Wojtek Reloaded

Former Polish champion Wojtek has gone to Milton Keynes for this weekend lead by an impulse decision and it paid off. 

He won Division B by winning 12 out of 15 games with a spread of +528.
Wojtek's new ABSP ranking is 156 which is higher than that of Rafal who is currently at 148.

This could mean the Polish Championship 2011 could get really hot with two of my opponents having both won titles on English ground. 
Im really looking forward to that...

My goal in this championship is a silver medal. 
Rafal seems to be out of reach for me at this moment...

Cardbox Reloaded












I'm back to Zyzzyva cardboxing ... again.
I started all anew by adding 8 letter words in probability order.
So far I have 3500 of the most probable 8's which is tantamount to 2382 quiz questions. I also revived my Excel file with a 'live' database link to Anagrams.db. It enables me to keep up-to-date on scheduled questions and the sizes of the cardboxes.
