>JoshuaSokol: DENNORU H4 DUNNO +16 16
#note the first two moves of this game (and this tournament) are extremely unbecoming of someone who should be winning tournaments. I thought this was still not a word and I was getting off on a good foot by phonying on purpose.
>SharmaineFarini: DEGLOTU G8 GLOUTED +64 64
#note and the karma struck instantly. I knew GLOUTER* was no good, but couldn't remember GLOUTED or GLOUTING, knowing GROUTED, GROUTING and GROUTER pretty well. Figured I would go with my gut. My gut was wrong. #knowledgeSADDEST
>JoshuaSokol: A A1 +0 16
#note #unsuccessful-challenge
>SharmaineFarini: AFN H13 FAN +26 90
>JoshuaSokol: DEEIKPR 5E PER.KED +56 72
#note had to process extreme tilt of losing a challenge, knowing she couldn't have forgone FAX last turn, and getting X-bombed anyway.
>SharmaineFarini: AX 6E AX +54 144
>JoshuaSokol: ABEHINS 4A BANISHE. +104 176
#note I tanked for a bit, not as much as Cesar would have, and then finally found this.
>SharmaineFarini: AEMUY 3B YUM +29 173
>JoshuaSokol: DEEINOZ A4 .IZONE +51 227
#note somewhat happy but also not that she blocked the undeserved EBONIZED.
>SharmaineFarini: AEILNST D6 SALIENT +76 249
>JoshuaSokol: DEGIRRR 2A GRR +23 250
>SharmaineFarini: CEIV 10F V.ICE +20 269
>JoshuaSokol: ADEIQRR K8 QADI +40 290
>SharmaineFarini: IO L7 OI +15 284
>JoshuaSokol: BEELRRT B9 TREBLE +22 312
#note uh oh... Felt I needed to block this line that didn't set up anything new instead of blocking the M column, in the hopes her bingo didn't start with S or end in ES or something. #questionable
>SharmaineFarini: IO A14 OI +8 292
>JoshuaSokol: CFLPRUV M4 CURF +22 334
#note scared for my life. Hoping she doesn't know or misses SCURF.
>SharmaineFarini: EW 6J WE +29 321
>JoshuaSokol: GLOPRVY 14G ..VY +19 353
#note blocking the marginal but dangerous N in FAN.
>SharmaineFarini: ?EHIMSS 12I MESH +33 354
#note extremely lucky that she chickened out of MASHIES and missed MESSIAH
>JoshuaSokol: ?AGLOPR 3I PROGs +38 391
#note now my position is pretty good, but it's not over
>SharmaineFarini: IW 12D .WI. +7 361
>JoshuaSokol: AAEJLOO 9K .LAE +8 399
#note blocks everything. I first considered AE 13L but that doesn't block ETATIST. It looks complicated after an A draw, but I think I win no matter what. Quackle gets the endgame wrong of course, thinking she can secure a draw with B6 AI, but I can win easily after that.
>SharmaineFarini: ?AAISTT 15J ATTAIn +23 384
>JoshuaSokol: AJOOT 2F JATO +31 430
