If you used radix 40 you could pack 3 characters per word. That gets you upper case 'A' to 'Z', '0' to '9' and four left over for punctuation e.g. ' ', '.', '?' and '!'.

Good luck to the people that enter the contest. I'd love to enter but its been a long time since I programmed in FORTH and I have a ton of other retro project project commitments this year so realistically I won't have time to pick up the language again.

I'm not familiar with your framework but I think continuing your tutorial series would be good. If we could have a "Programming Intellivision for newbies" as a sub forum of the Inty programming forum to go along with it then it could all be contained in one place. That would make your life easier to update the required files on AA as and when required.
