In the Tournament session, we were joined by 3 tournament division players who played 12 games in which we scored 4,451 points for a 370.92 points per game average. Of the 14 recorded bingos we played, two were phonies that went unchallenged.

Some numbers and whatnot for this tournament session include:

Some interesting bingos:

We featured two regular contests this week

The first regular contest was the "DG" Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that contains the letters "D" and "G" somewhere within it. Sarah Jacobson had a gaudy 39 pt play of GAUDY, Mickey Matz graphed out a plan to win with his 84 pt play of GRAPHED, but Ed Saunders threw up a red light on that plan with his 92 pt phony redlight* and cruises away from the intersection with the $2.25 prize.

The second regular contest was the Calling All Foodies Contest for the highest scoring play of a word that is the name of, or incorporates the name of somewhere within it, some type or form of food. Mickey Matz tried a 27 pt slice of ZA, Sarah Jacobson showed she was game with her 28 pt HEN, but Ed Saunders took an extra slice of ZA to go along with a bit of FIZ to score 54 pts and the $2.25 prize.

Ed's $4.50 winnings will be donated back to the club kitty.

No one cashed in on any of the Progressive Jackpots this week and each shall have $0.56 added to it. We have paid out a total of $131.12 in prizes during the 2008-2009 season. Click here for a complete list of prizes awarded during the 2008-2009 season.

The next session (December 4, 2008) shall feature the following contests:
