When I first saw Scrabulous I figured the lawsuit or cease/desist order would be days away. When it didn't happen, I figured they'd worked out some financial deal, exactly the kind of deal they still can (and should!) work out.
In theory Hasbro should get a vast majority of the revenue (they can team up with an arbitrary development partner; Scrabulous has only one possible partner). In practice I wonder how closely this resembles those economic games where one person proposes a deal and if the other side rejects it nobody gets anything.
While we're here, I'll brag about my last five Scrabulous games, by final score:
381-275
433-365
424-384
420-389
329-319
