>Noah: AACLORY 8G CALORY +30 30
#note Also considered COALY, keeping a better leave, opening fewer bingos, and allowing the possibility of COALYARD. Also considered ORACY, but less seriously. This was tricky, but I ended up slapping down CALORY. A little of me thought it might get a challenge. Q prefers the aforementioned 5-tile plays.
>Mark_Pistolese: DLMZ J7 M.LD +11 11
#note iirc Mark kept 4 consonants here, including a Z. He was tempted to "throw", but said he doesn't do it often.
>Noah: AAEFPUV L4 PEAV. +26 56
#note Not certain on the rack, but it feels right.
>Mark_Pistolese: ILLZ M3 ZILL +34 45
>Noah: AFUX N2 FAX +49 105
#note idk my leave here -- probably played this very quickly. Maybe ARTU.
>Mark_Pistolese: BY N6 BY +24 69
>Noah: AENORTU O7 OUTEARN +79 184
>Mark_Pistolese: AJNSTU 14J JUNTAS +66 135
>Noah: AGIO 15G AGIO +24 208
#note Maybe EIT here??
>Mark_Pistolese: ADEEI L10 AEDI.E +16 151
>Noah: AEIKOST 14A OAKIEST +78 286
>Mark_Pistolese: GNO A12 GO.N +21 172
#note He told me this rack after the game, I think he kept something like EETU or EOTU. I remember him having the U and GENT(O)O as an option.
>Noah: AGNPRTT O1 TAP +34 320
#note Pretty sure here.
>Mark_Pistolese: EFI 15A .EIF +28 200
>Noah: ??GNORT 12A .aROTiNG +70 390
#note sONGsTER is one more point.
>Mark_Pistolese: BETU 11D BUTE +23 223
>Noah: EIOQRUV B10 QU. +31 421
#note This seems right because I don't remember my leave being amazing and I remember thinking of VAQUERO.
>Mark_Pistolese: DOW 5I DOW.. +18 241
>Noah: EINORSV 4D ENVIROS +77 498
>Mark_Pistolese: IR E2 RI. +3 244
>Noah: CEEEHHN 3G HEH +39 537
#note I think this is the right rack. Quackle prefers EH N9 by about 30 for reasons I can't fathom. I think the solver is just being really loopy -- it gives EH a valuation of 31.7 despite endgame Champ I think giving no endgame a valuation of under 10 for Mark. Maybe it still has a point -- EH blocks WIDEST -- but the two plays feel closer to me.
