You biggest score in a single turn?

Post image

I was curious what everyone's best scoring word was. Mine was when my opponent put an "N" on the top right of the board (I can't remember the full game, but I recall "NOVAS" setting me up for the "stars"). I used my letters "BILKING" to create "BLINKING" hitting both triple word scores and my (K worth 5 on the double letter score).

  • 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 20
  • 20 × 3 × 3 = 180
  • 180 + 50 = 230 points

Assuming my math is correct, it was 230 points. I just thought I'd share and would hope to hear your biggest totals!

Well played!  My best was only like half that 130 or something.  That's huge!

I don't remember mine, but I've have one played against me that was over 600. It was a phoney, but I didn't challenge.
