I think I missed ZINEB. (-3) #visionsmall

this plays with WISS #findingsmall

I think VI(R)TU is best here. #strategymedium

-4 to 14B PENT or PEEN but was trying to be as tricky as possible #endgamesmall

This is a bad play. N1 NOD has the best equity and, unlike CLONING, doesn't open a 3*3. I also missed CODLING? #strategymedium

Yes, I saw 14F GRIT. And then I saw KITING, and then I saw TIRING which undoubles my R's and saves the K for 14F, and meanwhile I forgot about GRIT. But I have to draw an A for 14F KA or else the sacrifice isn't worth it. Actually, the best plays are at L10: GYRI, RYKE, and KYRIE block row 14, and GYRI in particular saves the K for 14F and doesn't take any of the four unseen S's. #tacticsmedium

Despite that it scores best, Quackle hates WRECK, because it keeps AEU with a vowel-heavy pool; 12K EAU is best, saving WRECK for next turn. #strategymedium

15M FOU is worth the 12-point sacrifice because, again, the pool is vowel-heavy. #strategysmall

Quackle prefers DISCS by enough of a margin that I agree. No hooks, I bingo a ton with the S or through the I as a 2x2. #findingsmall

the most heartbreaking miss of the entire tournament. DISCIPLINES from DISC. And it's not like I didn't look. I was just thinking about DIS as a prefix. #findingsaddest

I super regretted this over WAX. Never considered that him overlapping FAX is significantly easier, even though it's easier for me too. Quackle thinks this is around a point worse. #tacticssmall

never saw TAV 11E, stupid and careless. #findingsmall

unsure of RESCRIPT, which is much better, but as always, my potentially disastrous mistakes do not end in disaster. Held and released. #knowledgemedium

this is fine, but just (C)RY is really nice much of the time, giving nothing tremendous back, and bingo-ing way more than CRYING. reduces opponent score by almost 10 immediately. Should have given it more thought. #strategysmall

this was wrong, point blank. I need to play BI N8. Realized I really want my A after hitting the clock. Too used to keeping QI over QA. I also know he didn't have an I last move, so maybe QUA G4 and hope he doesn't have the last A or some other big play? #strategymedium

saw a ridiculous amount of ghosts this endgame, most notable after D2 BEE, thinking that after (TE)MPT 5C, my outs were blocked and that my best was LI(T)U G3 which loses by 1 to uN(FAZED), until a recount would have tied the game up given my earlier misscore of TWeRKED. The worst part in all this isn't that I had misscored TWERKED, but that I missed that TEMPT gives me (M)ULIE E5 as an out. This endgame should have been clear as day to me and instead I just flushed 6 minutes down the drain and basically hoped (informedly) that this would be enough. -10 #endgamesaddest

A4 AURAE seems to have been missed. #findingsmall

out of time. Just dropping the Q is 3 better. #endgamesmall

KOEL is slightly better, quackle says it's slightly more defensive, plus the extra point. it's a tiny difference. -1 #tacticssmall

i spent too long on this play. i disagree with 13L HON. come on, man. i know i have a good leave for it, but who makes plays like that when up this much? however, NOH in that spot is probably better than my play. -4 #tacticsmedium

this is phony. even though it was unchallenged, it is still a large mistake; part of me thought it was good for some reason. the best play here is N2 BUGEYE. this turn could have gone much worse for me. -5 #knowledgelarge

a middling, bad move. i was not sure about PECHS, but MECHS is good too, at 6H. #knowledgemedium #findingmedium -7.5

i did see 2F JEE, but didn't like that i don't have one of the A's to front-hook it. i don't like it that much, idk. i think i would still do JIG any day unless someone convinces me otherwise. -4 #tacticssmall (if anything)

i'm making a ton of dinky plays this game. 13J SEME scores and keeps the F for scoring / outrunning. that's what i should be doing. #visionmedium #tacticsmedium -5

more dinky plays. quackle likes C7 FLEA to make it harder for him to bingo. #strategymedium -3.5

Don't think I saw F6 EON somehow. It scores 6 more than OGEE and bingos roughly the same amount, making it several points of valuation better. #findingsmall

N5 REAM is genius, setting up O7 HIE/ODAH/MI. HALIER is seven points worse if Chris plays his top move of OUTRANK/KNIT in response. #endgamemedium

totally didn't think of VOMITY. J6 FAY there might be better. #findingsmall #visionsmall

I missed a rare opportunity to play KAAS here, in the same spot. #findingsmall I'm not too worried about the C hook here, since The C is usually a word-starter and he only has 6 squares to play a word starting in C.

super conservative here in not playing WHAP, but I should have realized that WHA was better than WAP. I think I was a bit overloaded with options here. This is a bad play. #tacticsmedium

losing the wheels on the bus here. Missing G10 H(OW)F, but holding on to what I hope will be a closed board soon. Also missing 13I DASHI which is fine. #visionmedium #findingmedium

now I figure I can't play (REJECT)IONS because he just opened a 3x3, but I guess I can still play D(E)AF and save the 60 points for next turn. #tacticssmall

missing 14B GROS(Z) #visionsmall

I missed literally all of the bingos he could have at 14H. What the fuck was I doing this game? EMERITI, EUCRITE/ERUDITE, RETINUE. I need to block those, the best way is to play 14F (Z)OA which saves (REJECT)ABlE for next turn, which I at least saw. I just though that this didn't give anything back but it does, it gives back nITERIE too. #findinglarge #preendgamelarge

I should just play D8 EMOTED here -- it's equity and the board is already plenty open. DEEM does double the A-hook potential but without holding an A that's not too great. #tacticssad

1H ATOM wavered on MUT for some reason #knowledgesad

C9 VITAE #visionsaddest This is abject shitness. I forgot to look for the hook and just played a shitty shitty turn of scrabble. Terrible

Chickened out of FIGWORT and FROW #knowledgesaddest
