#note IXI(A) M3 was a fascinating idea, going for massive J plays on the L and N columns respectively. However, it gives up a lot of control. I still have a chance of shutting the board down after this, though perhaps I am too optimistic about that aspect. My plan here is to play (R)AJ 14A next. If a bingo using the E in EDIBLE, I should be able to outrun and defend.

>JoshuaSokol: ADIJTTU O4 JUTT.D +22 339
#note no OUT left for OUTJUTTED. Now I change my mind and happily block the E for ever and ever.
>ChristopherSykes: ANORRRS O11 SONAR +27 269
>JoshuaSokol: AAGHILL 14J HALAL. +34 373
#note should outrun all but the worst of things. He has one turn to score over 100 points or play from L1 or something

>JoshuaSokol: BEFGIOU B10 FO. +31 404
#note it's probably best to play (R)UB H13. Not only does it block NERDY but also, well, you'll see!
>ChristopherSykes: ACDEIWY H11 .E.D +6 341
#note awesome, but it actually doesn't seem to be best. The sequences are extremely complicated, but I think Y(A)W loses by 43 with best play, and this loses by 45 with best play.
>JoshuaSokol: BEEGIU 14G E. +4 408
#note best is (N)U F13. You would think the idea is threatening to fully block with BI or GI next turn, but it's not. If Chris decides to cash the Y, I stick him with the C by blocking C(A)W. If he plays C(A)W, I don't actually block NERDY, I stick him with the I with M6 (A)B(B)E, and he can't start with 11A (PO)I, since I just go out with GI(V)E F4. Coolest endgame I've seen in a really long time. Should be a puzzle. I think I play (N)U even though I'm never actually blocking NERDY, since the threat is stronger than the execution.
