4 wins for Jen Steadman now, who keeps improving her score every time. Maybe today she'll break the record? Today may be her hardest test though. From gathering other posts I've read, she has to face a top Scrabble player today, and there have been some dangerous Scrabblers in the past, so we shall see.

Join James for the recap later.

THEORBO

Not sure Jen should be accused of slipping as the score was lower, because that was a harder game.
I make it there were another two maxes that DC missed, as well as Giles's one, but one was when Jen missed GOSPEL,
so still 12 max game.

If Connie saw SURF she should have seen SURFIES for a max, or maybe the Australians/NZs haven't reached Barry yet?

Is Ray Tate this guy?

Certainly looks like it! Nice to see Damian relaxing his stance on people appearing for a second time

Isn't it happening more and more due to fewer good applicants? This is why I don't see a problem in you re-appearing Dan — but you do?

5 series isn't that long a gap plus he's seemingly travelling the world currently so it's likely he's too busy. This also taking into account that he may just not want to. Some apterites just choose to not go on.

Why?

They don't like exposure to the spotlight, or just can't be arsed.

I do want to appear again, but I'm very busy travelling at the moment and I'm about to start my final year of university in October, so it will have to wait a little while

Thought as much!

Well done Jen. I'm one of hose keen apterites who just prefer playing online - and watching CD on telly.
