambler. Of course there's always those fonkin' scrollers and people who go "SEND ME A SCRAMBLER AND I'LL LEAVE {S IM" and other such variations. That so fucking annoys me. <C> (which means ::.contorts face, wrinkles nose, an expression of annoyance.::)

Anyway, heh, the object of the game is to, er, descramble words (duh). The host-- anyone who decides to be it-- has a program that scrambles up a word or phrase or sentence or whatever, and displays it with or without a clue. The first person to type the word correctly and press enter wins and gets points. Unless of course, it's like Gordy's Scrambler or AOL4PROP or something like that... then sometimes the 2nd, or 3rd, or maybe LAST person to type it wins. Oh well.

Here's an example:

the host: nbe lofds iefv
the host: clue: band
player 1: ben folds fiev
player 2: ben folds five
player 1: urk!
the host: player 2 wins!
player 1: wtg (way to go)
player 2: thanks (etiquette)

Well, hopefully you didn't need *all* of that to understand. (if you did... maybe you should, um, consider ::.coughs.:: slow scrambler) So...enjoy! =)

Here are three of the rooms you can play scrambler in, though there are plenty of others... oh yeah, and you have to be using America Online.
Arts and Entertainment - scrambler
Friends - scrambler
