>Diane: OT 8G TO +4 4
>Mack_: ADFGIOO 9E GOOF +17 17
>Diane: FO 10E OF +29 33
>Mack_: AADIIIW 11C AID +18 35
#note This seemed just worth playing, and sims neck and neck with exchanging all.
>Diane: ABET 12A BEAT +24 57
>Mack_: ?AAEIIW -AAIIW +0 35
>Diane: OUY A12 .UOY +27 84
>Mack_: ?EENOOR I2 hONOREE +61 96
#note Only bingo.
>Diane: HIRU 5H H.URI +16 100
>Mack_: AAENQWZ L4 Q. +22 118
#note Quackle prefers WINZE by about 1.5%, but I prefer unloading the Q and saving the Z for H1 next turn.
>Diane: CIS M3 CIS +30 130
>Mack_: AAEGNWZ H1 ZAG +43 161
>Diane: ITW J1 WIT +16 146
>Mack_: AENPRTW 6G WA.P +30 191
>Diane: AH B14 HA +25 171
>Mack_: EEIKNRT 1J .INKER +42 233
>Diane: ILRT 10H TIRL +12 183
>Mack_: AEEIPTY K8 PI.Y +18 251
#note This sims surprisingly well. It only leaves two bingo lanes, the R at O1 and row 13 hooking ITS. Another benefit of this play was that...
>Diane: INU - +0 183
#note She challenged.
>Mack_: ABEESTV 8K .AVES +33 284
#note This opens a few lanes, but puts me up over a bingo and if Diane can't bingo immediately I can block all the lanes and will almost definitely win.
>Diane: INU O1 .UIN +5 188
>Mack_: BEELNST N6 BE.TLE +16 300
#note (OFT)ENEST is a cool play I missed, but I like this better anyway as it forces Dians to bingo with ITS, and such a bingo won't even be enough. I can't come up with many, if any, situations where this loses, but there are definitely a few miracle cases where OFTENEST might lose, so this looks superior anyway.
>Diane: EER L11 ERE +11 199
>Mack_: DEMNRSX M12 EX +38 338
#note Dropping the X at N2 is obviously way better statically, but I wanted to block the new bingo lane Diane created. Either way, it is virtually impossible for me to lose here.
>Diane: AIL J10 .AIL +10 209
>Mack_: DEJMNRS 14F MENDS +23 361
#note I thought this made it impossible for Diane to bingo aside from something like SOLONETZ on row 1, but...
>Diane: ?ADENTU B5 DENATUr. +66 275
#note I missed that lane. Nice spot by Diane, this is her only bingo.
>Mack_: AJLMRSV 8A J.VA +45 406
>Diane: CDGNO H12 CO.N +27 302
>Mack_: LMRS C10 M..RS +24 430
#note I thought this was better than going out with MERLS since I thought Diane had GE and not GD, but MERLS is 8 better.
>Diane: DG L7 G.D +8 310
>Diane: (L) +2 312
