Challenged but good: OUTWEEPS, FELLATED, HEHS, TUNABLE, WHAMO Player of the Night was Austin Nichols, who was a perfect 4-0 with a spread of +436. Austin was one of the overlappers, so he played players from both groups. In the official top group, Tijan Jeng was 3-1 +343, followed by Carole Denton, 3-1 +130, and Brian Bailey, 3-1 +30. In the official non-top group, KC Frodyma was tops 2-2 +185 and Grant Guenzel was 2-2 +80. No prizes were awarded, but it might be fun to dole out some cash to the winners down the road. Boosting our weekly contribution to $2 from $1 would create a token weekly prize fund. Any opposition? Bingo King was Austin Nichols with nine (DEBONING, DELISTED, PANDERS, EVASIONS, DANGLERS, GRITTERS, ANEROID, LEADENED, REUNITED). KC Frodyma had eight (CHASTENS, DECREASE, TANGIER, EBONIES, ENDRINS, POINTIER, AGITATED, SCORIAE). Dept. of Clever or Unusual Bingos: HONKIES (Bowen), UPRISES (Gest), ANTIPOLE and HEKTARES (Fatsis), MARISMA (Bailey), PULSARS (Denton). Dept. of Unusual Plays: Jen Cohen had a nine-letter out bingo to win: RECOUNTER from RE on a triple line. Austin Nichols extended INLET to INLETTING on a triple. Dept. of Shame: In the same week that Joe Edley railed on CGP about players allowing this to happen, Brian Bailey and Tijan Jeng ended a game with six consecutive turns of zero. Final score: Brian 33, Tijan 18. In their defense, Tijan said he was unfamiliar with the rule. Your Guest Director, Stefan Fatsis
