#player1 Jason_Li Jason Li
#player2 Josh Josh
>Jason_Li: INOPT 8D POINT +20 20
#note choosing to allow 3-letter extensions over a front S-hook? PINTO was the other choice and would have been much worse for Jason.
>Josh: CEFNORW E7 W.ONERF +26 26
#note no CON(I)FER 2x2 for me. I knew I7 FEW was the right play here but I really wanted to play WOONERF because I love woonerfs. -5
>Jason_Li: EILMNT 13C LI.TMEN +32 52
#note trigger warning next turn
>Josh: ABCDNOR 12H BACON +33 59
#note no BRACONID for me, fucking luckbox Brett
saw AC(E)RB, didn't consider B(E)AD keeping CORN again, because if I forgo a play that keeps a certain leave I will always forgo another move immediately after that keeps the same leave for consistency's sake. All plays are very close in value, I liked this line best, but probably BANCO instead. I didn't want to go under 20:00 on turn two so I slapped this down, I could have spared 3 more seconds.
>Jason_Li: ?GIOTUV I2 OUTGIVe +72 124
>Josh: DEIIORY 11K YID +26 85
#note H10 RI(BE)YE
>Jason_Li: DEGMU 5G MU.GED +22 146
>Josh: EHIOPRV 2I .VERHIP +46 131
#note phony, got it by luckily, this would be top 10000
>Jason_Li: IQ 6F QI +35 181
>Josh: ?AEIKOW 4K WOKE +33 164
#note resisted the urge to play WAKE given the prevalence of A's in the pool. WOKE is still better
>Jason_Li: AGLNORU 14H LANGUOR +78 259
#note scored as 76.
>Josh: ?AAEILR 15C AERIALs +92 256
>Jason_Li: CSTY O12 CYST +45 304
>Josh: ABDELRT 13M BA. +26 282
#note I can't believe what happened this turn. I saw L(I)B(E)RATED and thought it only used 6 of my tiles, and wrote down ABDEEILRT on my scoresheet. Then I wrote down DELIBERATE and tried to remember if there was another 9 in there. Needless to say DELIBERATE is a 10 and LIBERATED is a 9 and plays for 64 points here. I don't remember ever having done this before although I know a lot of others do it pretty often. I was very close to just putting it down as a joke.
>Jason_Li: AEENST O2 .ENATES +43 347
>Josh: DEEELRT 10A RELE.TED +63 345
#note insane luck
>Jason_Li: ADFOORU A8 FO.DO +30 377
#note Quackle says this is best, but this is a very complex pre-endgame. ODOU(R) was suggested in post-mortem, but even in the situation that arose (ZX being in the bag, giving him two massive spots for ZAX), he still would have lost.
Scored as 27
>Josh: AEHIJSS 10L HAJI +39 384
>Jason_Li: AAIRUXZ J8 RAX +34 411
>Josh: ESS K7 ESS +14 398
#note I thought I was going to have to try S(A)ES* 9I, choking the game. I hadn't seen that he had 4 tiles on his rack and that the Z was out until a minute or so into my turn. Almost choked one! #StillChokeFree #NotSeanWrona
>Josh: (AIUZ) +26 424
#note Jason underscored himself by 5 this game and I didn't catch it. Weird. Final 406-424
