quizjockey

I made up a two-part word that has a meaning that makes sense.

quiz jockey

A jockey is someone competitive in sports. Usually, it refers to a horse jockey(though the horse does all the work). People have also used the word disc jockey. Often this is shortened to jock, which is a term for an athlete.

However, if competitive sports were solving quizzes, then a quiz jockey would be a real thing. This word is not allowed in words with friends as far as I am aware, but if it were, it would be the highest-scoring 10-letter word. If made plural, then quiz jockeys would be the highest-scoring 11-letter word!

Words with Friends accepts quizmaster as a compound word of quiz and master. If the same reasoning were applied, this word I invented, “quizjockey”, would definitely be the best word to ever exist for points.
