Are Quackle's tile values different from Maven's?
Are Quackle's tile values different for the different lexica?
In a brief discussion on this subject on UK-S a while ago, I was told
that the difference made to the tile values by a change of lexicon was
very minor - in the region of 0.05. I think it was Ev who said that.
I was pleased to see that the Maven and Quackle sims were very close
in results. My main point was to show that the Quackle estimates were
less reliable than simming.
Still a little puzzled by the 7 point difference in sims for that 10th
move though.
