We featured two regular contests this week.
The first regular contest was the First Day Of Autumn Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that pertains to the fall season. Richard Spence submitted "In Tucson, it is still WARM in the fall." (25 pts) Ed Saunders, though, climbed on the wagon with "The teens spread out several bales of HAY on the wagon, hooked up the horses, and headed out for an early autumn hayride." (47 pts). Ed rides off into the night with his $3.00 prize.
The second was the Oh, "K", Let's Have A Contest for the highest
scoring play of a word that contains the letter "K" somewhere
within it. Karen Lundeen submitted ARK (22), Richard
Spence turned in KAF (24), Monique Kornell poured
herself a BOCK (44), but Ed Saunders' KEISTER
(81) wins the $3.00 prize.
Ed Saunders picked up two of the Progressive Jackpots this week, playing
BAROQUES for 107 points to win the 100+Play and
finding FALCONETS through the "AL"
to take the 9+Bingo pot as well. Ed wins $0.75 for the 100+ Play and $5.63
for the 9+Bingo.
