Australia and the UK use the SOWPODS wordlist. It is not polite to use anagram generators when playing in friendly (or unfriendly!) competition, except by agreement between the parties.

Choose difficulty from Easy, Medium, Hard and Evil. Jigsaw Sudoku is fun and appeals to all ages with drag-and-drop in colour. Visit options to choose difficulty from 4x4 easy grid up to 9x9 hard grid. The Chambers Online Sudoku is OK but not as many features as Web Sudoku. Mahjong Dragon offers Chinese or Japanese MahJong, or MahJong Connect (addictive!). Find out about Dragons, too :-)</p><span style="font-size:130%;"><a href="http://www.websudoku.com/" target="_blank">Web Sudoku</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.jigsawdoku.com/" target="_blank">JigSawDoku</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.chambersharrap.co.uk/chambers/puzzles/sudoku/puzzle.shtml" target="_blank">Chambers Online Sudoku</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mahjongdragon.com/index.php" target="_blank">MahJong Dragon</a></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2403247966001731988-6202690658429430158?l=bywaternet-scrabblers.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bywaternethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09750830006693246277noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403247966001731988.post-1780316056948106462010-02-18T09:10:00.001+11:002010-02-18T09:16:34.559+11:00<a style="" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 91px; height: 91px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__hcKkfKmneg/S3xpZabX5KI/AAAAAAAAAGM/-pJ1xMRtCRQ/s200/flash.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439338335268496546" border="0" /></a>Many online games require Flash Player to run.
