In doing post-mortem of a recent game, I had a problem at
the end of the game.  Couldn't get Quackle to accept that
the game wasn't over, and that one more play remained to
be made.  Specific situation:

With 7 tiles in the bag, my opponent played a bingo, took
those last 7 tiles ('DEIJPST').  My rack was 'EGIORRX' and
I played ERRI(N)G around an N, keeping 'OX' for my final
play.  Opponent played JEST(E)D around an E, leaving 'IP'
on his rack.

What I want to do at this point is specify that my last 2
tiles are 'OX' and see if I found the highest-scoring way
to play those tiles.  Unfortunately, what happened was that
Quackle decided the game was over as soon as JEST(E)D was
Commit-ted to the board, did a quick "2*(IOPX)" -- merging
my last 2 tiles & my opponent's last 2 tiles -- and
announced the final score of the game!

Have I missed something?  If you need the complete game
transcript, I'll send it along.

Thanks,
John Hart
