Player 1
#player1 Timocracy Timocracy
#player2 Johnny_Utah Johnny Utah
>Timocracy: NNU 8G NUN +6 6
#note Another Chicago club game.
>Johnny_Utah: CDEEEIO -4 +0 0
#note None of the options appealed. Maybe I should have played through with CODEINE but I do think exchanging keeping ICED or CED is reasonable. I kept ICED.
>Timocracy: ACEN 9F CANE +16 22
>Johnny_Utah: ACDEIIP 10G PIE +16 16
#note Either this or PIED. I liked this because it kept a little better leave and leaves almost nothing for Tim to do here.
>Timocracy: IILLOOO -5 +0 22
#note Exchange 5. Not actual rack.
>Johnny_Utah: ACDEILL 11A CADILLE +76 92
#note This is really embarassing because I always see CADILLE* first and only sometimess remember to look for CEDILLA. This time I genuinely thought CADILLE* was good. Oh well, the result would be the same even if I played the valid bingo.
>Timocracy: EEINORT A8 ERE.TION +149 171
#note Great find by Tim! This was going to be a hard game to win even if I play perfectly.
>Johnny_Utah: ABMOPRT 11I MOB +20 112
#note Second best play. D10 BITMAP for 30, although my play opens more which I really need. -3.
>Timocracy: ADNSY 12J SANDY +24 195
#note SANDY was also available at L11 but I understand Tim not wanting to open a triple triple.
>Johnny_Utah: AAPRTUV -3 +0 112
#note This was bad. No reason to exchange. VARIA, PURDA all fine enough plays although they close the board a little bit. I traded VAUP.
>Timocracy: EK 10A .KE +36 231
#note VARIA prevents this.
>Johnny_Utah: AAIRTUV -3 +0 112
#note The exchange didn't help at all. Exchange 3 -VAI keeping TARI.
>Timocracy: IOO E10 O.IO +4 235
>Johnny_Utah: AILORTT 13E .OT +4 116
#note ALIYOT was the play at N9. I have no clue why I did this. TAILR isn't all that as a leave.
>Timocracy: AEGIORT B2 GOATIER +72 307
#note Best play.
>Johnny_Utah: AFILRRT 14F FARL +30 146
#note First good play in a few turns. FILAR scores more in this spot but FARL gives less back. Not a lot of I's left in the pool either.
>Timocracy: EW 15G WE +27 334
>Johnny_Utah: FIRRSTV 4A F.RT +22 168
#note Not doing C3 FRIT even though it scores 30 because I am behind by so much and it closes lanes. I would do it though if the scores were reversed. This seems good to me.
>Timocracy: UW M10 WU. +7 341
>Johnny_Utah: EIIRSVY 5D IVY +20 188
#note Best play.
>Timocracy: Q 6A Q. +11 352
#note BOSH is a noun not a verb. I rejected this phony but would allow another phony in a few plays.
>Johnny_Utah: DEHIJRS -2 +0 188
#note Too focused on bingos to notice the 30 point scoring plays. Exchange H and J.
>Timocracy: ?BGHNOS 4F BOSHiNG +83 435
>Timocracy: ?BGHNOS -- -83 352
#note BOSH is a noun not a verb.
>Johnny_Utah: DEEIMRS J2 EMERIDS +68 256
>Johnny_Utah: DEEIMRS -- -68 188
#note Now I'm getting desperate. I mixed up EMETINS and EMEROIDS. It's just REMISED which doesn't play.
>Timocracy: ?BGHNOS B14 HO +22 374
#note I like BHOOT at C13 for Tim over this play.
>Johnny_Utah: DEEIMRS 9C ME +16 204
#note Why not C7 for one more point?
>Timocracy: BEG D13 BEG +14 388
>Johnny_Utah: ADEHIRS J2 DEHAIRS +71 275
#note I misevaluated this position here. I played vertically because I thought DEHAIRS offers more lanes for me to catch up, but AIRSHED makes a new 7 lane and scores 8 more. If I play vertically, I also need to play HARDIES for 75. -8.
>Timocracy: ??EGJNS 3F JEsS.iNG +82 470
#note I didn't even look. If I thought about this for 5 seconds, I would have realized JESSING is the only ING form of JESSE. There were no other playable bingos.
>Johnny_Utah: AAIOPRZ A1 ZA +36 311
#note L1 ZONA too but I thought that might give a big Z play back. Maybe worth the risk.
>Timocracy: IX H1 XI. +27 497
>Johnny_Utah: AIOPRTU C1 PAI. +20 331
#note Not a good endgame, but I wanted things over.
>Timocracy: ADLSTUV 5I V.ULT +16 513
>Johnny_Utah: ORTU N12 .OUR +14 345
#note I missed RUBATO at K9 for the out. I was 40 seconds over so I needed to move.
>Timocracy: ADS N5 SAD +15 528
#note J10 DOSAS for 33! I probably wouldn't have seen that. -18.
>Timocracy: (T) +2 530
#note Not good game but probably not a winnable either so if my mistakes have to come in a game it's best for it to be this one. I felt something was wrong when I was exchanging this much. That isn't something I normally do a ton. -10 on time. 530-335 it looks like.
