Found word OTD: ILOPRY

I think I knew ROPILY but not the other. Found when auto correct changed 'private' typed badly into this word...

These seem like they'd be useful to know

Missed bingo OTD: BOOSTT?

Darn it. 

Missed Bingo OTD: EEINOPPR

Didn't know it. 

low prob bingo OTD: ALOTWW?

Points if you knew this one. 

EEIILRT?

Wouldn't have guessed it, but these seven letters make no word, and only make one eight with the blank.  

Sneaky Second quiz: AEHNSST

Don't forget the front hook to HASTENS too. Know the anagram?

FOULERS*

I feel dumb for missing the correct anagram. 

AAGILMMR: missed bingo OTD

Somehow I'd never heard this word, even though I work for the post office...

ACEINU? plus ID... Sure

Guess I need to brush up on my vowel dump bingos

I had forgotten AEIOOP? contains one. I actually passed, remembering one of the three 8's which one can make (provided they play an E)

Missed bingo: ABFFLOU

A case of not even taking the time to think there was a word in there, even a common one... And it also could've been played to an -ED on the board!

ABCIIOR: Missed bingo OTD

Thanks, Facebook scrabble teacher...

Dream play: DEEOPRUZ

Never heard of this one. 

Fill in the blank quiz

AEEILQU contains three possible words, two of which are rather low probability know them?

Ironically, I just missed ADEHINP

And no, not HEADPIN

Found WOTD: EEHIPPTY

MINTABLE* is not a word.

But BAILMENT is. 

Found word OTD: CINNOSTY

Caught this one on an optometric supply delivery. 

EEEJNPSY: thanks again, FB scrabble teacher

Scramble with friends WOTD: AGILMPS

MAGILPS

Alt spelling of MEGILPS (anagram of GLIMPSE).... It's a substance with which pigments are mixed in painting. 

MEGILPH is another form. 

EILNOR?: bingo strategy quiz

So there are 8 possibilities here but only one that puts L in the fourth position (which, imagine, you need in order to hit the double-double). Can you find it? In how long? 

Things I learned at club this week

1. GLOT* isn't a word. Suspected but didn't challenge off. 

2. CARE has two front four-letter extension possibilities. I guessed the MEDI- might be one (though I didn't play it) Know the other?

3. Correctly challenged off TERP*

4. Missed GRINNERS

?????ROLLED

Two ways to extend this- this was on the board I played last night, in case you're wondering. The two possibilities are from the letters

EIMNS or AEMST

Can you figure them out?

Find the winning play

You have EIORST?, the only space on the board requires the ending two letters front hooking to YO. What is the one playable word? Oh, and your clock is running down. And a couple of your kids happen to show up and come in to say hi to you, haha.

Missed bingo OTD: AEEGHORS

Didn't know this one, missed it at club this week.

This week's club game

Not perfect, but I actually remembered BAUXITES! Which was exciting.

ADEGHILT: Sneaky Second OTD

Know the other anagram besides ALIGHTED?

Alt spelling OTD

Didn't know AACDMMOR and AACDMNOR were both acceptable.

Extension WOTD

CHAR(CUTERIE) would be a nice play. Know the only anagram of CEEIRTE?

Scramble With Friends... WOTD: AILPQSU

Didn't know this Q word!

ACEGHLRU: Found WOTD

Here ya go! I think I knew this one, but wanted to post it nonetheless.

Still around.. sort of

I've actually been studying words a little bit with my Zyzzyva iPhone app... I may try and do some occasional posts on here via the blogger app. Not sure if I'll do any podcasts, but I've dug up a few and am trying to at least repost them on the iTunes store.
