This Scrabble endgame requires ABSOLUTE PERFECTION to win

[@QQyoko]

These videos always hit right near the end of my work day. Way better way to finish out my hours listening to elite Scrabble content than slogging through emails without anything keeping me company!

[@mackmeller]

Haha awesome, thanks for your support!

[@davidlim2806]

This board has a surprisingly large number of words that I know

The elephant in the room is why did Seth empty the bag.

[@axcertypo]

he didn't know obvs

[@mackmeller]

Yeah, he regretted this after -- he presumably forgot to check or miscounted

[@justin_tang]

The slightly smaller elephant in the room is DURRY# staying on the board!

Love the endgame series and found one of the play for the first time as a noob (pin). Please keep sharing these kind of interesting endgame or pre-endgame analysis. Also, these kind of game leaves me thinking about whether correspondence scrabble is a thing. It allows play to think very deeply and try their best to come up with plays like these. Maybe it will not be as competitive as tournament scrabble. But I think having training games like these might be very interesting and educational.

It was widely played in the 1980s/1990s but I don’t know of anyone doing it now

[@craiglarimer1173]

Incredible insights by Mack. Agree with the comment about Seth emptying bag - didn’t make sense.

[@mackmeller]

Thanks! Yeah, he presumably forgot to check or miscounted

[@asdfasdf4924]

Mind. Blown.

[@AlexDings]

Did you change something about the audio? There seems to be a little less reverb here which is very pleasant

[@mackmeller]

Tbh I didn't, but I'm glad to hear!

[@nautilus269]

Put miseries in a sentence, in a casual context.

[@mackmeller]

Many miseries befell Odysseus as he fought his way through a 10-year ordeal to return home to Ithaca following the war in Troy.

[@nautilus269]

@@mackmeller That was too easy, I know. What about QUAINTNESSES, and LOURERER* in a casual non Scrabble related sentence? I'm gradually improving my pronounciation* of this phony.
