>Frank: III -III +0 0
>W: AAAJLMS 8G JAM +24 24
#note Really wanted to try JAMAALS* and thought better of it. Maybe JAMALAS* might work better. That I was even thinking about this says a lot about my frame of mind after a pretty rough 30 games.
>Frank: ORTY 9F TORY +35 35
>W: AADEKLS 10E KAE +23 47
#note Figured KAE vs ARAK was a coin flip and it is. At no point did I think of J6 KAS, which Quackle likes, but I would never play (the S is decent on the post-KAE board, and incredibly good on the post-ARAK board).

#note Maybe GLADDEd is microscopically better.

>W: AEFIRRX C8 FIX.RE +34 212
#note FIXURE, 1N AX, or 12D AFIRE? I didn't fully appreciate AFIRE. FIXURE gets answered with 8A plays through the F or 12A plays with overlaps that score really well - it yields the highest scores of the three. AX and FIXURE have nearly equivalent bingo percentages, though bingos after AX hit a smidge harder because of the inclusion of the F. AFIRE is easily the most defensive option, and although it never bingos, it more reliably scores 40 points due to the X. I'm content with FIXURE.

>W: CDINNNU 11H UNIC.D +18 371
#note I came awfully close to doing E3 INN to avoid keeping two Ns with two more unseen. I liked that UNICED made it far more difficult to fish opening the lower right side of the board and used up the U with two more unseen, but INN blocks all the lines that are already open. Quackle's favorite of 4K TUNIC looks ill-advised.

>W: AEFGNRU H2 RU. +5 398
#note Bit of a brain fart here, failing to spot the obvious block. Just glad it didn't cost me the win.

#note 10L DEF + 8L ANGA work out 2 better.
