    Turn Time Limit:
    If the player whose turn it is does not place a word within 48 hours, an automatic "pass" is generated, and the turn moves on to the next player. If you have committed yourself to a game of Wordpox, you should generally check your games and make your moves at least twice a day.
    After three automatic passes, the player leaves the game.

    Ending the Game:
    -Normal ending: A player runs out of tiles and there are no more tiles in the pot. All other players will get their scores subtracted by the total value of their respective remaining tiles. The player who placed the final word will get the total value of the other players remaining tiles added to the score for the last word.
    -Too many passes: If all players pass during the same round and the first player passes again the game ends. No additional points will be awarded.
    -Player resigns: If a player resigns, and the player is one of two remaining players, the other player will be designated the winner. No additional points will be awarded. NOTE: Always ask your opponent before you resign. Many players want to have a normal ending to the game in order to get accurate score statistics.

    Special Rules:
    -Exchanging is permitted even if there are fewer than seven tiles left in the bag.
    -Unlimited tries for a move in case there are phoney words being played.
    -Additional 50 points is added to score of playing seven tiles other called as bingo or bonus play. (Same as in Standard Scrabble)
