>Ryan_Fischer: CEIIOOP 9F POI +12 12
#note Just IO, apparently.

>Winter: AGM 13K MAG +43 210
>Ryan_Fischer: INNRRSU C9 IN.URN +14 173
#note Missed RUNI(C). Even still, I was happy with this play. Atypical of me, sets up my S and cleans up my rack nicely.
>Winter: ?EELNOU B3 EUgENOL +60 270
#note OpULEN(C)E.
>Ryan_Fischer: EINPRST D3 PTERINS +73 246
#note E(N)PRINTS. Didn't know NIPTERS. PRINTERS, SPLINTER, and SPRINTER play too.
>Winter: BJO A1 JOB +40 310
>Ryan_Fischer: ?ABDEIU 15C sUBIDEA +86 332
#note Okay, so I'm getting a bit lucky here. Saw DUTIABLE too. Also, (T)ItUBA(T)ED! hABI(T)UDE, too, and UNBIASED and BEAUTIED.
>Winter: DOW A6 DOW +41 351
>Ryan_Fischer: AEIOQSV 14F QI +65 397
>Winter: GIRU O6 GUIR. +18 369
>Ryan_Fischer: ACEHOSV 4H VE.CH +34 431
#note Missed CHACO (doubted it), and didn't know CHAVE. Played VETCH to kill the top of the board anyway.
>Winter: NR 12B N.R +12 381
>Ryan_Fischer: AAFHOST 5J .HAT +33 464
#note (T)HOFT or HAAF win 100%, apparently. Played THAT to keep SOFA down low. It wins 100% too. So watch me blow this.
>Winter: DEEILRS C2 EE +20 401
>Ryan_Fischer: AFINORS 1C FON +13 477
#note So here's the worst turn I've ever played in my 10-year Scrabble career. My thought process. Somewhat dejected, sure, from getting kicked around the Scrabble board, losing my last 4. Winter is tough, and I've got him, don't fuck it up, just play anything don't fuck it up! Okay, out in two. Spread a concern. Try not to give back too much. What does he have? Oh yeah, I have him tracked! DERVILS? What's a DERVIL? That's not a word. No, he doesn't have anything. But still, I have to block the triple right? Don't want him to play DRIVES there. So... I can play SARI down low. That leaves FON to block. Sure, that makes sense. Play that! I even saw SAFFRON but passed on it because it gave back DEVIL or whatever for a good score. Just sick. Just sick. Champ says OSAR for what it's worth, leaving FIN down low, I guess. I don't know why my brain did what it did, but it did. So for anyone whose ever blown a game, can it be as bad as this?
>Winter: DEILRSV F1 DRIVELS +83 484
#note Oh yeah, that is a word. Challenged out of frustration, incredulity, and let's face it, game theory. The ironic thing is, this brain fart of epic proportions gave me high loss for the tournament. Heh.
>Winter: (ISAR) +8 492
