tell me about it

Keeping a long (and miserable, sniff) story short:

Finished in 4th place, went up 8 rating points to 1595, mwahaha I’m still in B division for Nationals, YOU CAN’T GET RID OF ME SO EASILY :D

On the sad side, I lost three out of six games today, finished up with 8 games out of 12 (what’s with all these multiples of 4?), two short of my goal of 10 out of 12.  My tile-drawing luck that bolstered me throughout Day 1 disappeared only to return for my last game.

Today’s bingos: TOLUENE, FAiNTER, STARLIt, CROUTON, READING.  Pathetic :( I was quite proud of TOLUENE which I saw just before I was about to play something else.  Also pleased with natural CROUTON. :D

Final average score: 379.92 :(
Final opponent average score: 362.17

Must. Study. Harder.

Nationals up next.
