The 3-point gap between the two totals comes from the tile values themselves: Scrabble and Words With Friends price the same letters differently.
Dictionaries record two senses for extermination. Scrabble and Words With Friends score tiles and not meanings, so every sense below is worth the same 22 points on a Scrabble board:
extermination is the only thirteen-letter word the same letters produce. No arrangement of the same tiles scores higher in Scrabble, so playing extermination unchanged also takes the maximum points these letters offer.
The highest-scoring play from these letters is extermination, worth 22 points in Scrabble, and no other word from extermination earns more points in Scrabble. Words With Friends prices the same letters differently, so the top of the list changes on a Words With Friends board. Both scores count tile values only and exclude premium squares.
The letters in extermination produce 720 valid words in the Scrabble and Words With Friends dictionaries. The word count by length is: 1 thirteen-letter word, 1 eleven-letter word, 4 ten-letter words, 20 nine-letter words, 37 eight-letter words, 83 seven-letter words, 128 six-letter words, 158 five-letter words, 160 four-letter words, 95 three-letter words and 33 two-letter words.
The anagram solver inside UnscrambleX compares extermination against the dictionaries used by Scrabble, Words With Friends, Word Jumble, and Text Twist, keeps every arrangement those dictionaries contain, and sorts the confirmed words by tile score. That sorting step is why extermination appears at the top of the results. A word on this page is a legal play in Scrabble and Words With Friends, not a letter combination that only looks like a word.
Unscrambling extermination produces two kinds of plays in Scrabble and Words With Friends: one high-scoring word, and one short word that fits a crowded board.
The high-scoring play is extermination. The short plays are ae and ai, and they cover the turns when the board leaves no open line long enough for the bigger word.
The score gap is exact: the lowest-scoring word from these letters earns 2 points in Scrabble and the highest-scoring word earns 22 points. The letters are identical in both cases, so the board decides the value of the turn.
UnscrambleX lists every word from these letters with its Scrabble score and its Words With Friends score, so the choice between points and board position is made from numbers instead of memory.
The results list works as a vocabulary drill for Scrabble and Words With Friends players. Cover the list, rearrange extermination in your head, and count how many of the 720 words you find before you check the answers.
Experienced players find the long words such as extermination without help. The short words are the ones that go unnoticed, and short words decide close games in Scrabble, Words With Friends, and Text Twist.
Repeat the drill on a few letter sets each day. Vowel positions, common endings such as -ed and -ing, and high-value tiles become recognisable without an unscrambler.
Unscrambling adds words that reading never supplies. No Scrabble player opens a dictionary to look for ae, and the word enters a playable vocabulary only because a results list produced it.
Spelling accuracy improves at the same time. Building extermination from loose tiles forces one letter order and returns a correct or incorrect verdict inside the same move, which is faster feedback than a spelling test. Plays from extermination range from 2 to 22 points in Scrabble, so every turn also asks a scoring question: take the points now, or keep the flexible tiles for the next turn.
Words assembled from tiles are remembered better than words only read, and timed games such as Text Twist and Word Jumble reward that recall directly.
