10 years agoWWF offering
I had to bite the bullet on this one, not a bleeding heart, but if it helps keeps one wild animal from being poached I'm all for it. Hey, it's $2.00 for a worthy cause, just do it. You'll sleep bet...

World Wide Wrestling Federation was WWWF (note the extra W) until a change to drop a W in 1979. Does a rose smell less sweet if it is not called a rose? Anyway, WWF the charity has my support ... thanks for the heads up DestroyISIS.
Symantics, The WWF or WWWF was founded in 1952. Dropping a W is insignificant. Besides..... To award the charity sole rights to an acronym is saying that no two companies can have a 3 word name that the first letters of all 3 words can match any other company. It's ludicrous. You can't, or shouldn't be able to, patent an acronym. Just an opinion. Besides, the real WWF (World Wrestling Federation) was operating under that name for 3 decades before it became an issue. If it were an issue, it should have been filed in 1979 not 2012.
To qualify as an acronym, doesn't it have to become a word, like Scuba or Laser? WWW or WWWF doesn't seem to be a word in my Scrabble game...and who cares anyway about the origin or legality of it? I thought this forum was about playing the game?
Interestingly, no one mentioned the playability of adding these items to the game. After a quick check I learned that only 1 of the new items is a 3 point epic piece. And it's cost is $4, not $2.
Im curious if anyone has purchased any of these and if they are worth it

Hahaha, Apple products are to Androids what Macintosh is to PC. I've been a PC guy for well over 20 years, so it's a natural transition to love Android and hate Apple. 🙂
It's what I must do whether or not it's a superior product, which of course it's not. 🙂 LOL Although I wouldn't expect a PC guy to say any different. LOL
