>Gary_P: ACHOP 8H POACH +32 32
>Steve: ?BEEGTY 9G BEY +28 28
#note Was looking for a place to land GYBE, but completely overlooked the fact that POACHY is good. Oh, and I also missed a bingo - mEG(A)BYTE.
>Gary_P: DEEIJNT K4 INJE.TED +122 154
#note The highest scoring play of the tournament.
>Steve: ?AEGNOT 10B TANGOEd +69 97
#note Wouldn't it have been nice to spot the 9-letter play of GANTELO(PE) here?

>Gary_P: FGI J10 FIG +31 185
>Steve: GINOQSY 8H .....ING +48 145
#note This is why I like to Quackle games, so I can see humongous mistakes like this one. QIGON(G)S for 72. Completely blindsided. POACHING just seemed like a no-brainer.
>Gary_P: RU 12H RU. +5 190
#note I thought this was a curious play.
>Steve: EHOQSWY L11 SHOWY +40 185
#note 11c YEOW only scores two less, and keeps the S. At least my play keeps the board open. Wide open.
>Gary_P: ILR E10 .IRL +10 200
>Steve: ?EEEKQR 15H REKE. +36 221
#note Q says to ditch the Q now by putting it at M7. Next is EKE at M12. I'm still having trouble, however, at seeing OK as a valid two.
>Gary_P: IT 14L .IT +12 212
>Steve: ?EEEOQV O13 VEE +25 246
>Gary_P: IX 7M XI +36 248
>Steve: ?MOOQTZ C9 Q.T +22 268
#note That spot at 6N looks juicy for the Z, especially with all the unseen A's. But ZOOM at 14f scores a hefty 41, and is best.
>Gary_P: NOO L4 NOO +21 269
>Steve: ?EFMNOZ N6 Z.. +32 300
#note Hard not to play something elsewhere and hope to draw one of those outstanding O's, but I need points. Using the blank here for ZA seems like a reach.
>Gary_P: ATV 7G VAT +23 292
#note The board is closing up.
>Steve: ?AEFMNO 14F FOAM +23 323
>Gary_P: DELPU 13B PUL.ED +32 324
>Steve: ?AEIINW D8 WI. +21 344
>Gary_P: ALMORRT 14A LAM +22 346
>Steve: ?ACEINU E2 eUCAINE +71 415
>Gary_P: ALRSSTU 2E .STRUALS +61 407
>Gary_P: ALRSSTU -- -61 346
>Steve: ADDORS 15A OD +21 436
#note Not sure what my other letter was here. Need better mechanics.
>Gary_P: ALRSSTU 9K .AS +20 366
#note LUSTRA scores 34; TASS 32. I wouldn't have been sure of either word.
>Steve: AADNRRS D13 .AR +10 446
>Gary_P: BLORSTU 4B BLO. +16 382
>Steve: ADEINRS 2B ARS.NIDE +70 516
>Steve: (ERSTU) +10 526
