>skaplan31: BGMRTUX - +0 0
#note Rd 1 Philly virtual 3-28-2021. I'm 2nd.
>hellacia: ADEHLNT 8D HANDLE +28 28
#note Several plays are reasonable along with HANDLE- DALETH, HALTED, and HANTED. I might have done HALTED just because HANDLE takes too many hooks.
>skaplan31: BGMRTUX J7 BRUX +40 40
#note My scoring options would have been not too good after HALTED. I would have done D4 BRUGH instead. I got lucky to survive clunk for this turn.
>hellacia: AAGOSTW 9C WAG +19 47
#note F4 GOWAN does sim best, but I'd make Robin's play any day if she has an S.
>skaplan31: ?BFGIMT 9I F.G +20 60
#note Very close between doing this, 9I FUB, K9 MIB, or 9I MUFTI. My goal was to set up more than 1 hook in 1 move as well as keep something that will allow me to bingo ASAP. Robin is reasonably likely to be keeping an S after WAG.
>hellacia: AAELOST 10B TOEA +21 68
#note This or 7D ALOE are fine.
>skaplan31: ?ABIMQT 7B QAT +20 80
#note L8 QuBIT is slightly preferred over this, but worst case if I don't bingo next turn, I can at least do 8A BI as a backup plan. 11A QAT just gives Robin a nice scoring spot for no reason.
>hellacia: ADFLNNS -ADFNN +0 68
#note Her scoring options suck, but let's be honest, the S isn't super useful on this board besides the FUGS hook. 11A FAN is 14 but she could very well be screwed for a few turns.
>skaplan31: ?BIIMOU L4 nIOBIUM +80 160
#note Only bingo. Glad I saw this one.
>hellacia: AHIKLRS K2 HAIK +35 103
>skaplan31: ?EEEILM M10 MELEE +20 180
#note Looked for -MEN bingoes, and F1 LIEgEME(N) is the only bingo that plays for 67 which I missed. 3 Es is annoying sometimes. Maybe M9 EME for 22 is a better move than this if I'm gonna miss the bingo? Don't miss hooks. #visionmeh
>hellacia: EELRRSS 15M SER +17 120
#note 6K SORE would have really put me in a world of hurt.
>skaplan31: ?AEIJOR F6 JA.E +35 215
#note If she had done 6K SORE, I would have done O6 RIOJA. Then, she gets to use her other S which she's telegraphing to potentially cut some deficit.
>hellacia: EELNORS L12 EON +14 134
>skaplan31: ?IORSTY H1 nITROSY. +83 298
#note G2 ThYROI(D)S would have been sick vision. That is 2 more than my move which is the 2nd highest bingo. I did not see the only 9 that plays, 14E STORYlI(NE), which would have been a contender in last weekend's HOPPY tourney for flashiest bingo, but definitely incorrect.
>hellacia: CELNPRS 2G P.NC.ERS +42 176
#note That is a nice #visionsolid move on her end.
>skaplan31: EEINOTZ 14J ZO.. +33 331
#note Looked for some time just to make sure I wasn't missing any bingoes, and this scores the most.
>hellacia: ELORRTV 11E ROVE +24 200
>skaplan31: EEIINTT 8A TI +17 348
#note Considered 4B TENTIER and H10 TENTIE to go thru more tiles while ahead, and shorter plays to go for bingoes. Since I'm not opening up anything new for Robin and I keep better while doing so, let's go for bingoes.
>hellacia: DILORTV H10 R.VOLT +39 239
>skaplan31: EEINTUW 1L WEET +46 394
#note I guess let's outrun now without bingoing.
>hellacia: ACDFINP M6 FID +21 260
>skaplan31: ADINUUY 14J ....D +36 430
>hellacia: ACINOPS 13G C.P +13 273
>skaplan31: ADINUUY C9 ..UND +18 448
>hellacia: AAIINOS 15H .IAN +17 290
>skaplan31: AGILNUY 12A YA.G +24 472
#note Maybe 4D GLAIRY would have guaranteed me an out play in 2 spots?
>hellacia: AIOS 12G A.O +18 308
#note I think she did that because she missed my out play of 3D UNLIT. If she's gonna miss my out play, 6K SOFA was better for her.
>skaplan31: ILNU 3D UNLI. +11 483
#note All righty, while I wasn't losing this game, MELEE was too aggressive of a play which could have turned out worse than it was. Definitely glad to see my 2 chemistry bingoes which effectively put the game out of reach.
>skaplan31: (IS) +4 487
