qis also works.
xi, jo, and gi are also two letter favorites of mine. (I just crossed a xi and gi and earned myself 22 points.)
I have to admit, I play more like Clark than Lois. I'm more interested in the challenge of spelling long words than winning. (although, it is very satisfying to break 100 points by hitting two double word spaces within one word.) It's very frustrating to have a good long word and not having a place to use it. (I'm still hoping to use all tiles at once, but it hasn't happened yet.) My most recent long word was "capered".
It was a few days ago, so I can't remember how many points it was, though I don't think it earned me as many points as "eighty" which hit a triple word space.
I must admit it is annoying to find out that slang words aren't accepted, but words I've never heard of are.
