Last week's Scrabble

[supercheesegirl]

I've been so swamped at work lately, I haven't had time to post Thursday's Scrabble scores (although I had time to actually play Scrabble, of course). Thursday's game: Liam, Kristina, Christine, Kari, and me.

My words:
20 points - JAR
20 points - TUX (I pulled the J and X both in my first pick--I don't think there are any words with both an X and a J, do you?)
22 points - DEWY
17 points - RAJA/ADO/AL
17 points - HIVE/ID
13 points - BO/GO
21 points - GIBE
-1 to Liam, who went out first
129, final score

I was pretty pleased with my performance this game. Other than that one 13-point word, my words were pretty steady. Nothing else fascinating to report about this game. Christine keeps asking questions about where I blog my scores, so I may send her the link (hi Christine!).

Final scores: Liam 117, Kristina 107 (she was continually surprised at how well she was scoring), Christine 75, Kari 128. Kari was totally leading the whole game--she got some much more spectacular words than I did--and I only beat her by one point. Liam went out before she could take another turn, or else she would have won for sure. But no, this week the Scrabble crown is back at my desk. Yeah.
