>Joel_Sherman: AILRV 8D VIRAL +24 24
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BEIRTUU D8 .IRTUE +18 18
#note Bunch of plays sim close. I leaned towards this one for the shot at SUBVIRAL.

>Joel_Sherman: ADEERV H10 EVADER +38 180
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: AIINOOS -IOO +0 156
#note Saw IONONE and then decided I wasn't sure that it was a word. Oops. Bad mistake

>Joel_Sherman: IKO K5 KOI +30 271
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BIMNOSS 2K M.SON +26 303
#note I can't quite remember why I didn't like the plays at J4 (ISM, SOM) or why I wanted to play here instead. In any case, the best play is on this part of the board: EBON. For some reason I completely missed it.
>Joel_Sherman: ?EILRTT 15H .aTTLIER +77 348
>Joel_Sherman: ?EILRTT -- -77 271
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BEHILSX 13J HELIX +35 338
#note The sim prefers VEXIL, which also blocks all the bingos and takes out the V as well, but increases my score next turn a lot, since I'm likely hooking the S and blocking row 15 with a 4-5 letter word. Yup, VEXIL looks good.
>Joel_Sherman: ?EILRTT 14M TIL +26 297
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BCHNOSS J6 CHONS +35 373
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BCHNOSS -- -35 338
#note Man, I know perfectly well that CHON doesn't take an S. I plunked it down and then realized I can block the V if my word is five letters long, so I drop the S and hit the clock. It just completely didn't occur to me that I was making a phony. What an awful time for a brain fart like that!
>Joel_Sherman: ?EEJRT K11 JE. +20 317
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BCHNOSS J6 CHON +32 370
>Joel_Sherman: W 7I W... +15 332
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BDNOSST O1 ..D +4 374
#note I'm out of time. I spotted ENERGETIC, but didn't have time to see if a play like SNOB gave any eights back.
>Joel_Sherman: ?EEGIRT M7 sITE +17 349
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BNOSST 15J NOBS +18 392
>Joel_Sherman: EGR 8L ..RE +12 361
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ST I1 .TS +14 406
#note -40 to Joel for overtime
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: (G) +4 410
#note I'm glad CHONS didn't cost me, because that would have been a real shame.
