Hasbro—-I practically grew up with you. I learned business skills from Monopoly® and construction skills from using Tonka® toys. I had Play-Doh®, Risk® and a Spirograph®. Spent hours playing with my G.I. Joe.
But you’ve gone too far with your attack on Scrabulous. Yes, it’s a direct copy of your wonderful board game. We know that. You know that. But times have changed, and sometimes you have to give a little to get a little. By allowing Scrabulous to go unfettered, you’ll sell more Scrabble® games. You’ll build brand goodwill. People will love Hasbro and all it stands for—which is quite a bit, considering the long history of the company (which, although public, is still run by the original Hassenfeld family).
Take a look at the most recent Wired magazine. The cover article is about how “Free” is the future of business.

Now that Scrabulous has been shut down – we’re changing tactics.
Hasbro wants to make money off their online version? Well they can’t if no one adds it as an application.
Join the fight to get Hasbro to work TOGETHER with the applications creators to keep Scrabulous alive!

This is exactly the concept you need to embrace: give away the blades, sell the razors. Give away Scrabulous, sell the board game. This could be a new beginning for Scrabble, which you must admit, is a mature brand, having been around since WWII.
All we’re asking is that you allow Scrabulous to continue free of charge to the users. Work out a deal so everyone, including the millions of fans of Hasbro and Scrabble® is happy.
