    I just played a board where I spotted APPROBATIVENESSES early on. After retyping it a few times, the singular and PROBATIVENESSES, all were rejected. Usually when I have that problem, I get the correct spelling on the 2nd or 3rd pass. So please check when you have time. Thanks!

        Congrats on 1st place & no offense meant. Going for average points per word is a much different game, another kind of discipline, and the cost of mistakes is high. I am satisfied with the outcome.

        This month I've humbly stepped back into the shadows. But who can say while it's still March, whether I get a wild hair.

          Thanks. For sure it's different. I came to realize if I'm not sure of a word's point value, don't play it. Playing under 2 ID's can be fraught with danger too. (I came up with a method to prevent it.) Once I self-sabotaged most of a month's work by playing a few low scoring words in 1 game under the wrong ID. (That was when I played for points as lalatan.)
          I'm not competing either this month. Too many new words to find on new boards.

            I just did something I've never done! I finally beat an Estive high score on a board! Granted it was by only six points, but I'll take it!

              Somehow I'm still showing up on that board, must be a mistake!
              Interesting: DECHRISTIANISATION and CHRISTIANISE accepted, CHRISTIANISATION and DECHRISTIANISE not.
              (Don't know regarding Z alternate spelling.)

                I've only beaten ONE of your scores too. Very frustrating!

                  Stephen, I'm not sure you're monitoring this thread anymore. In case you are, I just played a board where INAFFECTATIONS wasn't accepted. I think I tried the singular (not sure though) and it was rejected.

                    CHRISTIANISATION has been added. (DECHRISTIANISE was definitely already in there - perhaps there weren't enough E's to make it work).

                    INAFFECTATION/S ... neither is a word in CSW19, and we don't use any longer versions of those terms, so these will not be added.

                      Ok, thanks. Before I asked I googled it and it was in a few dictionaries.

                        Just found another: REMUSCULARIZATIONS was accepted but MUSCULARIZATIONS wasn't.
                        Btw, you have brought a new freshness to the game by adding so many new words. Much appreciated.

                          Added now (and the "S-for-Z" version, too). And thanks!

                            I haven't enjoyed playing this much for a long time! Really am very happy with the new boards, thank you!

                              ELECTROGALVANIZER accepted, but not ELECTROGALVANIZE.

                              Edit: HYPEROXYGENIZATION accepted, but not OXYGENIZATION, REOXYGENIZATION, or DEOXYGENIZATION.
