Using all your letters at once in Scrabble. With a 'q.' On a double word score.

What was the word?

Feanor of the Peredhil · 12-20-2009, 07:47 PM

Torques.

Nice. The best I''ve been able to accomplish was Zombies...for 54 pts.

Best I have done was making up a word. I think it was quzia. No one realized I had not spelled quiz until later in the game at which point it was too late for me to change my word. I hate scramble, in fact I hate almost every board game. Well I don't hate chess and I only kind of hate monopoly but still.

Thick squishy plush wool socks. Dogs that get visibly embarrassed when you manage to ninja your way into the house without them noticing. Having a job you like with coworkers that like you. Remembering why you were in love with someone, even if you don't love them any more. Sweet potatoes. Cheesy broccoli. Generous people.

Good days.

At a birthday party earlier today, I played about five rounds of RL Mafia. I narrated the first game. It was an epic fail, because I accidentally used the last Mafia's name in the Night Kill narration.

It was also funny, because I am never evil! Twelve games (that I can remember) and I've never been evil. I'm sure it means something.
