Strip-Search To Spot The G of the Day: Scandal at the World Scrabble Championships in Warsaw: English contestant Ed Martin was accused by his opponent, Chollapat Itthi-Aree, of concealing the letter “G” on his person, and demanded officials conduct a strip-search to determine the truth.
The Thai scrabbler’s demands were rejected, and Martin went on to win the match.
If he had in fact cheated, however, it didn’t matter much in the long-run: Kiwi Nigel Richards took home the £12,700 prize, scoring 95 points with “omnified.” His acceptance speech consisted of a single word: “Nice.”
