Not that I begrudge her them, but how did Serita get 31 points? 2 each=16, plus 5 for the set and 5 for being first makes 26. Whece the extra 5? A newcomer's bonus, perhaps?

The answer to that, Klaas, is that I am very bad at Math. So I guess I have to call that one "Bank error in your favor, collect $10".
