Another week of quiet, satisfying word-nerdery in UniWords. Here’s what the boards looked like.

The numbers

  • 2,351 players β€” and 23 new faces joined this week, our best week this summer πŸ‘‹
  • 106 games played in the last seven days
  • 19 live tournaments running right now

Plays of the week

The board giveth to those who see the ordinary: STOVE landed for a mighty 81 points β€” proof once again that the best words are usually hiding in plain sight, not in the dictionary’s dusty corners.

The rest of the week’s top shelf: JADES (52), FAWN (42), JOY (39) β€” thirty-nine points on a three-letter word is board-geometry poetry β€” plus CRUCES (36), ZIP (36), DUKE (34), TYRANT (34) and the gloriously sticky GLUEY (33).

Think you’d have seen STOVE?
