>Mina: EENRUVZ 8D VENUE +24 24
#note Best play.
>Melissa_Routzahn: AFNTT E4 FATT.N +18 18
>Mina: ?EILORZ D8 .aLORIZE +91 115
#note Second best. Wow, there was a triple available that I didn't know, H1 cREOLIZ(E), for 101.
>Melissa_Routzahn: AEIPRSW I6 WASPIER +75 93
#note Sexy top option is 13B PA(I)RWISE which I wouldn't have seen.
>Mina: AABDMRR 15A BAR.D +24 139
#note Kinda surprised this is only seventh best since it blocks a scary triple-triple and has a nice leave, but the top six options all score more. Best is 14B MA(Z)ARD for 40 leaving BR (which I didn't know) are 14B BA(Z)AR for 36 leaving DMR (a leave which seems much inferior to mine, but I guess it's worth it because it scores 12 points more than I did?!).
>Melissa_Routzahn: ABJNO H11 BANJO +52 145
>Mina: ACHMORT B8 TRACHOM. +84 223
#note Oh shite, I missed H1 CHROMAT(E) for 105! A word I knew. My play is flashy but second best.
>Melissa_Routzahn: ADIW D1 WADI +34 179
>Mina: AEGLRXY 2A GAL.XY +50 273
#note Best play, and I was happy to find it.
>Melissa_Routzahn: DOU A7 DUO +20 199
>Mina: EELLOOR 1D .OOLER +41 314
#note Best play, and again I felt awesome about finding it.
>Melissa_Routzahn: CDEEFST 2H DEFECTS +97 296
>Mina: AEIIKLS 1M EIK +25 339
#note Second best. Quackle prefers C2 (L)IKE for 32 leaving AILS, and indeed that's a cute spot which I probably didn't see.
>Melissa_Routzahn: IQU 6B QUI. +33 329
>Mina: AILNPRS K1 P.ARLINS +70 409
#note Best play.
>Melissa_Routzahn: EOTV 8K .TOVE +27 356
>Mina: AEEGIST A1 E.G +15 424
#note Not among Quackle's fifteen choices, but its second choice is C2 (L)EG which performs the exact same fish as I am, just for more points. Preferred is A1 A(G)GIE for 24 leaving EST.
>Melissa_Routzahn: IY 13F YI. +7 363
#note Leaving one in the bag as she plays this, Melissa appears to be fishing too.
>Mina: AEINSTU N5 SUI.ANTE +65 489
>Mina: H (challenge) +5 494
#note Here's where I'm super proud of my playing strategy (for a change). Instead of playing the most obvious bingo (4H TAU(R)INES) or the highest-scoring bingo (14H (J)AUNTIES), I correctly played the bingo which *blocks the most lanes*. Championship Player agrees. Woot!!!
>Melissa_Routzahn: ?EGIMNO O11 aMONG +38 401
#note That did it. Of course there are still bingo lanes left, but she is indeed bingoless despite holding a nice blank rack. I didn't know EMONG.
>Mina: H 7M H. +18 512
#note Highest-scoring outplay.
>Mina: (EI) +4 516
