Welcome to Litsy!

#TeamWhoYaGonnaCall Would you like to play a game? From now until October 22nd, see how many spooky, haunted, eerie, creepy words you can come up with. Take some time to let your mind wander to somber, dark, mysterious, ominous places and post your totals at the end of the game.

#Scarathlon 2023

I just realized I didn't post my total for the word game. I found 2,969 words for 29,690 points.

#TeamHendrix! Welcome to #Scarathlon2021! I hope you are ready to enjoy the spooky season with me and help earn some points for our team. Have fun with Game 1!
Here is a helpful doc I half stole from @Clwojick so that we can have all our team info in one place. Let me know if I should add anything or if you have any questions.

Not everything is crap! Because of current crap, the Minneapolis book festival, Wordplay, is going online. So now those of us who never planned to travel to Minnesota anyway can participate and all the authors can still promote their books! It puts a damper on getting autographs, but what a great solution.

Mild pick. Cute book about compound words with fun graphics. My 6-year old loved the puns and trying to figure them out from the illustrations.
