Proposal: It’s My Favorite Too!

Withdrawn. Failed by JonathanDark.

In the rule “Scoring”, replace “for each word in that Wordsmith’s Favorites that matched a word in the title of that Backronym, add 1 to that Wordsmith’s Points” with

for each word in that Wordsmith’s Favorites that matched a word in the title of that Backronym, add 2 to that Wordsmith’s Points

and in that same rule, insert the following step before the step “Post a comment to that Backronym containing all of the following”:

* For each word in that Backronym author’s Favorites that matched a word in the title of that Backronym, add 1 to that author’s Points and remove that word from that author’s Favorites.

Since everyone seemed to like the idea of Favorites, how about allowing you to gain a little bit of Points on your own Favorites, but more Points if you hold off and let someone else use a word in your Favorites?

against Gaining any points off your own Favorites would be too easy and obvious. The reward for rolling the right letter would be half the difference between the best and worst Backronyms.
