I'd been exchanging phone calls with one of my fellow Golden Seniors Softball Club members every a.m. after Joe had had time to solve the Daily Word Jumble. I began to also exchange daily emails with my son, daughter, their spouses and my Ex to have a daily 'competition'...well, the Ex wasn't up to the challenge..and my son and his wife have been way too busy (I guess) to play, but my daughter and her husband have kept up and more.
When you play this game online it has scoring features, sound effects, hints...and a timer...you solve each of 4 scrambled words and then a riddle using circled letters from the four words. You get multipliers for solving which decrease in 30 sec intervals until your just getting a regular or 1x amount.
A 'perfect' score is when you solve all the words and the riddle in less than 30 seconds. My daughter has done that 3x....I'd hit the 30 sec. mark but something about it cost me the perfecto...and then yesterday...our combined times (3 players) were only 2 seconds passed the 2min. mark. Mine was :25 seconds...and 55555, baby!
Joe has gone on to help solve the big puzzle, but I'll always remember that connection.
So...here's the website...my score today was: 15421 (multipliers)3:32 (time elapsed) 770 (points)
