Captcha: Game Night Playtest

Before leaving work, I forgot to print out the Playtest Feedback Sheet that was provided on these forums. I REALLY didn't want to play. I wanted to record it and take pictures.

The feedback was pretty solid. I asked what they didn't like about the game and how they would change it.
• I need a better way to keep the timer standing up during the chaos.
• Get rid of the timer and make it simultaneous, single-flips, then flip back over.
• Get a timer that can be stopped and started again.
• Shouldn't have to check people's finished words.
• Stricter rules to prevent cheating.
• Mark wild tile with an asterisk or some other symbol.
• Shuffling the tiles is a bit too hectic with the time limit. It causes tiles to be flipped.

A round table with a slick surface is a must.
Everyone really enjoyed messing up the tiles while everyone else was hunting for tiles.
I like having people check other people's work. It can be used to punish someone in the lead.
I'm not sure if adding 1 more of every letter would either help people find what they need or allow a 5th person to play.
I want to try adding a 5th player and leaving the tile amount the same.
