>Michael_Fagen: CEILRTU 8B UTRICLE +70 70
#note this game was fun
>Joshua_Sokol: AENORRS C6 AN.RORSE +70 70
>Michael_Fagen: ?DEIPSY I8 SPIDErY +75 145
>Joshua_Sokol: EGINPSU 13G PE.USING +76 146
#note I actually wondered when a game like this would occur against Michael, since I play him most often. It finally happened
>Michael_Fagen: ANW H12 W.AN +47 192
>Joshua_Sokol: EEFMNOQ D1 FOEMEN +32 178
#note in rough shape but I'm confident
>Michael_Fagen: EJW B4 JEW +35 227
>Joshua_Sokol: ACEHIQT 12L QI +46 224
#note in better shape
>Michael_Fagen: DFU E3 FUD +29 256
>Joshua_Sokol: ACEEHMT 1A CHA.E +39 263
#note didn't like CHE(F) cause I saw lots of A's left and O's that could ruin my leave. Didn't like (F)ETCH cause it created a lane for a 7 and was vowel heavy, although it was the thing I saw intuitively. Didn't like B10 HAEM because it could give a bunch back and I don't need the volatility. I think I chose right.
>Michael_Fagen: TZ 10H T.Z +32 288
>Joshua_Sokol: AAEMOOT B10 MOAT +28 291
#note Timely OOAA draw. I was wondering when my dreams would crash in front of my eyes. This turn and next I fail to consider the cringeworthy play of J9 A(Z)O, which is probably correct here. :/

Felt I could catch him with no big play down A this turn though, given his apparent consonant-heaviness. He played TIZ really really fast. MOOT is better though, weirdly enough.
>Michael_Fagen: ERTV 12A V..TER +26 314
>Joshua_Sokol: ABEILOO 3C B..OOL +24 315
#note ah, F6 BI(C)OLO(R) is nice. Didn't like the looks of 11E BOO over this for some reason. I think I should keep things closed and keep the L. Hoped he would think this was phony and challenge.
>Michael_Fagen: AILV H1 VI.LA +27 341
#note no dice, bad combo of misguided plays this turn and last.
>Joshua_Sokol: ABEIIOO 4H .OOBIE +16 331
#note forcing me to play this. I keep thinking this is valid, but it's still just BLOOIE, update and all. Hi LOOBIE! :)
>Michael_Fagen: ?ADGGIS 6F DISGAGe +74 415
>Michael_Fagen: ?ADGGIS -- -74 341
#note Finally someone else catches the DISGAGE* DISGAUGE* MISGAGE* MISGAUGE virus!!!! So it's not only me who is confused as hell about those.
>Joshua_Sokol: AAAIIRT 5K ATRIA +22 353
#note I absolutely needed that phony. I think this is good. He'll hopefully miss DAGGA and play VAGI and then I can outrun him.
>Michael_Fagen: ?ADGGIS A12 .AGI +27 368
>Joshua_Sokol: AEHIKLU O1 HAIK. +51 404
#note timely
>Michael_Fagen: D 1A .....D +15 383
>Joshua_Sokol: ELNRTUY M3 T..RY +24 428
#note I was most worried about x(ER)OXED. Now I can block most 9s and outrun, although he did just give me a nice spot for UN(I)TY at 2F. Apparently this doesn't always win?
>Michael_Fagen: ?DGNOSX N13 .O +6 389
#note Ah, if I draw the N I lose! Wow! Michael ran out of time here and just made this weird-looking play.
>Joshua_Sokol: EELNU O14 EN +8 436
#note didn't want to retrack, so I just played it safe and blocked some crazy scenarios. - alot though, since I missed 1H (V)ENULE to go out! Ouch
>Michael_Fagen: ?DGNSX F8 .oX +27 416
#note -13 to 6H SoX
>Joshua_Sokol: ELU 2G L.EU +8 444
#note VILLAE is a word. Oops
>Joshua_Sokol: (DGNS) +12 456
