212 & 1099 - game lost!

This thrilling game came 8 days before the Championship

I played 2 bingos:

LAt(E)RALs for 74

REQU(I)RED - a tripple-tripple for 212 (!!!)

... and I lost.

The game finished 492:607

This is only my second game with a combined score of over 1000 points.

This time it's 1099

21 days to go and the board is on fire

5 bingos in that game

all of them 8-letter words

mine - ETOURDIE and MUDHOLES

Rafal's- ARBORIST, NIOBATES and EGOITIES

1019

How do you call Scrabble games with a combined score of more than 1000 points? Millennia?



If so than this is my first ever millennium. It happened today in a game I played with my greatest rival in fight for the title of the Polish English Scrabble Champion - Rafal.

555

101 days before the Championships the Good Fortune struck again. I was playing a Scrabble game on http://www.isc.ro/ and then this happened.

.

After exchanging 2 tiles on the first move, I played 5 high scoring moves in a row:

(O)NERIEST for 77

QI for 64

TOURNEY(S) for 76

(E)NTAILED for 70

UPSIdeS for 70

ZIN for 44 and AFORE for 43 saw me finish the game on move 14.

Final score: 555:378 for me.

.

Can you get luckier than that?

I could have, had I not missed bingo #5 on my rack ...

MIAOUIN(G) for 78 on move 9 :)
