silly ones like:
the b tile is black with white "ink" instead of brown with black ink?
the size of the point value of the tile is much too large compared with the size of the letter?
the star is white instead of black?
the lines dividing the squares are blue instead of white?

of the errors you were more likely hinting at:
the squares above and below where the b is should be blue for double word score

You did great Bugaboo. Anyone else want to chime in? There are probably a few we did't think of.

why?
doesnt the first word just have to include the star but not necessarily start on it?
this tile (the b) could have been the first tile played and you "took the picture" while the player was reaching for the second tile to place on the star
haha

You must be right since no adjoining tiles are visible. That could be another error.

I never did answer Bugaboo. You asked how many error I had in mind? I didn't "intend" any. I just did a Scrabble board from memory. I knew there would be plenty of mistakes so I made it a puzzle too. You all did the rest.

why on earth did you answer me now? there were no new comments to spark your interest in this particular puzzle or its comments
were you just going through all of your puzzles or something and reading the comments? its just funny thats all; very random
haha
but thank you by the way

That is exactly what I was doing. It is fun to look at old puzzles and comments. I have over 400 puzzles to look through so it takes awhile.

Chiming in many years later: The first word played must cover the center square (the "star" square), but the word does not need to start on that square, or end on the center square.
