You can use a letter more than once if you "loop" and come back to it--for instance, you can't have a word with two Os in sequence, because the two Os in the grid aren't adjacent or at a diagonal.

Well, not a "legal" diagonal, anyway.

Honest to God, I just thought you put in some extra spaces in your post. I didn't even think to look for the invisible text. Sorry.

Jen, you can never use the same tile twice. This rules out Tablet. You can use two different tiles with the same letter, though.

Please sort out your lists by word length so I can easily calculate your scores. Thank you.
