Today's Scrabble players: Angela, Jean, Kristina, Kari, me.
My words:
18 points - UNEVEN
27 points - SWEAR
22 points - QI
10 points - JOE
15 points - GONE
-2 to Kari, who went out first
90 points total.
By about halfway through, I was looking at EEEQOON in my hand, which makes no words at all. It was Not Nice. Meanwhile, Kari played the amazingly fabulous word ENJOYING, using the J on a double word while using up all her letters at once and snagging 88 points in one move. It was kind of over for the rest of us after that. It was a great move. Kari finished with 173, Jean with 105, and Angela and Kristina with somewhat lower scores that they did not publicly share.
