And Singaporeans who want to take part but can't be there can email me (Ricky P) your pick and arrange how to make payment.
If you don't know how to contact Ricky P, ask someone offline. If you don't know anyone who knows, I don't think you'll be doing the roto anyway ;p

Gee didn't know this blog was still alive. I'll consider sending a team in.

Blue has been replaced by Liz Fagerlund and some players' rating have changed after the Dallas WPC.
You need to redo the quintiles.

Meanwhile, Mohd Zafar leaving is being dealt with in an utterly bizarre way. 30 people got to play actual games with him and they should get full credit for whatever result they earned in working for that hour. Those who are deprived of a game later should get credit for a forfeit win as they would in any other tourney, otherwise they are harmed in the standings thru no fault of their own, and some of those players are well up on chart, i.e.: Grant and Webb already.

Joel,
if you are in world-scrabble mailing list, the development there brought up by shakir and stewart may explain a bit more why the organisers decided to make all games nongames instead
