GFF MegaScrabble Game 4
 

Game over, Juanzen wins!

Each day lasts 24 hours and begins at 3pm. I’ll keep this thread updated with the latest scores, and at 3pm every day (or close to it, depending on what happens at work) I’ll post everyone’s new tiles to bring their total back up to 14.

Remember:
-POST YOUR WORDS IN CAPITAL LETTERS
-Post your moves/scores in the thread
-Letter/word multipliers only work for the first word(s) played on them (lots of folks make this mistake).
-I go through and change the blanks on the board to italic letters in different font.
-This should go without saying, but it is illegal to use a website or other tool that will generate the best possible combinations based one what tiles you have. It's perfectly fine to peruse a dictionary, but beyond that you're on your own.

I’ll be checking scores/letters for accuracy. If anyone makes a word for which they don’t have the letters, or any other illegal move, they forfeit that turn, and I’ll take the letters off the board if no one has played off them yet.

Detailed score chart

ok seems I will start things off with

OOGAMETE= if I am correct the first play counts as a 2x too so this is 40 points
DAKOIT = 22 points

thought it through, there is an A left in my tiles from doing this, so it's just 62 points.

Tiles left A.

I've added

MEDALLIONS = 18
COSEY = 20

TOTAL = 38

Letters remaining: O

And so the nightmare begins anew. Just subscribing for now; I'll do my words a little later tonight.

I'm adding:

AURORAE = 14
GUITARIS[T] = 22

Used all my tiles too, first bingo~ But only a total of 86 points.

I'll play...

ZAP: 33
AD: 3
EQUIP: 16

Total: 52

A good start.

Alright, I've laid down VEDETTE (76) and THEELIN (24) for a nice, even score of 100. Hell if I know what either of those mean, though!

Stupid internet died again. I'll tally up everything and make my move in the morning.

I played ISOZYMES for 22 points and DONATING for 20, for a total of 42. Add my bonus for using all my letters and I have a grand total of 92.

Alright.

ELIXIR(29)

[S]AGUARO(9) on THEELIN to form THEELIN[S](10)

Grand total of 48. Here's hoping I calculated that all up right.

Scores have been updated; looks like I'm the only one left to go.

Sousuke: You didn't have a bingo, because you still have an I left.

Smelnick: On the board, you placed SAGUARO on DONATING, not THEELIN. I was going to move it to where you stated it should go, but then I realized you didn't have an R to make the word anyway. Therefore, you forfeit the turn.

EDIT: I made VAUNTER (33 points) and WRUNG (18 points). I'll update the leaderboard and post the new letters this afternoon.

Did I put in a wrong letter somewhere, then? I used 14 letters between my two words...

You're right, you did use 14 letters. I'll check when I get home tonight, because I have the letters you drew written down there. All I checked were how many Is you used, compared to how many you had, and deleted the letters you used. Maybe I typed in one too many letters for you yesterday.

Ah crap. I forgot to delete the R from my list of words after making Elixir. Sorry bout that. Oh well, I'll do better next turn.

Letters are updated. I gave Sousuke 13 letters, leaving the I, and I'll sort out whether he had a bingo when I get home.

nutty, was there something wrong with my score? I listed 62 but I have 70, you never mentioned a mistake about that, bit confused.

here goes

BURIALS= 8 points
PARADIGMS= 30 points
VEDETTES= 12 points (this one formed with the s in paradigms)

total should be 50 points flat, and this time I double check and I should have a bingo, I will leave that to you, since still I have a doubt about my current score.

PROLIX: 30
FAINT: 16

TODAY: 46

TOTAL: 98

Not a great move.

When I tallied your score, I got 70. As in previous games, I'm not going mention minor mistakes in scoring, because it happens too frequently, both too high and too low. If I remember right, your score for OOGAMETE was higher than you said, because you didn't do both double word scores.

Alright no mistakes this time. I've triple checked.

GUMBO(13)
EMARGI[N]ATE(26)
ES(2)
AY(5)

Total = 46

I was wrong about Sousuke's bingo; I must have typed one too many Is yesterday. I've credited his bingo in the standings. It's up to you, Sousuke; if you want to trade in that I you have, you can with no penalty, otherwise, everything is square.

I haven't checked any moves today yet. My cat is getting angry because I haven't paid him any attention since I walked in the door.

I've added

HOMIER = 14
HEX = 26

Today's total = 40

Letters remaining: H, [], Y, Q, I, M

Played AGENCIES for 60 points. I'll use my second turn later.

I laid down MAHARAJA, using my boost blank to get through as an A for 66 points. Rockgamer (I think) popped in to provide me with the A I'd been needing, but sadly wasted the other triple word score. I'm not sure yet whether or not I disapprove of this action.

Haha, I saw that word magically appearing after I started putting in my word. If I would have started posting it a minute later I would have been :rockstopped: for sure.

My moves for the day are VULGATES (48) and KEEN (26).
