>Noah_Goldstein: OOW 8F WOO +12 12
>Samuel_Kaplan: AACFHNS 7E FAH +27 27
>Noah_Goldstein: EEINORR 6E IRONE +26 38
#note He told me that he had ONERIER on his rack and missed it, which does play in 3 spots.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ACEKNSU 5C AUK +34 61
#note I did not know that UNCAKES was a word, even though it doesn't sound like one. This is the best nonbingo, but still, #knowledgelarge
>Noah_Goldstein: INQRT C1 QINT.R +30 68
#note He could have played C3 TRANQ for 48 based on this partial rack.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?CENOSZ I1 COZEN.rS +85 146
#note J2 ZONES might not be a bad idea if it didn't mean playing so many tiles that I may be worse off next turn. But this is the only bingo that plays besides 3A Ca(N)ZONES, which is clearly worse than my play and only slightly worse than J2 ZONES. Good find.
>Noah_Goldstein: DENO 3I .ENDO +30 98
#note I like this play from Noah a lot when he's behind.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAEIJRY L1 JA.E +40 186
#note This one also wins the sim.
>Noah_Goldstein: EEP 1L .EEP +39 137
>Samuel_Kaplan: AIIIRSY 1H I.Y +24 210
#note As boring as this move looks, it does take out plays like 1C (Q)UANTI(C) and (Q)UARTI(C) and grooms my rack nicely.
>Noah_Goldstein: EGGU 2B G.GUE +18 155
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?AFIIRS H4 FI. +21 231
#note Looks fine. No bingoes were missed.
>Noah_Goldstein: UX 3F XU +19 174
#note I immediately inferred Noah didn't keep an I, otherwise he would have played XI at 2N.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?AAINRS O1 .IRANhAS +80 311
#note While I did have H8 (O)RINASAl as a backup in case Column O bingoes got blocked, I was nonetheless pleased to find this one, which does score 3 more than the easier to spot (P)ARtISAN.
>Noah_Goldstein: ABNR N7 BARN +14 188
>Samuel_Kaplan: EILLMOO M6 MOLE +20 331
#note I feel that I had the right idea by doing this over M7 OLEO given the 24 consonants and only 12 vowels unseen, but I think M5 LOOM might be a slightly better version of this just because I get to hang onto my E, although I am scoring 2 more points here and it's not possible to close down the board just yet. LOOM does edge out MOLE in the sim. #strategysmall
>Noah_Goldstein: DE J6 DE +19 207
>Samuel_Kaplan: AGILOTU O10 AGOUTI +26 357
#note Part of me didn't love this play here, but it's the most I'm scoring even after Noah just fished off 2 nice tiles. I really needed to get rid of my T with 4 more unseen. This or K7 GUILT are the top 2 choices by far.
>Noah_Goldstein: HO K3 .OH +14 221
>Samuel_Kaplan: ILLLTTV -LLLTV +0 357
#note K7 VILL is too reckless after Noah once again fished. I'm fine with exchanging, and it's not unreasonable to throw everything back as the only meaningful spot I really have with my T is to start with one at K5 for bingoes. The sim doesn't even like keeping any Ts here and it's perfectly understandable- there is already an open T in AGOUTI.
>Noah_Goldstein: IP N4 PI +10 231
>Samuel_Kaplan: CDEITVY K7 VICED +27 384
#note I didn't see DICTY in this spot, and it's probably better to ditch my T here despite that seeming counterintuitive at first because keeping a V usually won't get along nicely with a hugh consonant:vowel imbalance. #findingmedium
>Noah_Goldstein: ADW J10 WAD +31 262
#note Yea, that's part of why DICTY was better.
>Samuel_Kaplan: BLLMRTY 12L TYR. +14 398
#note Haven't made any huge mistakes this game, but this one was not good. 13I BYRL is obviously the play. #findinglarge
>Noah_Goldstein: AEIRSST 14H ARTSIES. +70 332
>Samuel_Kaplan: BLLLMTV H12 BL.M +33 431
>Noah_Goldstein: ET M11 T.E. +14 346
#note Or M12 (Y)E(E)T. Lots of Ls and Ts in the end and I definitely could have found BYRL/WADY for which Noah would have had to settle for B6 ARTSIES instead of his ARTSIEST play. Other than that, not a badly played game. 1-0 +71.
