UVSC 2017 Year End Report (authored by BJ) This was a good year for us, and though we haven't grown as much as we eventually would like to, we did gain two new regular members in Ellen and Margaret, and had several visitors for a total of 17 total different players. We played many more games than the previous year, holding sessions on 48 out of 52 Monday nights (our most ever), and our final session of the year was our 161st overall. A total of 396 official games[1] were recorded (191 TWL, 205 CSW). 1178 total bingos were played: 63 were CSW-only, 52 were phony, 435 were 8-letter bingos, and just two were 9-letter bingos. Player statistics for the year are attached below[2] for the nine players who played at least ten games in 2017. For high plays, our records are not rigorous and thus some of the entries are left blank, especially for players who have not played many games. [1] There were also 18 "off-the-record" games recorded. These are typically instructional games with new players, or other special circumstances in which the official rules were not adhered to. [2] Player statistics are computed without separating lexicons, even though that skews things somewhat. Full statistics, broken out by lexicon, will be posted eventually. :)
