>Arie_Sinke: AAFLNOU 8D FAUNAL +26 26
#note Seems right; FAUNA scores two less and is hookable. FAUNA and FAUNAL have the same three letter front extensions (AVI and EPI.)

>Stephen_Schwitzer: IORSV E7 S.VIOR +18 18
>Arie_Sinke: AEEIMOT 9G EMO +17 43
#note Not sure what to do here; no option is inspiring. Sim suggests OES 7C, and I can certainly see some merit in that; scoring 9 to leave AEIMT doesn't seem great, but it should bingo 49% of the time (as opposed to 23% after EMO.) This seemed like the sort of play Quackle would make, and I know I have a penchant for undervaluing vowel-heavy bingo leaves, so I thought I'd give it a try. AEIT would be better with more consonant floaters - with this play I block two of the three available to me. It's not a terrible play, sims only three behind OES.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: GRZ 10C GR.Z +34 52
>Arie_Sinke: AEIOOTY C10 .OOEY +18 61
#note This looks right.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: ?ADIOPS J9 SPArOID +73 125
>Arie_Sinke: AAAHILT 15J .AHLIA +42 103
#note This looks correct.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: AETW B12 TWAE +31 156
>Arie_Sinke: ABEFMNT A13 AFT +39 142
#note EFT may be a marginal improvement. The A is a better tile than usual because there are only two As unseen.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: EW K10 EW +24 180
>Arie_Sinke: BDEEMNX 13I B.XED +36 178
#note Looks correct.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: EIJRU M8 JURIE. +15 195
>Arie_Sinke: EEMNNNS 12L N.EM +22 200
#note This looks like the best I can do.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: IN 8M .IN +30 225
>Arie_Sinke: EEENNRS N7 N.NE +12 212
#note Quackle suggests NEB I11. I'm not so sure; although the N makes the EERS leave marginally more likely to bingo, the D is a key tile on this board because of DJIN, and I would like to draw it. I also was hoping for an H draw for RESH D12 for 47. Leaves like EENRS are less valuable on a closed board, and I think Stephen is likely to play defensively here, which devalues the leave further. At any rate, both plays are reasonable. I considered doing NEB or even RES D12 for 31, which Quackle doesn't like as much.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: HSY 13E SHY +23 248
>Arie_Sinke: ?EEIRSV L2 REVISEd +78 290
#note EVERSIoN O1 for 84 is a slightly better play that I missed.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: EGIR D4 GRIE. +20 268
>Arie_Sinke: AACLOTU 2J CO.AL +26 316
#note This isn't great; COTEAU 3I looks slightly better. Scores 4 less but keeps a better leave and blocks more.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: BDI K5 BID +25 293
>Arie_Sinke: AIKOTTU 1M KAT +29 345
#note J5 OK didn't occur to me; clearly a better play for 9 more points.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: CEGLOPT 3K D.P +33 326
>Stephen_Schwitzer: CEGLOPT -- -33 293
>Arie_Sinke: INORTTU 3K R.T +22 367
#note NET may be better???
>Stephen_Schwitzer: CEGLOPT 6J C.. +11 304
>Arie_Sinke: INOOQTU 5A QUI.T +28 395
#note This isn't great, as it leaves only one out, NOON O4, which is blockable. I should play QUINONE G3 and assure that I can go out next turn.
>Stephen_Schwitzer: DEGLPTU 4D .ULPED +13 317
>Arie_Sinke: NOO 3G ONO +16 411
