Session Notes - 28 December 2006 Session
Wishing all of you the happiest, healthiest, and most prosperous of New Years!
This session marked the eighth of NSA Club #565's 2006-2007 season!
We again enjoyed the pleasant company of visitor Sandra Masel (Melbourne, Australia) who will be leaving New Year's Eve for the land down under. We were joined by 5 players who played 12 games in which we scored 9,096 points for a 758 (379 ind) point-per-game average. Of the 33 recorded bingos we played, none was a phony that went unchallenged.
Some numbers and whatnot for this session include:
- High Game - 487 points by Lewis Saul
- Low Win - 365 points by Ed Saunders
- High Loss - 388 points by Judy Carlock (Opponent at 406)
- Bingo King - Ed Saunders for averaging 1.8571 bingos per game
- It's deja vu all over again - Lewis Saul was
seeing double in his games against Naurlene Canterman and Judy Carlock.
. . .Naurlene opened their game with IODINE
at H3, Lewis's counter. . . .IODINE at 5F.
In his game against Judy, he managed to drop GAROTING on the board, followed shortly thereafter by GARROTE, more than enough to put a stranglehold on the win.
Some interesting bingos:
- DEVILRY \n. Mischief, a variant of DEVILTRY (played by Sandra Masel)
- INCENTS \v. Provides with an incentive (played by Ed Saunders)
- OCEANAUT \n. A scuba diver trained to live in underwater installations. A synonym of AQUANAUT (played by Lewis Saul)
- ONANIST \n. One who practices onanism - coitus interruptus (played by Judy Carlock)
- RENEGADO \n. A traitor (played by Ed Saunders)
- RENVOIS \n.pl. The expulsion by a government of an alien (played by Naurlene Canterman)
- SPOOLER \n. One that spools - to wind on a small cylinder (played by Lewis Saul)
- TENSILE \adj. Capable of being stretched, a variant of TENSIBLE (played by Sandra Masel)
- VISCERAL \adj. Pertaining to the internal organs (played by Judy Carlock)
We featured two contests this session. The first was the Endangered Species
Contest for the highest scoring play of or pertaining to a species considered
to be endangered or extinct or of a word representative of a bygone era
in history. We had two entries for this contest. Naurlene Canterman submitted
ICEBERGS (39 pts) - Endangered animals such as polar bears are affected
by lack of ICEBERGS. Lewis Saul wins it, though, with OCEANAUT (80 pts)
- The OCEANAUT discovered a cave with many endangered species of fish.
The second was the Happy New Year Contest, awarded to the highest scoring
play of a word that pertains to the new year, its celebrations, its expectations,
whatever. . . . There were three entries in this contest with Lewis Saul
again picking up the prize for SMOLDER (81 pts) - The crowd SMOLDERed with
excitement as the ball began to drop.
Lewis picks up a cool $7.50 for the evening.
