Session Notes - July 17, 2008 Session
This session marked the thirty-sixth week of NSA Club #565's 2007-2008 season!
Since this season will be our first full season as a two-tiered club with
both a Recreational and a separate Tournament Rules Division. There will
be some tweaking done as the Recreational Division develops.
There were no games in the Recreational Division this week. Click
here for a roster of Recreational Players
In the Tournament session, we were joined by 2 tournament division players who played 6 games in which we scored 2,352 points for a 392.0 points per game average. Of the 11 recorded bingos we played, none was a phony that went unchallenged.
Some numbers and whatnot for this tournament session include:
- High Game - 550 points by Ed Saunders
- Low Win - 425 points by Ed Saunders
- High Loss - 353 points by Pat Madea (Opponent at 425)
- Bingo King - Ed Saunders for averaging 3.0000 bingos per game
Some interesting bingos:
- COSTARS \v. to star with another actor (played by Ed Saunders)
- SHRIVES \v. to hear the confession of and grant absolution to (played by Ed Saunders)
- UNFURLED \v. to unroll (played by Pat Madea)
- WASTRIE \n. WASTRY - reckless extravagance (played by Ed Saunders)
- WEEKLY ANAGRAM CHALLENGE. . . . Ed Saunders provides our challenge this week. With a rack of AEIRSTW, Ed played the bingo WASTRIE, which has THREE anagrams. Can you find the anagrams for WASTRIE? Answer in the "Bingos" section below.
We featured two regular contests this week
The first regular contest was the Birds Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that is the name of, or contains the name of somewhere within it, a bird. Ed Saunders didn't feel at all awkward about winning this contest with his AUK word, scoring 27 points and the $1.50 prize.
The second regular contest was the "B"s Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that begins with the letter "B". Ed Saunders beat the drum for this contest, back-hooking the "O" from his bingo COSTARS to form the word BONGO for 88 pts. Ed pounded out another $1.50 for this play.
Ed Saunders launched a full-scale attack on the 100+ Point Play Progressive Jackpot this week, topping the century mark with a D/D of HOARDED for 108 pts and following that up with a TWS of WASTRIE for 100 even. Ed picks up another $0.37 for his efforts.
Ed's $3.37 winnings will be donated back to the club kitty. In addition
to Ed's winnings, Pat Madea donated his $2.25 winnings from the July 10th
CON-test Contest to the club kitty, as well. Thanks!
No one cashed in on any of the other Progressive Jackpots this week and
each shall have $0.37 added to it. As of this session we have paid out $243.60
in prizes this season. Click
