>Josh_Sokol: EGIJRVW H4 JIVER +46 46
>Arie_Sinke: ?ACILLO 8H .OCAILLe +80 80
#note Best bingo.
>Josh_Sokol: EGNRVWW I7 W.W +26 72
>Arie_Sinke: EORRSTY 10I STROYER +74 154
#note Looks best, more defensive than ROYSTER for the same score.
>Josh_Sokol: EGNRTUV 5E UNR.VET +40 112
>Arie_Sinke: AEINOST F4 E.ATIONS +62 216
#note Looks best; SONATINE allows more overlaps.
>Josh_Sokol: EGHNNOR 6J HONG +31 143
#note there are few spots where my G hate really costs me. This I think might be one of those spots. I should play HON and leave the O column harder to block. Quackle agrees with HONG but I disagree with myself and with Quackle. Try to find someone more insecure, I'll wait.
>Arie_Sinke: AAIIMNT N2 ANIMI +29 245
#note ANIMI may suffer from allowing too many scoring non-bingo ovelaps - AMNIA E7 for 28 and AMIA E8 for 24 win the sim by a bit. I liked ANIMI for taking out the blank e, which is a huge spot for eights, but I suppose that will naturally get blocked in the near future anyhow.
>Josh_Sokol: EGKLNOU M2 KEG +29 172
#note how valuable is the recursion of SKEG here? I never saw RUNKLE, honestly forgot it was a word, but that might be find to try to make a play like KEG next turn if needed, though I might not get the opportunity. Quackle prefers this surprisingly, so I can't say this was a mistake. Well, I can, but I did that last turn, that was my only lifeline.
>Arie_Sinke: AABGLTU 8A TABUL. +27 272
#note I missed two substantially better plays here - ABLAUT E7 for 30 (which is a lot more defensive than TABULI) and RATBAG O10 for 30. Josh's last play created a huge spot for SKEG which I can't obstruct profitably, so I have to keep scoring and hope that he doesn't bingo.
>Josh_Sokol: LMNOSUU K8 .U.UM +14 186
#note actually wasn't sure this took an S at the time I played it, but probably would have played it if it came down to it.
>Arie_Sinke: AAGIOXZ 7B ZAX +45 317
#note Scores and obstructs some of the lines that I boldy opened a turn ago.
>Josh_Sokol: CDFLNOS C3 CONF.. +26 212
>Arie_Sinke: ADEGIOY L1 YOD +22 339
#note This is probably excessive; I'm afraid of SKEG and want to get rid of the spot. There's now another spot on the board for sevens ending in S (AURUMS) and this gives up a lot of equity. DAIMYO 12H for 28 looks like the play.
>Josh_Sokol: DEHLPRS 1G SPHER. +42 254
#note I mean sure, PERD(Y) keeps very nicely in comparison, but I'm down over 100. Have to score as much as possible here right?
>Arie_Sinke: ?AEGIST A8 .AnGIEST +77 416
#note YOD worked out well for me. InGESTA 13G looks like a slightly better play.
>Josh_Sokol: ABDELOQ 12H BLA.ED +28 282
#note shrug
>Arie_Sinke: EEIIIOP G9 POI +19 435
#note Probably a bit bette to play POISE 11C and ditch an extra vowel. I have I's so I'm not afraid of the Q.
>Josh_Sokol: AADEFOQ B13 FOE +23 305
#note look, I got a pre-endgame right. I know, it was the most inconsequential one...
>Arie_Sinke: DEEEIIR B6 I..R +24 459
#note I cost myself a lot of spread here - I thought Josh had an I, so I didn't realize I could stick him with the Q. 11A GIE is the play.
>Josh_Sokol: AADNQT C11 QAT +36 341
>Arie_Sinke: DEEEI H12 .IDE +21 480
>Josh_Sokol: ADN 13L DAN +17 358
>Josh_Sokol: (EE) +4 362
#note quackle thinks I played exceptionally, but I still think HONG was a game-losing mistake
