well u saw the word plate was hopin for a cup but did a better showin

anyway had the nat'l youth scrabble championships on saturday was hopin for a better result but got a plate champ haiz...we could have had it in the bag la.....

anyway 1st round we played dunman sec. and they have nvr taken part before so it was kinda like bullying themhaha beat this girl 400+ points happy haha biggest win for me ever had 3 bingoes....then

2nd round we faced Yishun town and guess what they were all sore but can't blame them after beating this girl; 400+ but they had like a bad problem she said things like"why are you so talkative......" when i was trying to be friendly and when i said chill its a fun game she said only to you in the most sacarstic manner....

then the fate deciding 3rd round..........went against Marsiling and i had fought this team before won them easily but this time it was much tougher me and this other joel guy(won him last yr by 100+ points) were having a very locked game and finished last so on the way Calvin had won.....Ibrahim lost......Gabriel lost(by 14 arghhhhh) then me and jian wen were playing the deciders jian wen was winning and i was winning(my oppo. put like 2 bingos b4 that but managed to catch up) then trouble struck in the dying minutes he put another bingo REFINES i thought sure dead for sure then i put the word ZANG(which turned out to be unacceptable) and there was no challengeso it was the dying minutes and Joel thought he nded a 8 point move although he only nded 5 as andrew told him spoiling my winning chances but thankfully he was too much in a fluster to realise then he put the word CUBA since i had nothing to lose i challenge and yes there was no such word so he took it back and after that i completed my tiles and YES I WON BY 16 CLOSE SHAVE CLOSEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED and at that time it was 2-2 Jian wen had the decider and he had a bingo on his rack but time ran out andthe game was ovr(btw this team became eventual champs) so the final score was 2-3 with a +60 spread

4th round went against northland and won by 300+ and the poor guy's nose was bleeding half way la haha lol

5th round went against shuqun and the guy i played was good had excellent board vision but he nds to work on his word list though won by only +56

oh wells if its ovr its ovr.............
