    “A game built on the basics of the NYT's Spelling Bee: identify high-scoring words using a limited set of letters, but in this one, you can only use each letter five times before it disappears, plus there are more opportunities for score multipliers. As of this writing, it sure seems like most of the people playing this game are extremely smart and unusually adept at the task, which is inflating the average score tremendously!! I don't so much hope to improve myself but to entice a broader intellectual swath of the polity to participate.”
