>Chris_Grubb: GHILLNU 8D HULLING +80 80
#note CoCo Seattle Scrabble tournament round 12
>Alec: AEGIPRW 9C WIG +19 19
#note WIG is tied with D4 WEIGH for the best equity. Quackle prefers J6 WIGGA#, which I didn't know, and for which I don't know how to argue. #questionable
>Chris_Grubb: AEHP 10C EPHA +31 111
>Alec: AAEEIPR D8 ...PIE +26 45
>Chris_Grubb: DENORTU 13C D.UTERON +72 183
>Alec: AAAEIRS H12 A.IA +15 60
>Chris_Grubb: ACEIRST K9 ATRESIC +78 261
>Alec: AEEEIRS 15K .ERIA +24 84

>Alec: AEERSYZ 11B ZE.S +52 136
>Alec: ACEEMRY (challenge) +5 141
#note J6 ZYGA# has the best equity and saves the S for column B making SWIG, at the cost of making column L harder to hit. Quackle prefers it slightly over ZEPS, but not over ZEPS +5 (Chris challenged UGHS). #strategysmall
>Chris_Grubb: ?FMNOST L3 FaNTOMS +80 363
>Alec: ACEEMRY M2 CYMAE +47 188
>Chris_Grubb: OOOOO -OOOOO +0 363
>Alec: EFILRRY N6 FIRRY +41 229
#note FIRRY has the best equity. N6 FERLY has the highest valuation, because it saves the R for HIPPIER? #questionable
>Chris_Grubb: GUV J6 VU.G +21 384
>Alec: DEEILNW 12K .NDEW +26 255
#note Quackle likes 12H AWEEL#, the second-highest-scoring play, which compensates for the 3-point sacrifice by setting up 14H INDIE. #findingsmall
>Chris_Grubb: AKLNX G12 L.KA +18 402
>Chris_Grubb: AKLNX -- -18 384
#note I don't remember our postgame discussion, but I think there was more to this play than just misspelling LEAK.
>Alec: ?ADEILO F1 kELOIDA. +64 319
>Chris_Grubb: AKLNX 4B KLAX.N +34 418
>Alec: EOTTTUV E2 TE.T +30 349
#note Quackle prefers C2 VOLUTE, which has the best equity but sacrifices 10 points and sets up EVOLUTE on row 1. I think TEXT would be best if I assume I get the S because it blocks 1D JOkER and similar plays, but VOLUTE gives me a higher chance to draw the S and sets up an alternate scoring spot at 1A in case Chris has the S and plays with KLAXONS (although I would have to draw an E, another vowel, and, ideally, a B or J). #questionable
>Chris_Grubb: ABJNOS B6 JOBS +37 455
#note Chris chickened out of O1 BANJOS, thinking it might only be BANJOES, and missed H1 JOBS/KLAXONS.
>Alec: EIOOTUV 8L .I.V +27 376
#note MIRV# is the highest-scoring play. The best play by 2 points is 14A VOE, blocking 14B BORNA# and other words making HIPPIER. If I draw the N after VOE, I am rewarded with 4I TIN(aM)OU! #tacticssmall
>Chris_Grubb: ABDNOOR C3 B.OOD +34 489
#note 14B BORNA# is best. (-11)
>Alec: EEOOTU A7 TO +22 398
>Chris_Grubb: ANR 14E RAN. +14 503
>Chris_Grubb: (EEOU) +8 511
