OK, so this is like using a machine gun on an ant, but ... what is the
easiest way to find the highest-scoring move with a given rack and board using
Quackle?
I'm asking because of a variation on Taxes Hold Me that I'm working on
("Elyria Rules" Taxes Hold Me). It's Texas Hold 'Em with Scrabble tiles instead
of
cards. In this version, the highest scoring word gets added to a Scrabble
board (in addition to winning the pot). Also, just as in poker "the cards
speak
for themselves," here "the tiles speak for themselves" -- with Quackle's
help.
But it can be frustrating to find the highest-scoring move, as it often is
not near the best play as judged by the speedy player -- especially if it uses
strong tiles or leaves multiples on a rack.
I've tried copying all moves into a spreadsheet so I can sort. But even when
all moves are highlighted, a control-C just grabs one cell to be copied, not
all the highlighted cells.
I've also tried clicking on the column headers, as that sorts by that column
in many apps. But not in this one ...
If there is no better way than looking through all possible scores, so be
it. But then please consider the preceding two paragraphs to be feature
requests
:-).
Thanks,
Dan
