GRECO!5 Week 15: 3/6 to 3/10

[Wayoshi]

This playing will presumably cover 0141-45L in production order, but there are no guarantees.

There are two spoiled games (highlight to see): Most Expen$ive, It's in the Bag

The PATTERN was drawn randomly in Discord with my bot, with the result public to see for everyone. The DIAMOND (four non-diagonal squares next to the center) will be the PATTERN for this playing.

Good luck!

*I am making an assumption when saying this that should be a safe one. If I am wrong, I will have to cancel this week at the very end. There are two spoiled lineups coming up: EITHER 0145L/0161L, and 0165L for sure. Based on the games for the first of these lineups, it REALLY should be 0161L. The 0160s are going to be cancelled anyways because there's 8 spoilers on the week already when including some extra info on 0162-64L taping day, so ideally it is 0161L, there's 14(!) spoiled games, and that week is wiped anyways, with next week being clean. Please proceed as if 0145L is unspoiled (we should know early on in the week as soon as one of those games shows before Friday, there's up to 4 games that could reasonably show).

Every... 1+ prizer... must be played...

Overall an annoying set of not fully due games on the non-quickies.

[Wayoshi]

I never was going to think of them specifically slotting OA for today due to the sound effects "lady". Who knows if it's actually a lady pressing the button back there every time now? Yet, here we are with OA showing on 2 weeks again after it has taken a couple prolonged breaks previously this season.

I was expecting Cover today, but they went with 3 quickies I guess due to all the extra stuff going on within Cliff and the showcases. But uh, they didn't really play due quickies besides the spoiled one... so a lot of the cards are looking rough this week.

Grocery over H-L? Money again? Why, I dare say, why?

[Wayoshi]

Besides a repeat Flip, we finally got a big collection of due games, leading to some respectable scores in the end- the top half of scorers had multiple GRECOs, 10 of 12 got at least a GRECO or PATTERN. Flerb hung onto a win just barely as the top 4 all scored 1.5x on the SUPER SPOT.

Notable skips this week: H-L (I bet it's on Monday now that we know what that show is...), Side, OWP, Hole. To a minor extent Temptation & L7 as well.

This will do it for GRECO for two weeks: NCAA short week next week, then 12 spoiled games the following week. I'll be back with a thread for the 0170s on the 24th!

Wow, Tris really put the pressure on landing 3 GRECOs and the pattern on Friday but I was lucky to hang on to my two day lead. The First bonus was what saved me in the matchup.

Happy to hold the title for the next two weeks with the skipped games!
