      @betterlate1-0 We're specifically discussing what actually happens and should happen in the event of a tie on this new version.

        @haftoplay No, but robots aren't in the Players List, just humans are there. Good luck!

              @betterlate1-0 They've never been in the player list on new version, only in list of posted games list if 'show robots' is checked. Only time they were in player list was on old version in robot rooms. Now, they all seem to post 20/0 games and it's impossible to match them directly. Perhaps a bit more flexibility is needed here. I used to occasionally practice my speed scrabble skills against them in short, unrated games. Maybe removing robots from the main room and bringing back the robot room with full player list would be a good idea. Would save confusion and give people proper matching options for their preferred time, rated/unrated etc. Alternatively, we could keep them in the main room, but add them to the player list. Would be best to put them below the regular player list with a generic icon and clearly marked as 'Robot1, Robot2' etc. Sorry for taking things slightly off-topic, this probably deserves a separate thread.

                @dan-mitchell I have not noticed since became V2 but they were in the list in beta because I could not tell if it was a bot or human. Stopped looking so if removed I was not aware. But, thanks for clearing that up for me

                  @betterlate1-0 Most of what I just said doesn't really apply anymore anyway. I was just exploring the new practice mode properly for the first time. It's actually pretty comprehensive and probably the best place to play robots. You can't play rated games though which I guess makes sense as you could just play level 1 robots. Sidenote: also noticed that the Super Lexulous board isn't available on v2 version (for practice games that is, it's still an option for email games).

                          @haftoplay I agree, this doesn't seem right. What I have observed is that in case of the rare tie, the game tells both players "you won" ... but I think the higher rated player going in loses points and the lower one gains points. Is it possible that this is what happened?

                            Anyone know why my stats for average word score and average game score never change? I've written to the developer at least four times over the years, but they only answered once to tell me they'd get back to me. That was a year or more ago. Everything else updates: highest word score, highest game score, longest bingo, overall score; it's only the word and game averages that never do.
