Hey everyone,
Thanks for your support. I've played Scrabble competitively for 6 years now, and this is the best I've done at any major tournament. It's my 2nd Nationals tournament, and I've been to 4 Victorian Championships, the International Sydney Masters once, and also twice I represented Australia at the World Youth Scrabble Championship (2006 and 2007). It's a very stressful and hard-working hobby, and there's a lot of practice that goes into learning words and strategy, and I'm very lucky that my friends and family support me with it and respect how fiercely competitive I am with this game. Other people think I'm crazy...but so what? It's all a bit of fun, and I have a ball!
Victorian Championship is in June - we'll see how I go this time around - I've never gotten higher than 15th there before!
Cheers everyone!!
