OBJECT: To list, within 3 minutes, as many words of the highest point value

as you can find among the random assortment of letters in the cube tray.

PREPARATION:

PLAYING: When the timer starts, player one searches the assortment of letters

for words of three letters or more. When you find a word, write in the field.

(using the Graffiti area.

**Words are formed from adjoining letters. Letters must join in the proper

sequence to spell a word. They may join horizontally, vertically, or diagonally,

to the left, right, or up-and-down. No letter cube, however, may be used more

than once within a single word.

TYPES OF WORDS ALLOWED: Any word is acceptable as long as it can be found

in the wordlist.

SCORING AND WINNING: When the timer runs out, pass the pilot to your partner

and have them press Start.

After both players have completed their turn, the pilot scores based on the

words:

SCORING

NO. OF LETTERS: 3 4 5 6 7 8 or more

POINTS: 1 1 2 3 5 11

The winner is: 1) the player whose words have earned the most points; or 2)

the first to reach 50 points, 100 points, or whatever score is considered

by all to be a reasonable target.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

* The same word found by a player in different areas of the grid may not

be counted for multiple credit.

* The "Qu" cube counts as two letters.

* The letter "M" is underlined.

* The letter "Z" has a line under it and should not be seen as the word

"IN."

* Full credit is awarded for both the singular and plural forms of a noun-

provided the player has listed them as separate words.

* Common words tend to be found by more than one player. Therefore, if

your words are unique and unusual, they are more likely to earn you

points.
