[Post]Friday — slovarem with Lettered.Me

... Good idea, like magicians, never late. However, nor is he early. It comes when it is necessary. That is, during meals.
So to us, abrowser dachi304 and jimlet, and came up with the idea of games with letters, words, tongues, and brains. Came flavored burgers, America 2350х and the kittens in a good mood.
If history intrigues you, if you want to remember everything ever read the word and spend time playing with friends and other good people — please a cat.
So...
In the beginning was the Word.
And the word was...

the

C A K E

Bake Cake Fake.
Three words.
The company is sitting at the table, pondered, eating the burgers.

On the jukebox (the Jukebox that is to say-e), descended as if from the films of yesteryear, there were only 10 letters. So the Game began. First offline tournament. The food was all laid aside, the pancakes still cooked, and the notebook slowly but surely filled with new and new words.
Every few dozens moments there was a pause and the phrase in the spirit of "Twenty-six is the limit to 10 letters." Then the Game continued on.
Run past that here and there the waiter often and interested glances and navrnyaka wanted to join. But service! Now, however, he will always be able to play... But more on that later. Matching all of that you can guess for dinner, and blushing from the ideas (and hot sauce) together, the company moved to design, code, create!

so, what have we created?

Lettered.Me aka I Read
Service to the Game.
But you probably want to hear the rules?
Oh, not so much.
There are 10 random letters. At this stage in English only. Of these, at least two vowels. So interesting.
From these letters to form words. Some words more, some less, you never know.
Who makes the most words is the winner.
Who will be less running for the dictionary.
You can play alone, in company.
For the company we provided several modes:
the

the
• long-Suffering hotseat (in development) [oldpage]
the
• Private game (invite code)
the
• all Custom championship

Their duration is limited to 60 minutes, after which a new round begins with new letters. In a single game to train your memory forever. By the way, we have a save, so do forever*.

*Under the condition that you sverkhplastichnost energy entity.

At the moment there is support only for English language in the process — the preparation of an adequate vocabulary for Russian. In theory — support for major European languages.

But this article would not have been zaposchena habré, if it was not our suffering effort on the code.

How it was created?

what what what
Made our boys?

Everything is based on the Java EE platform, but not simple — and the seventh version. For UI we used AngularJS so popular now. The project revolves on opensorce GlassFish 4. As a transport medium is finally standardized for JavaEE web sockets, which, unfortunately, can create some difficulties for users who are still sitting under obsolete versions of proxy servers and browsers. Update more often!
But authorization on loan to us through the Persona of the Corporation that gave us the browser-the Fox. Its functions it performs good, but probably we will change.

what's next?

Then — play!

And we are going to code. We've still so much for you cooked!
