Session Notes - 12 July 2007 Session

This session marked the thirty-fourth of NSA Club #565's 2006-2007 season!

We were joined by 3 players who played 5 games in which we scored 3,983 points for a 796.8 (398.4 ind) point-per-game average. Of the 16 recorded bingos we played, none was a phony that went unchallenged.

Some numbers and whatnot for this session include:

Some interesting bingos:

This was the twenty-sixth and final week of the "Special Letter Bingo Contest" with "X" being the "Special Letter" for the week. Click here for rules and final standings No points were scored this week.
Ed Saunders picks up the $13.00 first place prize with 17 points. Lewis Saul grabs second place and $8.00 with 5 points and Karen Lundeen squeezes out the $5.00 third place prize with 4 points.

We featured two regular contests this week.

The first regular contest was the On Walden Pond Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that pertains to the idyllic pleasures of country living. Monique Kornell submitted "The summer days were SUNNIER and longer and Thoreau enjoyed them thoroughly." (64 pts.) Ed Saunders wins it, though, with "The laughing rancheros gathered around the hapless COWHAND sprawled out in the dusty corral, right where his frisky little filly had deposited him just moments before." (95 pts.) Ed stuffs $1.75 into his bib overalls and moseys on home.

The second regular contest was the "The Name of the Game Is ???" Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that is the name of a recognizable game. There were no entries for this contest and it will run again next week with $1.75 awaiting the winner.

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 $378.31 in prizes this season. Click here for a complete list of prizes awarded during the 2006-2007 season.
