Turn Time Limit:
If your opponent does not make a move within a certain amount of time (e.g. 5 days), they get a warning email telling them that the system will force a resignation in another 3 days if they don't make a move within that time frame.

Ending the Game:
-The game ends when either player uses their last tile and there are no tiles remaining
-Both players pass consecutively
-One player resigns
-For non-resigned game, the value of each player\'s tiles (if any) are subtracted from their scores. The player with the highest score wins.

Special Rules:
-Exchanging is permitted even if there are fewer than seven tiles left in the bag.
-WARNING: Two consecutive invalid plays cause a player to lose turn.
-Additional 50 points is added to score of playing seven tiles other called as bingo or bonus play.
