#note or OLEA(N)DER. Karl wasn't sure whiich to play, and neither am I really. I guess OLEANDER forks the scoring spots better. #tacticssmall
>Joshua_Sokol: AGIJNOQ 8A JIAO +41 121
#note felt wrong to leave the spot open. QAI(D) was so much more aggro. But the Q is terrible. But scoring spots are terrible. Waffles. #questionable
>Karl_Higby: OW 10E OW +28 90
>Joshua_Sokol: AGNNQTT G8 Q.T +30 151
#note missed Q(A)NAT in the same spot, which is technically better, but I thought it was unlikely he would be able to overlap on row 11 all the way #findingsmall
>Karl_Higby: ?AEENST 11A NEgATES +87 177
>Joshua_Sokol: AGNNOTT 12B NOTA +19 170
#note I might have to keep the vowel here for 6 fewer. TON looks best. #tacticssmall
>Karl_Higby: AFR G4 FAR +15 192
>Joshua_Sokol: DGHNOTY 13B GOTH +35 205
#note very lucky, DOTH might have been better equity, but the many plays it gives back at B10 are not worth it.
>Karl_Higby: ACK 6F C..AK +27 219
>Joshua_Sokol: DEFNORY K4 FRY +33 238
#note ding fries are done

>Karl_Higby: PTU 7M PUT +19 272
>Joshua_Sokol: EEIMNOU I5 E.U +17 315
#note could also play for points with 6N MU, but this seems worth it. #questionable
>Karl_Higby: IIIOOUU -IIIOOUU +0 272
>Joshua_Sokol: EIIMNOY L8 .OMINY +24 339
#note didn't think this was good, but I played it for some reason anyway. He was very close to challenging.
>Karl_Higby: II -II +0 272
#note I could have blown the game then and there, not sure what my reasoning is for doing this so consistently and knowing I might be doing it
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EEILMW 7B MEW +23 362
>Karl_Higby: AD 6N DA +18 290
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EHIILS K11 HI +22 384
#note or H(ENG)E, but I sometimes forget that's a word and HAGUE* is the British phony
>Karl_Higby: BEO M3 OBE +24 314
>Joshua_Sokol: ?CEILLS C5 CL... +7 391
#note missing SILICLE #knowledgelarge
>Karl_Higby: BRR J12 BRR +12 326
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EILPSS 15E SPILErS +79 470
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EILPSS -- -79 391
#note this was insane. I knew now that PITLESS* was invalid, so I could still play that at E1 confidently, have Karl probably go overtime as a result, or I could play tIPLESS which I'm sure of now, but not sure if UNGU(T)TED* is valid and possibly game-winning. Or I could know ZIPLESS, PIPLESS, HIPLESS, PINLESS or LIPLESS, none of which I am sure of. I don't want to allow GRUNTED though then he would be stuck with the Z as far as I saw. I can't remember what the word in EILPRSS is, LISPERS or SPILERS* or SLIPERS*. So I figure I'll have tIPLESS next turn, since he can't do anything about that spot, and maybe this is good and I get another turn, or maybe he doesn't challenge knowing he's losing?

Either way I'm blowing away tons of spread. Godfuckingdamnit
>Karl_Higby: UZ 5C .UZ +28 354
#note and I missed this!!!! This was catastrophic.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?EILPSS 15H PErILS +29 420
#note now I can just play LISPERS and lose if it's invalid! Sounds fun!

Better plays block from column M. I was pissed.
>Karl_Higby: DEGNRTU M12 GET. +27 381
