I have 4 submissions for this turn (and one for next turn). In addition to
the 4 submissions, several people said they were interested in seeing the
game, or at least watching it. Two people will be moderating a Klingon
Scrabble game live (vs. electronically) in the near future. Maybe the KLI
should talk to Selchow and Righter about the production of the game in
reality. The market at large would be rather small, but there may be enough
Trekies/trekers out there to make a small production run possible. In any
case, I think there is enough interest to continue the posting of the game
boards and such to the list.
Once again we have a clear winner in the point catagory. I thought the 74
point word back in turn 3 would probably be the highest scoreing word in the
game, but check out submission 2 below. I considered using the same
psuedo-random selection process used last turn, but decided that I really
should do a randon selection. In the process submission 4 was chosen. My
appoliges to janSIy whose 98 point word was not used this turn.
Submission 1:
Working off the "j" at H-6
from F-6 to J-6 for 25 points
bIjoch (v) - bI- (you, no obj) + joch (be harmful)
3l on the "b", 3l on the "ch"
Total points: 25
pa' Da'elchugh, ghuvaD bIjoch
If you enter the room, you'll be harmful to the baby.
Submission 2:
D5-D12. Using the 2nd "a" in manajlI', using all 7 letters, placing the
"o" on a double letter, and the " ' " on a double word:
Total points: 98
lItlhochba' --they are obviously contradicting you (all).
lI- --they/you(pl) + tlhoch --contradict (v) + -ba' --obviously (v6)
Although this can be a sentence all by itself, I also offer:
lItlhochba' po'wI'pu'
The experts obviously contradict you.
Submission 3:
>From D10 down, tlhablI' "your freedom".
Total points: 38
Submission 4:
H6-M11 : jotlhlI' - they are taking it down
Total points: 37
pa'DopDaq Soj jotlhlI' - They are taking the food down from the side of the room

A11 is actually a blank tile representing an "m".
Player 1 draws the following letters:
gh, D, r, e, '
Player 1: b, ch, gh, D, r, e, '
