#note Maybe GOOP instead.
>Stefan_Kac: AHIU 14A HAI.U +24 76
>Noah: ?DEEHOO 1A HOO.ED +36 159
#note OH does pretty well here valuation-wise on the sim. DEEO? looks decent for 1A triple-triples. OUTEcHOED doesn't seem worth it.
>Stefan_Kac: IJN 3A JIN. +22 98
>Noah: ?EILSSW 15E SWIvELS +79 238
#note SWIpLES actually sims best here - perhaps the ply 1 Speedy plays give back more than they gain. There also could be "entropy-lowering" reasons to play SWIpLES.
>Stefan_Kac: ER 15A ER +23 121
#note Perhaps he played AR here, see note a bit later, on my AXON play.

#note It seems that either one of the plays I wrote down is wrong or we had a tile bag with a non-standard Scrabble distribution during the game; in particular, when Quackling, an extra A would seemingly need to replace an E for my scoresheet to be correct. My best guess is that he played ER rather than AR on his 5th turn. Perhaps my annotation will change in the future to reflect new information (e.g. if Stefan reports something about the game). As for the play, I'm pretty sure I had this, and mostly considered OX as an alternative, and thought the pool was DEELMTTVZ. We appear to have agreed to an overscore of 43 for AXON.
>Stefan_Kac: ADLMTTZ J10 ZA +36 277
>Noah: AERSV 3L RE +29 555
#note Thought about this move for a while. I think I played this as a "steal" and thought that some other play, maybe SER, was actually optimal, but post-play or post-game thought this actually seemed better than alternatives because after AXED I can play VAC + JAYVEES, not just VARS as I think I thought, though also, I seem to have written down on my scoresheet that VARS scores 14. Anyway, Champ ranks this play #1.
