    JEBEL. I try loan words often, but I didn't seriously expect this one to work. (I grew up in the UAE, so am always happy when an Arabic loanword scores points.)

    I was happy to be the first to find CAPRICCIO in a 4x4 that had been played 50 times. Would have been the longest word if I hadn't also found CHIROPRACTIC (best and longest). Capriccio was my favourite find though.

    Nice fabrication job Kate! Recently I spotted -METRIC but didn't see any of the usual suspects so I started tacking on prefixes and came up with BIOTELEMETRIC for 24 pts. It's always satisfying when you throw something together and it's accepted.

    Lalatan would recognize this board as he holds the record -- found PALAEOANTHROPOLOGISTS (40) and even had enough time to type in the singular plus sing/plural versions of PALEOANTHROPOLOGISTS. Total score 152 points for 4 words. I'm sure that's a new record for me!

    Not the highest scoring (26 I think) but STOMACHFULNESS was a fun find just now. Too bad there wasn't another ES to tack on.

    I've mentioned this before but there is one board where you can find doob, doobs, doobie and doobies and they all count...........

    At one point last month I found and got credit for MOFO and MOFOS.

    I didn't actually find this one, but saw it as time expired: ABSEILERS. (It wouldn't have been the longest or highest scoring word on the board. But I've done a bit of rock climbing.)

    metagrabolizers
    metagrobolizers
    (humorous) Concealers, mystifiers, obfuscators.
