Recently, I thought my cable television was broken. All I saw on the screen
was the "food channel.' After a while, I realized it was a package of fish
sticks that I had left in the microwave.
Fun was had by all.

John, Jason and all--
This morning, with my Quackle set to Collins07 Championship Player, I
was given an opening rack of EEHRSTW. Seeing WETHERS immediately I clicked on
the Choices option to see if there were other bingos. After the WETHERS first
choice, several placements of WERTHES were given. Since I did not know the
word I opened my Collins Scrabble Words to look for related words. To my
surprise, WERTHES was not listed. To make sure it was not some weird anomaly,
I later set Quackle for human play, and gave my first rack as EEHRSTW. I got
the same result.
Is this a glitch in the program? Are there other phonies in the
Quackle Collins lexicon? Inquiring tilepushers want to know.
Stu,
Perhaps you were misreading. The 2 anagrams of that rack are WETHERS and
WRETHES. I just checked using my copy of Quackle 0.95, and those were the two
words it gave as choices. Can you check again and make sure you weren't just
misreading? If it still gives you a phoney as one of the choices, then it may
be bug in your version (it always helps to quote the version number you're
using).
