Lucky season for me: In my 28-person rundle, I'm in 6th place despite ranking 24th in Total Match Points, because I also have the fewest Correct Answers Allowed.

Yeah and me both, bro, although I see that you are still slightly above the purple line.

I *think* I managed to stay barely above relegation unless I actually forfeit on Monday.Good luck, forks!

could go either way for me

Yeah, I saw but didn’t want to say.

I knew who it was but put "Henry Beecher Stowe." Then, later in the day, but before I submitted, I was reading a book that mentioned Henry Ward Beecher. I stuck to my morals and submitted the wrong answer. Then won anyway because my opponent defended catastrophically badly. Karma!

It took me a second to think if that but it was kind of overdetermined that I would get it right

I answered "Beecher" but if you'd asked me for a first name, I would've said "Lyman" (Henry and Harriet's father).

Yesterday I was in 3rd place and thought for a moment I might get to participate in the LL championship?? But then I lost 6(5)-9(6), and now I'm in 5th. Theoretically, I could still make it, but it seems unlikely.

Pushed down the rundle by the katabatic winds.

Good one.

I missed that one as well, but managed to win.

I've guaranteed a winning record while also having a shot at ending in the top 10, although my next opponent has very intimidating numbers.

I knew beecher because he's buried in our nearby cemetery and I've visited his grave on a few occasions!

I had a similar reason.

I used to live across the street from a church with a statue of him out in front.

And then I also had a friend who was related: his mother’s maiden name was Harriet Beecher.

But I still had to think for a second.
Any word on 1DS yet?

i put my first solo one in and it feels strong enough that I've already written half the questions in anticipation
― think “Gypsy-Pixie” and misspelled. (We are a white family.) (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 12 September 2021 18:42 (three years ago) link
Looks like we made it, forks.
― What Does Blecch Mean to Me? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 14 September 2021 13:15 (three years ago) link
I mean we didnt' get relegated, no idea about the 1DS.
yeah, whew. as bad as i could play and not get knocked out! That said, the #3 guy in my rundle had fewer TCA, so...

I had something similar.

In my case it was the number 4 guy.

Although, I may have been the same guy.

Had a good season, but man, my opponents really rose to the occasion against me this time

Just voted in the Very Best Wrong Answer poll, but my heart wasn't in it.

I posted my worst TCA ever, though we're talking about 81 vs. 82, huzzah!

It's still a month away but there's a crossword 1DS that looks interesting.
― Leee Tigre (Leee), Saturday, 25 September 2021 18:47 (three years ago) link
Some good ones coming this week if I am not mistaken.

Maybe not. So about that Clash 1DS…

lol i got every question right and am still in 237th place
― na (NA), Friday, 15 October 2021 20:24 (two years ago) link
Yes. I missed one and I am tied with you, in exactly the same place. Seems like there were maybe two dozen champions.
― Spiral Scratchiti (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 October 2021 21:23 (two years ago) link
The little thingie tells me that with better moneying I would have been in 82nd place!

2022 MLs are out, about two weeks for the 1DS. Starting to get that feeling.
― Double Chocula (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 15 October 2021 22:52 (two years ago) link
I'm annoyed at myself for not doing better in the Po-mo 1DS, especially for just slightly getting the title of the Eco novel wrong.
― Leee Tigre (Leee), Friday, 15 October 2021 23:22 (two years ago) link
Actually he said in the announcement that the 1ds schedule will be out next week.

i guess i thought i would be the first person they contacted. likely with a bouquet of roses.

i placed third in my adaptations bracket, feel like i could've done better if i slowed down a little
