>Jackson_Smylie: EGLMMOR H6 GLOM +14 14
#note figured GOLEM is more standard, but against Seth I'd rather keep things tighter, and GLOM has a lot of merit even generally, since it gives so much less back. this worked out very well because he would have scored 90 after GOLEM!
>Seth_Lipkin: DDESTTU 6H .UTTED +10 10
#note actual rack. DUD(E)TTES would have hurt
>Jackson_Smylie: EGILMRV L1 VELIG.R +30 44
>Seth_Lipkin: CRSY 8L SCRY +43 53
>Jackson_Smylie: EFIMNRS 8C FERMI.NS +64 108
>Seth_Lipkin: ADDHOTY 3I ODD.Y +22 75
#note actual rack, so I heard. ATHODYD doesn't play!
>Jackson_Smylie: EEKLNOU 1K E.OKE +36 144
#note I could do O(V)ULE as well, which I didn't see. I prefer EVOKE still since as bad as LNU is, it's not worth a 12 point sacrifice
>Seth_Lipkin: ?AABEHT E6 BA.ATHEa +74 149
#note nice find
>Jackson_Smylie: EFILNUU D12 FLUE +27 171
>Seth_Lipkin: AHLTW 15C W.ALTH +36 185
>Jackson_Smylie: CINNNOU 4E NUNCIO +16 187
#note this is the game of unplayable low prob bingoes! INCONNU does not play. CONIN(E) 2g is cool, pretty similar to nuncio
>Seth_Lipkin: ?AINORW N7 A.ROWINg +74 259
>Jackson_Smylie: AEEINPU F10 EAU +20 207
#note my position is terrible here - I pretty much just have the space in the lower part of the board for bingoing, and the left side right now is very uninviting. The other problem is getting outrun, since plays that open the left side of the board score badly and let Seth outrun. I can't reasonably get two bingoes here, since any bingo on the bottom will close the other lanes in the bottom.
do I play EAU 3C to opan a weird marginal lane on the 2 row? I thought hard about UNI(T)E as well, setting up D and G hooks. That could possibly work but I have to hit them and hit a bingo when I hit them, since I imagine Seth will soon block all the openings. I figured my best shot was to play EAU and make sure I stay within range of hitting one bingo win, and hope he decides to not block or doesn't fully block (such as leaving the J column open).
>Seth_Lipkin: EPRX 3C PREX +37 296
>Jackson_Smylie: AEGIINP 4A PIA +12 219
#note which PIA do you play? My position is pretty terrible here, and I sort of liked the 9a PIA so that he can't play down from the P as easily, making him slightly less likely to block the lane. My game plan now is most likely to have him block PIA, bingo on the bottom part of the board, and hope he gets bogged down with JQVZ type tiles
>Seth_Lipkin: AORV A4 .ARVO +30 326
>Jackson_Smylie: EEGIIJN 6C JI.E +15 234
#note thought about JEEING to throw in the towel, but there's still a tiny bit of hope
>Seth_Lipkin: QS 12M Q.S +13 339
>Jackson_Smylie: BEGINNT 13L BI. +32 266
#note I thought about c1 NIPA to go for BANTENGS, but I cannot imagine a world where that works. QIS definitely doesn't keep an I, and he probably has another S. He said something about playing QI at first that made it possible he was spending his only S to block -ING plays, so bantengs is possible, but I have to hope he phonies or something which is just too ridiculous a hope.
My plan now is for him to maybe empty the bag and allow me to bingo out, or play one tile as I fish one tile on the top row.
