#player2 Kenji Kenji
>Alec: AILMNOR 8D MARLIN +22 22
#note 8D OILMAN is best; it has no hooks, and R > O. I didn't consider putting the M anywhere other than a DLS. #findingmedium
>Kenji: EFIMRRT E7 M.FTIR +22 22
#note Warning: this is the beginning of day 4, where I play like garbage all day. This game is pretty bad. The next few games are much worse. I'd be lying if I said I even saw the MARLINE hook. I don't know if that makes FERMI a better play or not, but the fact that I didn't even consider this in game is alarming.
>Alec: DGIOPRY 12C PO.RIDGY +84 106
>Kenji: EEJNRSU C10 JU.E +26 48
>Alec: ACDEKQT 7H QAT +27 133
>Kenji: ?ENORSU K5 RESOUNd +87 135
#note UNSwORE is significantly better, both in terms of just a good play and in terms of my plan vs. Alec.
>Alec: CDEEKVZ H12 .ECK +33 166
>Kenji: ENORSSX 8K .XERS +60 195
>Alec: ADEPUVZ 14H .UZ +34 200
>Kenji: AENOOSS D8 .OO +20 215
>Alec: ADEGIPV L2 VAPED +27 227
#note PAVED may be better because its underlaps score less.
>Kenji: AEENNSS O1 SANENES. +77 292
#note No Kenji, if you think about this for more than five seconds, it's o8, not o1. You're going to have to expend more resources to block next turn with this line.
>Alec: ABEEGIO N1 OBIA +26 253
#note Quackle likes N6 BORAGE, but there's no way I play that, because it blocks row 10 and columns M and N, the three best bingo lanes.
>Kenji: EHLTUVW N6 HU.L +30 322
#note HURTLE is better than this by a long shot. HURT is probably better than HURL as well, as the T just has no home here. Another fucking awful play.
>Alec: CEEGITY 10M TYE +33 286
#note Quackle heavily favors 13J ETIC. I suppose it reduces Kenji's scoring potential by blocking 15J plays making ZA, and 10N YE is likely to stay open. #tacticsmedium
>Kenji: EGLNTVW -IIIIVWW +0 322
#note I don't know how you can keep the W for OWT and then miss NEWT. This isn't a terrible exchange other than that, but... yeah. I'm playing like shit. It's not as bad as it looks, but it's not good, either. Even WERT is better than this, as it blocks the R and scores 25, but somehow I only saw VERT.
>Alec: ACEGIOO 15J AGIO +17 303
>Kenji: ?ADFLOR J5 OF. +32 354
#note I thought about this for a while, between AFT/OFT/LOFT as well as IF/FE and went with OFT. Yes, sometimes I get absolutely screwed by this, but I have a huge range advantage, I'm not even necessarily screwed if he hits it, and spread still means something.
>Alec: CEEHOTW F2 WOTCHE. +35 338
#note Scored as 34.
>Kenji: ?ADGILR 3C GyR.IDAL +72 426
>Alec: AAEEELT H1 LA.E +18 356
#note The best plays fish for 15A ANTILEAK! Quackle picks H3 DEE to block plays at H1 like BID and VID. #visionlarge
>Kenji: BIINTVW 5B VINI. +20 446
>Alec: ADEEINT O10 .NDITE +27 383
>Kenji: BTW M13 TW. +12 458
#note I was pretty cognizant even at this point that I didn't play this game very well, but it's hard to lose when you draw both blanks and the 4 's' tiles.
>Alec: AE B4 A.E +8 391
#note 4D EAT. #endgamesmall (-5)
>Alec: (B) +6 397
