>Brett_H: FIMNRUY J6 RU.MY +22 22
#note Q prefers FU(M)Y here leaving [MNIR] for fewer points. I really like the balance and turover of RUMMY. This was by far the lowest simming play of the game (4% points back and 11th in the list). Does anyone have any input as to why it might be so ill-favored?
>Margaret_Sutherland: JKNU 10F JUNK. +35 53
>Brett_H: FIINNOR 11C INFO +23 45
>Margaret_Sutherland: AAG 12E AGA +20 73
>Brett_H: IINPRST H1 PRISTIN. +83 128
#note I also saw the bingos through the I, but this is obviously best.
>Margaret_Sutherland: HILST 13B HILTS +34 107
>Brett_H: ?EEEOXZ G2 EX +36 164
#note ZE(R)O is another good option. Both plays leave the other as a comeback.
>Margaret_Sutherland: DLV C10 L.V.D +9 116
>Brett_H: ?EEORYZ I10 .YE +10 174
#note this might have been my favorite play of the whole tourney. I was surprise when it actually came back at the top of Qs list! Of course she could really burn me with the V or P.
>Margaret_Sutherland: ACENRRS 1H .RANCERS +95 211
>Brett_H: ?EILORZ H12 ZORI +94 268
#note but I get lucky. This was one of 2 +90 point non-bingo Z plays this tournament.
>Margaret_Sutherland: ADEP L1 .APED +20 231
>Brett_H: ??AELNU M3 ALEUroN +75 343
#note Quackle prefers to close down the triple lanes (INHAULER and SUPERNAL are at the top), but this one scored more and was nifty, so there.
>Margaret_Sutherland: DEO K4 DOE +22 253
>Brett_H: AEEINOV 14A NO.I +22 365
#note NOVAE is the obvious play here. This was a very lazy play on my part.
>Margaret_Sutherland: OW 15A OW +30 283
>Brett_H: AEEEOOV 5E OVA.E +16 381
#note Q prefers EAVE @ o8, but it seems very needless to open up the triple lane without an S. Plus I can see maybe that [EEO] is worse than [EOO], but that and the two points just doesn't seem like enough to justify the play.
>Margaret_Sutherland: BEW 4C WEB +20 303
>Brett_H: DEEOQTT L8 TOTED +18 399
#note not a great play here. I have some real potential to be screwed with the Q. TOD @ 3B is good because it gives me options if I draw an A, I or U. I played TOTED cause I wanted to cutoff big plays on the triple with the F or B.
>Margaret_Sutherland: ACOT 6B COAT +17 320
>Brett_H: AABEFGQ 15G Q. +11 410
>Margaret_Sutherland: EIS N1 .ISE +18 338
>Brett_H: AABEFGR 7C FEAR +28 438
#note I still don't know how to interpret Q sometimes. It says "best" by my play, but EAG(ER) is higher. EAGER is a cute play that sets up a big nearly unblockable BARF, but I really liked FEAR when I saw it. If it didn't give a T hook for a comeback it would probably easily be best.
>Margaret_Sutherland: GIITU 12L .UI +4 342
>Brett_H: ABG 3B GAB +26 464
>Brett_H: (GIT) +8 472
