>Kaia: CELOV 8D CLOVE +26 26
>Carl: ENORTTX D8 .ORTEX +30 30
#note This is close choice between CONTEXT, CORTEX and EXTORT (F5). After I chose this, I decided that EXTORT was better, but Quackle disagrees, preferring CONTEXT D8. CORTEX is 3 points back followed closely by EXTORT. (-3)
>Kaia: NO C12 NO +24 50
>Carl: ENTTTTY I6 TENTY +21 51
#note NETTLY E4 wins the sim. (-2)
>Kaia: GI B13 GI +17 67
>Carl: ABCEITT 15B TABETIC +96 147
>Kaia: EZ 10D .EZ +32 99
>Carl: FNORUUW E4 WOFU. +22 169
#note UW count: 2. I'm counting this one double because there are two Us.
>Kaia: DEIKLO J2 KELOID +30 129
>Carl: AINOPRU D2 PIANO +31 200
>Kaia: ?ABEORT J9 AEROBaT +69 198
>Carl: ANNQRRU 13J .URQA +32 232
#note Big mistake. TRANQ 11D is way better. If not that, then QUARK 2F. I'm not sure how I could have missed either of those. I remember that Kaia was playing pretty fast, so maybe I got flustered. (-21)
>Kaia: ?ADHLLO N8 HALLO.eD +76 274
>Carl: AEIMNNR O4 INARM +45 277
#note Another mistake. REMAIN scores more, plus Es are cheap. (-7)
>Kaia: EIV 15L VI.E +36 310
>Carl: EGINNPW 3H WE.PING +28 305
#note Wrong again. WEEPING H7 (which I didn't see) is better. (-3) If you want to beat me at Scrabble, just play fast. That's all you need to do.
>Kaia: AJS L1 AJ.S +24 334
#note Moves like this testify to how fast Kaia was playing. If she had thought for a moment, she would have played JAW H1, which she noticed as soon as she hit her clock.
>Carl: ADEINRS H1 DA.N +27 332
#note DIWAN or DEWAR win the sim. I'm not sure why, however. (-6)
>Kaia: GMSU 1K G.UMS +24 358
>Carl: EEFIRSU K8 FERE +27 359
#note This looks pretty hopeless, and perhaps it is. This at least blocks some of Kaia's scoring options, particularly YEH K5.
>Kaia: ADEHISY 11D .HAE +35 393
>Carl: IRSU O12 IS +23 382
>Kaia: DISY G7 I.Y +14 407
>Carl: RU 2B UR. +10 392
>Carl: (DS) +6 398
