>Kim_Y: ?DEGRTT 8F GRiTTED +70 70
#note Whangarei Round 18
>Chris_Tallman: ?AEHJTT 7K HAJ +29 29
#note I debated between TAJ and JEHAD, and only then saw HAJ - but the sim prefers TAJ by a decent margin - guessing ETH? scores better, bingoes more or the same amount as ETT?, and the bingoes are higher scoring which makes up for the 6 fewer points and lack of an I hook (was thinking that might let my bingoes come down a bit more easily).
>Kim_Y: OWX 9K WOX +34 104
>Chris_Tallman: ?DEINTT 6E DIsTENT +71 100
#note A few bingoes down from the I score 74, but DISTENT is scoring-defensive enough it's comparable if not better.
>Kim_Y: ADEY 5C YEAD +25 129
>Chris_Tallman: GIIIORV D1 VOGI. +26 126
#note Considered VIG/HAJI (29) but decided getting rid of the extra vowel was worth the point sacfirice and opening the top triple.
>Kim_Y: EHOO 1A HOO.E +33 162
>Chris_Tallman: EIILPRZ N6 ZIP +48 174
#note Obvious play, also keeping ER for HOOVERED.
>Kim_Y: INS O7 SIN +36 198
>Chris_Tallman: AEILNRT H8 .NERTIAL +74 248
>Kim_Y: INRY 2B IR.NY +40 238
>Chris_Tallman: AEILNSU 12B INSULA.E +66 314
#note LUNARIES (82) is a bad miss - I'd repeatedly studied the high probabilty Collins 8's too. Looked at the R a bit but not long enough.
>Kim_Y: ACIMU 3F UMIAC +18 256
>Chris_Tallman: AOQRSUW 10D ROQU. +34 348
#note There aren't any good plays that keep the QU together - also, the lack of D's, N's, and T's in the bag make it deceptively hard to hit the spot through the I of INSULATE with a QUI- play. I decided to therefore just score with the Q now and block the best bingo lines, through the N and S of INSULATE and the E of INERTIAL.
>Kim_Y: DEEIORV J12 DEVI +26 282
#note Kim said I blocked OVERSIDE, meaning she had some interesting options - EVILDOER and OVERIDLE for 63, or HOOVERED/RYU for 51.

>Chris_Tallman: ACEEELP 1H .EEP +9 427
#note Last outside threat left, simming best.
