Take Two
Back from a holiday break: Scrabble! This weekend it's the Johnson City roster. I again analyzed the frequency of letters. Here's the allotment:
Plus two blanks. Here are the rules, but you can use as many letters as you like, so there's no bonus for using 7 "tiles". Again, the prize is a game from 2005 (or if you have a Mac, something else undecided).
The Iron_Throne has 203 points, Laura has 60 points, Bruce has 45 points.
Letters no longer available: D, F, K, M, O, P, S, U, W, X, Z, blanks
Also, Matthew Leach is doing Winter Warm-Up updates on his blog. I never know how to feel about the WWU. It's for Cardinals Care and there's interesting speakers every year. But there's something about it that's a little creepy and a lot cheesy.
A= | 10 | B= | 1 | C= | 3 | D= | 4 | E= | 9 | F= | 1 | G= | 2 | H= | 4 | I= | 4 | J= | 2 | K= | 1 | L= | 8 | M= | 4 |
