>Jackson: BDGIJLO H7 JOG +22 22
#note this should be JIG, kind of obviously, to make harder parallels for him and to keep the O for me... BDIL may be slightly better in general but not by that much.
>Sid: CEIOTTY -CEIO +0 0
>Jackson: ?BDEILL 8D BILL.wED +63 85
#note BOLLIXED is also a word fyi
>Sid: CNORT E4 CORT.N +16 16
>Jackson: AIQRSUV 10H SUQ +44 129
#note over quasi for ED defense
>Sid: IOTU J10 .UOIT +16 32
>Jackson: AEHIRVY 4C VI.HY +32 161
#note I didn't see ARCHIVE, which I think is better. Especially if he keeps an S with QUOIT, it's nice to have a better scoring spot to counter, and I can start exhausting the top right.
>Sid: AADEIOR 3G AERADIO +76 108
>Jackson: AEEENRY 2J YEA +32 193
#note wasn't sure between EYE and YEA. I figured Quack would like EYE a bit better overall, cause AENR is quite an improvement, but with my lead and all it's nice giving an R hook that I can hit myself to outscore. However, YEA isn't so much better for bingo defense cause ER only meaningfully takes an S for bingoes. EYE is probably fine here, especially cause I can get the 1 row for scoring plays, even if it's annoying to have to worry about SER. I don't think YEA is necessarily wrong though

#note FADS is standard, but it blocks OLEANDERS which may come in handy later. Not sure
>Sid: EX G12 EX +37 299

#note fuck missed ZAIDA
>Sid: ENO 3A ONE +20 319
>Jackson: AEMNPST 14L AMP +29 359
#note I think this is the call... I don't even mind if he blocks
>Sid: LO I6 LO. +13 332
>Jackson: EFNSTVW O12 VEST +41 400
#note This was a big oversight, and I think I misinterpreted the pool here. I should be playing W(AI)F, which I missed, but the play I considered, FEW, is also probably better. the pool is really not very good for hitting the O column, even if he has a blank and all, whereas he's much more likely to hit the 5 row. He also can't really score easily with AMPS with a non-bingo play, since there's no S or good tiles for ending after the S. I did realize this by looking at the pool, but not to the extent to which it seems true, so that I'm not running a huge risk of being bingoed on after WAIF (or other blocks up there). VEST does outrun 5 row bingoes a fair amount, since his bingoes leave 6 in the bag and about tie the game, which is pretty good for my endgame timing, but I think I can run into too many problems with clunky racks that I can lose that way.
