Play fluther scrabble with me?

Asked by _zen_ (7857points) June 25th, 2011

I hope I’ve worked this out right, please feel free to correct me or contribute to the idea.

There are seven tiles (letters) left for you by the previous jelly. Try to make the best scoring word you can. The only rules are: be nice, leave decent letters and at least two vowels and don’t go heavy on the Q’s X’s and Z’s. The other is try to do it without googling – then, if you wish, google it and add the best one the computer can come up with.

Score: All 7 letters: Amazo-Jelly; 6 letters; Scrabble-dabble-fish; 5 letters: Good golly, miss jelly; 4 letters; not-too-shabbyfish; 3 or less; you either got sucky letters, or your thinking cap was swallowed by a whale.

It’s all in fun – so be kind, rewind.

Smeary. And how do I leave 6 other letters?

_zen_'s avatar

You just write 7 random letters. But read the details about the suggested rules.

Seven letters – you are a an amazo-jelly.

bkcunningham's avatar

Hey, I got seven and fixed your thread. No, lurve for me @zen.

_zen_'s avatar

I lurved everyone – or do you mean a special comment?

@bkcunningham You are the perfecto-amazo-jelly, for getting seven letters and fixing the thread.

Two more seven letters and you win the Jeruba.

MilkyWay's avatar

@zen Go for it.

whitenoise's avatar

@zen
I was the first one to get seven letters with a very scientific like, interesting word (paid attention in biology class) and I didn’t get any extra attention. Now I feel left out. :-|

MilkyWay's avatar

@whitenoise and @bkcunningham You girls don’t understand. @zen Loves me ;)

_zen_'s avatar

@whitenoise You are hereby cordially invited to get the first-perfecto-fish, and jump 5000 lurve to go straight to the mansion. I’ll talk to Auggie to promote you.

@Coloma, It’s an easy word and if you don’t get it, you won’t receive one when you retire.

Coloma's avatar

Huh? I was joking about spelling ‘Phone’, when there was no ‘H’ , I don’t compute your comment. :-?
