>Joshua_Sokol: GIINTUU -IUU +0 0
>Joey_Mallick: AELNPWY 8D WANLY +30 30
>Joshua_Sokol: AGIINPT F2 PAINTI.G +69 69
#note oops, PATINI(N)G doesn't take an S, probably that even though the hook might benefit me more than Joey and the I at 5E is far more dangerous than the N.
>Joey_Mallick: EEENPRX G1 REX +39 69
>Joshua_Sokol: BEEGLOS 1G .EG +12 81
#note I had really no clue what to do here as the game was basically tied, but I had D8 (W)EBLOG, which seems like the correct idea.
>Joey_Mallick: AEEHNOP E4 HOE +23 92
>Joshua_Sokol: BCELOST D1 BLOC +38 119
>Joey_Mallick: AAACENP 7C AA +8 100
#note So awkward looking, but nothing much else is available.
>Joshua_Sokol: EINRSST 10D INSERTS +75 194
#note he's fishing so I have a feeling that INS(ET)TERS 6B might be worth it, however he's likely to have something beginning in a vowel so playing under the Y in WANLY.
>Joey_Mallick: ACEINPW H1 .WE +24 124
>Joshua_Sokol: DEEFIIM I3 DEFI +24 218
#note since bingos from 4H were possible, perhaps likely later on, and this had nice setup potential for my F, I think I might be prone to playing DIME in the same spot if I could have this position on the board again. The M is such a better tile than the F, even in this position, but hm.
>Joey_Mallick: AACINOP H10 .ACINO +33 157
>Joshua_Sokol: EFIILMO J6 FOIL. +29 247
#note drew another F though so wtvs
>Joey_Mallick: ADHPRRV 1A DRA. +21 178
>Joshua_Sokol: EIJMOTT 14F JI. +26 273
#note 12B TOTEMI(C) is very much the right play here to maximize the value of my scoring tile while turning over for the blanks and starting to exhaust the bottom of the board. I had a lot of trouble with TOTEMIC words this tourney... Quackle also prefers MOJ(O) 3A and (E)EJIT 4I to this. I wasn't too happy with it myself, kind of remember being confused here.
>Joey_Mallick: ?DHLPRV 13G H.P +24 202
>Joshua_Sokol: EIMOTTU 12H .UTIE +18 291
#note U(L)TIMO 9I would be really cool if it didn't create huge scoring/bingo opportunities for Joey. It doesn't take an S but Joey probably knows this.
>Joey_Mallick: ?DELRVV 4H R.VoLVED +92 294
>Joshua_Sokol: ?MNOQTU O1 QUO. +42 333
>Joey_Mallick: AADINOT M3 A.OID +22 316
#note Tough spot here. I should probably do something more fishy since catching up with non-bingos is hard with this rack.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?GMMNTZ 6L T.Z +32 365
>Joey_Mallick: AEENOTU 15C AUTO +14 330
>Joshua_Sokol: ?GMMNSS K11 M.GS +14 379
#note I could fish the M here, I could do a lot of things. They all seem to win around the same. I lose only to (D)ARKENER and stuff like that
>Joey_Mallick: BEEENOY 11B EYNE +20 350
#note Emptying the bag is unideal, but all I could hope for was a shot a blank bingo in two spots. I wanted to keep the B for the BAA hook.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AEMNRS 12B MANE +30 409
#note I was very fortunate spread was not as huge of a factor for me as it should have been. I missed oARSMEN, was extremely close to playing ARMSMEN* and talked myself out of DURAMENS, so that I could secure the win. I suppose I could have gotten away with losing a turn here so long as I saw the winning bingo(s) next turn.
>Joey_Mallick: BEKORTU 13A BUR +27 377
#note KOR for a few more. Still not quite used to EMO.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?RS 8M SRi +16 425
#note only 99% on 7I S(O)re(D)
>Joshua_Sokol: (EKOT) +16 441 |
