Scrabble, Turn 6 report



Sorry about the delay, but I kept expecting more people to submit something.
I am just about convinced that this should be taken off line and conducted
by private E-mail.  Many of you all have written in and said please continue
posting to the list, but I don't get submissions.  This game is to be a
learning process.  Both for the game and for the players.  Please take as much
time to prepare a submission for turn 7, player 3, as you would to translate
a short (say 5 sentences) post in tlhIngan Hol.  If you can't come up with a
word in that time, but you really tried, go ahead and send me a note asking
for a redraw of the letters or at least expressing the fact you really tried.
If I don't get at least 6 people responding within a week (by the tuesday after
Easter), then I will send a short note to the list explaining that the game is
now offline, and all the submittors will be sent the results.  Also, I think
Lawrence will keep a copy of the board out on the WWW page for the KLI at:

/lawrence/MLGame.html

There were 3 submissions this turn.  Random selection chose number 2.

Submission 1:
My submission for Player 2 is from F4 down to F8: vIngeH  "I send it".
Total points : 34

Submission 2:
C11-15, using the 'n' in manajlI', with the 'ng' on a double word:

nIngev (they sell you);  nI- (they/you(sing)), ngev (to sell).

Total points: 34

An alien has been captured and taken to the slave market.  But he has not 
been told where he is.  He speaks a little Klingon so he asks:
     muHoH'a'   (Are they going to kill me?)
To which the 'avwI' responds:
     ghobe'.  nIngev.   (No.  They are going to sell you.)

Submission 3:
J1-J6 : mangvetlh - that solider
Total Points : 27
