Z Sunday Scrabble Rapport
(June 23, 2024) 14 of us at club, always wishing we could win that next Scrabble game.
Glenn was really knocking out wins when he returned to club after a several year hiatus recently. He can certainly find the bingoes, and played 5 of them today. LIFELIKE scored 80 and the most unusual one was EBONITE.
Jay L. is back, and found RETINTS for 63. ZITS for 49 was excellent.
Trish had a mid-afternoon win, playing SALTINE, RUSTLES, TUNNIES, and SANDIER.
Suzanne had a big-time win, her 404 beating a high-ranked clubber by a great margin. Watch her play RENTERS, STARING, and SALTINE.
Mitzi is back, and only lost once, finding CHATTERS for 62.
Kurt (2-1) had a 411 game and played SERVING, SEARING, and AUNTLIER.
Mike B. only lost once as well, and in addition to MAIMERS, played the ever-so-timely DEBATES for 69.
If you are going to have to settle for 2 wins, do it like Jay J. He wins his first game of the day with a big 396, and wins his last game, leaving for the day with another taste of victory. QUADS for 67, the high non-bingo today! FILTHIER, TATTIEST, and DEVOURED all must have helped.
George M. was 3-2, playing words like CONVENTS, AIRIEST, SPEARER, and GRAINED.
Louis only lost once today, aided by big scores with HINTERS, REINCITE, STICKERS, and RESIZES for 93!
Mark was 3-2 today, with a 512 game that scored the most of any game this session! FOREX for 46 was a pretty one. 6 bingoes for Mark, fewer than usual. TENONED was unusual, and FROSTING (86) scored the most.
I was 4-1 today, and that one loss was the highest-scoring loss of the day at 398. OK, still a loss. I did manage 10 bingoes in those 5 games. This Bingo King crown fits terribly, but that’s OK, I definitely do not wear it often. SLEDDER for 110 was fun, but not the high bingo today. FAIRER for 61 was not the high non-bingo either!
Jacob had quite the day at 4-2, with all four of those wins scoring higher than 400. Of his 6 bonus words, STONIER scored 115, the highest-scoring play of the day. ZOA for 65 was so close to the high non-bingo.
Undefeated? Dang it, it is tough for us when Ruchi is well-rested! She went 6-0 today, with 8 bingoes. COJOINED would make an interesting PowerPoint slide illustration. LOUNGIER just doesn’t look right, but perfectly good.
Disappointed with that low score in one of your games? It happens to the best of us. Literally. To the best of us. Our two highest-rated players today, playing each other, had final scores of 310 to 278. I’m making this remark because…it is remarkable!
OK, GIANT Scrabble, played on the big Scrabble Rug with Jacob’s custom-made GIANT Scrabble tiles. Teams! Next Saturday June 29 at 930 AM, just for two hours. It’s fun, and hopefully will stimulate some interest in club. Location: Across from Barnes and Noble bookstore at Biltmore Park Town Square 33 Town Square Blvd Asheville, NC 28803. Dress for summer, with hat, sunscreen, and your beverage for the cooler we will bring.
Yes, we will still have club the next day on Sunday, June 30!
