#note I'm posting this game because it's a perfect example of the results of Quackle helping me with my attitude in impossible situations. Also, here's a little context: This is the second time I played Scott on this night and during our first game, I was STARVING. I know he heard my stomach growling, but he's too much of a gentleman to say anything. Another club player got me something to eat. She actually came back during our first game, but I'm a notoriously slow eater. So, I'm happily snacking on a McDonald's Southern chicken sandwich (with cheese :D) in this game. Also, Scott played me and the other player at the same time. COOL!
>Tasha: AIIMORT E5 TRI.OMA +36 36
#note Oh NO...I missed IMITATOR for 90. TRITOMA is the best non-bingo play. Scott holds my play, but doesn't challenge.
>Scott_G: EOW F10 OWE +19 95
>Tasha: HIIJO D11 JO +31 67
#note I forgot to write my rack down here, but I remember I had 10 I's and an H.
>Scott_G: EOTV 13B VETO +24 119
>Tasha: EFHIIIO -FIIIO +0 67
>Scott_G: CDENO C3 ENCOD. +22 141
>Tasha: BEEHMQU B10 HUM.EE +44 111
#note "Cool play!" says Scott. I hesitated to leave BQ, but I wanted points.

>Scott_G: AEGINT 15E EATING +36 302
#note Scott shook his head after I played ADZ. So I'm thinking I might have blocked a bingo. I forgot to ask him what his last tile was, but he obviously didn't have a blank or S. I can scratch off an extra N too. I'm thinking he had an R and I blocked INGRATE. Or maybe he was just shaking his head out of annoyance at me scoring 47 points...
>Tasha: BCGIIPW J10 BIGWI. +21 243
#note "Cool play," says Scott.
>Scott_G: ?EINORY K4 jOINERY +75 377
#note Annoying, thinks Tasha.
>Tasha: ABCOPRT H1 BOP +28 271
#note I thought I had CARTOP on column L, but not quite. You see, I wanted to play another cute six.
>Scott_G: KR B1 .RK +21 398
>Tasha: AACEERT 8K .ATER +18 289
#note In several ways, this is perhaps my most annoying rack in the game, but I actually made the right play. The idea is to open things up. Downright fishing is pointless on this board.
>Scott_G: EINV N5 VIN. +9 407
>Tasha: ACDELLU 1H .ULLACED +92 381
>Tasha: ACDELLU -- -92 289
#note Oh why not? I have nothing to lose. ....but my dignity...
>Scott_G: ADNRSS L10 SAND +18 425
>Tasha: ACDELLU G12 DUE. +23 312
#note Best :D
>Scott_G: RS 11H SR. +3 428
>Scott_G: (ACLL) +12 440
#note I was perfectly calm throughout the entire game. Being distracted by my chicken sandwich (with cheese :D) helped too. Maybe the game would have been different had I not missed IMITATOR, but I like the fact that I tried to make the best of what I had. ...also....Scott would go on to win both his simultaneous games. :)
