>Sean_Wrona: ?ACNPRT 8G PACT +16 16
#note I didn't know either bingo (and had I she probably wouldn't have controlled the game), but this is a pretty good bet especially considering EPACT, but she could easily play that herself...

#note 22:06
>Ember_Nelson: AELR 10E EARL +24 44
>Sean_Wrona: ?DENNOR 11D END +19 35
#note Groan, my word-finding is patethic...

>Ember_Nelson: OSUY 12A YOUS +26 70
>Sean_Wrona: ?ANOORT 12F ORATiON +72 107
#note CARTOONY/OCTONARY. There's a cool pair of eights I didn't know...

>Ember_Nelson: AEFK A8 FAKE. +45 115
>Sean_Wrona: AEEILOT J2 ETIOLA.E +62 169
>Ember_Nelson: ?BDEGIS M6 BrIDGES +69 184
>Sean_Wrona: EIIJOPU 11K JO. +40 209
#note PETIOLATE, wow. It never occurred to me how dangerous that placement of ETIOLATE might be...

15:58
>Ember_Nelson: NSZ 8L Z.NS +69 253
>Sean_Wrona: AEIILPU -IIU +0 209
#note This doesn't sim well, but I still like it more than most of the recommended plays. Sure I agree PIU/PETIOLATE is the best, but how many 1500s know that? I really don't like what DUI and TUI do to the board leaving a worse leave for only a few points. TUI with no S is dreadful. DUI blocking the S and potential triple bingos also seems dreadful to me, and neither of those plays score anything and I'd guess AEILP is worse than AELP but I don't know that for a fact. By exchanging I'm not giving up any powerful lines or blocking the lines I myself would need to bingo, so I'd still stand a rather good shot of bingoing through the E, T, I, or S keeping AELP. Keeping AEILP seems much less versatile. I still like this.

>Sean_Wrona: ITV H1 VIT. +21 304
>Ember_Nelson: EHIRRSU B3 HURRIES +69 403
>Sean_Wrona: DEGIIRT 3A G.I +14 318
#note Oh yeah, I know DHURRIES is good but I wouldn't even think of it... I still think I need to bingo more than anything and then get lucky with high-scoring tiles after that, and with all the esses and blanks out, I almost need to do this, not thinking of DHURRIES.

>Ember_Nelson: IM A1 MI. +18 421
>Sean_Wrona: ADEEIRT O8 .TEADIER +83 401
#note I was a tad surprised the spot was still open, although I suppose I could have bingoed through the V also.

6:52
>Ember_Nelson: AH M2 AH +31 452
>Sean_Wrona: BCGMNQX K4 .X +36 437
#note Hahaha, wow... I guess I need more practice at trying to ensure there's always 8 tiles left after I bingo in the pre-endgame...

5:48
>Ember_Nelson: IINOTUU 13I INTO +22 474
>Sean_Wrona: BCGMNQ C2 Q. +11 448
#note I failed to record which of the three QIs I played, but I'll just guess it was this one because this seems like the play I'd be most likely to find immediately...

5:19
>Ember_Nelson: IUU E4 .IU +10 484
>Sean_Wrona: BCGMN C11 B.NG +21 469
#note For quite some time, I was looking to see if there I could keep her from going out. I saw FEU and MU and I was wondering if she might miss one of them if I blocked the other. I ultimately decided she wouldn't miss either play (especially because I spent minutes weighing this) and just played to minimize spread...
