Dear mongolia,

Here are 5 examples, as you requested, each with proof of existence
through dictionary entries:

RAZZMATAZZ - there are only one Z and two blanks in the game, not
enough for all four Zs in this word.

PIZZAZZ - see above.
http://www.bartleby.com/61/8/P0340800.html

KNICKKNACK - four Ks in the word, but only one K and two blanks in the game.
http://www.bartleby.com/61/92/K0089200.html

SENSELESSNESSES - far too many Ss for the four contained in the
tileset and the two blanks.

STRESSLESSNESS - see above.

Hope this answers your question!
