Sypher Moderator Registered: Thu Sep 30 1999 Posts: 16542 Loc: East London England UK	Welcome Everyone to the On-Line game of Scramble here at Funtrivia.com Final Scores of Game 10 - Sypher..........189 Mamaja..........161 JabberWock......155 Pling...........141 Baglady.........131 Sagebrush.......129 Congrats to all who play.......Please notice the extra and amended rules. Higher scoring is now possible. My advice to everyone is to keep their own database of previous used words. The entries will be checked !! Rules 1. Take away any letter, add a New letter and rearrange the letters to make a new word. 2. If you use a word that has been used in any previous games, which doesn't start with the last letter of the previous entry...YOU'RE SCORE IS X1 3. If you use a word that hasn't been used in any of the previous games, which doesn't start with the last letter of the previous entry...OR...If you use a word that has been used in any of the previous games and starts with the last letter of the previous entry...YOU'RE SCORE IS X2 4. If it is a new word and starts with the last letter of the previous entry...YOU'RE SCORE IS X3 5. The New Word must exist in the Oxford English Dictionary. 6. All words MUST be English and be able to be used in a common sentance. 7. No Plurals 8. You can only score points if your entry is Valid. 9. Challenges can be made on any players entry within the Same Day. 10. Challengers will be awarded extra points if successful, but deducted points if failed. 11. A Duplicated entry in the same week will be Invalid. 12. Each letter is scored individualy. 13. Monday = 4 letters ; Tuesday = 5 letters ; Wednesday = 6 letters ; Thurday = 5 letters ; Friday = 4 letters. 14. Please state if the entry is a Noun, Verb or Adjective. ##### Here is a link to check your entries...#### http://www.logophilia.com/WordPlay/dictionary-search.html OR Use Onelook.com for validity checks.

Anonymous No longer registered	Well, this isn't very imaginative, but I believe that it is the first time this word has been used in Scramble, and I am starting with the last of the last, so here goes: HIKE, verb or noun, as in : "My husband asked me to serve him breakfast in bed, and I told him to take a hike!!!!"
