>Scott_Appel: ADEINNU -AE +0 0
>Stefan_Rau: AEIILOP H4 PILEI +20 20
#note Or AIOLI, I guess.
>Scott_Appel: AEGINU 6C UNAGI.E +12 12
>Stefan_Rau: AABFOOS 5D OBA +23 43
>Scott_Appel: ACY 4D CAY +38 50
>Stefan_Rau: AFGLORS 7G F.R +23 66
#note This tops the sim by about a point over I6 (E)F. I hate just dropping one tile.
>Scott_Appel: EEEP J7 EPEE +15 65
>Stefan_Rau: AGLOOSU D4 ...GOU +10 76
#note Oh, wow, this actually is best by a healthy margin. It seemed like such a cop-out of a move at the time.
>Scott_Appel: EFIQ 9A FIQ.E +27 92
>Stefan_Rau: AILNORS 10G ALI.NORS +60 136
#note Not that I'm one to complain about a bingo, but it seemed like there were an unusual number of 60- and 61-pointers this tournament. This (or AILERONS) is the only one here.
>Scott_Appel: ADHX E8 H.XAD +37 129
>Stefan_Rau: DEHOOSW 12B WOO.SHED +84 220
#note Wasn't sure enough about WOOSHED to grab for the extra points.
>Scott_Appel: LOTZ 4H .LOTZ +32 161
>Stefan_Rau: EIIJKRS A7 KI. +30 250
#note Yeah, my brain kinda checked out here. I rejected (P)IKERS because I didn't want a huge-scoring bingo coming down the O column, but I can't remember what lame reasons I came up with for not going with KOJI or JOKIER. KIF is just silly.
>Scott_Appel: IRT L1 RIT. +14 175
>Stefan_Rau: EGIJRST 3J JI.TER +37 287
#note I'm just butchering this game. I wasn't crazy about JITTER at the time (Hey, why don't I just go ahead and double his chances of a triple-triple?), and it gets absolutely slaughtered in the sim. Playing for leave with J(O)G or blocking the lanes with J(I)GS look much stronger.
>Scott_Appel: ?ADMNNU 1H UNDe.MAN +140 315
#note Clearly, if you want to see a triple-triple, the place to be is at a game between Scott and me.....this is the third one that's hit the board in our 11 meetings. Unfortunately, it's UNDERMAN# (also MUNDANER#....c'mon, what the frigging hell, OWL?). UNDERMANNED is perfectly good, regardless of lexical preference. I guess no one would believe me if I tried to claim that letting this go was the result of confusion from studying my elevens?
>Stefan_Rau: AEGMNST 2B MAGNETS +76 363
#note It's better to be lucky than good, as they say.
>Scott_Appel: V N1 .V. +12 327
>Stefan_Rau: CELSTWY 13C WYE +50 413
#note WELL IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME I MADE SEMI-INTELLIGENT DECISION
>Scott_Appel: ADENRUV 14B AN +10 337
>Stefan_Rau: CELOOST 13I OCELOTS +74 487
#note Didn't deserve that, but I'll take it.
>Scott_Appel: ABDEIRT 8J .REBID +36 373
>Stefan_Rau: ?RUV L10 .VU.aR +18 505
#note Hey, look at that, I actually found the only out.
>Stefan_Rau: (AT) +4 509
