Re: LL Season 97

12/12 on the RNA 1DS, but ended up 14th due to non-optimal moneying. Gratz to cmp146 on her win, though. Thank you. It was a very pleasant surprise after some lucky coin flips to get all 12 right. I was shocked that my moneying was so good. Perhaps randomly clicking things will be my money-selectio...

Re: LL Season 91

First demotion in 27 seasons. My QPCT was among my highest, but it was bad defense and just plain being unlucky. Ah well. You were also a victim of superior point assignments from your opponents. We had similar performances with same total correct answers, but I got far more 3 points than you did. ...

Re: LL87 deadline is October 28 - JboardLite rundle is open

It is LL87 minus 5 days now :) . fyi - I have PM'd bosun with a reminder about deadlines, but his twelvefootboy filter is working as planned. Is that hard coded into the message board now?? I have also reminded him at the breakfast table. :-) Hopefully that filter was not operating at the time.

Re: Learned League 86 - Aug/Sep 2020

Was anyone else given credit for "Crystal" on the Riedel question? I was happy to see Thorston's leniency for that answer. A Facebook friend's recap mentioned giving that answer and getting credit. That should be correct. Riedel makes fancy crystal wine glasses in different shapes to enha...

I feel like I could have gotten Interpreter of Maladies if I had had someone read the question to me with Trebek-like intonation on "translator in a doctor's office." I had "Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures" stuck in my head for a while, based on the doctor's office, but knew i...

Re: Learned League 84

That feeling when you realize that the song that you thought was "Angel" - an abstract name applied to a woman, is actually "Angie" a common woman's name. <sigh> Serves me right for not actually looking at the song lists of my dad's various compilation tapes and records.

I managed to get a 9(6) yesterday with a couple good guesses on Crossroads (without Brittany Spears) and Ford. Still in last place and still winless.

A hint steered me wrong on the Friday set. Going through literally all the state capitals, I had Trenton, Atlanta, Little Rock, and Jackson as the likeliest to have a high percentage of black population. Left with just the raw question and the #2 and #3 cities provided, I would have gone Jackson, s...

Taiga D, Div 2, after promotion from E. Does Cyndi update the roster every new season? I think I don't need to do anything to be current.
