>Jack_Overby: ABDEGTY 8D BADGE +24 24
#note Very mediocre. I missed 8D GYBED 28, which sims best.
>Tim_O'Hara: BIJ 9C JIB +28 28
>Jack_Overby: ELNTYYZ E5 TEN..LY +48 72
#note Very, very glad I found this!
>Tim_O'Hara: FU F6 FU. +30 58
>Jack_Overby: LMPWXYZ 7H PYX +23 95
#note 6B XYLEM 39 woulda been nice. Still, this is about as well as I can do. No way I am playing H6 PLEW 9, which inexplicably sims 1% ahead of my play.
>Tim_O'Hara: AAL 6I AAL +21 79
>Jack_Overby: CLMNOWZ 5H CWM +31 126
#note Not very often you score 30+ without hitting a single bonus square!
>Tim_O'Hara: DEHU D3 HUED +25 104
#note Tim was quite reluctant to play this.
>Jack_Overby: DLNNOOZ C1 ZOON +38 164
#note I was even more reluctant to play this! Sims best, though.
>Tim_O'Hara: EOO 1A OO.E +42 146
#note Not very often you score 40+ points with nuthin but three vowels! The epitome of why I played ZOON with such trepidation.
>Jack_Overby: DGILNRT 1A ....D +15 179
#note B1 OLD 19 would have been my dream play. Unfortunately, DOH is Collins only.
>Tim_O'Hara: AGIO D11 AGIO +15 161
>Jack_Overby: GIKLNRT 13C K.RTLING +80 259
#note I played this without a moment's hesitation, as I was virtually certain it was good. As it was... KIRTLES, KIRTLED, KIRTLING*. Sorry, Tim. This was not an intentional phony!
>Tim_O'Hara: PSST H12 P.TS +27 188
>Jack_Overby: ?AIMOOR 9H AMORInO +66 325
#note I was virtually certain I had missed something much better (e.g. from 15H). For the second straight turn, my virtual certainty was a real nothing!
>Tim_O'Hara: ADEIRSU M8 U.RAISED +66 254
#note 15H SUDARIES 80 would have been a bit better. But hey, at least he blocked my bingo! Yay!
>Jack_Overby: AEEHRTT L11 THETA +38 363
#note Chose this over L12 HATE 34, which sims best. Whatever, I'll take the 4 extra points.
>Tim_O'Hara: CELOS 15A CLOSE +31 285
>Jack_Overby: ENNRSTW B1 .WN +28 391
#note I wanted to play 10H NEW 37, but I chickened out on PEA/N. Alas, NEW wins the sim. NRST is fine given the abundance of vowels, and turning over an extra tile for the blank ain't too shabby, either.
>Tim_O'Hara: EF 10I EF +30 315
>Jack_Overby: EINRRST H7 ...R +12 403
#note Duh.
>Tim_O'Hara: ?EIINQU O5 QUINs +47 362
>Tim_O'Hara: ?EIINQU -- -47 315
#note I was pretty sure this didn't take nuthin. 'Twas right. Sorry, Tim.
>Jack_Overby: AEINRST 2E ANESTRI +64 467
#note This is safe; no Q bingo fits on row 1.
>Tim_O'Hara: ?EIINQU 1K QUINs +53 368
#note Tim realized right afterwards that he should have played 1J EQUINe 58, which would have scored 5 more and prevented this:
>Jack_Overby: AEIRVV O1 .AVVIER +16 483
#note My "outplay". As we discovered after the game... Tim was (literally) sitting on the 12th E the whole time.
#note Final score, with EI) from Tim's rack for me, minus 10 (time) from Tim, plus a 2-point scoring error elsewhere, was 487-360.
