#note CREVETTE* I didn't think this was good but really didn't feel like trying to bingo after the plays I saw. This is also very hard to challenge because it's game over if CREVETTE is good, as I'm likely hitting at least 39 next turn with the O8 spot.

#note Q likes the aggressive AW G3 here, but that seems a bit ridiculous to me (-3?)

I hated to give up the D for FEUD but I see no plays that make sense that are good. Maybe that's why Q likes AW so much? maybe #tacticssmall

#note Horrible. For the second time in two games, I'm so fixated on blocking things that I fail to see a high prob bingo - this time it's IRO(N)ICAL. I'm also not quite confident enough on ORGIAC to pull the trigger here when he's aggressively fishing with a 3x3 line open. LOGIC seemed fun over ORGIC because of the extension possibilities, and it's generally good to favor scoring opportunities when you're ahead? #findingsaddest
>Greg_Heidler: ?EIPRSS M9 SPIdERS +82 380
#note I did not even realize that bingos could play there. Regardless SERPI(G)oS plays for a ton if I don't block the 3x3
>Matt_Canik: AGILNRR 14J GRR.L +20 385
#note Utterly confused about what to do here. Q recommends just about any fish where I drop the R down, but any non-quackle opponent will just immediately knock out the bingo possibilities and coast to a victory. I'm terrified of all the Is remaining in the pool but can't find good ways to score and play my I without setting up other big plays for Greg. I wanted to set up lines over on the left side making plays like RI(P) setting up GRIP, but nothing I saw convinced me - RIP allows TRIP, RID allows IRID, RAD allows TRAD, etc.

I spent nearly 10 minutes and finally settled on this, hoping to avoid JEST or JOIST plays making GRRRLS but I have no idea what I'm actually supposed to do here.

#note Greg has me tracked at 6 tiles here, not 7. Greg took a red-eye flight to get in last night and almost had his clock started for this one because he fell asleep at lunch. I think that's what made the difference here.
