Chompy's Recidivist 2010 G Luton League/Scrabble thread

[TightEnd]

Might pop down for Scrabble-age 10pm ish. Save me a spot.

[Dingdell]

I'll be donating tonight - but late as usual - sure am looking forward to a roasting by the scrabble king....

As a scrabble player, I assume you know the definition of "roasting."

this is ding we're talking about - she probably invented it

FML - that was seriously out of context people! And anyway - wouldn't there have to be 2 Chompys - so to speak?

[Chompy]

LOLZ, bring your scrabble set with if you have one Tighty, it's gonna be a scrabble hotbed tonight. Four leaguers min present, plus MDD wants a go too. As long as we use his OED. Which he paid £35 for.

[Xpressman]

So many leaguers present , its got to a must be there tonight  !!

[GMan]

In it!

Just caught up with thread. WD to all who have cashed in last week and

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY to Little Red  xx

Just caught up,and nice result Chelle

Thought you`d win, as you clearly have a lot of experience of dealing with Willies at close quarters

The MAS out in force tonight, to put Plumsy`s dreams of Fantasy binkage to bed 

I dunno about dealing with a lot of Willies .... I've certainly had to deal with a couple of dickheads on the other hand 

[Lucky]

well done thomas for sat result, looks like that binkage may have secured 3rd spot in the fantasy, to celebrate this ive edited my original team and entered a surprise 2nd rubdown team over on the fantasy 2 thread - get those lists in!

When Mr Prew realises that Alan (un)Lucky McBink is actually in The Rock Steady Crew - he might choose to add a further 7 pts (4pts & 3pts for 50+ runners) to my total, for his 7th place on Friday night, just gone.        

I wasn't planning on playing this week until Friday - but if points are at stake I could be open to offers.  Would you like to buy me in Luther?

With 4 final tables  in my last 5 events at The G (finishing mainly just out of the points and money in 6th, 10th, 7th & 9th), I'm in reasonable form but due a decent result.

7 for me so far in June Tighty. May or may not be any more this month. Will let you know if it changes.

[Xpressman]

10 for me this month

Last night was one of those nights where playing at Luton is special


38 runners in the 30+20+10 and a veritable horde of leaguers present. Many concentrating on the "game within the game" of fantasy league points and rubdowns and, for Dingdell only, rub-ups.

Cutting to the chase, as the weary warriors emerged blinking into the cool dawn at 5am, with the birdsong cascading through the Luton landscape we had Chompy finishing runner up to Michael Bolton ahead of Boerwar in 3rd, myself in 4th, saver points for G-Man in 6th, and non points scoring finals for Rockstar and jonnyplum. That final was like a who's-who of this thread. With almost as many words too.

The result of all this was Chompy's 12 points taking our Venetian flip flopped follower of febrile fashion Mr Nirvana Henderson into a TIE for the £200 third place in the fantasy league with jonnyplum with two nights to go

Their respective teams are

‘Jonny’s Plums’ (D.Johnson)
Dave Johnson
Tom Myland 
Dean Morris   
George Michael   
Ian Bradley

'A Glass Half Full' (G.Henderson)
Glenn Henderson   
Adrian Gotch   
Graham Wheldon   
Gavin Kan
Tony Kendall

The actual result was a five way chop and to be fair to Chompy, looking ever more like Hannibal Lecter without the mask and with social skills to match, he did his best to engineer the win for Henderson but was comprehensively outplayed Heads Up. Unsurprisingly really as he had spent the previous four hours perfecting his one move, the all in shove from anywhere with anything with the portentous words of MDD no doubt ringing inside his shaved cranium. "Most of the time they can't call" and indeed most of the time they didn't, until they did, when he binked.

As I said at the start, great banter last night. I might be tempted to turn up more. Great value at £1m in FL2 if I do. Get those teams in! 17 so far

Also get your June totals in!

Finally an apology, to Dingdell. I am sorry if the banter went too far last night. I promosie it won't happen again until next time.

My three favourite Ding-isms of last night

1. "Can I have that Chicken salad thing please?

Valet "What chicken thing?

"The Salmon fillet please"


2. "Tighty, who came up with the idea that Ice can cool things?"

3. "Ooh, what was the name of that film, Flight of the somethings, you know the one where the little things fly and look like they are wearing dinner suits?"

Edna, Claw and myself try to get into the mindset....we bluff dwell

"Got it" cries Dingdell "Penguins!"


Good times.

Scriptwriters slave for years to come up with that sort of quality. Congrats to many winners and birfday celebrators
