It's a strong D setup and S setup in 1 move, but not exactly worth the 15 point sacrifice. I didn't see D4 DEFU(Z)E, which looks quite a bit stronger. #findingmedium
I do want to undouble my D here. There is deceptively not as much to score as it first looks. I think I3 DIDY looks stronger to score a couple more and FIL is actually not that bad a leave on this board since I can always reopen the bottom right with 12K plays with my F. #findingmedium
I think 12J ABIDE is a stronger play since I can still make a nice setup play while scoring more. My bingoes won't score as much next to BIDE should I even draw one. #strategymedium
This was a very interesting turn. Sim slightly prefers exchanging town to OT and/or exchanging down to ET to this -- I felt like keeping an O was necessary, and given the makeup of the bag, I wanted to keep an E for vowel/consonant balance. #tacticssmall
14B HIREE is best here according to sim. I just didn't want to give eric free points for overlaps, especially with such a dead board. I think I correctly deduced that playing QI (for equity) is wrong because it murders the board and leaves me in a 30-point hole that will be impossible to climb out of. #tacticssad
Maybe the most interesting position of the game. I (and macondo inference) agree that Eric is far likelier than usual to be holding an S or blank right now. With inference, sim gives eric an average of 12 (!!) points after QUA, compared to 40 and 50 for 13C QUIRES and 14B QUIRE respectively. But my predicted score next turn is now only 14. I need some 2000+ analysis of this position #strategysad
I don't love L(E)MUR after looking at this again. I think maybe 9K MOULD for the points is better than board shape when I'm only down a bingo. There's enough Es and As to hit stuff from the D in DEMEANS and that's just too many points to give up. I could also do M9 LUD if I wanted to set up my M, but I'm realistically gonna need more than just 20 points on average. Yea, MOULD it is. #findingmedium
I considered I6 VI(E)WY as well as my placement as well as exchanging. I wanted the right side of the board to be openable later on, so I eschewed the I6 placement while behind. F6 OW(L)Y sims better than I would have thought given I am keeping an ugly leave that I felt was more likely to lead to an exchange than playing VIEWY. Based on this, OWLY is probably better. #strategysmall
It's probably fine to just score as many as I can immediately even though I was given the 10J hotspot, which is conducive to my F. It's simming a little ahead of GOX. #strategysmall
3B OW seemed crazy. I can see why this could be a strategical oversight- G3 WO is 8 fewer points but my bingo % shoots up to 43% compared to just 13% after WITES. It still sims quite a bit ahead of WITES despite what might usually be a big difference in score. On the other hand, this isn't even that good of a board for bingoing besides the open T in PAINT. Other than that, I pretty much have to play a 9 or score like 61 with the S in AMNESIAS. Quackle has puts some 3A plays ahead of some Column G plays. #strategymedium?
