#note definitely thought this was valid. 1/4

#note 4G H(Y)AENA is miles better than anything here #findinglarge
>Noah_Kalus: EGGIORT 9A GOITER..G +64 90
#note 2/4. Had I stopped to think about how GOITRING* is invalid, I would have had no issue challenging this. Perhaps I should hold more often.
>Josh_Sokol: EEEENPT I2 PEE +12 109
#note #knowledgelarge for GOITERING*

I thought this was a decent try, considering there were already 7 E's in play and 3/4 of tiles unseen. He's still at like 41% to have an E though. I should probably just play E7 TE(E)PEE and brace. Thought there was a chance Noah would miss EPEE? But he's a young player, why would he miss that? #questionable
>Noah_Kalus: CDEILNU 1C INCLUDE +89 179
#note "it must be my birthday"

#note I am most angry at this one. I honestly tried really really hard to see Pe(G)BOX but something in my brain just wouldn't process it. I can't see BOX words, I can't see some ING words, and I just feel like I never will. I literally stared at the -GBOX extension for many many seconds. After I made my play, I saw it, so maybe there's some slim chance I will start seeing more of these things. Until then, #findingsaddest
>Noah_Kalus: H 10B H. +26 255
>Josh_Sokol: AKPRT -PAK +0 301
#note had two more consos here, he blocked K(E)A(S) and I had no good plays afaik, was also going for OUTBOXING
>Noah_Kalus: DFI J1 DIF +32 287
>Josh_Sokol: AARSSTV 12C .AV +12 313
#note I think this is what it was? Honestly not too much wrong with VA(T)S, trying to overexploit I think #questionable
>Noah_Kalus: ADM 2A MAD +15 302
#note said he had his next play with a blank but didn't want to spend it, but setting it up made it potentially worth it. Kid's got chops
>Josh_Sokol: ABORSST K2 STOB +23 336
#note just BOXINGS is pretty good I guess. This is really bad. Maybe was trying to bait a challenge? #strategylarge
>Noah_Kalus: NU 1A UN........ +56 358
#note I never considered that this might not be valid.
>Josh_Sokol: AEJPRST L4 RAJ +28 364
#note #knowledgelarge for UNINCLUDED*, 3/4
>Noah_Kalus: DIOORUY M5 YO +22 380
>Josh_Sokol: EEENPST 11H STEEPEN +80 444
#note I did think this was better than 11H, but again I still thought YEELING* was valid. If he doesn't have a good comeback he might challenge YEELINGS*. #questionable
>Noah_Kalus: ?ADEIKR O5 DAIKERs +92 472
#note Type a note here!

>Josh_Sokol: IOOORUU 10H .IRO +17 461
#note well damn, was still maybe winning this game somehow until this. Thought I had some idea of drawing like AT and surprising him in the endgame with N6 TOO, or drawing both vowels and eking it out that way?
>Noah_Kalus: ACLLRTV M10 V.LAR +16 488
#note ultimately I gave Noah his turn back here, since I had no more tricks up my sleeve and thought this could have been phony somehow
>Josh_Sokol: OOOUUW - +0 461
#note -27 #endgamesaddest
