This week's puzzle contest involves making the highest scoring word that you can (up to 15 letters).
You may place the word anywhere on the board, taking advantage of premium points.
If your word covers more than one premium square (say 2 double word scores),
you may double your score, then double it again.
You may place your word horizontally or vertically. |

| Here is an example of how to score the word CONTRACTORS: |
| |
|
 |
c = 4
o = 1
n = 1
t = 1
r = 2 (1 point, on a double letter square)
a = 1
c = 8 (4 points, on a double letter square)
t = 1
o = 1
r = 1
s = 1
Total = 22
The word spans TWO double word squares,
so 22 x 2 x 2 = 88 points |

Type your word in the text box.
And type each letter on the board.
I will need your word in both places to check your score. |
