>Joshua_Sokol: AILRRTV H4 VIRAL +24 24
#note figured keeping the A and playing VIRL was worth something like 7-8 points. I doubted that it could possibly be 10 points better, even with the defensive aspect. Quackle concurs.

>Joshua_Sokol: AAADNOS 4H .ANDA +22 116
#note so far super easy plays for me, this time it was a bit harder. (V)ANDA stood out, not much the matter with that play, but I also knew to consider 7A NADA and 7B ADO. ADO for the leave and NADA to better suit my leave and to force Mike into a box of "how do I get rid of this hotspot". The N at A7 is in no way a threat to me, definitely not compared to the D at K4. The former shouldn't last long and the latter might stay there all game. Also, keeping the SQUIB-S hook open looked more desirable than not. But I didn't think all of this was worth 3 points. I guess it was, as Quackle prefers NADA by around a point or two, citing VANDA's increased volatility.

>Joshua_Sokol: ALLLOOS 13I A.LOO +14 197
#note or 2K (W)ALL to score, but I was not a fan of creating those hooks, figured I had a better chance keeping things close.

#note started to play stupid here. I didn't like any J plays.
>Michael_Baker: DNOORSU O1 RONDOS +39 294
