B-b-but did you make the cut?

40th place, in honor of U2.

82nd overall - not moneying Candace Cameron and incorrectly moneying TWICE in round 3 killed me, as did round 3 in general. Nice work, Greg!

Nice work, fellas! B-b-but what about the third man, Harry LLima, how did he do?

Not really a question specific to this thread, but has anyone been doing the Spelling Bee?
― Quit It And Hit It Sideways (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 4 September 2020 05:05 (five years ago)
Not the one in the NYT?

― maura, Friday, 4 September 2020 09:02 (five years ago)
Same, I play it every day, and enough to have noticed its recent changes.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Friday, 4 September 2020 19:23 (five years ago)
Squeaked out a win yesterday thanks to my middling theater score, which I think may have prompted my opponent to assign 3 for the very earnest question.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Friday, 4 September 2020 21:21 (five years ago)
Meanwhile, I got 0 points for the hardest league-wide question that I ever got right.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Friday, 4 September 2020 21:32 (five years ago)
Thanks to my middling score, I knew that if *I* knew "earnest" everybody was gonna know.

It used to limit itself to two vowels (not counting y), now it has up to 3.It used to never have ED or ING among its letters.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Saturday, 5 September 2020 17:31 (five years ago)
Oh so many more words possible now?
― Quit It And Hit It Sideways (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 5 September 2020 17:43 (five years ago)
So even harder to be Queen Bee?
― Quit It And Hit It Sideways (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 5 September 2020 17:44 (five years ago)
Yes and probably yes (I only ever Queen when the genius level point total is < 100 points).
I haven't seen or reached 300 points yet, but 200 is much more common.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Saturday, 5 September 2020 17:51 (five years ago)
won 8(4) - 4(4) yesterday #defense
― mookieproof, Saturday, 5 September 2020 18:17 (five years ago)
I’ve got 88 points today so far, guess Queen Bee is 108, but I’ve run dry.
― Quit It And Hit It Sideways (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 5 September 2020 19:08 (five years ago)
spelling bee yesterday wouldn't accept "cope" as an answer, despite using the middle letter.
I am getting absolutely crushed this LL season, and I miss my rookie rundle.
― unashamed and trash (Unctious), Saturday, 5 September 2020 21:00 (five years ago)
Yeah, that was a big issue.
― Quit It And Hit It Sideways (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 5 September 2020 21:13 (five years ago)
Spelling Bee talk probably makes more sense in the xwords puzzle thread.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Saturday, 5 September 2020 23:27 (five years ago)
I'm on a 3-match winning streak and am crawling away from the relegation zone! I thought the last match that I might've defended extremely poorly and although I narrowly eked out a win, thanks to being gifted 3 points for Venus.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Wednesday, 9 September 2020 18:48 (five years ago)
gonna be lucky if i can hold on in c tbh
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 9 September 2020 18:49 (five years ago)
got credit for aphrodite yesterday, which was probably undeserved
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 9 September 2020 18:59 (five years ago)
Win streak at 4! Which is probably going to end today as I'm facing off against our rundle leader.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Thursday, 10 September 2020 18:31 (five years ago)
Streak ended as expected, but I had TWO chances to win and blew them both miserably. So any right now.
― Ruth Bae Ginsburg (Leee), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:14 (five years ago)
a player in my rundle has allowed just 3 UfPA in 16 matches
wtf
― mookieproof, Friday, 11 September 2020 15:22 (five years ago)
Some people take a lot of time on defense?Sometimes my defense gets on a hot streak but I really don't like to spend a lot of effort on it at this pont.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:28 (five years ago)
My first 9/5 yesterday

Cool! I believe in LL lingo - LLingo! - that is called a Dolly Parton.

j/k

Someone else had your name and initial when you joined? Also, a little extra-impressive since you missed the easiest question of the season thus far.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:43 (five years ago)
I'm on track to have my 2nd-highest TCA this season, but I'm languishing in the relegation zone with a record of 3-9-4.
I did just notice that I have my own branch now, even though there are only 4 people in it!
― jaymc, Friday, 11 September 2020 15:46 (five years ago)
Wondering if it is because our friend who recruited you is inactive.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:48 (five years ago)
Actually some people HAVE called that a Dolly Parton, but not sure if that is Commissioner-approved.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:50 (five years ago)
I see people on the same Branch are also all in the same Rundle.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:53 (five years ago)
Same league (Keystone, in my case), if not same rundle.
― jaymc, Friday, 11 September 2020 15:55 (five years ago)
Oh right, that's what I was trying to say.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:57 (five years ago)
Seems like your Branch can also affect your Division.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:58 (five years ago)
So all the people who are in your branch who are not you are in C Keystone Div 1
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 15:59 (five years ago)
Just noticed something else. I believe the Past Answers page on the the Commissioner's Desk used to only give the current season or prior season in the off-season but now it has lots of seasons along with MLs.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 16:12 (five years ago)
you missed the easiest question of the season thus far.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 11 September 2020 17:43 (five years ago)
It took me a microsecond to retrieve it.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 18:03 (five years ago)
I guess no one has to leave for a new branch to formed, I just saw in my lineage.
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 11 September 2020 21:40 (five years ago)
I'm a respectable 7-8-2 now, so my upcoming match vs NA might actually be interesting.

Things i never thought i would say: gee, i am glad i listened to that dj khaled/drake song twice yesterday
