Immunity Challenge
We are going to be playing Boggle. For those of you who are not famililar with Boggle...
The objective of Boggle is to find assorted words in a small board with assorted tiles. Each tile contains 1 letter. By moving from tile to tile, you can form words. You can start a word from any tile on the board, and as long as the next tile in the word is adjacent to that tile, you can continue the word. You can move forwards, backwords, or diagonally. However, you cannot use the same tile twice in a word. You also cannot cross-over the edge of the board. (for example, moving from the top of the board to the bottom) And, obviously, you cannot use the same word twice in one game. Much like Scrabble, certain words are not allowed in Boggle. Basically any word that starts with a capital letter is not allowed. Examples would be proper names or countries. Abreviations are not allowed. Foreign words are not allowed. Most slang words are not allowed ("gonna", "gotta", "wanna"). Any word with an apostrophe is also not allowed. But beyond that, any word, even words with prefixes or suffixes, are allowed. So "Arriving", "Assisted", "Cats", and "Larger" are all valid. Words must be at least 3 letters long.

Here's how I'm going to do this. Everyone is going to get the same set of letters to play with. When you are ready, let me know and I will send it to you in a pm. Most Boggle games are 3 minutes. Therefore I will give you 5 minutes to pm me back with your words. The time stamp on your pm must be no more than 5 minutes from the time stamp on mine. If it's more than 5 minutes I will give you a score of 0. It is your responsibility to time yourselves. I would like to have this challenge done by tomorrow evening. Anyone who has not played by 7:00pm Central (GMT -6) tomorrow will be given a score of 0. I'll try to make myself available as much as possible but I'll be sleeping during the day and my availability at night depends on what my horsies do.
Scoring will go like this:
1 point for a 3 letter word
2 points for a 4 letter word
3 points for a 5 letter word
4 points for a 6 letter word
5 points for a 7 letter word
1 additional point for each word that you find that no one else does
The person with the highest score wins immunity.
