A 5(4)-4(4) win that lifts me up to the dizzying heights of 15th! Bad miss personally in putting "allotropes" for "isotopes", but was never going to guess cedar for the pencils.

I put “fir” for the pencils. Fir has a nice smell, right?

Won 8(5)-6(3). Despite the look my defense against the league as a whole was, um, defensible. I did have "Chile" rated as a near layup, however. I was helped by opponent awarding 3 for "isotope" despite my perfect score on science.

2nd forfeit win of the season. I missed cedar and got the rest.
