Session Notes - February 5, 2012 Session

This session marked the twenty-fourth week of NASPA Club #800 (Northwest Scrabble Club)'s 2011-2012 season!

The tournament rules divisions were joined by 7 players who played 46 games in which we scored 17,179 points for a 373.4565 point-per-game average. Of the 51 recorded bingos we played, 6 were phoneys that went unchallenged.

Travis Carlson claimed top honors in the A Division with a 4-1 +136 record, 13 bingos and a 428.60 ppg avg.

Norma Paxson again claimed top honors for the B Division.

Some numbers and whatnot for the tournament session include:

Some interesting bingos:

We featured two regular contests this week.

This week's regular contests were from the club archives.
If you have contest ideas or perhaps a favorite contest from the past, let me know, we'll try to work it into the mix.

There were 5 players in division A and 2 players in division B.

The first was the Starts Or Ends In "D" Contest for the highest scoring play of a main word that starts or ends in "D". In Division A, Janis Clem scored 34 with FAKED, Naurlene Canterman hit 71 with TENURED, Travis Carlson upped it to 75 with UNRAZED, Lewis Saul ADVISED everyone he was serious about this contest with 79, but Ed Saunders wouldn't rest until he won with 80 pts for UNRESTED. In Division B, Norma Paxson racked up 42 pts with DISHY, but Sarah Jacobson claimed the $1.50 payoff with 45 for HEED.

The second was The Fabrics Of Our Lives Contest for the highest scoring play of a main word that is, or incorporates somewhere within it, the name of some sort of fiber or fabric. In division "A", Naurlene Canterman stuffed the $3.75 prize in her 40 pt JEANS. Division B saw Norma Paxson claim the $1.50 payout with 16 pts for MOIRE.

Travis Carlson pulled $10.28 from the 9+ Bingo Progressive Jackpot. Travis threaded his EGLNPST rack (0 sevens, 1 eight, and 4 nines possible with that tough rack) through an existing A - open - I formation to score 63 pts with the phoney nine pleatings*.

The other Progressive Jackpots all went unclaimed this week and $1.31 will be added to each next session. We have paid out $299.24 in prizes this season. Click here for a complete list of prizes awarded during the 2011-2012 season.
