Wordsmithery
This post is specifically for my Mum.
So, you think you’re good at Scrabble, huh? Just because you’ve beaten me and, well, every other member of our family in every game you’ve ever played? Hah! Not good enough!: the board below contains the end of a tournament match during which 3 different world records were set.
- Highest individual score (830)
- Highest combined score (1320)
- Highest individual word score: ‘Quixotry’ going across 2 triple-word boxes (365)
(Aside from all that, the rest of the article is terrifying, chastising the players involved because they had ‘only’ learned all 101 two-letter words and 1015 three-letter words that are possible in the game. These people are lunatics)
