>Mike_Baker: IIIIIII -IIIIIII +0 0
#note he had to beat me by 298 or something. Wise choice to slow the game down like this.
>Joshua_Sokol: AEEIILV H8 ALIVE +18 18
#note Definitely should have chose 8F here. Why give him a 2x2 to play through when all I have to do is not lose by 300? Especially giving him the biggest possible 2x2 with my V was not wise.
>Mike_Baker: ABEIRTV G3 VIBRATE +73 73
#note I didn't even remember what happened here, so my previous analysis is definitely on point and not results-oriented. No bingo plays after the 16-point ALIVE
>Joshua_Sokol: EEEIORS 11C EROSI.E +20 38
#note I start straight freaking out here. Not even trying to win anymore :P
>Mike_Baker: EOOR 5G .OOER +14 87
>Mike_Baker: EOOR -- -14 73
#note ok, now I'm trying to win again
>Joshua_Sokol: ADEPUWX 12A WAXED +56 94
#note BEARWOOD COOKWARE HAREWOOD PEARWOOD FOOTWEAR COLEWORT FIREWOOD FOREWORD ROSEWOOD OVERWORE OVERWORD OVERWORN FOREWORN FORSWORE HOMEWORK HONEWORT OPENWORK OVERWORK KOTOWERS NONOWNER OVERWORN OUTSWORE

in other words if I'm trying not to lose by 300 this is really dumb but like I said I wasn't gonna be no coward. If I really cared I should have played D7 UPWA(R)D, but I missed that. Sets my X up nicely.
>Mike_Baker: AEOORU A12 .AUR +21 94
#note Or maybe I just knew what his rack was and knew he had no bingo through the W.
>Joshua_Sokol: DLOPRSU C9 PL..US +36 130
#note or PL(EX)OR. Missed that one somehow.
>Mike_Baker: CEOO 3E CO.E +9 103
>Joshua_Sokol: DFMOOQR 12G D.FORM +32 162
>Mike_Baker: ?EIOSTT K5 SnOTTIE. +78 181

>Mike_Baker: AEL 15G ALE +14 209
>Joshua_Sokol: AAJLNTZ F2 J.TA +33 271
#note setting up my Z nicely
>Mike_Baker: AEEGINT M4 INTE.AGE +61 270
#note only bingo
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ALNTUZ H2 L.Z +44 315
#note that JZ draw really propelled me into the lead
>Mike_Baker: ENNO E5 NEON +18 288
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ACINTU 14I AUCTIoN +72 387
#note I was about to give up on finding a bingo here. I had complete tunnel vision. There are 5 different bingos that play.
>Mike_Baker: DHI O12 HI.D +36 324
>Joshua_Sokol: BDIINUY I1 YID +24 411
#note I missed L4 BY. That's obviously right here, leaves one in the bag, outruns any miracle bingo. This barely outruns FOREPA(W)S and MANPO(W)ER, which I missed. I calculated that it would win, but the next step is finding the possible bingos to maximize spread. Although I was locked into first, so spread was irrelevant. This blocked (L)ARKSOME. I was definitely exhausted at this point, so I spend two minutes calculating whether or not this outran B3 PERSONA. Finally after seeing that it did I noticed A(P)*
>Mike_Baker: AEMNOPR L1 PROM +30 354
#note He had MANPOWER!!!
>Joshua_Sokol: BFIKNSU I6 FUNK +32 443
