Should "Vaped" work as a type in?

Vape and Vaped are not valid Scrabble words. See the caveat in the description for a searchable list of valid words.

You're using an outdated Scrabble dictionary from 2006. The current dictionary (NWL2020) allows VAPE and VAPED.

We are using the latest accessible. Unfortunately, the most recent word lists are not publicly accessible easily. I was unaware that Vaped is now a valid word, so I will remove "Paved" from this quiz.

Thanks.

Took three goes to get them all, and I got stuck on the most obvious words each time... Nicely frustrating :)

Agreed. Those aren't 5-letter words. They're 4-letter words pluralized.

Why the discrimination against plurals? They're still words.

This is quite a tough one for a non native speaker ... I know all of these words but couldn't keep my brain from thinking things in German.

The only one I didn't get was SNUEE, because once I thought of the apparently wrong answer, I couldn't UNSEE it. Surely that's a valid 5-letter word?

Apparently not according to the Scrabble word list we used, however since it is a commonly known word I'll remove ENSUE from the possible options.

UNSEE, like VAPED, was one of those words added to the Scrabble dictionary between 2006 and 2020.

You forgot to mention this is a random quiz an the words change everytime (Unless it is somewhere and I missed it, but reread title and description 3 times.. but that is not always a guarantee haha)

It is very minor, but technically it is covered by the first caveat:

Using any valid Scrabble word...

This logically implies words will be different each time. But yes, it could be clearer!

Very enjoyable, not too difficult but still a challenge. I kept getting 18 or 19, extra tough when it is not your first language, because you are used to different lettergroups. (But I think it might still be tough for native speakers since English has all sorts of different "wordtypes" I suspect anagrams in many other languages might be easier. Don't think so about Finnish though :D) finally at my 12th attempt I got the full score. But fun enough to do again in a couple of months, it is a good mental workout, or try to convince my family to take it.

While the font in these comments is fine, in the quiz, the /l/ and the /i/ are almost indistinguishable to my eye, sadly. Still a great quiz.
