>Joshua_Sokol: DERSUUY H8 USURY +24 24
#note exch UY or UUY or RYU are also options. I played this very quickly. #questionable
>Maddy_Kamen: CHINORS I3 CRONISH +81 81
#note A tile popped onto the board somehow while I was drawing, so it was probably from the bag, though I have never had that happen. After the brief director call, she plays this. I wonder if my karma is bad for not telling Maddy that she failed to draw the last tile last game. But maybe it's karma for not challenging PARIETIC*
All I have to do is accept that I don't know and this is a word. I know CORNISH* CRONISH was a possible thing, I've solved this alphagram before. I then thought CRONYISH* was a thing. That fucked me up. She also happened to block my bingo. Ugh.
>Joshua_Sokol: ADEELOT - +0 24
>Maddy_Kamen: FILM 12D FILM. +26 107
>Joshua_Sokol: ADEELOT J9 OE +10 34
#note ughs
11D OLE is the play. #findingmedium

>Maddy_Kamen: OOP 15A POO +24 213
>Joshua_Sokol: ABGIOQV H1 QI +38 208
#note spacing on (N)IQAB 8K, totally tunnelled after drawing the Q again. Definitely tilted. BOVI(D) 8A is also better than this.

>Maddy_Kamen: ?ABDENT 14I BArTEND +79 325
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EEINST O7 INvESTE. +77 330
#note unbelievable. I totally missed QUIETENS even after looking for a word up there on my own time. Spent 6 minutes looking for a 3x3. L3 ThEINES is also there for 85. Fuck.
>Maddy_Kamen: IKR E3 KIR +22 347
>Joshua_Sokol: AGIRUVZ L12 RI.Z +46 376
#note another miss, this time of M9 GAUZI(E)R. That might be better since my leave is so terrible after RITZ. She will have tempo but I think I can play a 6 or a 5 the turn after to go out the next turn? #questionable
>Maddy_Kamen: LOX D2 LOX +44 391
>Joshua_Sokol: AEGTUUV N6 VAU +18 394
#note VAGUE not only didn't appear to win all that often in the endgame, but also failed to block the tons of 7s she might have on column N
N6 UTE wins the sim as it blocks but also allows me to score with the V next turn. I don't think that works, though. I have to complicate and score more than 9.
>Maddy_Kamen: AEEINRT M9 TRIEN. +20 411
#note playing more tiles with RETAIN L2 just wins on the spot. This is also good, but she needs to draw an out with AE, which isn't always going to happen. She was trying to block the M spot and drew the M.
>Joshua_Sokol: AAEGITU L1 AGITA +19 413
>Maddy_Kamen: AEM 2L .AME +14 425
>Maddy_Kamen: (UE) +4 429
#note despite losing a turn, I still had many opportunities to win this game. So far the poorest performance of this tournament. Too much in my own head here.
