>Jackson: AAEIMTV H7 AMATIVE +82 82
#note figured the M is pretty good for reoverlaps, so the higher scoring option won't give too much back in the end. the 80 point option is a slighly less risky version, it doesn't get hit with as many occasional 50 point overlaps. I also realized that this could get challenged given how long I thought about where to place it, which made me favour the H7 placement.
>Linda_Oliva: ABKLOTU - +0 0
>Jackson: AKOOSUU G7 AUK +31 113
#note before NWL23 I woulda considered OTAKU to bait the S hook, but now the S is valid
>Linda_Oliva: EORY F8 YORE +24 24
>Jackson: DIOORSU E11 DUO +14 127
#note didnt see VODOU for 18, mostly considered ODOUR for 20 and DUO. ODOUR is the aggressive play, setting up the S but also making the D column more accessible. I felt ODOUR might be optimal but I didn't want to swing any risk, DUO sims a point behind VODOU and 3 behind ODOUR, I am happy with the choice given game context
>Linda_Oliva: EJNO D9 JEON +30 54
>Jackson: EEIORSY I9 YE +26 153
#note starting to consider actually follow the EE-EO algorithm:
1 - spend 2 minutes deliberating EE vs. EO
2 - come up with reasonable choice, favouring one over the other
3 - choose the other one, which will sim best

OVER- options notwithstanding, EEIRS bingoes more and scores more on average.

>Linda_Oliva: DGU 8L D.UG +24 108
>Jackson: FIIMNPW 5H WIFIN. +26 324
#note felt some MP synergy with N7. WIMPING averages about the same in a sim, sims a couple better
>Linda_Oliva: OPR J2 PRO. +15 123
>Jackson: HILMPTW N7 L.MP +29 353
#note actually never considered HUMP for 6 more, but HITW has enough synergy to where LUMP sims better. I average almost 10 more

#note probably ALVINE for 44 for spread

#note Linda regretted this after playing it, giving me ZEN/ZA, but this N drop is actually her second best N drop, behind G3 NE. I was going to play (E)D next turn anyways, so there was no way for her to stop the ZA bomb
>Jackson: ADOTXZ A14 ZA +51 580
#note this is not the best endgame, and this is why g3 NE was the best N drop. 7 points better is to play DAT(E), ZA, then OX H1.
