| Jason Larsen I wasted too many rounds trying to find words that started with the next letter of the alphabet |
 | Andy SC @Jason - In this tournament you don't have to find words beginning with each letter of the alphabet. For example you could have two words beginning with A or B and so on. |
| Andy SC To add to the above point, they just have to be in alphabetical order. |
| Matthew Tassier Martin T. becomes the 4th different top scorer thanks to a perfectly alphabetical game here.

Tourney round: Alphabetical - Bot Challenge: Round D - Nice
Notes from the organizer: In round D we're done with the junior rounds and now have 9 letters to work with in a Nice letters attack. With letters selections biased towards the common letters there should be a lot of favourite apterous words available. The one further consideration though is that as awkward letters are banned (F,H,J,K,Q,V,W,X,Y and Z ) you will actually have less of the alphabet to exploit!
Alphabetical rules:
Your submitted words (WHETHER VALID OR NOT) should be in alphabetical order through each game. Therefore any word submitted that is alphabetically before any word submitted in an earlier round of the game (whether valid or not) will be ignored. Also, any word submitted twice during a game, whether valid or not, will be ignored. This effectively gives an option to cancel out a word from a previous round that you realise shouldn't have been submitted and maybe reinstate some lost points. Any queries, please ask!
Scoring:
Standard scoring for all words that pass the alphabetical rules. Your total score for this round will be added to the other rounds to find our overall winner.
