>sneakyofverb: ?MOOQRS 8D QORMa +50 50
#note it’s easy to make a quick decision in this situation and exchange. slow down, look further. had i gone with the former, i would’ve lost all future privileges of posting games.
>chill_my_nerve: EPZ F7 P.EZ +35 35
>sneakyofverb: AGLMORS I2 GLAMORS +78 128
#note for about a nanosecond, i thought GLAMOURS was the only correct spelling. silly american words.
>chill_my_nerve: IRTU D8 .UIRT +28 63
>sneakyofverb: CEEINNY 5H E.INENCY +80 208
#note was miffed LENIENCY didn't fit, then noticed the M. woo hoo.
>chill_my_nerve: DDIK O1 KIDD. +48 111
>chill_my_nerve: AFY (challenge) +5 116
#note pretty sure on the KIDDIE spelling, but not as confident on the Y-ending. worth the nickel.
>sneakyofverb: AALNNRT 4H R.TAN +23 231
#note took my time. didn't want to shed another R, but that shouldn't be too grave a concern. and i wanted to set myself up for the X i didn't have. (so maybe i should've opted for ALAN?)
>chill_my_nerve: AFY 3K FAY +27 143
>sneakyofverb: AHILNRU 6M UH +30 261
>chill_my_nerve: BGO 2L GOB. +24 167
>sneakyofverb: AABILNR 7M BAL +24 285
#note have you fallen asleep yet?
>chill_my_nerve: GIJS 13A JIGS +39 206
#note blocking my bingo. grrr.
>sneakyofverb: AEHINOR G8 .HO +32 317
#note aarrgh, totally whiffed on HIJRA (or HEJRA). MHO appears to be the next best option.
>chill_my_nerve: EW A13 .EW +39 245
>sneakyofverb: AAEINRV H10 AVENIR +42 359
#note thought about b10 VARIA just so i wouldn't provide all the new lanes. but the extra six points and the fact the board's already open enough swayed me back to AVENIR.
>chill_my_nerve: ?EOSTTV 12F OV.rTEST +70 315
>chill_my_nerve: ?EOSTTV -- -70 245
#note i challenged quickly because i didn’t like it as OVER-TEST. but as we walking up to the laptop, i went pale because i thought, dammit, it’s the superlative of OVERT. no, you idiot, it’s neither.
>sneakyofverb: ADELPUW 6H W.P +31 390
#note well, i've ignored this area for long enough. remember, kids, it's all about protection.
>chill_my_nerve: ?EOSTTV O7 .OVE +21 266
>sneakyofverb: ADEELUU 11H .ALUED +20 410
#note b10 AUDILE scores 27, but i didn't feel like giving anything big in that area. VALUE in the same spot as VALUED retains a consonant, but adding on the D prevents a 40-plus pointer with the F down from n10.
>chill_my_nerve: ?INSTTT 2C TaTTIN.S +62 328
>sneakyofverb: ADEEERU 1A RUEDA +32 442
#note RUEDA kills a potential F-bomb, while 1f EAU knocks out an easy X-play. but there are other decent spots to effortlessly use the X for around 40. and RUEDA looks cooler.
>chill_my_nerve: FX B12 F.X +44 372
>sneakyofverb: AEEELNS 14F AL.ENEES +62 504
#note was honestly considering 1g AE before realizing how embarrassing it would be had i missed this high-probability 8. (although 10f (ZOA)EA looks neat.)
>chill_my_nerve: ACEOOOT L8 COO.E +20 392
>sneakyofverb: III N5 ...I +11 515
#note I, I, I!
>chill_my_nerve: AOT 15M OAT +11 403
