02:00 UTC
That is 2:00 AM UTC where you are.
Nine o'clock Eastern, every day: one board goes live and the whole room plays it at the same moment. Ten rounds, sixty seconds each. Lock one word a round, and when the buzzer goes, the rarest word takes it.
No invites, no organising. OUTLIER hosts it and the clock starts it. Doors open fifteen minutes early, so come in, say hello, and size up the people you're about to play.

You won't know the board until you sit down
The type changes every game and the board is always new. Any of these could be waiting.
- ScarceThe alphabet didn't all show up today. Make do with what's left.
- DecoyTrust nothing. The easy words are bait.
- VanishingThe board is vanishing. One letter goes every round, and only 15 are left by the end.
- Open BoardNo special rule. A straight board, rare words hiding in plain sight.
- SequoiaSome letters just keep appearing. Lean into them.
- ThicketTangled and stubborn. The grid doesn't give anything away easily.
- Deep WaterCalm on the surface. The best finds are the ones that don't float up.
- CopseA few consonants show up twice. Watch for the pairs.
Some nights add a rule
Up to twice a week the board comes with one extra rule for all ten rounds. The doors post and the reminder email say which.
- Gold RushFirst to lock a word keeps it. Later locks of the same word score zero.
It has its own leaderboard
Outlier Live Daily keeps its own rating, apart from your daily rank, your streak and casual Live games. A place on it means one thing: you showed up at nine and beat the people who showed up with you.
See the board →The table is better full
A quiet table is a nice game. A full one is an event. The difference is whether you send this to someone.
