#9 "SQUALENE"


totals: UNKNOWN

this game's exact point totals have unfortunately been lost, but the lack of details should in no way take away from the fact that lu pulled a stunning victory over lo. the new and exciting word "SQUALENE" (an oily liquid hydrocarbon that occurs in shark liver oil and human sebum (!)) was crucial to his win, but it would be foolish to underestimate the importance of lu's many food-related words: "CUMIN", "SOY", "MISO", and so on. lo put up a good fight, but words like "DUO" and "LOIN" were simply no match for lu's arsenal of food- and shark liver oil-related words.

lu also defeated lo in another game weekend; however, as the game took place in a cafe far away in iowa city, we had no way of documenting the board.
