The day I get a 9 I'm too early for it (gloopiest) - just typing it here I see my phone even knows it!
Anyway then I get vaguism and it doesn't look like I can have that either, even though I'm often guilty of it. Hmmmm.

A couple equallers in the WITCHES/HECTICS round, one of which, apparently, is "CWTCHES".
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

Cr*p play by myself today, had MARINED disallowed and spelt ITINERARY as ITENARY and declared it (doh!) , on a better day Jacob would not have taken me to a crucial- just goes to show what a day without Apterous has an effect on your play lol. Rant aside, Jacob had a strong debut for a non-Apterite and I did feel for Roger as he was certainly a capable player, but it can be the cruelty of the game- if that were me, I'd say it was down to Rachel's dress being a big distraction :lol: Jacob seems a nice chap and he could be either a player who octos or possibly gets eliminated in the next game- we never know.
My scores for today:
Me:91-18 (Roger)
Me:83-69 (Jacob)

Just realised I missed NOBLEITE which I have kicked myself for as I've definitely declared it on apterous before.
All my beaters have been said except one: MORUTI in r1.

Slight error in scores after R13..., Jacob’s score remains on 66, despite his 5 being allowed, but as soon as R14 starts, he suddenly has 71 points... :oops: :oops:
