Interesting, I had wondered about a few of the words that showed up and 
which dictionary they came from - in particular, 'ee' and 'ny', neither of 
which appear in the official dictionary (at least not that I found).

I also was wondering what the play order was, but only got the first word 
(which was mostly easy since it had to include the center square).

Very cool image.
