>Joshua_Sokol: AEFIOTV H4 FOVEA +30 30
>Marlon_Hill: AEGNSTU 6H .UG +11 11
#note crazy there was no bingo in his rack here. He looked for a while.
>Joshua_Sokol: ABHIORT G8 BOTHRIA +68 98
#note This was really really bad. Not only did I not know if this took an S, but I also missed that Marlon just gave me a great spot for my bingo. I should quit, as the man himself would say. Luckily Marlon solved that dilemma by telling me I probably didn't even know that it didn't take an S...
>Marlon_Hill: AENRSTT I8 NATTERS +64 75
#note taking 68 points here instead of 64 would be standard.
>Joshua_Sokol: EEIINOP 12A PIONEE. +24 122
#note I see OP(H)I(T)E and decide against it because of the S hook, but that's similarly dangerous to all the letters I'm throwing out there with this play, and the leave is better, so I can see why others would prefer to play that. I think PIONEER makes more sense.
>Marlon_Hill: GHOT K3 GOTH +27 102
#note Luckily even after this play I didn't notice that I missed the H hook. That would have put me on tilt for sure.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ABDIYZ B10 ZA.DY +76 198
#note And just like that the game is basically over. I was apologetic, but that's not gonna buy Marlon a mockingbird.
>Marlon_Hill: EILORST L5 ESTRIOL +72 174
>Joshua_Sokol: ?BEIKOQ G3 QI +26 224
#note couldn't convince myself that BOOKIE was certainly a word, but this was better anyway. No need to open the 3x3 on someone that just played two baby bingos.
>Marlon_Hill: ILWY M10 WILY +27 201
>Joshua_Sokol: ?BEKNOV 4J B.OK +36 260
#note I now opt to take the cute spot.
>Marlon_Hill: DEGU F4 GUDE +17 218
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EENORV E7 OVERs.EN +72 332
#note unable to convince myself this turn that OVERMEN was valid, since I knew that OVERMAN was a verb.
>Marlon_Hill: CIP M1 PIC. +24 242
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AILLOU 8K U.IAL +15 347
#note unfortunately nowhere to play QUINALOL*, the most outrageous phony anyone has ever gotten away with against me. I'm taking anyone up on getting away with something more ridiculous than that. A12 PIAL is too many points to give up on here, so I should play that. URIAL doesn't really help me much besides rack balance, which I don't need at this point in the game. But this has an upside of appearing weak to my opponent, who said "NOW you have a bad rack"
>Marlon_Hill: DEFIX D3 FIXED +36 278
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AILMOU 1J LUM.IA +39 386
#note ALLODIUM was tempting, but I'm really only losing to a triple-triple with that big scoring spot next to FIXED open to outrun Marlon if he hits something from the L.
>Marlon_Hill: DNRW - +0 278
#note "Take that sh*t off the damn board! I ain't gettin' up for that!"
"It's a fucking word, Marlon! Look!"
*motions at the computer screen
"Dat better be NEW!"
"It is, I'm sorry!"
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EEJMNO A12 .OME +34 420
#note Just play on column C. Really wasn't focused at this point, this game was a joke
>Marlon_Hill: DNRW N6 DR.WN +23 301
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AEJNNS O10 SEJANt +67 487
>Marlon_Hill: AACERST C9 TAR.S +33 334
#note Marlon wasn't sure enough if it was CESAR or CAESAR I think. I saw ACETA for him and tried to hint him into playing it but he didn't remember it and wouldn't play it.
>Joshua_Sokol: N N1 .N +8 495
>Joshua_Sokol: (ACE) +10 505
