>Arie_Sinke: ABEELTU 8D BEAUT +20 20
#note Looks best; apparently my second best option is exchanging EU.
>Mark_Garrod: ADIIOPY E5 RER.JECT +118 118
>Mark_Garrod: ADIIOPY -- -118 0
>Arie_Sinke: ADEFLOR E5 FRE.LOAD +98 118
#note This was a very fortuitous turn of events for me.
>Mark_Garrod: CEEJRRT D4 JEE +27 27
>Arie_Sinke: GIIKORS F10 KI +34 152
#note Looks right.
>Mark_Garrod: EPRT 9G PERT +19 46
>Arie_Sinke: BGIORST 13B BOGS +27 179
#note A lot of options are close. I am less inclined to prefer BIOGS/BIGOS here, as I'm not really keen on opening up even a difficult to use opening. Hanging on to the S with BEFOG sims a bit back. I think this or GOBS is probably right.
>Mark_Garrod: DH 7E .DH +26 72
>Arie_Sinke: AEGINRT 10H TEARING +73 252
#note At this point I was somehow blind to the A hook to make AJEE - anything there like TANGIER is clearly better than this.
>Mark_Garrod: AIR D11 RA.I +19 91
>Arie_Sinke: AAEEIMP B10 AME.A +22 274
#note Didn't think of AMEBAE. My best option is to use AJEE again - I can do PEA up there and apparently AEIM is a reasonably bingo proned leave despite being vowel heavy. This likely suffers from setting up comebacks on the triple.
>Mark_Garrod: CFIMOST 15D CLOUT +41 132
>Mark_Garrod: CFIMOST -- -41 91
>Arie_Sinke: EFIIOPQ 9L QI +26 300
#note Looks fine.
>Mark_Garrod: CLOTU A6 CLOUT +23 114
>Arie_Sinke: EFINNOP 8M FOP +30 330
#note I had a rack of EFINNOP in round 3 at the South Lyon tournament in October of 2022. Somehow I remembered the rack. FOP looks like the play here.
>Mark_Garrod: EIRV N10 .IVER +18 132
>Arie_Sinke: EEIINNO 12L NE.I +16 346
#note This is okay but NIEVE in the same spot looks like a slight improvement - scores two more and the leaves are basically pretty comparable. The E is doing nothing to help me here.
>Mark_Garrod: W 13M W. +20 152
>Arie_Sinke: DEEILNO J9 ..ILED +11 357
#note This blocks a lot of bingos. Because the outcome of the game is not contingent on a single bingo, DIOLE(FIN) M3 for 26, which is better for equity, is probably a better play.
>Mark_Garrod: EMSU 15L MUSE +37 189
>Arie_Sinke: EHLNOOS 15D SHOON +34 391
#note Forgot that SHOOL was a word - but SHOON wins a sim anyhow because there are 3 Ns out and no Ls.
>Mark_Garrod: AGIV 3C VAGI +27 216
>Arie_Sinke: ?DELNYY F14 Y. +13 404
#note I guess I was trying to fish for something. Quackle doesn't think it's the right time for a 1 tile fish and wants me to take the points with DYE C5. I didn't want to burn the last E here and honestly think my play is probably okay.
>Mark_Garrod: AX 2E AX +53 269
>Arie_Sinke: ?DELNTY 1A TYNED +35 439
#note My one tile fish was totally unsuccessful. This play is probably best.
>Mark_Garrod: U L14 U. +4 273
>Arie_Sinke: ?CILNOZ N6 ZO. +32 471
#note ZOO wins a sim, likely because it blocks all the 7s beginning with a W at 6G. It does allow some sevens at 4F (SNOWcAT, SeNATOR etc.) 25% of the time, but unfortunately there is no way to block both spots.
>Mark_Garrod: ?ANRSTW 6G WARTS +22 295
>Arie_Sinke: ?CILNO H1 LOrIC. +24 495
#note I tried in vain to figure out how to double the C and didn't notice I could go out with INCLOSe/CLONISm at K1, which is far better than LOrICA.
>Mark_Garrod: ?N O5 Na +11 306
