>Will: ABTUUVZ -BTUUV +0 0
#note VATU looks better than exchanging, I feel like I knew that during the game but still did the wrong thing. #strategysmall
>Jackson: CHNOTTU H8 COUTH +28 28
>Will: AADORTZ 12D AZOT. +34 34
>Jackson: FHIMNTU E9 FUT. +32 60
>Will: AADIORR D5 RADIO +12 46
#note Extremely uninspiring move but there's really not much better.
>Jackson: AHIMNPU C2 HUMAN +24 84
>Will: AEEKLRT E3 LEK +28 74
>Jackson: BIINOPU B3 NUB +21 105
>Will: AEIRTTW 11G A.WITTER +74 148
>Jackson: EIIOPSW 8F WI.OPIES +66 171
>Will: AEEJOOP M3 POOJA. +32 180
>Jackson: CEENRSX I7 C.X +40 211
>Will: ?BEEISS N10 B.IES +26 206
#note Quackle wants 10J BE or BEE but Jackson is certainly not going to open the board for me after those moves; I felt I had to do it myself. Then again, the EISS? leave is pretty great for hitting the COUTHS spot...
>Jackson: EEENRSV O6 NERVE +28 239
>Will: ??EFGQS 10J Qi +62 268
>Jackson: ADEEGLS N1 GLADE +23 262
>Will: ?EFGNSY 1L YE.G +39 307
#note I was getting all ready to slap down FoGY for 58 before GLADE; but YEGG scores just enough to play instead.
>Jackson: DEIINST 14H TIDINE.S +63 325
>Will: ?EFNRRS G7 R.F +28 335
#note Agonizing move - my thought process here was, if I play 15G REF and Jackson drew the ??GY hammer in the top left, I'm in deep trouble even if I bingo with a cheapie along row 2. Whereas if I play RIF instead, I keep my vowel, and I will either outrun ??GY plays with bingos on row 15, or outrun all but the heaviest of Jackson's non-bingo row 15 plays with a row 2 bingo if I can just get maybe one more vowel. Quackle likes the idea of 13A FERN, putting an E out in space that I can then bingo to - cool idea. Sim prefers REF and CP prefers FERN.
>Jackson: DGIINOY 15C YOGINI +39 364
#note Jackson correctly passes on DOGY to block the lane
>Will: ?AEENRS 2F cASERNE +63 398
#note Played this to prevent big overlaps starting at 1D.
>Jackson: ADELMOV 1G DAME +36 400
>Will: ALR D1 LAR +13 411
#note 12L ARIL is 3 better #endgamesmall
>Will: (LOV) +12 423
