SAGEBRUSH QUESTIONS

To help those under 70 points of second place leader, these people will score double for these and it won't count against their daily limit. Although it won't count as your daily, you can answer only one of these bonus questions per day. This offer is good until they get within range or The Blowout / Catch-up Round (last 5 week days of the month/game).

All others may answer, but for 20 points and it will count as your daily.

Q.4 is 164. I think Sypher counted the middle square which is a double word score square although not labelled as such. It merely has a star on it and is pink.
