I'm going to visit my parents and inlaws in Texas. My wife works retail and couldn't get off for the holidays until next week.

I'm hoping to regain some brain power during the break, my scores have been embarrassing lately

It was a pleasant surprise. I thought you were going to find 6 letters that made exactly 100 words..lol

Rascal, I wonder if it would be good to have a game once every week or once every two weeks in which there were a fair amount of words (50 or 60) and everyone has 10 mins before a time penalty kicks in, and there are no incentives to get it done in less than 10 mins.

Speed is out of the equation and it is just about who finds the most words (word value, actually) in the 10 mins available.. Incorrect penalties would still count.

If you are going to do something like that people would need a heads-up that it was coming and which day, as I am sure people don't read the PM instructions anymore due to the race to get their words typed... Or put 10 Minute game in bold in the PM...

Just a thought.

I actually tried to get a word with exactly 100, but didn't come up with one, so went with the ABCDEF to see the reaction.

I'm open to suggestions for mixing up the game to keep it fun. I like your idea. Other suggestions and comments are welcome.

But, if I go with this. I'll need to announce it since people apparently don't read the PM's. (I don't blame anyone though since it is timed.)

Spending 10 minutes finding words would make my ADD hurt, but whatever y'all want to do, I would attempt to play.

That was humbling...lol
oops sorry!

Love this game, but have just been way cramped for time lately. Hoping to get back to it soon. Many thanks rascal

I only seem to do well in the ones with few words so I'm thoroughly against that idea
Nah, don't mind really but 10 mins is too long imo. Happy holidays rascal
