BAT 2006… Wow… What a cool experience.
Went down to Westford on Saturday – after spending the night in Portsmouth Friday Night. Had a complete blast playing in my first ever Scrabble tournament.
I ended up placing 8th out of 12 players, with a Win/Loss record of 3/3 and I accomplished what I set out to do – Go home either breaking even or with more wins than losses.
Picked up a Pocket SamTimer and a set of Protiles. And I played the highest scoring non-bingo word – RELAX – for 81 points, and won a customized BAT 25th 2006 tilebag. Sherri St. John makes them for prizes - it’s a faux suede bag – looks and feels real nice.
I can’t wait until next year – I’ll be playing in the big tournament. There were about 200 people playing, and it was an incredible sight to see. Custom round boards, customized racks, and incredibly quiet! But I think I can do well in the Division D Tourney.
