Solve
this logic problem!
Scrambled
Scrabbling
In
Womblegrad, the Scrabble Society is holding its championship
playoffs. The entire society comprises four keen souls (3 men
and one woman) with the surnames (not necessarily in this order)
Widor, Bach, Bossi, and Spicer. They are (also not necessarily
in this order) president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer,
and are playing their hardest - with the help of the dictionary.
In their first game, which they played sitting at a square
table, they each used one unusual or high-scoring word.
Who
used which word and how were they placed in the end?
Email your answer to me at
by November 15th, and please remember to include your name and postal
address so that we can notify you if you win the draw!

- The
player who played JINX sat between the president and
the person who made the second-highest score.
- The
player with the lowest score took his turn before last
year's champion.
- Widor
sat on Lee's left, opposite the top-scoring player.
- Rob
and Frankie, sitting opposite each other, were neither
president or vice-president.
- The
player who used all seven letters with WAITERS made a
higher score than the player sitting opposite him.
- The
treasurer, sitting opposite Bach, had never heard of
the word QUETZAL until it was played by the man on her right.
- Glen,
Bossi, and the person who got the top score, waited 10 minutes
for the other person to play KYLIX.
- Frankie
and the treasurer questioned Glen's move.
