Tarantella One in a Krillion

10 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 92 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Tarantella: One in a Krillion, +100, 10 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Ballet, Hip hop, Salsa, or Tap — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.
