Marut Siriwangso (THA) came to my desk to tell me about a fun game with Manop Phiphatboonserm (THA), where he made a seven-tile overlap of MANATIS next to an eight-letter play, and the game came down to a matter of which player got to bingo out. He said he's email me a photo he took of the final board; I'll post it when I see it.
