The Resident Appreciation Day festivities I attended today proved to be of a much wider scope than I expected. That it was held at a different apartment complex should have been my first clue.

I have finally broken the 1600 barrier of the online Scrabble ELO score. Over the course of a couple years of playing and the compilation of more victories than defeats, I have edged up now above to a score of 1603. What exactly is ELO?
