2-Day Contest: Scrabble-With-A-Twist Challenge

[simplymike]

SteemIt doesn't have to be all work and no play. Take a break an join us in this Scrabble game.

CONTEST CLOSED

The new educational game for newbies I'm setting up is taking me more time than I thought it would, so I thought I'd post this scrabble game to keep you guys busy while I'm working on it.
(I know Steemit is all about being busy, so I thought I'd offer you something fun, so you can take a little break to load up the batteries again.)

The Game

Below, you'll find a set of Scrabble tiles. (I do hope you know how to play scrabble?)
Now the goal of the game is to use these tiles - ONLY these tiles - to form words.

As you can see in the example below, you can take 4 of the tiles to form the word 'list'. The numbers on the tiles represent the score, so 'list' will be a word that is worth 4 points.

But this is not a regular Scrabble game, in which you have to score the most points to win the game. I gave it a little twist.

I 've hidden two words in this Scrabble game that are related to SteemIt.

I wrote them down and submitted them to @davemccoy for proof.

---

MAIN PRIZE:

The first one that comments with those same two words wins the big prize: 5SBD and a resteem by @ebargains (this means you can resteem one of your posts to over 120k followers on their Steemit/Facebook/Twitter accounts! )

---

SECOND PRIZE:

The person with the highest score generated in only 1 word will win 50% of the SBD this post generates + a resteem by @vallurivikram.

So if you can't find any SteemIt related words, you should try your best to create a long word that is worth as many points as possible.

• This game ends in 2 days. Only comments that have been submitted before February 8th, 2018 at 4pm GMT (11am EST) will be eligible to win the prize.
  
  
• To win the big prize, you must be the first to comment with the exact same 2 words I have written down.
  
  
• The person with the highest letter score in only 1 word wins 50% of the generated SBD + gets a resteem by @vallurivikram.
  
  
• You can comment with new words as often as you like.
  
  
• Submitted words should be real English words
  
  
• You MUST count your own letter points and add your score for each word after that word in your comment.
  
  
• You can use every tile only once!!
  
  
• However not necessary to enter the contest, upvoting and resteeming is recommended to put some money in the prize pool.
  
  
• Winners will be announced on Thursday night (February 8th).
  
  
• Prizes will be sent after post payout.

Your Turn

Below, you can find the tiles/letters you can use. Be creative, try short words with high letter scores, try long words with lower letter scores and especially try to find those 2 words related to SteemIt I have hidden in there.

Upvotes and resteems would be very much appreciated in order to fill the prize pool.

UPDATE - CONTEST WINNER (09/02/2018)

Since nobody has found both words I had selected, nobody wins the big prize.
