#note i don't really like slotting a semi-decent letter in a TWS-TWS lane, but the extra points should offset the risk. i mean, d2 GRR is your safer option - and better rack cleaner - but it's 14 less. and holding two Rs isn't awful.

#note ducky says to go with d8 FRORN (which takes an E back hook). as much as i heart suggestions from the bird, i think Ds are overvalued and i'm happy to use them when the opportunity presents itself.
>rare_moss_banjo: AHMOU 2G MOHUA +20 92
#note don't know what his other two tiles were, but 9e OGHAM fits nicely.
>sneakyofverb: AEIINNR 1J NARINE +25 144
#note sometimes, it pays to know your one-pointer adjectival sixes. or your seven-voweled maori 11s. i can’t remember which is more important.

#note the sea wants what the sea wants.

#note best, along with ADOPTEE and EPAZOTE.

>rare_moss_banjo: ILLWY M5 WILLY +25 277
>sneakyofverb: AACDOSV 10I OVA +18 333
#note i was pissed because i thought his WILLY blocked my ADVOCATS* (it's only ADVOCAAT). wait, that last sentence looks cocked-up.
>rare_moss_banjo: BNRY B10 BR.NY +44 321
#note dude, stop approaching my score!
>sneakyofverb: ACDEGOS A7 DECO +25 358
#note quackers says to forget about the A column, which makes sense based on the fact there are no remaining tiles - except for the blank - which hook there. i decided to ignore this fact and score as much as possible while using the E since there are four unseen.
>rare_moss_banjo: IQS B6 QIS +37 358
#note ok, now we're even!
>sneakyofverb: ?AEGNRS E8 .AG.R +27 385
#note in many situations, this rack would be perfect for a late clinching bingo. while there aren't any available under SEAWANT, through A_A, or in the pattern of *E(MOD)*, there are a couple ways to ensure victory. i looked for a long time before choosing LAGER, which happens to be best. a parallel play under SEAWANT should only be done if you can avoid giving him a spot for BETTIES (which, as it turns out, he didn't have).
>rare_moss_banjo: BEEEIST 11K BEE +24 382
#note he didn't see 4k SITZ, but that's fine as i'm still going to play out and win.
>sneakyofverb: ?ENST I2 .oNEST +9 394
#note i was running low on time, so i was simply looking to use all my tiles. but if i couldn't spot any of the plays under MOHUA, hooking LAGER and underlapping SEAWANT, or even the cute c10 eE(V)NS, you think i would've at least been able to recognize the line pluralizing FLOUT. oh well, a win's a win.
