I attended a small Speed Scrabble tournament. It was a contest between the English department and the English Language/Linguistics department (I am part of the latter). In an unusual turn of events, it turned out that there was only one English student and 9-10 ELang/Ling students. We all played against each other and kept individual scores. after a couple of rounds, we discovered that the one English student had earned a lot more points than anyone else in the room! Everyone was really impressed! We all congratulated the student at besting all of us at Scrabble. It looks like the English department has won the trophy this year.
No matter, because we all got to enjoy ice cream and good company anyway. :) I am grateful for my evening adventures with Scrabble today.
