>Vannitha: JNU 8G JUN +20 20
>W: AFHLUYZ 9H HYLA +28 28
#note Too open. Should've played my other choice, 9F FAH - unfortunately I didn't notice that it sets up my Y so nicely or I would've done it for sure.
>Vannitha: ?AEFLMT K7 ME.TLoAF +74 94
>W: ADFPUUZ L4 ZUPA +34 62
>Vannitha: IIW L11 IWI +24 118
>W: ADFNQRU 13I QU..R +48 110
>Vannitha: ACEHIOR M2 CHORIAE +99 217
>Vannitha: ACEHIOR -- -99 118
>W: ADFINVV J3 VIVDA +21 131
#note With full rack knowledge, Quackle likes M1 VIVA, but that's not realistic because it's having Vannitha play ARCHI(V)E with me holding a D. Considering more realistic plays like HAVOC are available to her, my play looks a bit better.
>Vannitha: ACEHIOR M2 CHORE +37 155
>W: ?EEFINO 2K FI.E +18 149
#note Risky, but perhaps worth it holding the blank.
>Vannitha: AGILW N6 WILGA +35 190
>W: ?DDENOS 1F SNoODED +90 239
#note I saw both SNOODED and DESNOOD but I missed the overlapping potential on the O column somehow - and I think I even looked there.
>Vannitha: AIOPS O5 PSOAI +41 231
>W: EIKNORT J12 K.E +25 264
#note Playing this was agonizing; I don't really get why I couldn't talk myself out of it. It actually sims quite well, trailing only 4H KOI, which is far safer; but why would I turn the game into a race?
>Vannitha: BEGOTU 2A BOUGET +26 257
>W: EINORRT A2 .ORNITE +30 294
>Vannitha: BDIINOT E2 .DITION +16 273
>W: NORRSTY 15F RYOTS +32 326
>Vannitha: AB 1N BA +16 289
>W: EELMNRT 14B METRE +22 348
#note I thought this was clever but Quackle despises it. My objective was to prevent sevens that could come down from either BORNITE or EDITION, but apparently the open E gives back at least as many bingos as blocking takes away. The star play here is D2 GEMEL, which scores well, blocks the X bomb, and doesn't empty the bag the way D4 MELTER does; I should withstand bingos after that move.
>Vannitha: AEGORSX D2 .OXES +51 340
