6'ish strikes in a row


Bowled six strikes in a row today, if you count as a strike when a last pin was knocked over by the pin setter (which I do - your not the boss of me United States Bowling Congress! Additionally, I am writing my Senator to get this rule amended.). A measly few more strikes and 254 is surpassed.

Yet another case of precipitation related bowling score reduction. If I seen this once, I've seen it a thousand times.

A 190 built on spares.

A 190, but made by hitting all the spares. This is no way to get to 254, unfortunately, as my 227 proved. Best possible spares still left me 27 pins short that time. And according to Carl Friedrich Gauss the odds of getting 254 are now up to 1 in 5000'ish. The normal distribution is setting me up for a quite improbable 254 game. This is going to make my 254 all the more sweet.

Another day of progress


Based on my recent scores I have determined my probability of getting a 254 is something like 1 in 3000. These are the approximate odds that an employed person, 16 or older, in Vermont, is a parking lot attendant (Book of Odds). So I've got that going for me.

And welcome to my Spam List, Sam.

Bit of a struggle today

Only the most recent data here. Must always be looking to the future.

Upon a review of the New Year Resolution completion handbook, it is permissible to continue working on a one year goal for more than one year. Who knew. So I will soldier on here until a score >254 is completed. Plus I know everyone would have missed the updates.

And for those of you not in the Idaho Falls Bowl-ero on December 23 in the early afternoon, I bowled a sweet 227 and was a mere two pins from exceeding 254. Oh, the humanity.
