>Scott_Appel: ITW 8G WIT +12 12
#note 2013 Nationals, round 15.
>Charles_Reinke: ?ILLNPT H5 aNT.PILL +60 60
>Scott_Appel: BEIMORS 5E BIR.MOSE +94 106
>Charles_Reinke: AAAHITU 4K AHA +24 84
>Scott_Appel: HNU J8 HUN +18 124
>Charles_Reinke: AIKOSTU 11J KOI +25 109
#note I feel like this play commits me to bingoing. I didn't see 3H OUTASK, which catches me up the old-fashioned way. I didn't know LIKUTA; had I known that word, that would have been my play.
>Scott_Appel: DELOO L7 DOOL.E +16 140
>Charles_Reinke: AERSTUY 3I YURTA +37 146
#note As I entered this rack into Quackle, I immediately saw ESTUARY. It plays at F7.
>Scott_Appel: AEGINO E5 .EGONIA +20 160
>Charles_Reinke: ADEQSTZ F2 QAD. +34 180
>Scott_Appel: ABO D7 ABO +20 180
#note Good play by Scott to set up some bingo lanes.
>Charles_Reinke: EFIMSTX G1 FIX +49 229
#note 6H NIXE for 60 was hard to pass up; looking back, I should have done that. There are plenty of E's in the bag; no need to get attached to mine.
>Scott_Appel: ES H1 ES +33 213
>Charles_Reinke: DEEMPST C2 TEMPED +33 262
>Scott_Appel: EIILNRS C9 INLIERS +70 283

>Scott_Appel: OVW 14B V.OW +20 303
>Charles_Reinke: AEFINRS F10 FA +28 308
#note Should have played a five-letter play in the same spot. I didn't realize how much more they scored. There is no point fishing on this board.
>Scott_Appel: GJ 12B J.G +22 325
>Charles_Reinke: EEGINRS 15C .EEING +32 340
#note Quackle wants me to fish with 4B EM, but on this turn I commit to simply trying to outscore him.
>Scott_Appel: ACDE D1 CADE +33 358
>Charles_Reinke: CERRSTZ 13J ZEST +34 374
#note I wasn't even thinking about the possibility of ZESTY when I played this. CREST is probably better, leaving the possibility of 8L ORZO and not giving back so many potential bingos.
>Scott_Appel: ?NORTUY N7 cOUNTRY +78 436
#note Underscored by one. Given what Scott has, I was going to lose even if I play CREST. That thought made me feel better for a while, then I felt worse again because I realized that I'm a dirty rationalizing rationalizer.
>Scott_Appel: (ACRRUV) +22 458
#note Final score recorded as 457-374.
