>New_Player_1: ABCEILT H4 CITABLE +78 78
#note I looking up extensions to this after the game. EXCITABLE, HYPEREXCITABLE, INCITABLE, OVEREXCITABLE, and UNEXCITABLE are all good. But change CITABLE to CITEABLE and there are zero extensions. Very weird.
>Quackle: EHIV 4H .HIVE +26 26
#note He blocked my monstrous bingo for 150, but it still plays in two spots. Unless ...

>New_Player_1: ?BIKTYZ J3 K.BbITZY +83 161
>New_Player_1: ?BIKTYZ -- -83 78
#note He held this for a long time. We both thought it was good. Finally, he challenged it, feeling like he couldn't win if it was good.
>Quackle: GU K4 .UG +14 40
#note And yet, knowing my full rack, he goofed up and didn't block the A.
>New_Player_1: ?BIKTYZ G5 BIZ +51 129
#note I had already determined that KYE was my best play, since I was sure he would block this.
>Quackle: ESTV M2 VEST +28 68
>New_Player_1: ?IKOTWY F4 WOK +42 171
#note At this point, he might have been better off letting KIbBITZY stay.
>Quackle: EPRS 2J PER.S +32 100
#note I don't know what his other tiles were, but PE for 28 seems like an improvement.
>New_Player_1: ?EINTUY 9B UNTImE.Y +66 237
>Quackle: FNR E8 F.RN +14 114
>New_Player_1: ADEEFHU 1H FEUD +31 268
>Quackle: AP 10B PA +22 136
#note Strange move. I waited half the game to hook onto ZA, he could have done it here and left the board more open.
>New_Player_1: ADEHLOQ 8A OH +23 291
#note I considered exchanging here, but figured the way my luck was going I would draw the last U or a blank. to bingo with the Q.
>Quackle: III -III +0 136
>New_Player_1: ?ADEILQ -Q +0 291
#note And look at that, I was right. Didn't feel like it was necessary to burn the blank for 55.
>Quackle: EMR C9 ..MER +14 150
>New_Player_1: ?ADEIIL 13A AI.fIELD +59 350
#note I somehow did not realize there was a bingo lane on the second row. Thought this was my only spot (aside from starting with a vowel next to the G or T).
>Quackle: ANN A12 N.NA +15 165
>New_Player_1: CEJLNOR 2F JOE +31 381
#note Now I notice the bingo lane, and decide to close it instead of playing JOW.
>Quackle: Y G2 .Y +9 174
>New_Player_1: ACLMNOR 12H ACORN +20 401
>Quackle: DEIORST 15A .STEROID +80 254
>New_Player_1: GLLMNOS I7 GO. +28 429
#note Finally got that ZA hook. Played this to prevent EX for 52.
>Quackle: AGO 11J GOA +17 271
>New_Player_1: LLMNQSW -LLMNQW +0 429
#note Especially now that MOWN was blocked, I prefered to throw this trash back and let Ed draw these tiles.
>Quackle: ADER 13J DEAR +21 292
>New_Player_1: AAEIOSX 1N AX +29 458
#note I was hoping he would fish off the D, so that I could play AXE at 13L, setting up my S as the last hook.
>Quackle: INQTU M7 QUINT +30 322
>New_Player_1: AEILMOS L8 MO +16 474
#note I realized that if I blocked WILT, and didn't give him a vowel, he wouldn't be able to go out. So I passed on MULE/AMUSE. I didn't even realize I was setting up AISLE. Was focused on AS/ZAGS.
>Quackle: LTW G9 .W +10 332
>New_Player_1: AEILS N6 AISLE +32 506
#note Ed was 2 minutes and change over.
>New_Player_1: (LT) +4 510
