If one player usually pronounces TIRED as one syllable and the other pronounces it as two, and they both offer TIREDEST, does one get the points and the other not?

Gevin's first ever recap, and it's the first show to give nine points for a nine.

Interestingly, there were three 10's available, and they actually almost got all of them too!!!
Rachel did get us FOREWARNED, whereas the other two were UNDERWIRED (where Susie said UNDERWIRE) and UNREWARDED (compared to Josie's REWARDED).........

I was hoping for UNFORWARDED^ (like junk mail) but it's not there - & not for Scrabble either

How did they actually manage to fit 13 letters on the board? Did they put the extra 4 on the bottom row?
everything has meaning - existence has meaning - being alive has meaning - have dreams - use power

The extra 4 were on a hinge, which Joe revealed, so it was 13 in a row.
