The game falls apart if it gives you 9 tiles. Sometimes it had
credited my next play to the robot, then told me I haven't put down
any tiles, won't let me put down any tiles, and I just throw in the
towel and start a new game.
I beat that bastard robot by 149 pts yesterday, though. The trick is
to stay ahead of the robot, because if it gets ahead, it closes up the
board so tightly, that it is impossible to get any large words put
down.
And I have taken to playing all sorts of wild combinations of letters
against RobotCoupe (as I call it), even if it is a wild guess that it
might be a word. Not a talent applicable to playing in real life, but
I have seen some really weird new words go by and made great points
off of them.
