I sure didn't think it'd ever happen!!! All that childhood tv watching in Canada paid off!!!

Very clear example of the Last Name Only rule in a recent 1DS.

Just taking a look now at who is in the MLs.

Not as singular as winning a 1DS outright but I squeaked into the top 10 of (of all things) Ballroom and Latin Dancing!
― Pomelo Anthony (Leee), Friday, 15 April 2022 21:20 (four years ago)
So you did! Not as good as either of those but I made the top 5% on Tracks of an Old iPhone 3.
― Ramones Leave the Capitol (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 April 2022 21:34 (four years ago)
It's official name was Tracks on an Old iPhone 3, but I feel like an opportunity was lost by using that preposition instead of the one I used.

Regretting a bit not doing Advice ML. Also just peeked at the handful of testers signed up so far for my 1DS, very interesting so far.

it was fun to have a Fugazi one-day. i think i did good, but not great (i missed a couple).
― na (NA), Thursday, 21 April 2022 19:01 (four years ago)
I did a null submission or ghost submission for Fugazi. Can’t remember if we discussed here how to do that.

Cool! Cranking through some 1DS testing I signed up for last week right now.

Sorry I flaked on you, Greg, but it seems like a couple of people here participated and did okay, and you had a reasonable turnout.

Curious if the DMB 1DS talks about why they are so bad and hated.

Kind of a trip playing English vocab and pop mythology at the same time. Former has generally been hard and hard to defend (DE around .500 and .600), but the latter has an average DE around .700 or .800.
― Star Trek: Strange New Wordles (Leee), Saturday, 7 May 2022 17:58 (four years ago)
English vocab drama: I was in 3rd coming into MD11 and playing first place, so I didn't think I had much chance yesterday of making the final. But the person in second, who had been in first or second every match day, had a really bad day and lost, and I was able to catapult into second. I haven't opened up the championship yet but expect to do pretty poorly, as this is only the second time I made it to the round.
― Star Trek: Strange New Wordles (Leee), Wednesday, 11 May 2022 17:17 (four years ago)
Aaaaand I got one question right in the Championship, so it's barely better than not playing in it at all!
― Santa Barbarous (Leee), Thursday, 12 May 2022 17:30 (four years ago)
lol I qualified for the English Vocab championship but took a look at the questions last night and was like "nope." Not the first time I have skipped a ML championship, though I do feel bad for whoever I beat out to get there, who might have actually wanted to play it.

I got this right and yet I have to agree

I coudn't think of it and meant to agree earlier.

couple days ago i got five right, my opponent got three right, and i lost : /

Are others finding the questions harder so far? I'm on pace to post my worst ever TCA.

Got my 7th 9(6) yesterday, which happens rarely enough that I actually do a completely unironic first pump when I get one.
― Gianni Fursace (Leee), Saturday, 4 June 2022 17:55 (four years ago)
I know it is often considered impolite, but yesterday’s get rates on Q2 and Q3… and even Q4.

hot take: there are too many questions about cocktail names

too many questions about video games imo
tbf i guess many more people play them than drink obscure cocktails
for the mobile games i invariably answer 'candy crush'; this panned out once

Just submitted the draft questions for my second 1DS.

And got some feedback, enough to allow me to get very close to final form.

Counterpoint: Not enough

I know nothing about BB but see that you have a few testing slots left, would a complete novice be of any use as far as feedback goes?
― Antifa Lockhart (Leee), Thursday, 30 June 2022 19:16 (three years ago)
Sure, as long as you are nice about it!
― Build My Gallows Hi Hi Hi (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 30 June 2022 19:18 (three years ago)
Nice is a dealbreaker. (j/k, I'll sign up in a bit.)

I know there's at least one other Spelling Bee fan here, and the 1Ds on it is live.
