So we played. I scored a respectable 253 points. Not my best showing, but OK. Anna plunked down four seven letter words to propel herself to a new personal record of 579 points. She had a single word that netted 185 points. Yikes! This woman knows how to strike fear into the heart of her opponents.


I wept. And she wonders why I never want to play this game with her? The sort of game that can make a grown man cry...

XIS??
Come on man...how bout some REAL words...
Here's the definition from the Scrabble Dictionary:
xi xis \ n pl. -S a Greek letter
Did you notice that she played this on a triple letter space and used it on two words. That makes the X itself worth 48 points, for a total play of 50 points using only 2 letters. Then, she pluralized it and used it for another 8 points, for a 24 point play. I'm telling you, this woman is crazy good at this game.
