>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: EEGIIMT 8G GIE +8 8
#note josh opened horizontally! I don't think I even noticed
>Jackson_Smylie: DEGINPU J6 PUD +18 18
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: EHIMTTV K5 VIM +24 32
>Jackson_Smylie: EGINRRZ I7 R.Z +29 47
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: CEFHRTT 6J ..TCH +20 52
>Jackson_Smylie: EGINRYY O5 GYNIE +43 90
#note completely missed EYRY, and it was not for a lack of trying... I also missed EYING, which I saw right after I hit my clock.
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: EFMNRTU N9 TURFMEN +80 132
#note why would I ever want an open board against josh
>Jackson_Smylie: EGLORWY 15K WRO.G +30 120
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: AAAEINO -AAAAE +0 132
#note -AAAOI keeping EN
>Jackson_Smylie: ?EEILUY 13L YU. +16 136
#note didn't think of ILEU(M) or 14L EY(E), which makes the board more bingo friendly. I didn't mind EEIL? as much with the C, G, R open, but it still doesn't bingo quite as much as EYE. EMU scores generally more, I average a point and a half less than yum. EYE looks good (also restricts his scoring opportunities by 3 or 4 points)
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: AEHINOR M3 ORA.HE +30 162
>Jackson_Smylie: ?EEILLN 3H NIELL.Ed +58 194
#note saw glenlike but missed LoNELIE(R), which is the play
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ABIJNNU H1 NI.JA +60 222
>Jackson_Smylie: DEFNRSS J2 F.D +15 209
#note wanna keep my Ss for NINJAS, possibly for a scoring play where I can still keep one. Q likes F(E)S for a way higher bingo % (60 vs. 47)
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: AABBENU L8 BABU +18 240
#note #questionable
>Jackson_Smylie: EKNORSS 6F KOS +30 239
#note thought about KOB to keep the powerful ninjas spot open, but my outscoring prospects aren't so bad, and if he does open for any reason I will have a good chance to bingo.
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ?AENOOO -AAIO +0 240
>Jackson_Smylie: CELNRRS F2 CLER. +17 256
#note no point in playing C(U)R(R) here, ELNRS isn't going many places I want to go on this board
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ?AENQSV 11K Q.A.E +28 268
#note Q(U)E(R)N is better maybe #questionable
>Jackson_Smylie: AEINORS N6 .O +11 267
#note hits with a surprising amount of the tiles. it seems that even OI/QI, tempting as it is to open a solid lane for myself, bingoes even less than just fishing the O because AENRS is an overrated leave
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ?INOOSV 4D VO. +12 280
#note even with the exact leave that Jackson had here, opening the 3x3 with OVONI(C) is the play. He could hit NOTARIES or NONARIES but most of the time I will be the one 3x3s if anything. In this particular instance, I would have lost the game most probably, but hey, the numbers don't lie. #couragelarge
>Jackson_Smylie: AEINRST 12E ANESTRI +69 336
#note bingo
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ?IINOOS 2B IONI. +14 294
#note 13H OI is probably the play despite Jackson trying his darnedest next turn to block everything. It's also important to block some X spots.
>Jackson_Smylie: ATX 13E TAX +39 375
#note I'm pretty sure this was my rack.
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ?AADOSW 11C DAW +26 320
#note I think a bunch of us analyzed this and decided (S)AWS H12 was the play. I still agree.
>Jackson_Smylie: ADILOPT A1 APOD +37 412
#note pOETESS, pETASOS, and pESETAS are the only bingoes he can have after D(EX) or L(EX), the plays quackle has with the best spread (apod wins 100% but with worse spread). his bingoes leave EE, AE, or OE in the pool, so I can hit OPIATED a good amount of the time off his bingoes and outrun them otherwise. I wouldn't be confident enough that there are no 10 row bingoes after LEX or anything, so APOD is at least a sure win.
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: ?AEOSST 10B fATSOES +70 390
#note went 39 seconds over, final score 390 to 412
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: (EEILT) +10 400
