Adam Latchford Runs from 7th may to 11th may (ignore the note). 11th May is the last date to play this one!

Mike Lee Out of curiosity, is there a reason why Rex has been blanking on a few rounds. I didn’t think that was possible and he always maxed.

Tom Cappleman I think it doesn't know about the rule that you don't have to use all the letters if you can't. So it blanks those rounds because it can't find any valid word

Ben Bazzard How are people managing to type (and spell correctly) words of 45 letters in 30 secs?!
Very impressed!

Joshua McCune It's all in the muscle memory!

Adam Latchford You all have until the end of tomorrow to finish this. I'd highly recommend playing this variant - it's the biggest chance for mega points in the entire tournament :-)
and ben - it's a mixture of muscle memory for some players and some people definitely using the grey area of copy and paste. Impossible to rule on it , and people have mixed opinions on if it should be allowed. I kinda of think if you spell a word once correctly, you can copy and paste it later on. But some would say that's cheating anyway. Who knows, silly variant and the tourney isn't won in this round (but some people have smashed it into oblivion).

Having said all that, more than plausible that 0 players did use copy and paste and i'm just bullshitting for bullshitting sake

Ben Bazzard Thanks Adam. I looked at what I'd typed the next day and realised it might have looked like I was questioning some people's legitimacy. But in actual fact it was a genuine 'wow' from me, having had a few glasses of wine, that so many are so good at this variant.
