What is permitted as a "word" is very flexible. Digits can  <br>
be used as long as they have at least one consonant.  <br>
and have a special meaning (such as 1066 AD). Abbreviations  <br>
are acceptable and punctuation and other  <br>
marks are understood (such as ROTC or EMC2 -  <br>
E - MC^2). Two or more words can be put together as long as  <br>
they have a special meaning together. In case of argument,  <br>

keep this straight I suggested putting two chips on the  <br>
last play of each player. This helped.  <br>
The first player had a distinct advantage. Claude  <br>
suggested that the first player to be compelled to play  <br>
along the edge, on just one state. We replayed the game  <br>
and it worked much better this way.  <br>
