Cool. These ones with less available points work much better with my ADD.

The last 2 rounds I purposely went with more words and less words to see how strategy may change.

Ok, hoping to climb to mid-pack on this one. Once I got stuck I rewrote the letters in 4 different orders and it gave me several more words....

Would it be better if I posted the number of words and points ITT for each round rather than it just being in the PM?

Thoughts???

don't think it's a huge difference either so I'll defer to the masses

I'll forget to look wherever it is. My only complaint is the blue font of the letters makes it hard to read them on slick background, but I can deal with it.

I kinda like it being in the PM. That way I don't really know what to prepare for.

Not really a big deal either way though.

I'd like to work the word "weest" into this post, but don't really know how.

I think this is a weest point you make here.

I think it is fine the way you do it. It is not like a person can prepare differently for a 25 word game than a 75 word game. Maybe stretch their typing fingers....lol

Two minor suggestions.

1.You might want to put a "due time" in your message using "server time."

2. I don't find the games with an "s" as fun as the rest.

a scramble like TRAEMS can become more of a typing race than a word find race...

Just a thought...

Not sure what others think on either...

Thx again for funning these lilrascal....

1. I'll be putting a "due time" of 9PM server time, but if I'm running late, I'll still accept submissions.

2. Esses (s's) will be included in some rounds. It's all part of the fun.

3. I'm open for suggestions. One thing I'm thinking of for a future round to try out is a bonus point for someone being the only one to post a particular word, but I have to add some more to my scoring spreadsheet to do that.

Thx. Taking time to re-write the scrambled letters in several different random orders made some words jump out... was worth the extra time for me.. Plus I got lucky as I thought I used all 5 mins...

Apparently not. I learn something new every day, especially in the weest hours of the morning.
