Chris K. played FuTHORkS for 90 points last week. There are seven
possible words using those 8 tiles, where the u and k are blanks.
ORGANA + S is not a plural.
CHILLER has a front hook, and so does WARMER.
HEATER has two front hooks.
There are 6 front hooks for ORAL.
There are 2 back hooks for TRIPOD.
HAVEREL is not the way the town is spelled, but it is acceptable.
JARGON plus a blank yields three sevens.
Chris K. offers this puzzle: MAXI+SPIN anagrams to an uncommon word
