Metamagic?

[Lord Twitchiopolis]

While I like the concept of Words of Power, there is one issue that I feel needs clarified; the use of Metamagic Feats.

I take it that a metamagic word spell uses a spell slot of x-levels higher and otherwise has the same word limit? How do words and metamagic that effect casting time interract? Do words have verbal and/or somatic components? Can they be affected by still/silent spell? The sheer concept of a "word" spell that can be cast silently is somewhat novel.

Perhaps the word would be scrawled on a piece of parchment?

Yah. My bad V_V'

But I still wonder about the components (V,S) of a word spell. I may just be overlooking these too, but they are important.

Oh thats easy:

Material:A bag full of scrabble letters.
Somatic:Taking letters out of the bag.
Verbal:announce your word score to the world.

Clearly, you need a spell-checker.
