That... that's it. That's my comment. I can't believe there was never an article on bingoing. -- [[User:Kicking222|Kicking222]] 01:26, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

As the article says, another term for this is "bonus", but has anyone ever heard it called "a scrabble"? (I have never called it that but I have heard other people say they think they have heard it, haha) [[User:Adam Bishop|Adam Bishop]] 01:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Can we get a definition of OXYPHENBUTAZONE? And possibly a reference to it being the highest-scoring (not that I doubt it, but...)? Rigadoun 16:54, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How unlikely is it that 8 letters are placed in the correct positions? Just a little! violet/riga (t) 10:05, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As outlined, these are sowpods records. I'm happy for people to add TWL records in fact it's a great idea. I don't have a copy of the modern version of TWL so I don't know what the records are. But for heaven's sake let's not mix the two. I should be able to find a reference to OXYPHENBUTAZONE being the highest scoring word quite easily. I actually gave the score of the of the word on it's own, not the score of the word and sub-words but that's a great idea too.

The lowest possible score for a bingo is 56 since any 7 letter bingo must connect to another word. Mglovesfun 12:48, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
