Session Notes - August 12, 2007 Session
The Northwest Club will continue to meet at the Highlands Community Clubhouse through August 26th.
This session marked the second of NSA Club #565 (Northwest)'s 2007-2008 season!
The tournament rules division was joined by 6 players who played 24 games in which we scored 9,164 points for a 381.83 point-per-game average. Of the 33 recorded bingos we played, two were phonies that went unchallenged.
Dee Keys and Joni Perry, both residents of the Highlands community, dropped in and played a couple of games in the recreational division. We're expecting at least four recreational players next week and hoping for more.
Some numbers and whatnot for the tournament session include:
- High Game - 506 points by Ed Saunders
- Low Win - 345 points by Judy Carlock
- High Loss - 426 points by Richard Spence (Opponent at 439)
- Bingo King - Ed Saunders for averaging 2.5000 bingos per game

This was our first week of running regular weekly contests and we featured two.
The first was the Did You Hear About This? Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that pertains to sound. Michael Rhodes submitted "Edison found that his VOICE was heard clearly on his first recording." 30 pts, but Ed Saunders set the tone for this contest with "His keen musical ear recognized the tone immediately as the MEDIANT of the scale being played." 66 pts. Ed cashes in to the tune of $4.50.
The second was the Mind Your "Qs" Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that contains the letter "Q" somewhere within it. Richard Spence found QIS with the "Q" both ways on a triple letter score for 66 pts and the $4.50 prize.
No one cashed in on any of the Progressive Jackpots this week and each shall have $1.12 added to it. As of this session we have paid out $9.00 in prizes this season. Click here for a complete list of prizes awarded during the 2007-2008 season.
