>Johnny_Utah: DIJOSVW 8G JOW +26 26
#note Best play!
>Timocracy: NU G8 .UN +11 11
>Johnny_Utah: ADIKNSV 11G KIVAS +39 65
#note It's either this or KINDA in the same spot. I think KINDA would have worked out better although Quackle like KIVAS.
>Timocracy: AEFV 10J FAVE +33 44
#note Blocking OUTSPEND.
>Johnny_Utah: DENOPTU H11 .NPUT +24 89
#note 12K POUND, 12K PUNTO,PUTON or this? It's a pretty close call.
>Timocracy: AERSTUY N9 ESTUARY +87 131
#note Best play! Tim saw JUNKY so this was coming down no matter what.
>Johnny_Utah: DEEGLOZ O4 GLOZED +60 149
#note Best play!
>Timocracy: ACEORRS 15D CREA.ORS +63 194
#note Tim missed J2 ARROCES for 81 although this still stings.
>Johnny_Utah: AAELRTW 14F WA.L +32 181
#note This or 14E AW for 28. It's very close.
>Timocracy: EERT O12 TREE +37 231
>Johnny_Utah: AEIOORT M13 OOT +21 202
#note A horrible draw to AERT. It's this or TOEA in the same spot.
>Timocracy: Y 6N Y. +13 244
>Johnny_Utah: AAEHIRX M8 AX. +37 239
#note Best play!
>Timocracy: FI L7 IF +18 262
>Johnny_Utah: AEHIMOR 7H MOI +16 255
#note Yeah I think this was a slight mistake given Tim's last few plays. I assumed Tim was close to a bingo and had at least one of the blanks, so I need to block columns J and K. My play blocks, but allows bingos ending in -ES and -EST which i saw the possibility of. Given this inference, maybe K3 IHRAM? I'm not sure. -6?
>Timocracy: ?INPSTU 6D PUNIeST +76 338
#note Best play! Tim still would bingo some time but IHRAM would keep the black knight at bay for a little longer.
>Johnny_Utah: AAEEEHR D3 HEA. +18 273
#note I chickened out on HEAPER. -3.3 I really needed the extra lane.
>Timocracy: CEO 3B EC.O +18 356
>Johnny_Utah: AEEILNR F5 E. +2 275
#note I have to create a second lane right? ALIENER is unplayable. This seems fine plus it plays a little defense at E5.
>Timocracy: GT E5 G.T +16 372
>Johnny_Utah: AEILNNR 4H LEARNIN. +70 345
#note Best play! I originally thought I had drawn dead and then looked harder and found this.
>Timocracy: IQ 3M QI +46 418
>Johnny_Utah: ABILNOR 2N BI +18 363
#note Not sure. I wanted to get rid of the B and the I since there were 2 unseen I's in the pool. I considered H1 BOIL but that obstructs the E2 line. L12 ORB is a possibility too.
>Timocracy: HI 12K HI +16 434
#note Not playing ORB is looking like a mistake because Tim is able to drop the bag to one and score 16. Now I have an uphill battle.
>Johnny_Utah: ADELNOR 2E LADRONE +64 427
#note Things look bad around and this pre endgame is probably unwinnable. I couldn't find a good fish that preserved two lines and I eventually just played a bingo. If I am going to play a bingo, I should just play B1 OLEANDER for 76. I didn't play RELOANED/OLEANDER because I was concerned about a possibility of a BEDIM snapack. I think I am porbably sunk either way.
>Timocracy: ?BDDEIM B2 B.DIMmED +88 522
#note Tim didn't even have a 7 with these letter. OLEANDER for sure, even if it does concede the loss. Oh well, it's only a practice game.
>Timocracy: (G) +4 526
#note MOI and the pre-endgame were questionable but these things are up for debate.
