>Avery: EIMNOPY H8 EPONYM +34 34
>Mark: ?BDEEST 14B DEBaTES +86 86
>Avery: EGILNRW 10G R.WELING +68 102
>Mark: EQRU L8 QU.RE +48 134
>Avery: ?ENSUUV C10 VENU. +16 118
#note Spent a while trying to find something better, but there isn't much to be had. I considered trying something like SUBVENUE*, but didn't think he'd buy that. In addition to being the best equity play, this has the benefit of saving another U for the Q.
>Mark: AIK 12A KI.A +26 160
>Avery: ?CIOSUX 8J CO.UIS +51 169
>Mark: AO 9G A.O +16 176
>Avery: ?EINNRX 15E NIX +22 191
#note A great leave that also saves an N for -ING possibilities on column N.
>Mark: OY I12 OY +25 201
>Avery: ?AAENOR O1 AmARONE. +74 265
#note Whoops, 8A ANAEROBE. Didn't think to look there. The fun A7 ANORAK is also there.
>Mark: AEGILRS E6 GLAIRES +75 276
>Avery: DEEITWZ N1 ZED +42 307
>Mark: AEHLM 8A HAEM.L +42 318
>Avery: ABEITVW C3 BAWTI. +24 331
#note Again, spent a while trying to generate plays but there isn't much available. Considered something like 6L BAWN but this is better.
>Mark: AFIT D1 FIAT +30 348
>Avery: DEGOOTV B2 DOVE +32 363
>Mark: JO 15A JO +30 378
>Avery: AEFGLOT 1D .OGLE +27 390
#note What to do here? First of all, this is phony, and I really thought it was good. Just FUGLE and BOGLE. I considered this, FAGOT, and FLOTAGE mostly. Plays like FINCH end the game almost immediately, so I feel like I have to block this somehow. This seems like my best choice (aside from FAGOT, which is actually valid), but I'd welcome more creative ideas.
>Mark: CIINRST M12 TIC +12 390
#note His actual rack. We spent a while dissecting this. He had mistracked and thought there was an E unseen, so he didn't do QUIRES/SIC.
>Avery: AFHPRTU 14J PAT.H +36 426
#note This is best, but also winning is J2 FUTHARC! (among many other plays)
>Mark: DINRST N5 TID.N. +19 409
>Avery: FRU 2H FUR +13 439
>Avery: (RS) +4 443
