#note was playing this game for 2nd place. Matthew and Karl Higby were playing for 1st, they both had a lot higher spread.
>Joshua_Sokol: DEEILOT G7 O.E +8 8
#note 9G OE sims better by around a point. I think this is probably better.

Oh, that's without inference. Deen overdrew and I turned over NT?, so I knew he had NT. With the inference not much changes. Actually, Quackle favours OE even more, saying it reduces his bingo chances by almost 7%. I was thinking that this wasn't giving Deen any hooks that I knew of, but I guess he can still have other letters, and interfering more with the O and G is good. #questionable
>Deen_Hergott: AENPT I6 PA.E +9 23
>Joshua_Sokol: DEIIILT 6G LI.ID +17 25
#note French confusion struck here and I wasn't sure if LIPIDE was valid. LIPID might be the best play, but only if you know LIPIDE.
>Deen_Hergott: INTX 5J XI +33 56
>Joshua_Sokol: EFIJOOT 4K FOO +19 44
#note maybe OFT F9 to set up the J in a way that won't open the board dangerously. But OFT also has its board dynamics issues, namely strengthening a lot of 7s since they will play on the E column and not open a lot of stuff like a J column and F column bingo, also a 10 row bingo, would open now. #questionable

#note missing DEAF in the same spot #findingsmall

>Joshua_Sokol: AAEEMOY O3 AY +26 255
#note O13 MOA or MAE or MAY are the top-simming plays. 3L MY(N)A is probably the option I would have chosen if I had seen it. OY or YO are also possible in this spot. #questionable
>Deen_Hergott: AEU O13 EAU +15 234
>Joshua_Sokol: AEEMNOO 15L MEO. +9 264
#note 2J MOO is just too many points. #strategymedium

>Joshua_Sokol: ?AAENOT J1 O.A +5 269
#note this looks potentially pretty stupid compared to ANOA. #strategylarge

#note totally missing COU(V)ADE which I saw instantly today. Interesting that I'm patting myself on the back for an error I made. I guess people (never) change #findingsaddest
>Deen_Hergott: ADKRTUV 1G ARV. +21 305
>Joshua_Sokol: AGKLOSU 15F SKOAL +31 402
#note SOAK maybe better, one spot to the left. Actually, SKAG seems best, should keep two vowels. #questionable
>Deen_Hergott: Q 8L Q. +21 326
>Joshua_Sokol: EGHLTTU 11E HUG +28 430
#note 18 points off of HET because blocking the 2 row costs Deen dearly. HET follows a very complicated out-in-5 sequence according to Quackle. #endgamesaddest
>Deen_Hergott: DGNNRSY 2D DRYS +18 344
#note to be fair neither of us saw the plays on the 9 row and everything else is insanely complicated
>Joshua_Sokol: ELTT D2 .ELT +10 440
#note same insane sequence of blocking G(E)N(E) or N(E)N(E) or G(IFs) with just (E)L for 2... -2
>Deen_Hergott: GNN J10 G... +11 355
>Joshua_Sokol: T O1 .T.. +9 449
#note had I gotten the (D)ELT turn right this endgame would have been equivalent to the HET one.
>Joshua_Sokol: (NN) +4 453
