#note UNHAIR is a little better. Nice and open, which is good.

#note I thought it was time to get a tiny bit desperate, opening a triple-triple in a beneficial spot for me (SC- words are possible). Sim prefers MUSIC J6, which sets up a safer bingo line. Interesting choice -- it's really unlikely to backfire unless Alyssa has an S.
>Alyssa_Faria: ABW K4 BAW. +31 245
>Evans_Clinchy: INOOORS 2A .OO +10 189
#note Poo. That's what I think of drawing OOO on a three-tile draw. Sim likes OOT C3 a little better, but this one captured my emotional state better. (Also, minor detail, I missed OOT.)
>Alyssa_Faria: ADOT O1 O.TAD +27 272
>Evans_Clinchy: INORSST G8 .ISTRONS +62 251
#note Or ARSONIST, but I figured the volatility of dangling the S out there might help. Maybe she pulled something terrible on the four-tile draw and has to trade? I dunno.
>Alyssa_Faria: DEITV 15C DIVE.T +33 305
>Evans_Clinchy: EEINPUZ N4 ZEP +34 285
#note This sims better than the plays on the bottom half of the board that gum up lines for eights... no thanks, SEIZE, UPSIZE, etc.
>Alyssa_Faria: ENQRS D7 Q.ERNS +30 335
>Evans_Clinchy: EEHINRU 14A HUE +15 300
#note I got a little obsessed with unloading the U here. YEH 3A scores a ton more than my play... probably worth it. It's worth noting that I could win this game by outrunning... but I'd probably need to draw the X and J and score well with both.
>Alyssa_Faria: JO F13 JO. +25 360
>Evans_Clinchy: EIILNOR A12 EL.I +24 324
#note FILO J1 sims better... interesting. My thinking was "I need to score more than 14 to make sure bingoing is enough to win even if she has a giant X play." I should have thought "maybe I can just block the giant X play."
>Alyssa_Faria: AADEITW I7 ..ATED +8 368
#note Yeah... the blank was in the bag the whole time. Little fucker.
>Evans_Clinchy: IMNORVX C1 V.X +26 350
#note Missed a few things. -6
