#player1 Mack Mack
#player2 Josh Josh
>Mack: AAINNOQ H8 QI +22 22
#note Yes I did this. I couldn't help it. #trollinglarge
>Josh: IIMOPUW G9 PIU +15 15
#note I5 IMPI? This opening is so bad for me! OPIUM? Ahhhh Mack hits me with my own medicine. This is best.
>Mack: AANNOTX H11 TAXON +41 63
#note When I played this Josh asked (clearly assuming I did) whether I had the X with QI and couldn't stop laughing when I said I didn't.
>Josh: FIMNORW F10 MOWN +28 43
>Mack: ?AENNRV E9 VAR +25 88
>Josh: ADDFIRU I12 DIF +26 69
#note or DUD #questionable
>Mack: ?ELNNPV -LNPV +0 88
#note I'm not entirely sure what I drew to ENN?, but it was definitely 3 consonants including the V and exchanging down to EN? seemed quite obvious.
>Josh: ADEORRU 12D RA. +19 88
>Mack: ?EEEHNT J6 ETHENEs +66 154
>Josh: DEORSUV 6D OVERUS.D +64 152
>Mack: ACIPTUU 8J .APTIC +48 202
>Josh: FILORRT L8 .ROFIT +22 174
>Mack: EEMNOUU M3 UNMEE. +18 220
#note I actually missed K1 MEOUED, but I think it's too reckless. M10 MENO I saw but couldn't stomach EUU. As hideous as UNMEEET looks, it actually sims best.
>Josh: BCIILNR D3 BIC.RN +22 196
#note I didn't like LIBRI because the CN didn't seem to go well with the C in HAPTIC, but I guess I'm also not completely stuck having to use that C. I didn't like CIB(O)L because it's easy enough to dump an S for 30+ and outrun me. Still, that might be the way. C12 CRIB is also interesting, going all in on using the C next turn. This just doesn't hit enough. #strategysmall
>Mack: AJKLOTU F2 JOUL. +28 248
>Josh: AAEILOS E5 A.E +24 220
#note or AI(M) 5K for increase potential, for 8 fewer. Hm.
>Mack: AAEEKST O5 TEA.AKES +65 313
>Josh: AILOOSY N5 OY +32 252
>Mack: DEGIITW 4I WITI.G +27 340
#note Didn't like C10 WIDGET now that EW is good. I thought about just C12 DIG, and in hindsight I think it's actually best - it's a huge equity hit but makes it virtually impossible for Josh to bingo either now or later as I can just close any new openings he makes in cat-and-mouse fashion. And DIG puts me up 80, which should be enough to avoid being outscored without a bingo in basically all circumstances. Quackle still likes WITING, but I'm gonna call this a #strategymedium since leaving Josh an easy way to tie the game with a 7 on column C or an 8 on row 15 seems plainly unnecessary here.
>Josh: AADILOS C9 ALODIAS +76 328
>Josh: AADILOS -- -76 252
#note wasn't sure about this being phony but I felt I needed this to win? #knowledgelarge
>Mack: BDEEELS C12 BLED +23 363
#note This was kind of a spread play, baiting him to play DADO since then I have a good chance of hitting the D with my SEE leave in that pool especially knowing I have a 4/10 chance of drawing the blank (as Josh didn't hold it).
>Josh: AADILOS C7 AID +13 265
>Mack: EEGGHSZ 15A ZE. +39 402
#note Since he can't have SOLONETZ, I did this over ZEIN to avoid ZORILLAS as I know he already kept ALOS with AID...
>Josh: ?ALLORS B2 pALLORS +73 338
#note And he would've had ZORiLLAS!
>Mack: EGGHNSY N11 YEGGS +27 429
#note Correct
>Josh: O 2F .O +9 347
>Josh: (HN) +10 357
