>Evans_Clinchy: AEFILQR 8G QI +22 22
#note No, the short opening is not correct here. Not even close. FAQIR by a mile.
>Rik_Kennedy: GLRR 7H GRRL +9 9
>Evans_Clinchy: AEFIKLR 9C FLAKIER +86 108
#note (rewarded for idiocy)
>Rik_Kennedy: ABIOSST K5 OB.ASTIS +90 99
>Rik_Kennedy: ABIOSST -- -90 9

>Evans_Clinchy: DDELOSU 9M DUO +17 193
#note SUD# in the same spot is a touch better.
>Rik_Kennedy: ADIINOS E3 DIANOI.S +68 113
>Evans_Clinchy: DEEELSU C9 .UELED +20 213
#note Sims about even with ELUDED 3B - same score, same leave. This seemed like the less volatile choice.
>Rik_Kennedy: AAII 12A AA.II +12 125
#note Triple-triple: Opened. Take note.
>Evans_Clinchy: ?CEGOPS A8 GEOC.rPS +158 371
>Evans_Clinchy: ?CEGOPS -- -158 213
#note Sigh. First I saw COMPAGES# and decided that wasn't a word. It is, and it plays for 158. Then I thought of GEOCARPY# and decided maybe that meant GEOCARPS* was a thing too. It's not, so it plays for zero.
>Rik_Kennedy: AESZ D1 ZEAS +53 178
#note This crazy fucker loves to open triple-triples.
>Evans_Clinchy: ?CEGOPS A11 G.POS +24 237
#note Yeah, yeah, COMPAGES# still.
>Rik_Kennedy: AEHNV L1 HAVEN +32 210
#note STOP THAT

>Rik_Kennedy: EFNRY 14J FERNY +54 306
>Evans_Clinchy: GHLNRTY H13 .HY +27 356
#note I thought I was desperate to block the bottom row, but the sim says I'm overvaluing that. Taking the points is better, either with SYN 10E for 43 or THY F4 for 38 to shed an extra consonant.
>Rik_Kennedy: ?BEEPRT 11F BEsTR.PE +61 367
>Rik_Kennedy: ?BEEPRT -- -61 306
>Evans_Clinchy: CGLNRTW 11I WR.NG +9 365
#note He doesn't have a bingo here yet, but he will eventually if I don't block.
>Rik_Kennedy: ?BEEPRT 3A BRE.. +16 322
#note Oh good, one more triple-triple! Lunatic.
>Evans_Clinchy: CEELTTV B1 VE.T +14 379
#note Solid but imperfect block. Bingos this doesn't prevent: ABETMENT and ABUTMENT through the B, and a few nines through ON in line 5 - COMPONENT, PROTONATE, PROTONEMA, WANTONEST.
>Rik_Kennedy: ?EMOPTT 1L .EMP +33 355
#note Yep, this is best.
>Evans_Clinchy: ACELNTW 2L .WA +26 405
#note Low on time, missed CLAW/CLEW at F4.
>Rik_Kennedy: ?OTT 4G oTTO +13 368
#note Phew, what a crazy game. Relieved to escape this one and finish my first Worlds with a solid 17-14 record.
