>Greg: EKRTW H8 TWERK +34 34
>Alec: ADIOOTX 10D DOXI. +29 29
#note I correctly chickened out of OXIDATOR*. I missed G12 OXO, which unlike DOXIE has a balanced leave. (-3)
>Greg: IP 11E PI +25 59
>Alec: AEILORT D3 TAILORE. +70 99
>Greg: HLLU C2 HULL +22 81
>Alec: AEETTTZ B1 ZETA +42 141
>Greg: DEINR 12H .INDER +22 103
>Alec: DEEEHTT A4 TEETHED +91 232
>Greg: CNR 7C C.RN +9 112

>Alec: AACEPRY 1A C.AR +56 316
>Greg: AFG 13A FAG +25 174
>Alec: AAEMOPY A13 .AY +27 343
#note I wanted to mellow the hotspot at 14B without giving Greg an easy lane on row 15. But AGO doesn't take a back S, which I hadn't realized yet. 14B YOMP is best, scoring 44. (-10)
>Greg: BO 14A .BO +30 204
>Alec: AEMNOPU K8 UPEN. +25 368
#note Quackle likes E5 PORE. It keeps a balanced leave as well as the NA for CZARINAS. However, I wanted to get rid of the U, and I also liked that UPEND blocked the lane from 8H-8O. I also didn't see PORE. (-1)
>Greg: NOOOUUV -OOOUU +0 204
#note Greg told me he had the VN and was fishing for CZAREVNA.
>Alec: AAMNOOS B8 OMA +21 389
#note Fishing for CZARINAS.
>Greg: GGJNQV -GGJQ +0 204
#note If I remember correctly, Greg told me he drew JQ after the previous exchange.
>Alec: AIINOSS 1A ....INAS +57 446
#note I hit my fish!
>Greg: AEIINOV M10 VI.ION +18 222
#note So did Greg, one turn too late.
>Alec: EEIOOSU 6D .OUIE +13 459
#note Quackle prefers either exchanging most of my vowels or playing LOOIE. The only reason I can think of is the Q, but that cannot explain the entire difference in valuation.
>Greg: ?AEGNSU L2 GUiNEAS +69 291
#note This plays at 15C for 80.
>Alec: BEGLMOS 5C ..MBO +35 494
#note Trying to bait Greg into a Q-stick if he plays JUSTeR 8J. I hadn't even noticed the other Q spot at 4K. LIMBS is best, with the same idea but saving 15K LONGE. (-8)
>Greg: ?JOQRT 3I ROQ.eT +30 321
#note K4 QaT is best. (-1)
>Alec: EGLS 15C GELS +12 506
>Alec: (J) +16 522
