mreye Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 I played yesterday. I won 4 out of 6 games. The two losses I lost on the final question and 2 of the wins I won on the final question. We had the location up to 19th twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted January 13, 2004 Author Share Posted January 13, 2004 NTN update.... 8500 points from 14th place, and about 30K from 10th. Slowly but surely moving up the charts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 last week a 14,160 game and I was so blase I didnt even stick around to see where I finished nationally 3rd at our location, maybe 100,000 ahead of 4th and about 200,00 behind 2nd - but 2nd and 1st are recent transfers to our bar from another location been playing not so much lately - saving a little money on eating out as well as dieting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 2K4, if you had p[layed from 1-1:30 pm today Eastern time, guess who you would have seen finish first nationally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had played? Me? On a side note I did play at lunch on Friday before heading out to Soxfest, and I couldn't believe how low the scores were. I take it many people don't play at lunch? I had a score of about 11,000 and finished in the top 100 nationally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 depends on the day - I finished first with a 13,400 something today last week had a 14,200 something and only made top ten some days just busier than others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went at about 12:30 and there was one other person playing in the whole place, even though their was a pretty decent lunch crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwsox Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 today at lunch - 14,999 and I even knew that last question, just hit the "4" button by mistake and repunched "5" immediately and got only 999... and finished 2nd nationally instead of tied for first - damn damn damn so close and yet so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwsox Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 only good thing about a 14,999 is no one at the bar will top me for the month - in January I got topped for the first time in 16 months, had 2nd and 3rd (and 6 out of the top 10 scores) with two 14000+ games but someone edged me by a 100 or so and being the 3rd they will have to look at that 14,999 all month!

mreye Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 I finally got to play again. The wife was out of town all weekend. I played Saturday. Had a good time. Competition was tough at the bar. I won the last game at midnight and headed home a little drunk. I swear, when I win the Powerball, I'm getting that at home and putting TVs in every room.

cwsox Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 my one year anniversary of playing for points - I have like 860000 for one year - not too shabby - I am going on an NTN binge the next few months - a few people in our bar need to be put in their place NTN wise - wish me luck!

I got out and played a little the other night. And I finally got to try a Blue Moon. Good stuff! Didn't get to play too much, but I might have moved into 14th at my home location. It will be close.

Didn't get to play too much, but I might have moved into 14th at my home location. It will be close. 14th place now officially. 120,000 points . 133,500 is 13th and after that 11th and 12th are pretty close to him. Then 10th is just over 150,000 so I have my work cut out for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 we don't even have it in town anymore, but we do a weekly pub quiz that is awesome, I'll start posting the questions. I expect big things from CW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted March 8, 2004 Author Share Posted March 8, 2004 Getting closer... 6000 points from 13th and only about 9000 from 11th. Been playing a lot lately, hopefully it keeps up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 1,005,000 thereabouts just saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 8, 2004 Author Share Posted April 8, 2004 I did move up to 11th last week. Only 12,200 from the Top 10.... Wish I could play all of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 I remember 11th place - that was so long ago but I can remember it... back when I was a peon rather than a star... (hell, one Tuesday night from 6:30-10:30 will get you those 12,000 points... if you always get the P+ points as some of us do!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides with getting up to catch a train at 5:02 in the morning, I am in bed by 10pm nightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
