Odd numbers or evens?

[teapot37]

He dug the bottom part of the hole first.

Okay wise guys thanks for the laugh. It's finally done. There are pros & cons to a church property committee meeting at 1:30 on a Monday.

Ken (AKA - STFU) was very good on the buzzer; unfortunately for my ears his clue selection wind-up was, "Can I get...please?"

What was Alex’s explanation for reversing J15?

What was Alex’s explanation for reversing J15?

Probably the fact that the war was officially ended by the Treaty of Ghent at the end of 1814, but news traveled slowly those days and the Battle of New Orleans was fought a couple months later.

Yeah, pinning problem as Alex mentioned the Treaty with the 1814 & 1815 parts between signed and ratified. I've added more to the explanation. The reversal was only fair to do.

I totally agree but just wondered what the official word was on it. Thanks for adding it.

Make sure to see 1990s $200 since it mentions J!

No BMS needed for Cuomo back then.

50% of Jeff Stewart in for this tourney and two more of his to go. His lack of apparent joy in playing sometimes makes Arthur Chu look like a class clown in comparison.

[Bamaman]

Funny he got J14 wrong.

Thanks for the reminder and I added an approximation of what Alex said. I guess Alex still thinks of Utah from a Canadian point of view as down there?

If Keri had bet everything and gotten FJ right, she would have finished with $23,800; compare that with Jeff's final total (keeping in mind it was a lock tournament).

Nice 10-spot of clues right in a row by Ben. I like his chances next week.

If another archivist enters two games before tomorrow morning watch the counter as it's 115 away from 395,000. Yeah, I know, it's more a reminder to myself.
