How Many Words...

How about this ...

Copy and paste the list ... and add your word on to the end. That way the complete list is available in every post ...

+1 Keith...i hated the "table" way but it's how i was keeping track on my laptop so easy for me to screenshot. c/p per your suggestion is brilliant

nice to see everyone up to speed with the "rules" too.

Great idea guys & gals.

What I've done is to put it into some sort of alphabetical order.
Not perfect, but all the Bs together and all the Os etc...
That should make it easier to check if a word has been used.
Then when you come up with a word, put your word in the correct place.

FORTY (was the first!)
ADOPT - ALMOST - BOP - BELOW - BEST - CHIMPS - CHINTZ - DELTA - DRAB - DENY - EMPTY - EGO - ELM - EMU - ERST - EVAC - ETA - GAD - GLAD - GILT - HAM - HINZE - HIDE - HORDE - HORSE - KNOW - KNOT - KNOB - KEG - LOVE - LIKE - LAB - LEG - LOACH - LUCK - LOST - MOTH - MODEL - MORSEL - MORTAL - NAIL - NOPE - NOPAL - NORTH - NOVEL - OPEN - OUCH - OVEN - OWL - OVAL - ORACH - PUCE - PSYCHO - PACK - PSALM - QUACK - RACK - RADIO - STAR - SAD - STUDY - STUMP - STUDIO - SAILOR - STUDORS - SWAMP - TAILORS - TAMP - THIN - TWAIN - TUBER - TUBERS - TUMORS - TENOR - UART - WATERS - WHILST - YACHT - YELP - ZIP

Rik, Not quite correct ....

I like the idea that you show your word and put it in the list, but the last word was not "KNOT"... So "Knot" is still available.

That also means that your word "Tack" is still available too.

The "K" was used in KEG in the post before, then emcat posted GILT and I posted TENOR.

GAD wasn't in the list, the word was EGAD

The word TAMP should have read STAMP

Also, STUDORS isn't a word, the word was TUDORS.

I have made the relevant corrections:

The next word should begin with "R" as TENOR was the last word used correctly.
