/ | | AVG POINTS | AVG BINGOS | CLUB RATING Session Notes: We were happy to see an old friend drop
in for some games. Complaining about the lack of competition in Solvang,
CA, Jason Sommer drove 700 miles for a visit. He'll be in town for a few
weeks and attending club. This was our 19th session of the season.
15 players competed in 31 games in which a total of 22,155 points were
scored. Our players threw down 61 bingos this session. Of those bingos, five
were phonies that went unchallenged. Naurlene Canterman was the night's top
player with her 5-1 +191 scorecard. Ed Saunders wears the Bingo King crown
this week by turning in eight bingos in four games.Rex Kremer wins the $7.50 prize for
High Game with a 529-pointer. Joshua Kassel won the 9+ Bingo Jackpot with
a phoney bingo of retirings* -- an effort that only scored him 63
points but that wins a $3.75 prize as well. Nobody scored a Triple-Triple
play, and $3.75 will be added to the Triple-Triple Jackpot. For the St. Patrick's Day contest, the
$7.50 prize goes to Naurlene for a 40-point play of KEG (a common
fixture at a St. Patty's Day party). The idea for this contest was to play
a word associated with the St. Partick's Day holiday or Ireland. The idea
was to be creative, and the prize was almost won by Ed Saunders for a 90-point
play of WOOZIEST. In thinking long and hard about it, I decided that
WOOZIEST (maybe used to describe the drunkest little leprechaun?) might have
been stretching it a bit. Then again, it was a nice word and a bingo to boot.
So I flipped a coin; it didn't make the contest (sorry, Ed). Finally, everyone wish Vic Kaye a happy
birthday! Vic is turning the big six zero this week. Send him your best wishes
for continued health and happiness. Next session (27 March
2003) will feature prizes for:
- Low Win (a quarter of dues collected) - "PRE-fix" Contest - A prize will be awarded to the player who plays the highest-scoring word that begins with PRE (e.g., PREX, PREZES, PREVIEW, etc.). (a quarter of dues collected). - Triple-Triple plays ($3.75 plus an eighth of dues collected) - 9+ Bingos (an eighth of dues collected)
Below are the bingos and their anagrams
