Session Notes - August 9, 2007 Session
This session marked the thirty-eighth of NSA Club #565's 2006-2007 season!
We enjoyed the company of Sarah Jacobson, visiting from Sherman Oaks, CA. Sarah will be moving to Tucson at the end of the year and we look forward to having her with us full time in the future.
With the August 2nd session, we began play with our new format, incorporating a Recreational Division into the club structure. Recreational players will not be charged formal dues, but a $2.00 optional prize fee will be charged to those who choose to enter the weekly contests (Recreational and Tournament Contests will be separate and will vary). Tournament Rules Division players will continue to be charged $3.00 weekly dues to cover club expenses and fund weekly prizes as in the past.
We were joined by 4 tournament players who played 18 games. Of the 23 recorded
bingos we played, one was a phony that went unchallenged.
Leslie Weber was the lone recreational player at this session.
Some numbers and whatnot for this session include:
- High Game - 570 points by Richard Spence
- Low Win - 320 points by Sarah Jacobson
- High Loss - 455 points by Ed Saunders (Opponent at 457)
- Bingo King - Richard Spence for averaging 2.1667 bingos per game
Some interesting bingos:
- ANEROIDS \n/pl. a type of barometer (played by Leslie Weber)
- ARENITE \n. rock made up chiefly of sand grains (played by Richard Spence)
- ELUATES \n/pl. the material obtained by eluting - removing by means of a solvent (played by Karen Lundeen)
- ESTRONE \n. an estrogen - a female sex hormone (played by Richard Spence)
- FEATLIER \adj. graceful (played by Ed Saunders)

We featured two regular contests this week.
The first regular contest was the Recreational Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that pertains to recreational activities. Ed Saunders had the only valid entry with "The tennis player took first place in the REGIONAL finals." (70 pts) and scores a $3.00 local prize.
The second regular contest was the "Where Was That, Again?" Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that describes a particular or general place or location. Karen Lundeen played GLEN for 15 points. Ed Saunders managed 70 points for REGIONAL. But Richard Spence went down in the TRENCHES for 85 points and climbed back out with the $3.00 prize.
Three of the Progressive Jackpots fell this week. Richard Spence led the assault with a 570 point game to cash out the Club 565 Progressive Jackpot. He also had the season's 7th Triple-Triple with TREADING for 131 points. Richard picks up $2.42 for the 3x3 and $1.12 for the Club 565 Jackpot. Ed Saunders walked off into the woods with his 100 point play of HERMITS and took along $3.17 for his efforts.
No one cashed in on the 9+Bingo Progressive Jackpot this week and it shall have $0.75 added to it. As of this session we have paid out $400.07 in prizes this season. Click here for a complete list of prizes awarded during the 2006-2007 season.
