Why isn't LOL/WTF/(other acronym) in the dictionary?
This was a tough one for us. The easy answer is that many word games exclude the use of acronyms already, so it was a natural choice to extend that rule. That's not the whole truth though, we wanted to include common acronyms that have virtually become words in their own right, such as LOL, ROFL, WTF, etc.
The problem is deciding where to draw the line - some acronyms are in common use among one group of people and unheard of among another. We didn't have the hubris to declare the True Internet Acronyms and have to fight off the rampaging hordes of soccer moms that use ROFLMBO later, so we decided it would be better to stay away from them altogether. Of course, you can establish a custom dictionary to use with your friends - just make sure you all agree on the words beforehand.

We will send replacement tiles as long as the request is reasonable, send us a message via the contact page.
Are L33T Tiles edible?
No. Don't be fooled by their bite-size design, L33T Tiles are not candy. While their square shape may minimize blockage in your oval windpipe, it is not recommended that you test this theoretical feature. Please keep the tiles away from your children and small animals as well - the danger to their impressionable minds and throats is significant.
Are L33T Tiles a complete tile set or just an add-on to existing tile sets?
