Session Notes - June 5, 2008 Session

This session marked the thirtieth 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.

We welcomed, and enjoyed the company of, Scrabulous player Risa Shire who made her first visit to club this Thursday. Risa comprised our recreational division this week, playing a game each against Pat Madea and Ed Saunders. Click here for a roster of Recreational Players

In the Tournament session, we were joined by 2 tournament division players who played 4 games in which we scored 1,438 points for a 359.50 points per game average. Of the 5 recorded bingos we played, none were phonies that went unchallenged.

Some numbers and whatnot for this tournament session include:

Some interesting bingos:

We featured two regular contests this week

The first regular contest was the LOcation, LOcation, LOcation! Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that contains the letter couplet "LO", in that order, somewhere within it. Pat Madea's fourth play of the session loomed big in this contest as he took it with LOOM for 10 pts to weave his way home with the $2.25 prize.

The second regular contest was the Hydration Is Important! Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that is the name, or incorporates the name of somewhere within it, a beverage of some kind. Risa Shire picked up her first contest win with AQUA for 18 points, adding the "A" to an already existing "QUA" to form AQUA/AH and take a $2.25 sip from the winner's cup.

No one cashed in on any of the Progressive Jackpots this week and each shall have $0.56 added to it. As of this session we have paid out $191.80 in prizes this season. Click here for a complete list of prizes awarded during the 2007-2008 season.

The next session (June 12, 2008) shall feature the following contests:
• CAT! Contest - A quarter of dues collected shall be awarded to the player who turns in the highest scoring play of a word that contains all three of the letters "C - A - T", in any order, somewhere within it. (e.g. LOCATION, CATAWBA, ABREACT, CABRESTO, ACROBATS, DIATONIC, CALAMITY, etc.).
• DOG! Contest - A quarter of dues collected shall be awarded to the player who turns in the highest scoring play of a word that contains all three of the letters "D - O - G", in any order, somewhere within it. (e.g. GODETIA, WATCHDOG, LAPDOGS, GAROTED, GOATHERD, LOIDING, GEODESIC, DOTAGES, etc.)
•Triple-Triple Progressive Jackpot* - $13.05 plus a sixteenth of the session's dues will be awarded to any player who scores a Triple-Triple play.
