Carl Graves marks Karl Marx's grave.
DA WINNAH!
DA WINNAH of what!? Did the rules change in midstream?

Carl Graves marks Karl Marx's grave.

Do the extra points count more than the points not gotten for having words that are etymologically related to each other? The only words that are etymologically related as far as I can tell are Carl and Karl. I mean it's a good pun but.
