Found this like 1 minute into checking eos and it ended up being the best thing I had. Didn't check many EOs since those 3 movers were juiced.
Also had a 9+2 that led me to htr in 16 but the htr case was crap and ended up with slice in 25.
What a weird attempt. Don't know how I feel. I definitely think I missed something obvious because of the lack of EOs I checked.
Also amazingly consistent week for me.

blahhh should be happy but it's hard to feel enthused about a +16 lmao. 6qt required for optimal so whatever.
Also had an 11 to 4a1 4e but that was variation hell and didn't find anything better than this.

4a2 coming in clutch. Decided pretty early on to check rzps in 6 since the eos on this scram were awful. Had a 12 -> 2c3 4e and a 12 -> 4b2 4e. The 2c3 had my backup 27 which was sad.

I had 3 different 24s to slice but ofc the 2qt one is the only one that was +0. Go figure. Still don't feel satisfied, I left a lot not checked because i'm slow

I never get this case so I have no idea if this is the correct approach lol. Also had a 19 to 3e (non-slice) and couldn't find literally a single cancellation which is super inconvenient.

normally I'd be content with a 24 but pretty disappointed I didn't find anything off of an 8 move DR. Every HTR I found had a pretty crap finish so this ended up being the shortest thing I found. I also apparently had a 2c3 in 10 written down but couldn't get it to work?
