#note When Matt played HEEDING, I heard "Z" on the blank designation and never actually looked at this slip. I guess I was a little rankled at this final game being a blowout and wasn't fully focused.

The worst part is (and this is so unbelievably bad, seriously just revoke my membership now), is that I had already added up my score by the time he held and challenged, and I forgot to remove them after my blunder. When I eventually confirmed the score later in the game he just agreed, as he was playing fast to try and catch the exciting conclusion of the Joel-Nigel match.

#note Not a fun conclusion to another mediocre Nationals. 16-15 +85, the only consolation is that my rating only took a minor hit since I played a pretty decent field.

I think I used to be better, at least in terms of finding non-obvious bingos. Need to review hard and stop being lackadaisy over the board. Or I can keep coasting and be 1900 forever. That sounds pretty good too.
