CAPTCHA Is a valid Scrabble US word for 16 pts.
undefined. In 2000, Luis von Ahn, Manuel Blum, and Nicholas J. Hopper, affiliates of Carnegie Mellon University, and IBM’s John Langford coined this term, which stands for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart.” The test, administered by a computer, is different from the original Turing test, which is typically administered by a human. It is a kind of challenge-response test whose purpose is to ascertain whether a particular user is a human. The test is frequently used to identify human users and block computerized applications when signing up for some forms of Internet accounts. An example of this use is to block spammers from automatically setting up email accounts with free, public email services. The test involves the recognition of a distorted image of letters, often with the inclusion of some obscure sequence of numbers or letters.

The perfect Scrabble word for you to play depends on your goals for the game, but we’ve got some hints to help you choose:
- Think about your next move. If you can, pick a word that leaves you with a great vowel or high-scoring letter to use next turn (provided your opponent doesn’t play on it, of course).
- Use your high-scoring letters when you can. Choose a Scrabble word that makes use of those high points.
- Try to place high-scoring letters on squares that multiply their score when at all possible. Some of your Scrabble word options will be better for this than others.
