The records in each category are classified further based on the (environment [[tournament]] or [[club]]) and by the dictionary used ([[OTCWL]] or [[SOWPODS]], ignoring the specific edition).
In the words listed, lowercase letters stand for blanks and paranthesised letters stand for tiles already on the board. An asterisk (*) means that the word is a phony or that the score includes is known to include phonies. An octothorp (#) means that the word is acceptable in SOWPODS but not in OTCWL.
