Scrabble Tourney Weekend
The short version: I went 8-6, won the class prize ($50), had the highest animal word bingo (CROAKER, 81, for which I won protiles), and according to metagrams.com, will enjoy a 70 point ratings bump.
My rating going in: 1223
Day 1: 3-1. Day 2: 4-3; Day 3: 1-2.
I won against people who were rated: 1365 (+7), 1351 (+43), 1269 (+28), 1146 (+121), 1505 (+39), 1435 (+44), 1434 (+195), 1405 (+16)
I lost to people who were rated: 1304 (-113), 1061 (-28), 1193 (-36), 1565 (-46 and -71), 1505 (-182)
Bingos: TEAMINg (83), ELATiON (70), TaRRIES (64), TILAPIA (69), UNL(I)STED (60), TREATIN(G) (72), ARGUERS (85), RERAISE (65), SITUaTE (67), nOTAtES (75), AlIASED* (65), FENDINg (78), TIMIDeR (80), NEREIDS (74), FIDGETs (71), AROINTS (64), crOAKER (81), GARLIcS (73), AGONISE (70), SCOOPER (81), RE(S)INNED* (59)
Bingos I now know that I missed, that were playable: PORGIES/SERPIGO, BIOTRON, TRICORN, SIDECAR, SOOTIER. Those last two may have won me two of the last games.
In the games I won, I drew 10 blanks, out of the posible 16.
In the games I lost, I drew 3 blanks, out of the possbile 12.
Good plays using words that I only knew based on studying for this tournament: KYTE (49), ANEARS (27), YEGG (33), PLOTZ (32), KINO (24), REIF (26), ILEX (33)
