#note completely missing VI(E)WY and seeing it after spending 4 minutes on this turn and hitting the clock, knowing I was missing something. Quackle only thinks of this as a 4 to 5-point mistake, but it seems a lot worse to me, not numerically, but in terms of feeling confident in my playfinding ability.

#note this seemed to prevent a lot of really bad instaloss scenarios, and muddy the waters nicely. I still didn't feel confident in my winning chances. Needed something lucky to happen. Thought about fishing the W for AGI(T)ATED 13G which just gets blocked like all the time. Also considered the timing of GA(R)DAI L9 and it just didn't seem like that would work nearly often enough.

#note AC was such an amazing draw, since he can no longer have XENIC, XENIA. Thought this had to be the only win but C12 AA(!) also wins, insanely enough, since he can't reasonably block 5s on the B column that AA sets up.
