    I don't play Scrabble much, but I do have a love and interest in board games. So I have been reading about New Zealand Scrabble legend, Nigel Richards. He has won multiple World Championships and even won Scrabble tournaments in French and Spanish, though he doesn't speak the languages!

      What's your favourite tie-breaker? Mine is the whole tree-planting thing from Arboretum.

      Declaring the Winner Total players’ scored paths (using the included scorepad). The player with the most points wins! In the case of a tie, the tied player with the most species present in their arboretum wins. If there is still a tie, the tied players must each plant a tree. In five years’ time, the player whose tree has grown the tallest wins.

                come to me. Do you know of any that can be be played with 8 (or more) players? I mean “actual” boardgames, i.e. not counting card games (UNO, Set, Swish, Dobble …) or “party games” (Trivial, Werewolf, BANG!, Aye Dark Lord etc).

                The only one I can think of is Super Cluedo (Challenge), although arguably Sabouter could fit. Anything else I am missing? (Game need not be played “best” with 8, but should support at least as many.)
