[LO2VE WEEK] ORM-MOC Word Scramble

[lewys-gp]

Unfortunately, @RafaC isn't around today to host the Word Scramble! So, I will be attempting to step into his shoes, and will hopefully live up to high-quality hosting. 

What is fortunate though, is that he prepared this earlier in the week, so I'll only have to update answers 😅! Here's what he wrote:

Have I heard someone say Hugh Grant?

As part of our Community LO2VE WEEK, I have the pleasure to bring you the Romantic Comedy Movies Word Scramble! The movies listed below are not all rom-coms mind you, but romantic-themed movies in general, or movies that revolve around romantic love (not necessary comedy). Some of them are actually good, believe me.

@lewys-gp 

What about the one I found 😂 ??

[lewys-gp]

Correct, @Mi-Amigo! Last but not least.

Thank you for joining in. Sorry you weren't able to join in from the start. We'll play another one soon.

Trivia: Producer Spike Lee believed the female lead should have believable basketball skills. Gina Prince-Bythewood said in an interview "I saw over 700 people for the part: actors, ballplayers, people who had never acted before in their life. It finally came down to Sanaa [Lathan] and Niesha Butler [a star player at Georgia Tech and 1999 Atlantic Coast Conference rookie of the year]. I put Sanaa with a basketball coach for two months and Niesha with an acting coach."

Thank you to everyone who joined in 🤗.

[lewys-gp]

Sorry, @Mi-Amigo. Didn't see your answer until I commented my eyes reply! Guess they were really deceiving me 😂.

[BobM]

Good game @lewys-gp thank you and well done all 👍

[lewys-gp]

No problem, @BobM. Thanks to @RafaC for setting it up - shame he couldn't have made it today, as he is truly the king of word scramble creating and hosting!

[Mi-Amigo]

I feel a bit of a cheat coming in and grabbing the last word.

I love Word Scramble games - the chance I get to take part in a word game.

Pity there was no mention in calendar for LOVE WEEK during the week that there was going to be this one today or I would have arranged to be available. Ah well. It looked like fun and well done, everyone who took part.

Look forward to the next one.

[lewys-gp]

Yes, apologies, @Mi-Amigo. I think Rafa prepared it as a backup in case no one filled that gap in the LOVE WEEK calendar. We'll definitely do another one soon, I'm sure 🙏.

[RafaC]

@lewys-gp thank you for your kind compliments
I love that you've added a little trivia section to each correct answer, that was really nice!

I'm glad everyone enjoyed the game! Well done all!

[Cleoriff]

Just to back up what @Mi-Amigo said @RafaC and @lewys-gp about notification re the game. Normally we have a PM from either of you and it didn't happen this time. For some reason I didn't get my mention. By the time I realised it was on, it had been running for 80 minutes!!

I quickly answered one and then sent a PM to @Mi-Amigo as I know he loves Word Unscramble as much as me. I answered two more before I had to leave, so I was a bit sad to miss most of it. 😰

[lewys-gp]

Hey, @Cleoriff! Yes, sorry about that. Rafa had to take time off unexpectedly, so I stepped in to host. It must have just slipped my mind to send a PM in advance. Sorry about that.

We'll definitely host another one soon, though 😊.
