Re: Scrabble consensus game - Move 9
In terms of points, the largest I see is TUMBRIL at K2 or L2 for 22. There's also BRUT at L9 for 14, but that leaves glm. But I've never quite got the hang of evaluating board position, so I'm not even going to try.

TUMBRIL is an interesting idea, turning over 6 tiles (giving us a good shot at the last blank, which is our best chance of winning) while creating new bonus lanes. Of course Quackle may just close them down again, but if we force it to chase around the board defending then that at least gives us a chance to close the gap.

Tumbril at m2 maybe better as a spoiler.

Re: Scrabble consensus game - Move 9
Would have been nice to have played something like GL(I)B and get a nice M-R/OHM/KA-/VEER score, but we're too far behind for that.
So guess I'll vote for TUMBRIL in the K column.
