    I stole a best word on this board, a casualty of improved scoring method for longer words, which I think we all appreciate. An opportunity for turnover...

        Hey Lalatan--just fyi, I sent you a pm this morning...............the messaging on this site is really archaic! It's hard to know when you receive a message so I thought I'd give you a heads up here so you can check it out whenever.......

        Best,

        Russ

            Thanks for your diligence, Stephen. Another one for you: STEREOPHOTOGRAMMETER, STEREOPHOTOGRAMS, PHOTOGRAMMETER, PHOTOGRAMS were all invalid on a board I just played.

                PHOTOGRAMS is definitely already in the database. None of the other terms are in any of the dictionary sources we're using, nor are any direct variants, so we'll likely not be adding these for now. Just to keep things clear - I am only adding terms when there is already a direct variant of it in play. i.e. a plural when the singular is in play, or a past tense when the present tense is in play, etc.

                CORRUPTIBLENESSES is now added, thank you!

                      Both are allowed in the CSW19 dictionary.

                      On a board just played EXCOMMUNICATING was accepted but not EXCOMMUNICANT.
                      EXCOMMUINICANT is not in CSW19, nor are any direct variants used in our dictionary, so it will not be added.

                        QUIETED, DISQUIETED, DISQUIETEDNESS(ES) accepted but not QUIETEDNESS(ES)

                        Also I'm excited to have bested a word submitted by lalatan. A rare occurrence, whereas mine I'm sure are eaten for lunch.

                          QUIETEDNESS (and plural) are not words in CSW19, nor any other dictionaries as far as I can see, so they will not be added.

                            Good find BoggleOtaku. STRATIGRAPH- was a new word for me (like so many recently). Typically I'd look it up after the game to see what else could be paired with it but I haven't been doing that for the last month. (Too many new words to find.) And, yes, I have enjoyed a number of best/longest word lunches you provided this month. In the past I didn't see your username on those records too often. I'm impressed with some of the long words you come up with while playing mainly for high score and most words (something I could never effectively do when I tried in my early years here). That seems to be a trend with speed players since the Great Wordtwist Stat Reset last month.
