Way to link to the article, *****.

Can someone post by what Scrabble rules this game was played? Under the official Scrabble rules I didn't think that names, abreviations and foreign words were allowed.

Front page? Kill me now, please.

Uh... anyone notice that this article was from like two years ago?

So what were the record points?

Can you use words twice? They used "no" twice. I know little about Scrabble rules.

Quixotry alone accounted for 28% of the entire game

Quixotry = 365 points. There are 365 days in a year. Its a sign!!!

back to article link for the fail :/

its mind blowing really....

"javascript:history.back(-2);"

not good.

I like clocks...

They missed a triple word score!

Weird...for some reason I feel dirty after looking at that.

In a related story, Hasbro sues Digg for posting this.

I didn't think you could use the same word twice (NO). Vrow is not in the dictionary either...

Funny there's a scrabble article on digg. I had not played Scrabble in 10 years and we decided to play just the other day. My cousin busted out SUICIDAL the other day for a double-triple. Only 167 points though. It's obviously no Flatfish...

I'm relatively sure that "ZAS" is not a word. It does not appear in any dictionaries that I've looked at, nor does it appear in the 3 letter word list linked above. Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure that "ZA" isn't a valid word either.

ZAS does NOT appear in the official Scrabble dictionary. Sorry.

Digg timed out before I could find it, but here you go:

Wow, you have got to be kidding me

sorry kids, Oxyphenbutazone is the highest scoring Scrabble word at up to 1778 points

when you're playing scrabble with english snobs it looses it's appeal. i like my rules of the game better. the better your word score, the more your opposing team has to drink.

Many words you see in Scrabble, you won't recognize...for instance, "AA" is a word in the Scrabble dictionary.
In a related story, my wife once successfully spelled QUIZzES on a triple word score...that got her a lot of points.

if you spell out Chuck Norris in scrabble, you win for ever.

BATED.

I remember playing an old computer game of Scrabble about 10 years ago. I was winning until the computer came up with ASPHYXIATE across two triple word scores that was worth 272.

How was QUIXOTRY worth 630 though? I cannot see how they came up with that number.

I live less than a mile away from where this happend. My church is right across the street from the church this took place at. My family's ski club has their christmas party in the same room this took place in. I had no idea there was a scrabble master in my town. and... I don't care...

TA, AW are words ? WTF ?

You should check out the ridiculous Scrabulous boards on Facebook. They put this crap to shame!

This is form two years ago friend-o.

I was kinda expecting to see the whole board filled up. Submit the ARTICLE, not the image, idiot !!

buried for the article calling Scrabble a "sport".

wheres the word ' craziest ' i thought that gave like 300 points see for yourself

wow - theres more geek in that article that I care to think about. Motherboard chipset statistics seem cool in comparison.

i logged in just to bury this crap!

Once you start allowing seemingly absurd letter combinations, you lose what makes scrabble fun. There is a reason you don't use abbreviations and exotic language slang.

Will Qwijybo be allowed?

To all those claiming that all the words are not valid. Remember, if the other player does not challenge the word it stays on the board and the points count, real word or not.

Wow, if I knew it would be so easy to be famous I would have figured out the best fake game of scrabble ever and then 'took a photo' of the game.
