>Deen_Hergott: EFLP 8G PELF +18 18
>Joshua_Sokol: ABFNOQW -BOWFQ +0 0
#note I chickened out of WA(F)F here, which is pretty awful. Quackle prefers I play through here with I7 F(L)OW, which gives me NIQAB if I draw an I and my spot isn't blocked. I could alternatively play F(L)OWN. I decided exchanging was better than playing 7F BOW. It seemed like I wasn't going to be able to shed my Q very often next turn, so I decided to exchange. It seems better to only keep an N though.
>Deen_Hergott: III -III +0 18
>Joshua_Sokol: ANORTYY G6 TY.Y +20 20
#note this is definitely correct considering the exchange.
>Deen_Hergott: ACEENRT H1 CENTRE +29 47
#note this play baffled me, but TYPY blocked all of his bingos and he kept an A. He should rather play RECANE, CREATE or TRANCE here or any of their anagrams but this isn't a huge mistake.
>Joshua_Sokol: AANORUW 2B UNAWAR. +24 44
>Deen_Hergott: AX 1A AX +36 83
>Joshua_Sokol: DELOOPU F5 DUO +16 60
#note This is where I thought I was going to lose if I didn't create as many opportunities for myself as possible. OU(T)PLOD was missed, that's probably my play. I played this to open the bottom left. UDO 3C is 20 but does not open anything.
>Deen_Hergott: AEEINRT 1H .REATINE +83 166
>Joshua_Sokol: BELLOPQ 1D BOP +26 86
#note same situation as earlier. The Q is going nowhere, so do I exchange it or limp along with it? I figured that I must have been wrong the first time, so best to keep it this time. At least I can hit QI for 28 if I draw an I. BOP, POL and exch QPBOL are in dead heat in a sim, but keeping BEL edges everything else out. Two Q's, two agonizing turns, two wrong decisions
>Deen_Hergott: HMO 2J MHO +31 197
>Joshua_Sokol: EEFLLQR E7 FELLER +27 113
>Deen_Hergott: ?GILNOV O1 .VOLvING +86 283
#note Deen thought this may have been a mistake in hindsight. I thought that it was totally fine compared to K8 sOLVING for 7 fewer. 12E (R)OVINGLy was his other option, for only 74, but much more defensive.
>Joshua_Sokol: EGIIOQW N6 QI +64 177
#note light at the end of the tunnel?
>Deen_Hergott: DIK M7 KID +27 310
>Joshua_Sokol: EGIIMOW D11 MEOW +26 203
#note meow
should have done MOWE(R) for just as many considering SSSS is unseen and I need a 3x3 to win probably. Sim likes d11 WOG followed by j6 WI(F)E. WI(F)E was my only shot at winning at this point
>Deen_Hergott: AADEIRS I6 SA.ARIED +67 377
>Joshua_Sokol: AEGIIJO C13 JOE +43 246
#note but hey I drew the J! Cash it!
hoped he drew 7 consonants and I can 3x3 next turn through the E
>Deen_Hergott: ANOV H12 NOVA +30 407
>Joshua_Sokol: AGGIIIS 15A GI.S +29 275
#note 8A AGGI(E)
I just shut down at this point
>Deen_Hergott: CDSTU K4 DUCTS +26 433
>Joshua_Sokol: AEEGIIZ J8 .IE +14 289
#note going for BEGAZIN(G)
backup plan (A)GATIZES
if I go out and catch him I can potentially win after BEGAZING
come on Dean make the worst play ever, draw the H and let me play out for 143 and somehow win
>Deen_Hergott: ?HINRST A8 TRaSHIN. +95 528
#note oh
>Joshua_Sokol: AAEGIUZ J12 GAZE +42 331
