>Jonathan_Lindh: AEEINPT -E +0 0
#note Best. I'm getting much better at these kinds of close n-go opening positions.
>Karl_Higby: BDI 8G DIB +12 12
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEEINPT 9G ANI +16 16
#note Close. Probably ATE instead of ANI.
>Karl_Higby: CDEU 10D CUED +14 26
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEEOPTU 11F TOUPEE +24 40
#note Best.
>Karl_Higby: EHX 12H HEX +39 65
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?EEFIIV 10K FIE +11 51
#note I saw 10K FIVE for 17, but thought that was too aggro because of the R hook. Maybe I should play D10 CIVIE for 20. I think CIVIE is the play.
>Karl_Higby: ADGZ M7 GAZ.D +28 93
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?EINSTV J2 NaTIVES +76 127
#note NATIVES and D6 VESICANT for 76, which I saw, are neck amd neck. I prefer to play Karl on an open board and wanted to partially obstruct plays to the A in GAZED so NATIVES it is.
>Karl_Higby: JVY 5I J.VY +34 127
>Jonathan_Lindh: ABEINPR 3H PE.BRAIN +74 201
#note Best.
>Karl_Higby: LLM 8L M.LL +27 154
>Jonathan_Lindh: INOORRW O1 WI.O +24 225
#note L1 WORRY for 30. I would see the spot a turn later.
>Karl_Higby: KLNO D10 .LONK +22 176
>Jonathan_Lindh: FLNORRU L1 FU.R. +30 255
#note N10 FOUR for 36 seems insane with SSS? out but then again CLONKS/CLONKY are in play. I saw FOUR and passed on it.
>Karl_Higby: AEINORT O6 RE.ATION +59 235
#note FOUR would have blocked that. I was shocked Karl had neither an S or a Y after CLONK.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?ALNOOR C12 LOON +20 275
#note Wanted to obstruct the CLONK hooks after Karl's last play. O6 RELATIONAL for 30 is another possibility but I am ok with my play.
>Karl_Higby: GIS 15A GI.S +31 266
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AAEGRY H1 GA.Y +42 317
#note DRAYAGE and YARDAGE are a little above GAPY but it's very close.
>Karl_Higby: HORSTW 14J WHORTS +49 315
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AAAEMR 13K AMA +23 340
#note Apparently, 14A AMOK for 31. This is 5-6 points back, although my play worked out really really well.
>Karl_Higby: Q 2N Q. +44 359
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?ACDERU 15F CUDbEAR +97 437
#note Huge find with my time ticking down. I allowed myself to go over time instead of rushing my play, and calmly found my winning play.
>Karl_Higby: EIORSTT E12 ROE +16 375
#note N5 ROIL for 14, blocking my biggest spot and setting up D4 TESTY for 16 to go out.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEE N6 EE. +13 450
#note Best.
>Karl_Higby: ISTT 14B T... +20 395
#note Best along with SOKE in the same spot.
>Jonathan_Lindh: A 7L A... +9 459
#note Best.
>Jonathan_Lindh: (IST) +6 465
#note Final score recorded as 445-395 because I went about 80 seconds over.
