#note UNVEXT might be worse points and leave, but it's simply more thematic. I should be closing the board, not trying to bingo with a far superior range.

#note I don't know. It's not like I didn't see the options. This is probably just too much respect. Yes, there are all sorts of real problems that come from sacrificing 11 or 13 here. There are setups opponent can make that are devastating. Still, you're a smart person: you can preemptively block setups and your opponent still has to burn a turn to make those setups, whereas the jokers after ENDWiSE are brutal right now. Don't assume every player is 2100 rated, and even if they are this still probably isn't a good idea.

#note So this is just stupid. I had 10 minutes left on tracking, and was off by about 6 tiles, and tracked there was an I left in the bag. So I considered options including CONIC, played ONTIC and then said to myself "I'll figure out the tracking on my opponent's clock" and played it. Thing is, it's really not that time consuming to track. So of course one of them is an I, and that makes this play just absolutely horrible, because I'm too stupid to simply burn a whole minute to correct my tracking. I get this game doesn't matter, and this is much smaller than other errors, but still this is just me making every error under the sun this tournament, and if I'm gonna be the best player at the tournament, stupid executional errors like this absolutely have to be out.

#note CAROLI is a it bttter, giving up fewer 8s. It doesn't matter, but again, saw it right after I hit my clock, just stupid executional errors.
