      @lexulous I'm playing the UK version but the two letter help is the US version - used to be okay but seems to have changed.

        @Helen-Smith That is not being offered as of now. We shall consider this suggestion or maybe has a list of players who have played good moves in the puzzle. What do you think?

        @lexulous I like the current set up as it gives you something to aim for. If possible, it would be nice to see a few other moves that have also been good after seeing the AI move. I like to look at the AI move even if I've beaten it. It is always fascinating to see the different moves which can be made on one board.

          I've been playing the practice game and today (on two different computers and two different browsers) the new game won't reload. I just see this blank screen. Any ideas?

            @lexulous It's interesting to see the stats of the top ten ranked players, but they are in another universe. Why not (also) show me the NEXT ten above me with their ratings so I know how far I have to go to move up in rank?

              @lexulous Just recently you can't re-arrange the tiles in your rack - they skid around and won't arrange in the order you are trying to place them.

                    For the last several weeks, to place a tile, you need to set the tile one space under the square you want & then it will slide up into place. More recently, the tiles are disappearing altogether if you move them about on the board AND the blanks retain the letter you 1st assigned to them. They often will not become blank again even after recalling all tiles- they stay stuck as that letter you first chose.

                      @jean-pearse I am in the same spot as you. I believe it has to do with Adobe Flash not being supported any longer. If there is a solution that has already been posted, please repost it!

                                    @lexulous I love the feature that the play button turns green when a word is valid... to have that feature in the regular lexulous game would be FANTASTIC!

                                      @Pangloss I beat the best score often. An example today: Score to beat OKA 10. Best score AILERON 21. I put the same word (AILERON) and scored 59 by putting it in a different place. I often find 7 and 8 letter words which were not found by the setter, so obviously add on the bonus to the score. It has taken me five months to rise from 20th to 6th on the US dictionary site.

                                        @Pangloss It was the best move so far. If you beat it, you are the best move so far. The machine can only compute what its algorithms allow and they don't take account, it seems, when you place tiles that allow words to be read in say three or four different directions. But who am I to say?

                                        @nell-nelson "Best move so far" is different than "best move." There can only be one "best move."

                                          @jenny-hornsey Best score wasn't the question, and my question was rhetorical - it was "best move. There can be many, many best scores, but by definition, there can only be one "best move" at a given time.
