>Lloyd_Mills: ACEEORT 8C OCREATE +74 74
#note OCREATE COCREATE! I see that instantly now :D
>Joshua_Sokol: EFIILST G4 FETI.LIS +63 63
#note I knew FELSITIC. Did not know FILISTER. Lloyd would have seen both instantly.
>Lloyd_Mills: GUV F10 GUV +20 94
>Joshua_Sokol: AANOSTZ D6 ZA.ATONS +88 151
#note rewarded for what
>Lloyd_Mills: IW 6B WI. +23 117
>Joshua_Sokol: ABEIINV H1 VIBE +36 187

>Lloyd_Mills: FGOR 10J FROG +29 180
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EEEIOU K10 .OUE +8 223
#note barely worth playing it seems.
>Lloyd_Mills: EP C8 .PE +17 197
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ADEEIY B10 YEA +28 251
#note I played this because he was fishy. I should be able to score well next turn if I cannot bingo, in the spot I created. Sometimes, inference-based playing works.
>Lloyd_Mills: ?EGNRST N8 RESTiNG +79 276
>Joshua_Sokol: ?DEHIKR O3 sHIRKED +113 364
>Lloyd_Mills: EHLM A12 HELM +48 324
>Joshua_Sokol: CEOPTUW N2 COUPE +36 400
#note Given the vowel/consonant ratio here, I knew it was relatively close between COUP and COUPE. I wanted to be able to defend the rest of the board after my play, but 10 points seemed like too many to give up. I outrun most things after COUPE, I guess.
>Lloyd_Mills: IQ M7 QI +24 348
#note Scored as 25. I believe Lloyd immediately noticed his mistake of not playing 5 spots down.
>Joshua_Sokol: AINRRTW L9 W.RN +20 420
#note It was hard to decide between WORN and WORT here. I chose WORN because there were more N's in the pool than T's, but a simluation still prefers WORT, citing an impressive 4% bingo increase over WORN. The T goes kess well with the other tiles in the pool.
>Lloyd_Mills: DJO 3K DOJ.. +24 372
>Joshua_Sokol: ADEILRT H10 DETAIL +32 452
#note On the flip side, a simulation tells me it's better to keep the T here than to keep the R this time. But this was definitely the right idea, blocking the M finally, the ROUES lane, and the RESTINGS* lane... Little did I know of the asterisk on the word RESTINGS*
>Lloyd_Mills: ABDN J12 BAND +16 388
>Joshua_Sokol: AILMORS 15L MISO +35 487
>Joshua_Sokol: AILMORS -- -35 452
#note And to make sure this was indeed a game vs. Lloyd Mills, I had to phony. TRIGNESS, STINGERS and TRESSING. I can never get that right. What am I going to do with myself? This is the correct endgame if RESTINGS* stays, at least...
>Lloyd_Mills: ANOT 15D TONA. +6 394
