McElligot's Pool Deep Cut

14 letters · 2 words · ~4s to type · 49 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type McElligot's Pool: Deep Cut, +85, 14 letters, about 4 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Green Eggs and Ham, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, or The Cat in the Hat — those are Plankton. The trench answer is The Butter Battle Book (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: The Butter Battle Book +100
