NYC 2014
Hey! It's my 100th tournament and I won it! i was flashcarding threes on the train to NYC because I seriously haven't looked at words since before BAT in May. It caused some entertaining word knowledge errors, but mostly, I went in pretty apathetic about playing, which I guess has been helping me lately. I also got to see three theater pieces this weekend, which kept my mind off of the games a bit, and also kept me from gallivanting late into the night. It would've been nice to see a larger draw for a NYC tournament, and it probably won't run again without a significantly cheaper venue or a promise of better attendance. Sad.
