Come on in guys!
Here's how the challenge works:
Your goal is to find TEN WORDS in this letter bank:

There are a few rules. First, you may not use one letter more than once. This does not mean that if you use an A in your first word, you can't use an A in another word. It means that you can't use that same A twice. The only other requirement is that adjacent letters have to be touching--this means they could be vertical, horizontal, or diagonal from each other.
So, for example, let's look at this sample letter bank:

I have found two words here. Oxygen and Pallor. I cannot use the letters marked with yellow in "Oxygen" or "Pallor" again for another word. Basically, if you have a line crossing another line (or itself), that's against the rules.
Words will be scored via scrabble letter scores. Just type your word into this website to see how much it's worth:
http://www.anagrammer.com/scrabble-score-calculator/
So, for example, Oxygen would be 17 points.
Also, I will accept words that are in the US or the UK Scrabble dictionary. If you aren't sure, type your word into the search box on the top right of this website:
http://www.anagrammer.com/scrabble/ and it will say whether the word is valid (it has to say "Yes!" next to either the Scrabble US or Scrabble UK).
It's important to note that you are NOT trying to find the most words possible. You are only picking TEN words (no more, no less), but you want to try to MAXIMIZE the point total of those 10 words.
When submitting, please submit your list of words and scores, as well as a screenshot like the "Oxygen/pallor" one that shows how you connected each word on the grid, just to make it easier for me to make sure your word is actually in the grid. If you cannot screenshot, please include the grid position of the first letter of each word on your list of words (e.g. A10). Keep in mind that the letter bank is a completely randomized assortment of letters and there are no specific words that I have put in there for you to find.
YOU HAVE UNTIL 7 PM EST ON THURSDAY (TOMORROW) TO SUBMIT THIS IMMUNITY TO ME VIA MAIL.
