I have to say I just got really lucky with that oilcup word. Silly compound words.

Incidentally, please try to actually play all of your games through until the end.  It's especially important in the first round, where point differential could be the deciding factor.  If you resign your game and end it early, it has the potential to affect the results.

Gah Seneca!

Both my games are close.  I knew zep was going to be tough competition.  I just don't want to be out after one round!
I don’t know what to put here anymore

And my games are taking longer, mainly since I only have time in the morning and before I go to bed.  So sorry if it seems like I'm dragging a little.  I have a concert next week so I'm a little busy ;)

So you... splent kicked my ass.  Final score of 460 - 314.  :(

It was crazy close for the first half of the game, then he played a 7-letter word and it sorta just spiraled out of control from there....

So point differential... looks like splent wins.

EDIT: Just finished our game. I ended up winning 524 to 457.

You both are very worthy opponents... I knew it was going to be close with zep but then I just got the right letters at the right time. It happened a couple of times with Seneca... I played a 7 letter word then he played Joey on a triple word (with the j on triple letter) and I knew it was over lol

So what's the status of the other players?

I started well in both games, but unless I get some better letters, both of my opponents are going to catch me.

Update:

Splent has won Pool 1 via point differential.  All three of us went 1-1, but the final point differentials were:  Splent +79, senecadawg2 +57, ZeppelinDT -136.

Also - if we do this again and end up with pool play, I think next time the first round should consist of two games per pairing (so a total of 4 games per person in the first round rather than 2).  2 games seemed to just go by way too fast.

Wow... Tough bracket.

Scio - 492
Jingle - 360

113 point "weeniest" with DL + TL + TW pretty much demoralized me.
