What a tournament! What an experience!

My gratitude goes first, to God and then to the following people without whom we could never have had a successful tournament.

And to all the players who registered for the tournament, I say a very big THANK YOU for taking a leap of faith in the MGI brand. Please know that, together, we have made an indelible mark and recorded a first (Biggest ever online tournament in terms of prizes and number) in the history of online Scrabble.

I also would like to thank my beautiful wife and kids for their understanding, having spent most of the last 4 weekends alone even though I was present in the house.

We have learnt quite a few things in the course of running this inaugural tournament and we will be drawing on the experience for further improvements in subsequent editions. As most people are aware, we pioneered a monitoring system at the latter stages of the tournament to address the issue of cheating in online Scrabble play. The deployment of video camera / screen sharing to monitor players was largely successful and we will consider adopting the monitoring system from the beginning in the next virtual series.

We also want to hear from the players who participated in the tournament through a feedback survey. Your opinion as a participant surely counts, and we will be sending out a survey via email in the next few days for suggestions on how we can improve. We are keeping an open door for constructive feedback and we would like to hear from Scrabble players all over the world on how we can improve our events and grow the MGI brand globally.

The MGI DREAM is to consistently run the biggest Scrabble events (virtual or face to face) in the world, professionalize Scrabble, grow and promote the game at grassroots level. We continue to put ourselves in good position to attract individual and corporate sponsors by creating quality and attractive events all year round. We are also using this opportunity to solicit support from Scrabble players by way of voluntary donations. If you would like to support our events, please reach out to us via email at info@mindgamesincorporated.com or contact me privately at lukeman.owolabi@gmail.com.

It is also noteworthy to mention that all the 20 prize winners at the MGI Virtual International Scrabble League Series have been fully paid. Both finalists will also receive their gift package from our stream sponsor – FRONTPAGE COUTURE within the week.

Following the successful hosting of the inaugural edition, the management team of MGI has decided to run the virtual series at least twice a year, alongside our other events. We sincerely hope that Scrabble players around the world will support the event going forward, especially with the deployment of our monitoring system to tackle the menace of cheating.

Once again, I would like to specially thank Will Anderson and Conrad Basset-Bouchard for their selfless contributions and extra-ordinary commitment in bringing the event live to viewers all over the world. Please subscribe to Will's Twitch Channel - www.twitch.tv/wanderer15 to appreciate his creativity and support his work.

Organisers of the maiden Mindgames Scrabble Premier League has announced a set of innovations to the 2020 edition due to the requests of interest from players all over the country.

The MSPL is the first ever league to be introduced into the country designed to match the ever increasing yearning for international standards in organising tournaments by players both home and abroad.

The 12-team league format comprising six players including a female each play are playing 55 games at the four different venues across the country.

Hence, in order to meet the yearnings, organisers have planned for a second tier which will be introduced next year to accommodate players whose ratings fall below the Nigeria Scrabble Federation 1300 points as at October 31 this year.

Head of Team MGI Lukeman Owolabi, revealed this development as the final Matchday of the inaugural edition gets to it's pinnacle in September.

Owolabi said,'' starting from next year, the MSPL will be expanded to a 2-division league to accommodate more scrabble players who have expressed interest to be part of this unprecedented initiative'' the former world No.9 then added that ''scrabble league teams can write to info@mgiscrabbleleague.com to indicate their interest before the closing date of September 20 this year.''

For even distribution, the NSF top ten-rated players will also be seeded only for the first division while each team will have five main players and one reserved.


As part of the add-ons, a transfer window policy will also be adopted in June.

The 2020 MSPL will run from February to September in four different venues across the country after which two teams will be promoted to the top division while the two lowest ranked teams relegated.
