The Tel Aviv Scrabble® Club

There were 23 of us last week. Welcome, all!

Standings: In Aardvark, only four shifts. The absent Ma’or was the biggest climber (!), up 3 spots. There were six shifts in Madoqau. Jack shot up four spots after a great week. There were no shifts in Zyzzya.

As the season nears its end (only 4 weeks to go!), the top four spots in each division are crucial for playoff qualification. The bottom two in Madoqua and Aardvark are also crucial, facing relegation.

Scores: No records broken, and not a single 500+! There was one 1400+ triple (Omri), one 1300+ (Gila B.), and six 1200+ (Phyllis, Josh, David, Maureen, Barbara, Naomi). Not impressed at all!
