Announcing the SUMMER PREVIEW and PREMIUM SWERVE virtual tournaments
Now that the epic BlitzChamps tourney is in our rear-view mirror, we are ready to switch it up a bit before launching another multi-day event.
So how about a couple of fun 1-day tournaments?
First, we will hold a "regular" Scrabble tournament, with the parameters being the same as they are in our weekly Tuesday club. Two weeks later, we'll have a CLABBERS tournament. I know this is very exciting for all of you CLABBERS enthusiasts out there!
You are all invited to join us for these events, to be held on the Woogles.io platform.
All the details are listed below, but for the most current information, be sure to check our tournament page.
