>Caleb_Pittman: EEEIPSU H8 EPEE +12 12
#note I've played Chris 3 times in my life. The first time, he beat me by 255. The third time, he beat me by 234. This game is the second time I played him.

I should have exchanged some vowels here.
>Christopher_Sykes: ERR I9 ERR +13 13
>Caleb_Pittman: IRSSTTU J7 TUT +8 20
#note J8 UTS is better (shout out to my alma mater, the University of Toronto Schools)
>Christopher_Sykes: AELNR 8J .NREAL +21 34
#note He spent a while on this turn
>Caleb_Pittman: EIORSSV L8 .EVISORS +74 94
#note I'd seen this rack before, and thought SERVOIS was the 7 here- it was VIROSES.

Of all the bingos I could have played, this was the worst. But a bingo's a bingo.
>Christopher_Sykes: EGMNO 15G GNOME. +27 61
>Caleb_Pittman: ?ELPTYZ 13J ZL.TY +34 128
#note Best
>Christopher_Sykes: DGL 11K G.LD +12 73
>Caleb_Pittman: ?AEINOP 12B EPINAOs +72 200
#note This is my favourite Scrabble word, and this is the first time I've ever gotten it down. At this point, I was just shocked that I was up 130 on a 1900 rated player (I am a 918)
>Christopher_Sykes: ACDLR B10 CR.DAL +30 103
>Caleb_Pittman: ADIV 14D DIVA +19 219
#note Still surprised to be leading, so I forgot to track for a few turns.
>Christopher_Sykes: HSY O13 SHY +45 148
#note I would basically never challenge anything that Chris plays. Of course ZLOTY takes an S at the end! I let this slide, and it's good that I did.
>Caleb_Pittman: BBU 11D BUB +26 245
>Christopher_Sykes: IJO N6 JI.O +27 175
>Caleb_Pittman: ACEGHST A14 HE +26 271
#note Leave is kind of gross, but it scores decently well
>Christopher_Sykes: IIKW I4 KIWI +15 190
>Caleb_Pittman: ACGOSTW H3 COG +17 288
#note Saw H1 TACO, but I'm not giving him any extra room.
>Christopher_Sykes: AI 6M A.I +10 200
>Caleb_Pittman: AAANSTW 14N A. +20 308
#note 12N AA is sneaky
>Christopher_Sykes: ?ADEINU 8A AUDIENc. +77 277
#note Only bingo, nice
>Caleb_Pittman: AAINSTW J3 WAT +17 325
#note Sims pretty well. Didn't see anything in the top left
>Christopher_Sykes: MORTU 2J TUMOR +27 304
>Caleb_Pittman: AEFINOS C4 FIEN. +10 335
#note This guarantees an out in 2, which I was happy with. There are way better ways to go out in 2, though.
>Christopher_Sykes: EFNOQTX 3L OXEN +46 350
#note Clearly best
>Caleb_Pittman: AOS 4A OA.S +16 351
#note Best out
>Caleb_Pittman: (FQT) +30 381
#note I've been bragging to everybody I know about this win. I don't think I'll ever live this down. Got very lucky to win, of course, but this just goes to show that anything can happen in Scrabble.
